and he refuses to take a bottle for longer than maybe 2 minutes if you're

lucky. I'm getting married on April 30, and we probably won't be able to go

on a honeymoon because of the bfing. I am a stay-at-home-mom. I have had

something of a tough time adjusting to motherhood, but am enjoying it,

nevertheless.

Hi!! Kiva was born June 15!! Are you by any chance a member of the

Parentsplace June 98 playgroup? I am so happy for your bfing success, and

hope not too much trouble happens between you and your mother and MIL!!

Kiva still does noy eat solids either, unless you count slobbering on a

tortilla during an out to eat at Mexican food restaurant!! LOL

I'm not bored! I love hearing about other peoples babies! Welcome to the

list. I am Hannah and have three kids (see sig line below!). I had my first

From: Mom2Natali@...

Hello, my name is Robin and I have a 16 week old daughter born

December 8th. I'm new to this list and wanted to introduce myself. I'm 19

years old and I've been married almost a year (April 18th will be ONE YEAR,

WooHoo!) to my wonderful hubby Nate (Lowride193-some of you might know him

from AOL's Life-Pregnant chat; he's been coming in there since i was

pregnant). is (of course) breastfed and has only ever had one bottle

in her life (that was one ounce of breastmilk which i hand expressed--- that

sucked!). I'm sure you all could have guessed already that I am a stay at

home mommy. I don't have much support from my family about breastfeeding, my

sister nor my mom did it and they pretty much think that I'm crazy for doing

it. I do have support from my hubby's family, it seems like all of them

breastfed, lol. My mom has been on me from the day I brought home

from the hospital to start her on cereal, but we're waiting til she is 6

months to start that. And of course the think I'm crazy for waiting til then.

But is 27 3/4 inches tall and 14 pounds so I see no need to rush her.

Her doctor said she was above average for her age and that all looked good.

But I'll stop boring you now.

<3,

Robin

Robin,

welcome to the list. My name is Shera I am a stay at home mom, I'll be

26 tomorrow. My daughter Tea (tayah) was born 8/13/98. She is 27 1/2

inches tall and 20 pounds. She just started to eat food. Don't worry

about starting her on cereal. She sounds like she is doing just fine

on breast milk. Tea is not even eating cereal, she eats

banana,apple,and yam. Also when you do start to feed her solids you

will notice that her poops smell different. (yucky)

Welcome Connie & Andre & !

I just sent my into so I won't say it again!! he he he! I that is so great

that you were able to experience a home birth. I don't think I could do that,

but I love hearing about them. Maybe you could share yours with us? If not I

understand, giving birth can be a very intimate & private experience.

Stacey,

Welcome I am Wendi sahm to Kaija 7yo (homeschools) & Zaid 17 months (nursing).

I live in No. Calif. with my husband. There are lots of way to get little

breaks. Wait until she goes to sleep and go for a 20 min walk. Whoever is

watching her can try to feed her a bottle with your shirt wrapped around it.

Also have the person who is giving her the bottle take of their shirt so she can

get the skin. Feeding with a spoon or dropper can work well also. Glad to have

you here.

Wendi

Hello Stacey:) welcome to the list:) I am jenn a whole crazy stay at home

mom to Paige who is just about 3 months and married to my Andy for two

years on next monday:) I don't know what advice to give you on the bottle

thing, but i have heard that having someone else give the bottle can be

helpful and changing different types of nipples too. I have given paige

three bottles of breastmilk since she was born and the first tow she drank

no prob.. but the third and last time i tried she looked at me like i was

crazy!! good luck, I am sure the others will ahve some great advice:)

Stacey,

Welcome to you. It is hard to get baby to take a bottle when she is used to

you. Many times if Mommy is around when the bottle is being offered, baby

will not take it and will hold out for the au natural way. Has someone other

than you tried to give one to her with you totally gone? Some baby's are

better suited to a cup feeding too. I have seen very small babies use cups

with help. I do not know how to go about this as I did not use a cup, but

someone may be able to make suggestions. At 5 months, I am sure she is

pretty used to getting you and only you. I would also think that being in a

non stimulating environment while offering a bottle would help too. I am

bouncing around here, just trying to think of ideas. You have probably

already tried everything you know of! I guess I can say that I do remember

being there...needing a break. I did not get one as my ds nursed constantly.

I thought it would never end. Even though I enjoyed nursing him, sometimes I

was just touched out. It did, however, end...at least his frequent nursing

ended. He now nurses only a couple of times each day. You do have to take

care of yourself, but remember, it will lighten up SOON.

thanks, . yep. we've tried it all -- Daddy giving her to bottle, a

cup, in her room w/ the music on & lights off... all we succeeded at was

making her *mad* ;o)

I'm chaperoning my 6yod's K class to the zoo in a few weeks and I wanted to

leave Cammie w/ my mil for the day, but I'll either take her with me, or not

go :(

thanks for the support!!

Do you have a sling? That could make it easier to take her places.

Stacey,

I am glad I could help. I was worried that it would have been too obvious but

apparently its always a good idea to speak up. I've been putting my views forth

so much ( with my website) that I am on overload and starting to doubt myself.

I'll try to stop that. :D

Hi Cindee,

I am having surgery with Dr. Marema on Tuesday - yes.....THIS Tuesday :-).

I am also interested in going to a therapist. If you wouldn't mind could I

have the name of yours? Someone recommended Spellman but I am not

sure her feelings on bariatric patients - I do know she has success with

behavior modification in other areas. I saw Dr. head for my pre op

evaluation but she is far away for me - I live in City.

Congratulations on your success story!

- Kim
