Thanks for all the advice earlier! Makes me feel better that things seem normal so far! We do nurse to sleep almost exclusively, although sometimes she will nurse, sleep for 15 min or so, then have the cute "awake" period. At the end of that she either nurses to sleep again or falls asleep on her...

Well, my little Monkey is almost 5 months old and after some initial typical problems (thanks for all the help!), bfing has been going great! Until now that is... I started work when she was 12 wks old and at first was pumping an easy 8-10oz in the am, another 6-8 in late morning, and another 6...

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...

I'm sure there are tons of possible explanations for this behavior, but I just need some reassurance that it's probably not a low supply issue and some ideas of what it could be. :) My 15wk old if directly breastfed when at home, and bottle fed EBM at daycare. The past few days she has been...

Madi (5.5wks) nurses almost constantly all evening, which I understand is normal. However, she seems to get little milk from this (no audible swallowing sounds, no "milk stupor"). I figure this is b/c of both her constant nursing and evening slowdown of production. Due to soreness, etc before...

So, Madi is now 5 wks old, and you were all right....we are "over the hump" and bfing has gotten much better. Thanks to all that replied with help on the latch issue. It's still not perfect, but better. I found that I needed to pay more attention to angles....the angle of my nipple in her mouth,...

He leido el libro "doctor Lino Tomasen, el poder invisible de curar" y me parece muy importante que se conozca sobre este doctor, que resuelve casos difíciles, solo con sus manos. El libro lo obtuve en: www.poder-de-curar.com

Hi, I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm 37 years old and 21 weeks pregnant with my first baby. I've been reading m.k.p for the last year or so. I've just started to read this group because I'm the sort of person who likes knowing all sorts of information and perspective _before_ I need them! I...

Hi Cheryl, I've been lurking here for about three years, and I ve been looking for a good excude to start posting. My son is almost 17 months old, but at 4 months, he was exactly like Jaden. He was never the best sleeper, but he made constant progress, and by three months he was sleeping 5 or...

Mrs. Bottle: "I don't want to breastfeed because it is embarrassing to breastfeed baby in public." Mrs. Breast: "If you wear the right clothes you can breastfeed without exposing your breasts, in fact nobody will even notice that you are breastfeeding." Mrs. Bottle: "Putting the baby on the...

Hi there. I have a DS who is almost 8 weeks old. Since he was 3 weeks, I've pumped his lunch so DH could give it to him. Over the last week or so he's been eating more at that feeding -- 5-6oz. However, in one pumping session, double pumping using a Medela pump-in-style, I tend to only get about...

I have been wondering about a few foods. Oops! I forgot to mention that she is still breastfed several times a day - usual schedule would be: first thing in the morning, to fall asleep for her nap, to go to sleep at night, and 3 or 4 times a night. I also don't know when I can start eating...

Hi! I wasn't getting anything through so I asked my ISP for help and they think they may have fixed whatever was broken. If you see this original post, would you respond to the newsgroup? I would really like if any/many people see this. Thank you! -- -- Vicki Married DH May 21, 1995

My dear mother oh so kindly mailed me a newspaper article about an anti-cosleeping study published in The Lancet, which I understand to be a highly respected British medical journal. Has anyone seen this study? Is it a decent study, a lousy one, somewhere in between? I threw away the article in...

While this is an interesting question, I think you are asking in the wrong places. First of all, the pregnancy newsgroup is primarily frequented by those who are pregnant, and therefore not yet (or no longer) feeding an infant. And the breastfeeding newsgroup has very, very few readers who are...

i recently started reading _fresh_milk_ by fiona giles. wow, what a cool book! i learned about it here (i think, could have been another one of the "mommy newsgroups" that i read). thank you to whoever it was that mentioned it. anyway, since i am reading this book about breasts and nursing,...

i can't stand it anymore. i have to tell! saturday i was tired. and sunday i was tired. really, really tired. so on the way in to the supermarket i stopped at the dollar store and picked up a pregnancy test. i didn't expect it to come up positive. i'd been really tired and taken a test about 6...

Hi everyone, I used a pump fairly often with my oldest as I was working part time and did a lot of evening meetings and stuff. But when my second was small I quit my job and a few months later I dusted off my pump and donated it to Goodwill. I don't need to pump anymore and I don't miss it! But...
