Oy ... what did I say? by [email protected]
So ... I was wandering around the net the other day, and found myself over on the Babycenter.com parenting boards. A rather unusual place .... Lots of moms with lots of questions about fairly straightforward things (and surprsingly few helpful answers from other moms) so ... being the kind of...

Breastfeeding rates and advertising by [email protected]
The other day it occurred to me that maybe the advertising that deters women from breastfeeding isn't primarily that which promotes formula but that instead maybe it's the fault of advertising (and a culture in general) that objectifies women and their breasts. Maybe so many women don't breastfeed...

OT Developmental Questions by Kathy
I realize that babies develop at their own pace, but I have a few areas of (minor) concern with my daughter and I was hoping for some input from others. DD will be 7 months old in 10 days... She can not sit up on her own, and when I do sit her up she is quite wobbly. Sometimes she can stay up...

Book Excerpt: Nursing Your Baby by Amy
I got this book from my aunt, it's by Karen Pryor and Gale Pryor, and is called "Nursing your Baby." It claims to be "fully updated for the 90s" on the cover. I'll let you guys judge... Page 295 - Nursing away from home "Many nursing mothers dislike leaving their small babies behind, no matter...

Not spam, I swear... by Amy
Y'all have known me long enough to know I'm not spamming for this website. I'm genuinely curious. Before I drop $47, has anyone tried this method: http://www.sleepsense.com/ I don't want to spend the money if it isn't worth it. She *says* that it's not an "abandon your baby to cry it out"...

Homo milk by Stormlady
Rhiannon is almost 16 months old now (wow, where did that time go??) and since we have moved back in with my in-laws they have been saying that I should be giving her homo milk now that she is 16 months. She is still nursing, in the morning, nap time and bedtime. Maybe one more during the day and...

Breastfeeding not medically necessary by Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward
So says my insurance company, having rejected a claim from a specialist at the Faulkner Breast Centre who tried a procedure to open my milk pores to enable me to breastfeed my newborn four months ago. I am outraged and helpless.

9 month ish roll call by teapot
Moo boy is asleep in my lap after a good feed so excuse typos. Nights are on and off, more off than on as he has just cut a top tooth and has a cold. I tried to cut down on night feeds but as he is not feeling well I am back to on demand, every 3 hrs last night which is an improvement. 'This...

No AF at 14 months - but wanting to TTC #2 - any advice? by Cathy
Hi all, I know this is not really unusual, but at 14 months I still have no AF. Until 2 months ago I thought it was a bonus - now I am not so sure. DD is on solids full on - somedays I don't know where she puts it all! And she generally nurses 3 times a day, although lately the lunchtime one has...

Not co-sleeping by Irish Marie
I just wanted to take a straw poll of those that did/do and didn't/don't co-sleep. My dh is a barman so he always stinks of passive smoke after work, he also smokes the occasional cigar so he sometimes smells of smoke even when not working. So based on that I don't think that it would be wise to...

Help with a heavy baby? by Mr. Nobody
Hi all ... we're the parents of a beautiful breast-fed 10-month old boy, Jason, who's, um, quite a bit heavier than the norm. Would you believe 44 pounds as of yesterday? (His pediatrician isn't too worried about his growth since two months ago, but she hasn't seen him since he had his 9-month...

Breastfeeding as contraception? by Lina
How long (or) can you use breastfeeding as reliable contraception? IIRC, it was 6 months as long as you're exclusively breastfeeding. Is that correct? -- Lina Alena born July 1st, 2003 www.maternalinstinctscanada.com

It's not worth getting angry over! by Lina
This morning I logged into my old support group of moms due the same time as I was. Their babies are younger or around the same age as Alena. Almost all of them are feeding their babies rice cereal already!!!! Their pediatricians told them not until 3-4 months, but they're doing it any way!!! I'm...

Banana-pillar by Phoebe & Allyson
Scheduling couldn't be worked out for tomorrow, so Grandma and Grandpa came over this afternoon for the first solid feeding. They wanted to give her banana, and that was fine with us. They were really so much more excited about it than we were, so we just let them have at it. I figured they'd...

All the moms with solids-eating, immobile babies by Phoebe & Allyson
Please send them to our house, so they can convince Caterpillar of the wisdom of eating real food (as opposed to paper and packing peanuts), and the folly of perpetual motion. If any of you would like your babies convinced that they don't need to eat quite so much and might like to move a bit...

OT - Doll House experiences and questions (xpost) by Cathy Weeks
Hi all, When my mom went to dental school (I was nine when she started, 13 when she finished), she bought me a dollhouse kit to work on, because I was nine years old, and it was going to be our first summer apart. This was the summer of 1978, and the kit cost around $75. At nine, I really wasn't...
