@mercystreet: Why do you have to add cold bm to cold bm? Will it go bad if it's fresh being added to cold in the fridge? I have been swirling the bottle to mix the fat back in then I add the fresh bm...

Big help!! Thanks!!

Last time my DD didn't latch well, and I didn't understand enough about bfing to realize that in the first week a baby should nurse non-stop. I didn't get into see a LC until...

First off I want to say that you need to keep in mind there are healthy babies at every percentile. Is your doctor using a weight chart specifically for breastfed babies? Because babies who are...

I am currently at home on maternity leave with my DS who is now just over two months. I wanted to start pumping to have a little stash for when I need to leave him with DH or a sitter if I need to go...

Some of the nursing tops available allow you to cover up quick if baby pops off, you can quickly cover the exposed nipple lol. They also allow for extremely discrete nursing, most people won't even...

This makes me so angry. My dentist on every time I am in tells me not to night nurse, and to quickly night wean to prevent cavities. Bfing does not pool milk around the teeth like it would if a...

I took the pills, and you take enough and keep taking it until your sweat and uring smell like maple syrup. It's also the same type of smell you would have if you eat a lot of curry as fenugreek is...

I agree with the PPs. Heat and massage. It sounds crazy, and I thought it was but my grandmother told me to take a wide tooth comb and essentially comb my breast from chest to nipple, and use the...

The prescription you will want is called domperidone. I got it from my GP. I had to take 30mg-3 times a day. It took about 2 weeks to work, but I did notice a big difference in my supply. I also...

Thanks for the kind responses. I'm excited for her to have a sibling, she loves playing with her friends and their siblings, so I know she will welcome one. It's just a hard transition, I think...

My DD is 19 months, and I am 10 weeks pregnant. She has always been a bad sleeper and we co-slept and she nursed all night long. I just couldn't handle it anymore and started....I almost can't say...

When your 18 month old alternates between nursing, taking "sips" and bites of apple and says "ahhh yummy!"

Elizabeth Pantley's No Cry Sleep Solution has the pantley pull off, where when the sucking becomes fluttery you gently unlatch. And yes they will protest, and you unlatch againn and again, and again....

I never had sucess in a moby, couldn't figure that out either. However, when I switched my DD to the Ergo, it was much easier to nurse. I just loosen the shoulder straps, and slide her down and...

I have a wonderful almost 17 month DD, who loves nursing. She now says "Nurse" when she wants to nurse, and says "mamma Nurse, want it" which I think is hilarious.

When I started nursing I knew...

Omg. I am so there. My DD who is just over 16 months has started saying "nurse" and "mamma nurse!" When she demands it and if I say wait she pulls down my shirt and tries to dive in! I will be...

I noticed the best increase taking domperidone and fenugreek and pumping. Weaned off the pump and fenugreek as it gave DD loose poops and still take the dpd.

I agree with PP. Bad advice from GP. First of all there are healthy kids at all weight percentiles. My DD has been at the 25th percentile all along and she is now 15 months and 20 pounds. My DD...

I am in the same situation. DD is 15 months, waking up shreiking every 30-90 minutes, cutting new teeth every week (last week 2 molars and a front bottom tooth). I too can count on one hand the...

What a touching story! I think that's a great way to end a beautiful nursing relationship. My DD is 14 months, and I hope she makes it as long as your DD. Congratulations!

My DD was nursing every 1-3 hours. Usually closer to every hour. At 14 months we nurse on demand when we are together, and she nurses just as frequently. I don't think there is a "normal" amount of...

This looks great. Can't wait to see it. Finally something that will be pro-bfing in the mainstream media!

Has anyone out there had sucess using this for fussiness caused by teething?

Thanks!

I have been told about these amber teething necklaces. My daughter wakes up constantly from teething and the other moms at my LLL meeting suggested trying this.

I know there is a mom on here...
