Nursing while sleeping by Phoebe & Allyson
Well, I tried nursing Caterpillar lying down. Neither one of us were very satisfied with it, but I'm not sure how much of that was novelty, and how much was inherent to the setup. Do any of these things change / get better / go away with practice? -- If she only eats on one side, she wakes up...

Caterpillar has a drink of water by Phoebe & Allyson
When she has her bath, Caterpillar (4 1/2 months) gets her own two-handled cup to play with. Otherwise she wants to play with the cup I use to wet and rinse her with. I usually give her some clean water in it to play with, and it goes over the side and over her chin and everywhere but in her...

cutting down number of formula feeds by Phoebe & Allyson
Anne Rogers wrote: (I send him with one bottle of formula and one bottle of ebm, he doesn't usually drink the ebm, so it gets used later in the day whilst I pump to get the next days spare bottle) Why on earth would you give him the bottle while you're pumping? (Sorry if I'm not...

Tetnus Shot?? by Phoebe & Allyson
Michelle Podnar wrote: Well all, I got bit by a squirrel today!! DH was feeding him, so I decided to try and he missed the food and bit my finger. I go in tomorrow for a tetanus shot (Does that have any effect since I am still BF?) Ouch! Are squirrels rabies carriers in your area? ...

Caterpillar has a cold by Phoebe & Allyson
She was a little stuffy for the last day or two, and now has a runny nose. She's been coughing because of all the drool collecting in her throat, but now she's coughing more because her nose is draining. Ah-mah says it's because we don't dress her warmly enough and don't change her the moment she...

Now I have Caterpillar's cold by Phoebe & Allyson
Bleah. I got through an entire pregnancy without being sick, and am all out of practice. Vaporizer and hot water with honey and lemon and ibuprofen and DM cough syrup and cough drops are not cutting it. I'm dying for a dose of Sudafed, but I really don't want to risk a supply dip...

Caterpillar's first solids by Phoebe & Allyson
Along the same line as Kate's Bug and the index card. Caterpillar usually "reads" the newspaper with me, so I gave her a piece of junk mail (a heavy weight oversize postcard) this afternoon while I read the good stuff. A few minutes later, I realized that she wasn't tearing it up so much...

Help for mom w/ PPD? by Phoebe & Allyson
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...

9 month wbv by Phoebe & Allyson
Our pediatrician's office called yesterday, to remind us of an appointment we weren't aware we'd made - apparently the ditzy receptionist had her March calendar open when we were making an April appointment. (We'd shifted scheduling so Caterpillar could get her osteopathic manipulation at the...

Teething and Temperatures by Phoebe & Allyson
Nothing visible, but Caterpillar is working hard - gnawing, rubbing gums, drooling (although she's been drooly for months), and running a low-grade fever (forehead is warm when kissed, but not hot). Hyland's Teething Tablets work remarkably well (we aren't big believers in homeopathy, but I don't...

Caterpillar had a playdate (long) by Phoebe & Allyson
We went over to play with Caterpillar's separated at birth twin (born on the same day, also has two moms) today. The babies seemed mostly uninterested in each other, so this was more for the moms to get to know each other. If it weren't for having same-aged kids, I suspect we wouldn't hang out...

Growth spurt or just stress? by Phoebe & Allyson
Caterpillar had a no good, horrible, very bad day today. Woke up around 8:30, nursed on both sides, got changed, into the carseat, off to have her ears checked (she can hear!). Big poopy diaper around 10am, right on schedule; didn't want to nurse after (unusual -- she usually eats every 2...

Baby Acne & Allergies by Phoebe & Allyson
Poor Caterpillar (7 weeks) is horribly broken out. She has been for several weeks, and I suspect she will be for several more weeks. My copy of Sears' The Baby Book says that baby acne onsetting before 2 weeks and spreading into the hair and down the neck can be a sign of allergy. Hers didn't...

Here we go... by Phoebe & Allyson
Jodie wrote: she asked, "Well, do you think your milk just isn't satisfying her anymore?". May just be a generational thing - I took Caterpillar to visit two clients in their 80's, and both said how terrible it was their milk wasn't good enough to bf. Heck, Allyson's mom, who's not yet 60,...

Bre@st Preference by Phoebe & Allyson
I put Caterpillar on the slow-flow side last night, and fed her until she refused to latch anymore. (She ate about as long as she normally does on the fast-flow side, but I suspect she got a lot less milk.) Sure enough, 5 minutes later, she started making "hungry" cues. So I put her back on that...

Nursing in sling by Phoebe & Allyson
I finally figured it out. I've been trying to get the hang of the snuggle hold, since she likes to be more upright. So I put her in, and we walked around for a little bit trying to get us both comfy. Eventually I noticed her nose was right at nipple level, pulled up my shirt, and shoved her on. ...

More WOH questions by Phoebe & Allyson
I know there have been a lot of pump-related questions lately, but I can't help myself. Taking Caterpillar to work isn't working for anyone - she gets hot and grouchy, I can't concentrate, and we spend most of our time packing, traveling, and unpacking. So the new plan is that I'll work mornings...

3 year check-in by Phoebe & Allyson
Caterpillar turned 3 on May 31st. Most recent pic at http://tinyurl.com/lzdaj. She still nurses as much as I let her, which is sometimes two sides a day and sometimes more. I think she's gone one day in her entire life without nursing. She started preschool the week before she turned 3, and...
