Hi Everyone, I have an 18month old who I'm ready to wean from BF. During the day he will drink some regular/whole/organic milk and he likes it just fine. He can actually go the whole day without nursing and he doesn't seem bothered or upset by this at all. At night he still wakes up 3-4 times...

My wife is cutting out dairy and eggs to help our gassy baby. Are acidic or spicy foods ok? How about greasy or fried foods? Also, she is starting to feed our baby from a bottle (her milk). How much should he get per feeding if he is less than a month old? She will be returning to work soon...

I don't _want_ to wean DD. In my ideal world we'd continue going until one of us is done. However we've already decided if at one year I'm not ovulating, to wean as we're very anxious to TTC. At almost 10 months now, DD is still a nursing machine. She nurses regularly 3x/ night (the last few nights...

I need to know if it's safe to take Naprosyn. (500mg) I pulled a muscle in my back, and as I'm the only one home with Alena most of the day, Dr. L prescribed this for me to ease the pain. :( Thanks in advance ladies! -- Lina Alena born July 1st, 2003 www.maternalinstinctscanada.com validate the...

Since birth, my 14 mo DD has been waking between 2 and 4 times a night to nurse. Three weeks ago I decided it was time to stop nursing her during the night in the hope that she would start sleeping through. (I am soooo tired.) For the first few nights if she woke before 1am I offered her water...

I just wondered if anyone else experiences the same thing we have going on. DD is almost 17 months and still mostly bf'd. She does not eat a whole lot of anything on a regular schedule although she often grazes on whatever I happen to be eating. Anyway, since we started on solids (around...

Can anyone point me to data on breastfeeding rates in the US - I've got data for the UK and wanted to see how the countries compare. I figure people here might already have found them and I'm feeling lazy. Love Clare, where DS is starting to cruise and DD is mastering the potty....

Wow, you guys make soap with your milk. That is so neat. :) A friend had this idea, which I think is a good one -- freezing some milk for a possible emergency situation with a new baby (rather than having to use formula, if some kind of problem arose and I wasn't able to nurse my newborn). But...

DD is almost 6 months and initially her poops were once every 2 days, mustardy and a solidish consistancy. Then almost 3 months ago she had to go on antibiotics and instantly she started pooping frothy green liquid, several times a day. I didn't worry initially as I know antibiotics can affect...

I'm seriously considering getting a Snuggle Nest ( www.snugglenest.com ) for Lily when she arrives. Curious if any of you have used this product and what your thoughts were. We already have a bassinet and a Pack n' Play (both of which Laszlo refused to sleep in - he slept in his swing for...

Greetings folks: I'm mom to an eight week old boy who is exclusively breastfed. One of the women in my parent/tot group told me this morning that she had read that babies should be introduced to bottlefeeding by this time, to get them used to it. Otherwise if you want to use bottles and expressed...

DD (almost 9 months) now has seven teeth. For the most part, she has been very gentle with me while nursing. Aside from a couple of episodes of clamping down after the teeth came in, followed by mommy's screams, we are doing OK. 2 questions, though... When she nurses, it feels like her teeth...

does anyone know anything about this? I've mentioned on here before that we have taken Nathanael for tests in relation to him having occasional blood in his urine. I've just been phoned by the registrar who took blood at our last visit and one of the tests for clotting took longer than it should...

I don't know if anybody remembers me, but I posted here quite a bit when I was pregnant with Victoria. I was only able to nurse my other two children for a combined total of four months, and I was determined to breastfeed Victoria. I got some excellent input from people here, but what helped me...
