It's understandable that you want more freedom to be able to take care of your other kids and responsibilities. You could try The No-Cry Sleep Solution book.
Her advice was helpful to me. I've tried...

Where do you buy it and which kind is the best? How much do you take?

I bought it in powder form from a site my SIL recommended. My first jar is running low and this time I want to order...

Thank you so much! I think it is the thrush that's causing the pain! My nipples are already sore before I begin pumping. Sore nipples makes it hard to feed him for long sessions as well. The switch...

I'm working to increase supply because the LC says he's not eating enough or gaining fast enough. He's gaining around 3oz per week. She seems to have given up on my milk supply increasing for the...

Getting discouraged! I tried the smaller shield...seems to be less painful, but I can't imagine pumping for 15 min! Ouch!
Sunday I had more milk! I could feel it and LO was swallowing longer at...

After reading Dr Gordon's article "Look at the Baby not the Scale" and talking to some breastfeeding mom friends, I've decided to take your advice and others' to heart! I'm not going to freak out!...

I'll try that. The other shields in my kit are smaller.

And I looked at the WHO weight for age charts and now I am freaked out! At birth LO was on the chart above the 15th percentile--3.1kg or 6lbs 14oz. At 1mo he dropped way below the 3rd...

My LC is an IBCLC. Dh looked online for IBCLCs and she's the only one listed for our area acc. to the link he went to...and she is two counties away! Yes, she is at the hospital and she is a nurse....

Thank you all! I'm now nursing 9-10 times in 24 hrs. That's up from 7-8 plus pumping after 6 if not every feeding. If I nurse more frequently he seems to get the same amount of ounces per feeding per...

My nipples or the aerola?

Thank you! That's hopeful!
I'm using a hospital rental from my IBCLC, a medela. I usually pump after every feeding for 5-10min. Pumping doesn't feel good, but my nipples are really sore from yeast....

When is my milk supply "set"? Since my baby is 12wks now, is it too late to do anything to increase my supply? I've been taking all the herbs, pumping after feedings and not a huge increase....

I just recently thought of this. And I think I would start to be concerned, but only in the last few days as he nears his 3mo mark and still is not up 2lbs from his birth weight. And because of so...

Hello! I'm Jenny, mom to my sweet little 12wk old boy.
We just came home from our 3rd meeting with the LC 2 days ago, and I'm super discouraged!
Our nursing relationship started out pretty good...
