Thank you so much mamas! <3 For sharing your experiences & kind words. I will continue offering :)
Of course after writing this, today he actually nursed a lot!

I tend to forget they can nurse...

Hi,

I know it's normal to feel somewhat sad when our lil ones are growing up & starting to nurse less...but how sad do you really get?

My DS will be 2 yo on Tuesday! And he's slowing down on...

Just wanted to let you know you're not alone. My DS is exactly the same way! (2 yo)
All the advice above sounds good. We do some of these as well. I cannot leave him tho,..he has to leave me. So...

Once in a while when my DS requests to switch sides he will say "buuuh-bye" and wave to the breast he's leaving. Cracked me up the first time he did that.
Also, occasionally in the middle of...

So true...better juice than other interventions. Good to hear...hope my son reacts the same :)

Thank you so much for the feedback! My DS might not be drinking enough water....especially like PP mentioned...the fiber could be working against us. But then again...he definitely is drinking a lot...

He's having very irregular bowel movements and is also constipated. Im thinking there might be an emotional aspect involved, meaning poops are scary for him. Ever since he started solids he's had...

Congrats!! Great accomplishment!!

Just saw this post....and just "liked" it. :)

Lovin this support group! Lol
My 13 month old is the same! Although, he's a little bit better at night about not staying latched on ALL night....i stiil cant really sneak away...he wakes up within...

Thank you mommas for the feedback! :)
I guess I was just sad he was sick again, since it wasn't too long ago he had a bit of a rough cold. But already this one isn't as bad. Already getting better....

Hi,

Just curious because my DS is sick.... again! :( This is probably his 4th cold now. I feel so bad for him, watery eyes, runny nose, congested...which obviously makes nursing harder too.
He...

Hi everyone!

Thank you so much mommas for all your feedback! This definitely helps. You each brought up such good points. As some of the first few PP mentioned, about just dropping or changing the...

I'm thinking maybe he might need more facts/science to POSSIBLY convince him. Maybe I could print/email him links from WHO. I do have a feeling though that it's mostly being concerned about what...

Hi,

So before I knew anything about breastfeeding, my DH had asked how long I was going to nurse our DS. In hindsight, I really didnt know anything about breastfeeding except for things I had...

Congrats to you too sk1718 and TRH610!! :)
Great accomplishment!!!!

Not sure if it's the same. I bought it in a health food store (similar to whole foods) in the skin/hair section.

I think I remember reading that grapefruit seed extract oil helps also.

HTH :)

Hi,

I agree with PP's. Just wanted to let you know you're not alone. I have the exact same issue..funny..my pre-pregnancy weight was also 118 but now I've been at my all time lowest as well..about...

Thanks mommas!! :)

Hi,

I get the exact same thing on my right nipple. I agree with PPs that most of the time it is due to latch...or shallow latch. I get a blister every time my DS is teething...never fails. Warm...

Hi!

Just wanted to share :)
My DS just turned 1 yr. Im so excited to have reached my initial goal! It's going great and he's still nursing like a champ! I don't really have a 2nd goal in...

So me!

WoW!! So relieving to hear I'm not alone! DH and I just had...

How much water should a 10 month old be getting?

TIA!

Glad to know I'm not the only one...lol! I had a notebook too for the first couple of months but then I got a notepad app on my phone. At the end of each month I email it myself to keep as memento...
