My Ds is 18 mo, and I have been  using the Mirena for about a year.  I have
not had a period, since it was placed.  The last two weeks, I have

My 11-month old son has bitten me and drawn blood while nursing a few days
ago.  Now I have painful scabs on both breasts.  Today at work it really
hurt while I was pumping, and then I noticed one breast had started bleeding
again, and to top it all off, I barely squeezed out an ...

The story of the nurse-in protesting Delta airline's actions got a
couple of inches on the front page and more in the international
section. I take issue with some of the 'facts' (the definition of
lactivism mostly) but hey, it's being reported and that's what matters.

In need of some advice - My six month old has been co-sleeping with me

ago with my first child who I nursed until she weaned herself at 21
months. Three weeks after she weaned herself I gave birth to my second
DD who is now 20 months old.

DD is an experienced traveller  now - a total of 8 flight segments (2
trips). The first trip at 9-11 weeks she was great. She slept most of

My ten and a half month old baby finally slept through the night! Yay!
After months and months of up to half a dozen nursings throughout the
night, she's finally making it out to 6 am before waking up, being

I've been lurking here for many years, and now I have a baby and need
help.  My daughter was born at 33 weeks 1 day.  She's now nine days old
