Hi, some of you may remember me. I posted here a few years ago when ds was a baby. Dd was born 11/26 and latched on right away. Her latch felt shallow and the maternity nurse told me to do the "nipple sandwich" thing and walked away. I decided this was normal newborn stuff and didn't worry too...

Good morning! Just thought I would share a story about my 5 month son's first real trip! We went to the National Aquarium and Baltimore, Maryland yesterday. The drive there was peaceful, as he slept the entire 2 1/2 hour trip. He was well rested and ready for adventure :) I was amazed at how...

Last weekend I was lying down on my parents bed nursing DS for his nap and my brother came in to see what we were doing. Big, lumbering, fairly obnoxious, 16 year old, 6 feet tall brother. He looked at us and said, "oh, he's having nursies." I found it rather sweet/funny and hope he is learning...

This can't possibly still be from BF at 9 months, can it? My appetite is seriously out of control. I eat everything in sight. I feel hungry a lot, but I admit, I'm just eating because I want to a lot of the time. I think it has a lot to do with stress, I've probably gained 10 lbs since I moved 3...

I was at a client's workplace today (he's a client of ours and we're a client of his), and asked in passing how his wife was doing, and spent the next half hour hearing that she was not well. So I'm going to call her to see if we can get together this week, but I need some suggestions for...

One of my molars broke apart and I am having dentist take care of it (crown/root canal) in a week or two. But right now it is chipped and the big silver filling is exposed. Once in a while I can feel another piece of tooth chipping away. Hole getting bigger. There is a funny taste in...

I am breastfeeding my almost 2 yr old daughter (though, obviously, by now she's not exclusively bf'd) and I have a quick question for those of you who are more familiar with the Rhythm Method of Birth Control than I probably am! AFAIK, you can conceive for only 72 hours per month. Usually around...

So...here's the recipe for banana bread... AND WITH A STARBUCKS TALL VANILLA LATTE IT'S GOOD! BANANA BREAD 2 large eggs 1/4 cup sugar 1 cup smashed ripe bananas

A friend of mine has Generalised Anxiety Disorder, but was not on (and did not require) medication during pregnancy. In case she has a flare-up, can someone give me the details about Effexor and bfing? -- Chookie -- Sydney, Australia (Replace "foulspambegone" with "optushome" to reply) "Jeez; if...

Joey has been using soy formula for the past few months and is now exclusively formula fed. I'm just not making any milk anymore. He's 10 mo old and neither my husband nor I have a history of any food allergies. Is it ok to offer him sips of soy milk as an alternative beverage, just as I might...

It was actually 2.5 weeks ago but I'm just getting around to posting about it. This one went much better than the last one, which had me furious. I just answered their checklist of questions succintly and didn't offer any opinions. Jaden is still at 75% and 90% for weight and height,...

you realise how into breastfeeding you are when you do certain things: i was moving DS's golden books from a shelf in his room to our bookcase and we were reading a few first. most of them were DH's from when he was little (30yrs ago) so i knew all the pics of babies feeding would be with...

hi is white raw egg is good for baby specially in milk.can we give raw egg to 1 year baby?

What is going on? Does teething get worse overnight? DS is taking decent naps during the day(2 naps about 2 hours total--he used to take no naps) but is up all night. All right, I'm exaggerating, but not much! He goes to bed(in his crib) around 7:30 or 8 and comes to bed with me when...

I used them last time with DS but they didn't breathe and I think they made my yeast infections worse, so I stopped using them, but I really needed something. I leaked a lot last time, so I'm looking for something for after this pg. I think cotton ones would breathe better than those...

My computer is buggered so we won't be around for a while as bloke is building us a new one. Should be back in time for the 8 month roll call though. 8 months - wow :-) teapot and the moo boy

Our DS turned 4 in December and has been on a potty strike since September. He was doing really well--telling me he had to go pee and then doing it in the toilet. This was if he was hanging around the house without pants. If I put clothes on him, he would pee his pants as if he thought he had a...

Last month when my period showed up exactly a month after delivery, you all allayed my fears and told me this was no indication that my milk supply was not sufficient. My doctor agreed and based on my son's weight gain and the loads I've been pumping with my wonderful new Avent Isis :) I believe...
