Switching Sides by
Con
How do you know when to switch from one breast to the other? I have a
baby who cannot drain one breast at most feedings. I want to make sure
both sides' milk supply stays up but I also want to ensure my infant
is getting the hindmilk in each breast as well. At first I was just
allowing 10 minutes...

sleepy nurser by

I have a three month old (two month premature) and we are just
starting to get in the hang of breastfeeding. I have been tempted
many times to quit but know how important it is to my preemie. A
couple frustrating issues have just developed: 1) feeding more
frequently now that I am feeding on...

Decongestants? by
concrtslt
I don't know if this is a dumb question or not--but do decongestants such as
Sudafed tend to lessen milk supply? I am wondering because I have a cold
and am hesitant to take anything, but would gladly take them if there is no
risk.

How to prevent thrush? by
concrtslt
My 2 month old DS has an ear infection and is now on antibiotics. I want to
make sure I do everything I can to prevent thrush while he is on the
antibiotics. Any tips? I started eating yogurt, but that was all I could
think of.

Duration of feedings? by
concrtslt
My DS (2 1/2 months) usually nurses for 10-15 min on each side during one
feeding. Starting yesterday he started pulling off at 2-5 minutes. I
thought he was just messing around so I put him back on, and he would suck
for 10 sec and pull off again. Lather, rinse, repeat, he gets mad and
starts...

Frequency of Feedings? by
concrtslt
I just had DS 2 weeks ago, and he nurses roughly every 2-3 hrs, more like 2
hrs during the day, and 3 during the night. Since it takes about 45 min to
an hour per nursing session, the schedule is really grueling! When does the
frequency of feedings go down? I'm just wondering if someone has a...

Pumping and bleeding nipples? by
concrtslt
My 11-month old son has bitten me and drawn blood while nursing a few days
ago. Now I have painful scabs on both breasts. Today at work it really
hurt while I was pumping, and then I noticed one breast had started bleeding
again, and to top it all off, I barely squeezed out an ounce of milk...

Human Milk Banks by
Corinne
Hi, all - I seem to remember some discussion a while back about the
availability of Breastmilk from a Milk Bank, and wondered if anyone else
knows what I'm talking about. I need to know if there's anything in the
vicinity of North Carolina - I've just met a couple who had a baby via a
surrogate,...

Breastmilk for Pinkeye by
Corinne
Hi, all! This last week has been tough for us; DH & I both fought off
a cold bug, but my DD did NOT. She came down with a cold, and had the
nighttime Croupy cough to go with it...we saw the Ped, and she said
it's going around, not to worry, and just to make sure she rested &
got plenty of fluids....

update on being asked to nurse elsewhere by
Corrie
Hi again everyone,
Thanks again for all your notes about my being asked to move to the
back of a store while nursing. A little detective work showed me that
the woman who asked me to move was actually the store manager. I
figured under those circumstances, writing the manager wouldn't do me
any...
