Wendi,

Please do let me know. Clay has only nursed once today so far. I do think he

is weaning. He has also decided that he likes to sleep in his crib. He was

so thrashy while sleeping with us, I put him in his crib (mostly out of

frustration). Well, he slept and slept and slept in that crib. For the first

time since his birth the other night, I slept all night long too! That was

nice. I will continue nursing him until he is done, my thrush is clearing us

which also has helped.

Good luck to your husband on his test. Mine just took the chief exam so

we are waiting to see. He said it was pretty tough. He thinks he at

least got his name right(lol)

We have a queen bed with a twin sidecar. I move down and nurse him then back to

the queen. He sleeps great like that. He doesn't sleep well with us though.

You might want to start asking him if he wants to nurse. That's what I've been

doing because I'm not ready to wean. It's been helping. He's nursed a lot

today. He gets really excited when I ask him to nurse. Anyway I am going to

try fenugreek I just haven't gotten it yet.

Wendi and everyone!

With the thrush I had not been too keen on the nursing since it hurt terribly.

We are resolving that and I am so glad. I think that is a good idea to ask him

if he wants to nurse. I have to remember to do that. Sometimes the day passes

along and I finally remember...hey he hasn't nursed in several hours. I think

my milk supply is dwindling severely now. I am anxious to hear how the herbs

work for you. I tried them in the beginning too and I don't know if I should

go back to them??? Amy swears by fennel I know. I am just trying to follow

his lead. If he is ready to wean, I will be okay with it...I guess! I feel

torn between trying to get my supply back up or not if he is actually weaning.

HELP!

Although doesn't show any signs of weenign I KNEW it would break my

heart when he did want to but I was thinking about it and I have now nursed

him for a year and 2 weeks and I am VERY proud of myself for that. If he

decited to ween (Like I said he's no where near close so maybe if he was I

would feel differntly hehe) Iwill be glad I was able to have this bond with

him for as long as I did and just look foward to nursing the next and all our

fond memorys of it.

Oh BTW did you ever get your pics back from nursing at the beach we

wanna see (well I do anyway)

I really think that you need to decide if you want to keep nursing. Children go

through natural weaning cycles and he might wean if you just let it go. If you

really didn't want to wean you might be sad if he weans. But if you are ready

to wean just see what happens. I just got back from the store with the

fenugreek and will be starting today. I really am not ready to wean him so I am

taking action to make sure it doesn't happen. I'll let you know how the herbs

go. Thanks for all the advice. So far I am loving being on this list.

Everyone is so helpful and supportive.

Amy,

Thanks for remembering about the pictures. I have been lazy and haven't had

them put on disc or anything to show you all. However, my dh just got us a

scanner so be looking for them within the next couple of days. I work all day

tomorrow, so perhaps Tuesday?? Clay has nursed 3 times today already...maybe

not weaning?? I keep following his cues though. We'll see.

Wendi,

Best of luck with the herbs. I am anxiously awaiting your results. Thanks for

the advise. You are probably right about the weaning cycles, etc.

Have you come to the right place. I bet there is about 100 years of experience

hear. Do you have some books? How are you feeling? I am Wendi I am sure you

saw my other welcome so I won't repeat myself. We can definitely help start

throwing out the questions.

introduction

Hi! My name is , and I am 25. I have been married five years to

Adam, who is 27. We are looking forward to the birth of our first child in

about five weeks. I plan to breastfeed, but I have very little support

outside my husband, so I am looking for other people to help me along!

Thanks!
