pulling (and vent) by
zeldabee
What does it mean when my not-quite-5-week old pulls back with my nipple
still in his mouth? He does this from time to time. He doesn't seem
uncomfortable, or even especially hungry. I latch him on, he sucks for a
minute or two, then pulls back and wants to keep sucking, which I won't let
him do,...

convince baby to take pacifier? by
zeldabee
My 5 week old son has times when he clearly wants to suck, but doesn't want
to eat, especially after a nursing session in the middle of the night. I'd
really like him to take a pacifier (the only way a finger works is at a
certain angle, and it can be uncomfortable for me after a short while),...

breastfeeding question by
zolw
Hi;
I am a first timer. I am due July 31st. I plan to breast feed, but my
nipples are so sore that I wonder how painful is it going to be for a
baby to suckle on them? They hurt when I touch them (& I am real gentle).
Is breastfeeding painful? How long before I would get used to it? & of
course...

Fontanel as Hydration Indicator? by
Zucca4
I've read or heard in various places that a sunken fontanel signifies
de-hydration. Of course my husband and I lightly touch our darling son's
fonatnel throughout the day and of course it feels slightly recessed at times
and level with the rest of the skull plates at others.
Over the last four...

ot- baby acne vs. contact dermatitis? by
Zucca4
Our little mush has spots all over his face which the doctor says is baby acne.
We've been encouraged to let it run its course and simply wash with warm water
a few times daily- no soaps, creams, etc... However I have been noticing that
the condition is red and exacerbated when our baby is laying...

Reasons for menses early return? by
Zucca4
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...

ot/infant receded hairline by
Zucca4
my little angel has a very odd hairline- receded with large sideburns almost.
anyway, the initial hair seems to be falling out now at five weeks and a new
layer of peach fuzz is growing....will his entire hairline change do you think?
His toddler pals are referring to him as "grandpa" :)

I have been exclusively breastfeeding for the last week now and am very proud

Too much nighttime nursing? by
Zucca4
( I don't think my original subject line was specific enough)
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...
