That sounds perfect! With my first two, I gave up breastfeeding very

quickly, but the one thing I remembered was being told to make sure the babies

ate equal amounts on both breasts. Well, after my 3rd baby, I did a lot more

research about this, since I was determined to breastfeed him and not give up!

What I learned was the the first few minutes, the babies get the foremilk,

which is really watery, then after the first few minutes, they get the

hindmilk, which is the thick stuff with all the calories. From my experiences

and what I've researched is that it is best to allow them to empty the first

breast, so they get all the hindmilk, then offer the other breast, but they

may only nurse for a few minutes. Another thing is, with breastfeeding

babies(from experience with mine anyway), they don't spend nearly as much time

eating as when they are bottle fed! My first two kids took a minimum of 30

minutes to finish a bottle, both of my 2nd two would be and are done nursing

within 10minutes! Sure makes it easier to get other things accomplished, LOL

And if your baby is having that much 'output', you shouldn't worry! Sounds

like things are going great!

While I'm emailing anyway, I guess I'll add how Brittneys 6mo well baby

appointment went! She is 19lb/8oz, and 28in!! WOOHOO! Total opposite of how

my 3rd child was! She is doing great, except for the asthma...she had to get

a breathing treatment, and some more asthma med. Britt and my 2yr old are

suspected of having asthma. They do really good with it though, they are

little troopers...and I finally got them switched to pediatrics!! YAY!! We

were stuck with Family Practice, but I went through all the paperwork and was

able to get TriCare to switch them, due to the asthma diagnoses...And they

have some new inhaler! Well, it's new to us! So, we don't have to use the

nebulizer now, instead we use an inhaler, with an attachment. Works SO much

easier!

Anyway, that's my input for today! Hope everyone has great days!

Okay, Wendi...this whole inhaler thing is new to me! We've always used the

nebulizer, so any input you have would be appreciated! I wasn't told about

any rebound effects! LOL, give me your experience!

Sounds like Paige is getting enough. My daughter Holly only eats from one breast

each

feeding most of the time. This is so different from what I nurses my daughter

Ellen. I am

not worried because she has gained over 1 pound at her 2 week checkup yesterday.

Congrats on your healthy girl. Having been a Respiratory Therapist I can say

just be careful of inhalers they can have a rebound effect which causes them to

wheeze even more once the medication is worn off.

It depends on when it is and how hungry Zaid is. I have more letdowns now that

I have taken fenugreek.

Wendi

(no subject)

Does anyone else have multiple letdowns? That came out sounding like I should

have said orgasms *LOL* I usually have 2-3

per side and was wondering if I am a freak.

Lori,

I am sorry but I have to say nurse your son. Your husband will have much more

trouble comforting him if he is traumatized. He will survive without you. But

if he is feeling vulnerable from the forced weaning it isn't going to be as

easy. You can make arrangements for him to either have breastmilk while you are

gone or a substitute. Maybe if you keep nursing and start allowing your husband

to give him bottles to get him to sleep now so they can prepare. You can leave

the house if that is a problem. I would keep nursing so that you can smooth

over any trauma when you get back. I think your husband is being very selfish

and insensitive to you both. I think that a plan could be made for your absence

without this harshness for either of you. I mean no offense. I am sure your

husband is a great guy, but obviously he doesn't understand the nursing

relationship. Plus you don't want you and your son to always resent him for

this.

Wendi

(no subject)

I can't remember if I have ever posted to this list or not, so please

forgive me if you do not know who I am.

I need help! I have nursed my son for 23 months and now have to go on a

business trip that will keep me away from him for 4 nights. My husband is

convinced that if he is weaned my absence will be less traumatic for him so

he has basically forced me to wean him. I am very sad about this as I

wanted him to wean naturally. I am also in alot of physical pain - he

usually nursed 4 times - I work all day, so he would nurse when I got home,

as he drifted off to sleep, once in the middle of the night, and once before

getting up. If I was home during the day, he would nurse some then too.

If I am out in the evenings, he has been waking up and crying for me and my

husband says he won't let him touch him. He thinks if he is weaned, he will

be easier to comfort.

Bottom line is I am in physical pain as he has not nursed since Friday at

about 5:30PM and I am in emotional pain dealing with the impending

separation and the end of our nursing relationship. I tell my son, when he

asks for Num Num that " Daddy says No " , which is probably not good either.

Any advice anyone offers for any of this pain will be appreciated.

Thanks,

If possible, one could take a babysitter along on a trip. That way the work

can be done and the baby present on the nonworking time. We have done this

in the past. It is expensive if you don't have neices, sisters, cousins who

can help...but it does work out quite well.

Jenn,

Tea has done the same thing. when she was 2 1/2 months old. She slept

for 7 hours and this was just a nap. I was worried and called my mom.

She said to wake her. I have this thing about waking babies, I feel

that if they are sleeping they need the rest. I let her sleep and when

she woke up she ate like a horse

--and went back to sleep. The next day she was bigger and more alert.

that if they are sleeping they need the rest. I let her sleep and when

she woke up she ate like a horse

--and went back to sleep. The next day she was bigger and more alert.

Jenn,

Don't wake her up you will get her in a pattern of not being able to sleep for

long. She will eat when she wakes up and your milk supply will be okay. If

your worried pump during her long sleep. She is becoming an older baby and you

should let her. She is starting to regulate her sleep try not to disturb that.

I know how scary it is when your child is sleeping for much longer than usual

but Zaid slept 8-10 hours a night until he was 3 months. He then started

teething and hasn't really slept through the night since.

Don't worry. She's doing exactly what she is supposed to.

I was wondering how long was ok for babies to sleep solid at night. For

instance.. Paige (10 weeks) has been sleeping ina pattern for the last week

that was starts out 5 hours solid then goes every two-three hours for the

rest of the night and all day as well. Well last night I woke paige up

after she had sleep solid for 6 hours! I was scared somthing was wrong

when i realized the time. She ate like a pig when i woke her up. I am

just wanting to know what your experiences are. should i wake her up after

a certain amount of time... or just let her dictate when to eat. Will i

lose my milk supply if i wait that long in between feeding. Any

experiences/advice will be helpful:) thanks:)

Sherry,

I know what you opened and that is okay. The thing you weren't supposed to open

is Happy99.exe it is a virus. The post that said don't open it didn't have

Happy99 with it. Don't worry you are safe. Just don't open Happy99, just

delete it.
