Hi bfwmomof3!! Yes, I agree with you. I think we got behind when we were out of town this week, and she had a difficult time. I started the prunes again today and she has already gone twice! :) ...

Hi bfwmomof3!! Yes, I agree with you. I think we got behind when we were out of town this week, and she had a difficult time. I started the prunes again today and she has already gone twice! :) ...
Thanks for the replies. I know I used to give my son (who is now four) prunes on a regular basis when he went to cow's milk because I was afraid he would get constipated. I did that until his...
My baby was EBF until a year old. She did not take to solids well... and I didn't worry about it b/c I knew she had everything she needed from BM. Finally around a year old she started picking up...
djs.mom - Thanks for the reply! I did try solids with her around 7-8 months, but she had NO interest. She acted like all she wanted was breastmilk and I was fine with that since I knew it was...
OK... so here is a quick update and hopefully you guys can help me a little again! I am down to five and sometimes only four pumpings a day. I have plenty of breastmilk still, but I'm not in pain...
OK.... so glad that I posted this question and am getting these answers/responses. I JUST dropped one pumping a day on Sunday... and have been doing that for these past four days. So, I'm glad to...
OK... so just to make sure I'm understanding correctly... even though she is only eating solids (pureed foods twice per day)... it's OK to go ahead and stop the breastmilk? She will get enough...
Hi - it's me again with another question. To refresh your memory.... my daughter just turned one year old this past weekend. I have been EP-ing for a year now. She has only gotten breastmilk. I...
OH... Another question I had was.... since she isn't eating more solids... wouldn't it be bad for her to go to cow's milk fully at a year? She isn't getting any calories from food.... and it seems...
Thanks for your input! My LO is almost a year old (later in March) and still is just so iffy on the solids. Sometimes she'll take pureed food and sometimes shows no interest. Just this morning she...
My daughter just turned 11 months old. She has always been a milk baby and not that interested in solids. She has ONLY ever gotten breastmilk and when I tried to introduce solids around 7-8 months...
Hey guys... here's a quick update! Things have gotten a little rocky again. I had my period a second time finally in February.... which came about 2-3 weeks late. I'm still pumping seven times a...
Hey! Here's a quick update and I have a question too! I have been pumping usually seven times per day. Every now and then I might only get six in (if it's an extra busy day or I have to be out of...
Hey! Just re-read your responses and here is a quick update. I have increased my sessions per day.... so far I'm getting seven in a day and I aim for eight when I can. I'm a SAHM, but I have my...
bfwmomof3 - Thanks for your reply. I'm still going back and forth between the old and new PISA.... and I really think they are both equal in suction, so I think I'm starting to rule that out as an...
Wow... OK, you guys gave me some good info. This is where I am today..... I called our local store about a pump rental and it was super expensive in addition to having to buy a kit to go with it...
Thank you so much for your responses. I didn't think solids were too important... so I was glad to hear that is what you guys think.
OK... so as far as my pump. I have the Medela Pump in Style...
I have been EPing for eight months now. I wanted to breastfeed terribly, but due to poor advice from my LC... I used a nipple shield and supplemented (with breastmilk) bottles and I believe my...
Thank you so much for the comments. I am still trying... but nothing new has happened yet. I'm doing my best to NOT give up... but this is so hard. I don't understand why she will not latch. ...
Actually, someone just suggested that to me.... and I think I should try it. I'm willing to try anything to get her back to the breast!
Hi - I hope I can be a little bit of help. I am currently still struggling to nurse my 3.5 month old.... but I have gained a lot of info during this time and have been given a lot of advice on here...
Yes, both IBCLC's that I have met with basically have had no other options. One LC I have been in contact with a lot during this process and the last time I saw her, about two weeks ago, just...
Hi! Yes, I am still desperately trying. I feel like we might be slowly making some progress. She is VERY comfortable at the breast.... she has loved falling asleep there while being rocked, she...
I am EPing and bottle feeding my daughter. She was born at 7 lb, 13 oz. At her two month check up, she weighed 11 lb, 2oz... and the doctor said she was in the 40-something percentile and that was...
Hi - I am new here and hope that a few of you have some input or advice on this. My daughter is 13 wks old and has never EBF. I have been pumping. It started in the hospital... we had a very good...
