Family Forum / Pregnancy / Breastfeeding / April 2005Newbie
Hi- I've been lurking here for awhile. My first is due May 11th. I'm so glad I've been reading in here, you guys have great information and have even answered questions I never thought about asking! Anyway once the little guy gets here I'm sure I'll have questions, so I just thought I'd say hi and thank you for what I've already learned before I start being a "pest" :).

Like I said this is my first and while I've read books and done research that I can there is nothing like first hand experience. Melissa >> and some of us have never even nursed. >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > Melissa Well, I suppose I can claim some expertise, have had to work with eight different lactation consultants trying to get my daughter to latch correctly and supporting DW while she pumped for a FULL YEAR(!!) so our daughter could enjoy the benefits of breastmilk. (Now 2 1/2, she's healthy, happy, and thriving.) You'll find, Melissa, that this group is a fantastic resource both for information and support. You came to the right place! Richard 30 months later, still thrilled to be Micaela's dad I think it is great to see some dads out there who are actively involved in the bfing of their kids, ok so you may not actually be able to nurse the child but I am sure the dads are invaluable to their partners particularly in those first few weeks when you are still finding your feet. I dont think I would have ever got both my twins latched on in the first month without DHs help!!!

I remember one of mine latching on to Allan and I remember him howling. Tine, Denmark > Welcome! > > Some of us hang around several years after stopping nursing. > > Tine, Denmark Thanks! Well you have the knowledge that people like me need, so it's great that you stick around! Melissa |
