hi is white raw egg is good for baby specially in milk.can we give raw egg to 1 year baby?

My son is 6 weeks old today. He was a little early (37+4) and small (5lb 13oz), after he had got over his jaundice he fed frequently, every 2 hours or more often. He ate even more than this between 10 days and 2 weeks, presumably the first growth spurt, then over the next three weeks he started to...

oht... I refuse to believe this is colic. I think Alena's hit a growth spurt. My milk is flowing like a fast river right now and this monkey is so fussy I barely get any sleep. however everyone around me is saying that she's got colic and that I should stop feeding her every time she cries. well,...

My left side has been hurting for the last three days -- but I didn't really investigate until today since I'm getting kicked, squeezed and bitten regularly by DD. Nope, it's a lump. I bought the Thermacare heat packs at the drug store -- the air-activated ones advertised for menstrual cramps...

My son nursed to sleep every night, and couldn't fall asleep without nursing. I ended up nightweaning (other than going to bed) when he was one or two years old (it's all a blur) and it was hard on all of us -- but I was going insane from lack of sleep as he'd wake up every hour or two and want to...

When my sister's sons were born, I combined my work as a comedian with my web design capabilities to build them unique websites. They've been so popular, that she suggested I offer my services to other new parents. Basically what I did with my nephews' sites was to incorporate their pictures into...

Last night our 4 1/2 month baby cried so hard in the car that he started choking. I knew something was wrong while I was driving because he just suddenly stopped crying. Thank goodness his grandma was sitting in the back seat with him. She said something was wrong and I needed to pull over. He...

I am having a problem with supply. My son was born 3 weeks early and is now 8 weeks old. I have been having problems breastfeeding from the beginning. Know problems are high palette and weak sucking. The hospital grade pump is stronger than he is. I have been on Fenegreek and Blessed Thistle and...

The Moo has a cirular thing on his arm, about the size of a 5p bit, (dunno what that is in American, sorry) It is in exactly the same place as a scabies track he had but that was treated back in November. The outside of the circle is a bit scabby and the inside was bumpy. The inside is now smooth...

We've determined that Pillbug drinks 20 oz. during the day, so that's what I need to pump daily. I can usually get 3-4 oz. per 8-minute session. If I go to 10 minutes, not much more comes out. That means I need 5 to 6 pumping sessions per day. My friends, and the websites and books, say...

Hi everyone! I've been lurking here for quite some time, and have a moment to post an intro. I may be asking lots of questions! My name is Lissie, and my DS was born on Sept. 7th. He was 8 pounds 4 ounces at birth - I had a long/difficult labor, with some complications. I had hoped to have ...

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...

I love nursing. I love my baby. I love that I have this great relationship with Ollie. I don't want him to wean anytime soon. OK, that disclaimer out of the way... I'M GOING ****ING NUTS TODAY. Ollie just won't eat or drink anything other than breastmilk, straight from the tap. One jar of...

My nearly 7 month old daughter Emily is still on ebm, but will have to make the switch to formula as our supply will be running out in a matter of days. All has seemed well, although she seems so small! Just the other day, a friend of ours brought their 6 wk old over and he is 12 lbs. He started...

My friend, let's call her Linda, is 7 months preggers. She didn't really bf her first (now 3), and has just told me that she's not going to "bother" cause it's too much trouble and she can just chuck the bottles in the dishwasher anyway. And her hubby can therefore feed baby. She's not going to...

Well, it's the new year and it's time to update the birthdays. So, anyone who didn't get a greeting last year or is new to the group, and would like a birthday greeting, either post the information to this thread or email me (just take out "GoAwayWorm" from my address). :-) -- Brigitte aa...
