Congratulations on your baby ... sounds like you are doing a

> My name is and Im a SAHM of Alyssa who is 9 months (june

25th). We've been strictly nursing up until 8 months, when we began

to hit on solids, although, even now, we still reply mostly on

breastmilk. (I'll give her a few bites of something a day, but, not

jars of babyfood ect.. ) I, for the most part, practice attachment

parenting, by baby wearing and co-sleeping. And, honestly, theres not

a minute that goes by that Im not holding/interacting with her. I've

been married to her father, , for over 5 years, and she is our

first child.. He's a Army Reservist, and, works full time for the

Department of Defense as a helicopter mechanic on the Apache. He's 26

and I am 24.

Constantly smiling, always happy.. rarely cries or fusses. She's been

crawling since 6 months, standing since 8, and is trying to walk .

She contantly amazes me, and I cant imagine what life was like before

her :)

Welcome to the list. Congratulations on your new baby. Glad to hear

nursing is getting smooth. He must seem so big compared to your other

babies. I am so sorry to hear about your twins and their short life. I

have to commend you for giving them the gift of your milk while they were

hear and for going on to nurse your son for 10 months after a very difficult

start. You must be a very determined woman. That makes quite a good

mother. :D Any questions you may have, please feel free to ask. BTW I am

Wendi (listmom) and am currently nursing my 2 1/2 yo son. I nursed my 8yo

dd until she was 13 months and I inadvertantly weaned her to bottles. I was

very committed to nursing my son to 2yo but now we are on the natural

weaning plan. He is showing some signs of nursing less and I am not ready

for him to wean. Quite a change from just barely making it a year with my

daughter. I love nursing my toddler and don't look forward to weaning. Of

course it will happen eventually but on his schedule not mine (unless

something drastically changes). I couldn't imagine myself feeling this way

but as we have gone along I see how great it is to nurse a toddler. Anyway

now I have written a book. Glad to have you and look forward to hearing

more from you.

introduction

Hello I would just like to introduce myself. My name is and

I am a SAHM to my ds Alec who is 2 and a half and my ds Peyton who is

6 days old today. This was my third pg my first pg was with twins

who were born at 25 wks and passed away four and six weeks after

being born. I pumped milk for them for the entire time they lived.

10 months after my second daughter passed away I had my ds who was

born 6 wks early. He also had to go to the nicu right when he was

born since he couldn't breathe on his own. I pumped when he was

first born since he didn't have the suck reflex and then worked

extensively with the lactation specialist to get him to nurse. I am

proud to say that I did it very successfully for 10 months. He

weighed 6 pounds 12 ounces when he was born and by the time he was 9

months he weighed a whopping 23 pounds. We tryed for 10 months to

get pg with our latest and it was an extremlly difficult pg I lost 37

pounds because of extreme ms and was hospitlized 7 times for PTL and

was also on strict bedrest and meds from 29 wks to 36 wks. Last

Friday I was actually induced at 39 weeks exactly. My first full

term baby the delivery was rough and I ended up having a c-sect

because his heartrate kept dropping and when my docter opened me up

she realized why he wasn't coming out he was crooked. But the end

result was awesome he was crying when he was born (also a first for

me) and his apgars were 8 9 and 8 and he weighed 8 pounds 2 ounces

and was 22 inches long. I got to try nursing him about 3 hours after

he was born. It was a little difficult at first but yesterday things

finally have taken off and he is nursing like a champ. So far he is

an easy baby and has been eating anywhere from every 2-5 hours. He

has been awake for the past three mornings for about 4 hours just

laying and looking around but seems to be content with that. Well

now that I have written a book hope to gain lots of valuable info and

support from this group since my goal is 1 year this time longer if

it works for us.

was also on strict bedrest and meds from 29 wks to 36 wks. Last

Friday I was actually induced at 39 weeks exactly. My first full

term baby the delivery was rough and I ended up having a c-sect

because his heartrate kept dropping and when my docter opened me up

she realized why he wasn't coming out he was crooked. But the end

result was awesome he was crying when he was born (also a first for

me) and his apgars were 8 9 and 8 and he weighed 8 pounds 2 ounces

and was 22 inches long. I got to try nursing him about 3 hours after

he was born. It was a little difficult at first but yesterday things

finally have taken off and he is nursing like a champ. So far he is

an easy baby and has been eating anywhere from every 2-5 hours. He

has been awake for the past three mornings for about 4 hours just

laying and looking around but seems to be content with that. Well

now that I have written a book hope to gain lots of valuable info and

support from this group since my goal is 1 year this time longer if

it works for us.

if I don't answer something right away, that's probably the reason.
