Family Forum / Pregnancy / Breastfeeding / June 2004

My son is 8 weeks old and breastfeeding is still painful. I just got
over mastitis for the 2nd time but I don't think that's causing the
pain. My nipples hurt and when my son latches on and sucks it feels
bruised and it's painful. He eats almost every hour, so I'm not sure

Do you use them?  At what age?  Does your child like them?  What type?

What advice would you give to someone who is contemplating it?  I'm most
interested in answers from those who have BTDT.

I have a horror story.  My one month old son woke up the other night
with a fever of 103F.  I immediately rushed him to the hospital.
While I was there the ER wanted to start an IV, they tried to
catheterize him (sp) for the urine sample.  No success.  Poked him 6

My 2 week old baby girl has been pooping like crazy since past 4 days.
She poops at least  8 -10 times in a 24 hour period. She passes a lot

Happy 2nd Birthday to Jean's (luil) S.!
I hope you had a wonderful day!  :-)

I have mentioned this before but it is getting really.....just really
taxing. It is taxing because that's all I can do, all day, is clean up

everywhere. I have about 5 waterproof pads and I can't keep them washed- I

DD is 5 days old.  Milk came in on day 2-3.  For some reason, milk was not

I saw an LC and she wanted me to pump and give DD pumped milk to get her to

My 12 month old son has suddenly gone off his food. He keeps puking
everytime I try to feed him, and I dont know why. He is OK with his milk.
I give him Farleys cereals. I have tried giving him rice and veg, but is

This was filmed when Moo boy was about 4 mths old.  It took all
afternoon and he breastfed pretty continously throughout so I'd be
surprised if they managed to edit it all out.
You will have to live in the ITV west region to get it though.

was just wondering if I can feed the baby milk that was pumped with the pump
not being sterilized but only washed with dishsoap? Or is a nearly 3 month
old too sensitive for that?
TIA

She had her shots this week and she was measured.  Isabella is 16 pounds
4 ounces and 25 1/4 inches long.  She is around 97%ile for height and
weight, and 50%ile for head (takes after me, I have a small head).  She

It's definately summer because I have once again got some type of poison
on my face, either poison ivy or oak.  I've gotten so incredibly
allergic to it that I contract it off spores in the air, not any real
physical contact. I got it 3 times last summer, all on my face.  I've
