Ovarian Pain... by
AlenasMom
Okay... since I'm pretty certain I'm not pregnant... why am I getting these
horrible pains in my ovaries and light cramping. (It feels like it did when
I was pregnant with Alena!!!)
Any ideas???

Solids for medication by
AlenasMom
I have to give Alena a pill called Lausec (I think I spelled that right)
for her reflux. The only way I can give it to her is in some form of a
solid (like rice cereal or fruit... or something.)
Is this going to cause her allergies and problems because she's only 5
months old??? I sat and cried...

Nursing while pregnant. by
AlenasMom
I think I might need some links about this...
*blinks hard* I'm in denial, and too scared to take a test... but can
someone reassure me that this will be okay for Alena and a new baby if
that's the case...
What I thought was just nerves may indeed be morning sickness....

Flu and breastfeeding. by
AlenasMom
Both Alena and I are out with the flu, but she's not eating too much right
now. She's really congested and it's hard for her to eat. So in between
lots of sleeping I'm pumping.
Should I pump and dump, or would this milk be okay to store?

Alena's 6 months update (With a Hale's look up request) (X-posted) by
AlenasMom
Well, the little monkey isn't so little anymore! She's 18lbs now!!! It's so
hard to believe that half a year ago she was only 5 lbs and could fit into
my forearm! Now she's taller than most of my torso! She's so long that she
wears 12 mos. clothing just because of length!!!
She's still teething but...

Should I complain? by
AlenasMom
I was nursing Alena in a restaurant in Toronto over the weekend and was
told that if I didn't stop, I would be charged $500.00 by the police!
I don't know who I should talk to. Should I call the manager, or should I
call the owner of the chain?
What do you think.

Hales Look up please. by
AlenasMom
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!

Odd question... by
AlenasMom
What do you do if your baby doesn't have 6 wet diapers in a day? Alena's at
4 and it's 10:30pm... Should I be worried?

Honey questions by
AlenasMom
Can you eat honey while nursing or will the bad things (I don't know what
those are) pass through to the baby?

Going out... by
AlenasMom
Does anyone go out without their babies for dinner or something like that?
How do you work it with exclusive breastfeeding? How can I leave her with a
babysitter and still go out to dinner?
Does it work? I can't imagine doing it right now.
DH wants to go out to dinner, just us (we haven't had alone...

Does this sound like mastitis? by
AlenasMom
My breast is covered in red streaks, it's warmer than the other breast,
sore as hell, and it hurts to the point of tears when I nurse. :*(
What should I do?

Sore nipples (A real post... ^.^) by
AlenasMom
Okay.. Alena's latch is perfect. No biting, but she does clamp down
sometimes.
Now my nipples feel like they've been partially ripped off.
They're really sore and anything touching them hurts!!!
What should I do?

Rant: Early solid feeding by
AlenasMom
I'm getting really sick of people telling me that I should have started
Alena on solids weeks ago... No, I shouldn't have!
One woman who told me this has a baby who is covered in rashes and flaky
skin. He's allergic to just about everything under the sun and she couldn't
breast feed because she...

YAY!!!! 4 month WBV by
AlenasMom
Alena's no longer considered underweight!!!!!!!!!!
She's 14lbs, 26inches long and doing great! She grabbed Dr. L's glasses off
his face, and smiled at us (until jab time).
Dr. L and I talked about CAS again and he thinks I should contact legal aid
as he (and all of Alena's other doctors) feel(s)...

4-month roll call. by
AlenasMom
I'm feeling left out. :D
Alena's doing great! 14lbs, 26" long, and still nursing like crazy!
Is anyone else getting pestered about solids? MIL wants me to feed Alena
turkey and mashed potatoes at Christmas. (It's not happening!)
We're all doing great here!
How about the rest of you?

Funny question... by
AlenasMom
When you're breastfeeding, I know it can take stopping to get AF back, but
if you start the pill, will you get it back for sure?
