Lori
I really need to hear some positive stories. I am so sad. My baby was born
on Dec 14 and nursing has been wonderful. She has never had anything but
BM. I went back to work on Monday, fulltime. I have no choice but to work

Overeating? by
Zucca4
Michael Jude is 10 weeks now and still co-sleeping with us. I nurse him to
sleep each night as it seems to be the olnly way to get him to drift off into
never-never land. I'll deal with getting him to sleep on his own later on I

Erin
After a pretty trying (and noisy) fussy spell between weeks 2-8, my
3-month-old dd has now settled down into a happy baby. What a difference a
few weeks make! Phew ...
I have a sleep question, though: How much is "typical" for a 12 weeker? DD

Jodie
It's official (sniff sniff). My baby is one today! Never in my wildest
dreams did I think we could have made it one year. But we did. And I

DD came with us to the OB office yesterday, and we showed her the baby on
the u/s screen.

consented to this (because I feel that breastmilk is the perfect food
