Eczema issues - any advice? by
Rebecca Jo
Alexander gets pretty bad eczema. It starts on his hands and feet and then
he gets it in the crook of his elbows and behind his knees. Eventually his
cheeks get chapped and it covers his forearms.
We know he has allergy problems. My husband is allergic to a lot of things
so it didn't come as a...

I am looking for an opinion and information!!! PLEASE by
Sole
What are some consequences of not breastfeeding your child?
What are the major reasons why women choose not to breastfeed?
Should it be accepted in public places?
Where can I find U.S. statistics on the subject?
What is a major difference between breast milk and the formula?

Supply and pain question by
Ilse Witch
I have been pumping for DD since she was born, while nursing DS2. He still
nurses once a day, but has taken to solids for the rest of his meals. I
would like him to nurse 2-3 times a day, but he just refuses. As a
consequence, and due to several bouts of flu, my supply for DD is slowly
dwindling....

BF questions Haagan Dazs, baby's travel by
sheree
Both these (possibly silly) questions are concerning influencing my
baby via breastmilk.
First, a BFing mother of 7 told me to eat half a pint of Haagan Dazs
every afternoon, any flavor except chocolate or coffee, and it would
help the baby sleep through the night b/c my milk would be fatter....

nighttime feeding by
stasya
Ok, so I've noticed that my milk supply is really low in the evening.
So I was kind of thinking to myself that geez, that's why babies have
nighttime wakings, they really don't get enough at those lower evening
feedings. And as though to confirm my thoughts, my baby woke up 6 times
last night! Or...

For all Mothers and Grandmothers by
julie MT
Someone send this to me. Bring a joyful tear to my eye, I thought of
all the Mothers and Gandmothers. So this is for all of you to
enjoy!
Before I was a Mom I slept as late as I wanted and never worried
about how late I got into bed.
I brushed my hair and my teeth everyday.

4month checkup and a tooth! by
V.
Madi had her 4 month checkup and shots today, so she's cranky. :( While
waiting for the Dr I let her chew on my hand and I felt a sharp tooth! It's
a lower tooth, barely visible from the front, but definitely there. So that
possible teething behavior turns out to be exactly that.
She's 14 lbs...

Morgan is 2! Time to wean! by
Carol Ann
Well, I've finally hit the 2 year mark and want desperately to wean.
I realized tonite that I really need to have help from someone else for a
few days. Looks like my mother will come in during the evenings to help put
Morgan to sleep so that I don't have to nurse her.
We had cut down BF to just...

red patches by
Jess
I think I know what this is, but I'd like someone else to confirm it for me.
Sproglette's got these rough-ish red patches scattered on her trunk and her
back, and I can't quite figure out what they are. They're slightly raised, a
bit rougher than the skin around and she keeps itching them....

So is this how weaning happens? by
CY
Since the birth of my DS (now age 10 months) I have been gently encouraging
my DD (aged 4) to nurse less. Since she was waking up to nurse more than DS
in the beginning I night weaned her in short order over 3 days. No problem.
We are basically down to first thing in the morning and last thing...

oregonchick
My cycle returned this week, and I'm physically sick from it. I am having
the worst cramps and bleeding I have ever had and I feel drained and weak.
I am afraid to leave the house or sleep in my bed because I haven't found a

Were the pics in this website:

Some people on

are asserting that this woman is using your pics to prove her strange claim
of pregnancy sans uterus.

thrush or teething? by
Linda
My 12 week old DD has been miserable for the last couple of days. A couple
of days ago we were in the car and she woke up and just started crying.
Didn't want to feed, burped a couple of times but was still crying. I
stripped her off and walked her around and after about 30 minutes she calmed
down...

Have milk, but it won't drain by
Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward
Anyone encountered this problem: the breasts are filling up, I can feel
the ants crawling along the side, the baby has been latching on
perfectly (per lactation consultant), yet not a drop of anything is
coming out, and I've had to start feeding her formula. She's four days
old.
I've just rented a...

Sleeping through night - was Aunt Flows Terrific Timing by

Reading through the replies to Amy's post (I hope your Dad is doing ok) I
was wondering if there was any correlation between when AF returned and how
long babies were sleeping at that point. My lactation consultant told me
that breastfeeding was an effective form of contraception while babies...
