I am so sorry about the circumstances that brought about your pregnancy,

but happy that it turned out ok for you and that you chose to give Ethan

the benefit of breastfeeding:) Welcome to the list;)

Hi -

I'm Joan, mother of a magnificent little miracle, Helen Ann, who is 6 1/2 mo

& still breastfeeding... She was born at home....what can I say, I'm just in

love with her.

I decided to join this group in hopes of learning! We have not vaccinated our

daughter, nor do we intend to, and that e-mail list (pro-informed-choice /

anti-vaccine for the most part) made a lot of references to the incredible

short and long term health benefits of nursing (...not to mention the

closeness I feel looking down into those wonderful big blue eyes)!

I have a very supportive husband. He agrees that we should do whatever is

best for Helen, so even though the idea of nursing a toddler was/is kinda

weird to him, he's adjusting! And he's a pretty good sport about me having

the biggest breasts of my life and not really being in the mood to let him

enjoy them!!!!!!

I hope to learn all I can...and share what little I know!

Love, and God Bless,

Joan

Hello Everyone. My name is Christy, and I am 31. My husband and

I have one child, Chandler (18 months), and we are expecting baby #2

Jan. 8, 2000! We are so excited.

I breastfed Chandler until he was 14 months old. I would have

continued to breastfeed, but I was having many problems at the time.

Well, that is about it for now. I will look forward to hearing from

you soon. I had many breastfeeding questions with Chandler, and I am

sure I will have many more with the new baby.

Christy.

Hi everyone. My name is Crystal and my hubby and I just had our first

baby Hannah. She is five weeks old today. Thankfully, since day one she

has been a champ at breastfeeding. At her 1 month appt she had gained

almost 3lbs since she left the hospital! Well, everthing has been going

great till about a week ago. We will be in the middle of a feeding and

all of a sudden she will yank herself away from me and start screaming,

at the same time trying to find my breast again. She'll get almost back

on and them start all over again. She doesn't do this with every

feeding, but it very hard not knowing why she's doing this. She' s

obviously getting enough milk but what could be causing her to go all

frantic on me? She's so hard to calm down once this starts :(

Another question...

Does anyone else have a problem with shooting milk everywhere??? It is

very frusterating as I am afraid to breastfeed away from home because it

is very messy. Our first experience was in the church nursery and as

she pulled herself off of me I has 3 streams of milk shooting

everywhere. She was mad at me becasue she wanted to eat, but I couldn't

get it back in her mouth because I was shoooting her in the face!!!!

Then I was soaked, she was soaked and I was very discouraged. Is this

gonna last forever? I feel like I can feed an Army at times?

Oh I lied! One more question! I had been pumping milk at times to save

for when I need it. Well I had pumped while she was feeding at one

side, becasue she hardly ever finishes both sides. My question is...

What if I pump and then my baby is hungry? I just took it all out, so

what is left for her. I don't want to starve her. I found I have a

hard time pumping unless she is feeding at the same time. But, I know

that some ladies pmp in between feedings. But, like I said...what if

baby gets hungry right after I pump???

I am sooo confused :(

I look forward to getting to know all you!

I recognize some names from the BTL cloth diapering list :)

Love,

Crystal and Hannah

Crystal,

Welcome. Your breasts are never empty so don't worry about that. It is a

supply and demand situation. The more the demand the bigger the supply.

If you have just pumped there will still be milk and it will be the richer

hindmilk so she won't need as much. You won't starve her. It actually

sounds like her problem is from over active let-down. Anybody have those

websites about it? She sounds like she is getting drown (so to speak) and

is trying to catch her breath but doesn't want to stop nursing. You could

try pumping a little first to get the let down to come to the pump and then

nurse her. I know others here have this problem and can help more. I

struggle more with a lack of supply so this isn't my realm. Btw I am Wendi

sahm to Kaija 7yo(homeschools) and Zaid 20 months (nursing) and am married

and live in No. Ca. Again welcome.

<< Welcome and congratulations on your baby. What is her name? >>

Thank you for the kind welcome. Her name is Paige Lorraine, and she weighed

in at 8lbs 14oz. Good size I think. Her older brother, Chase ,

weighed in at 9lbs exactly. Both nursed very well. I really don't

understand why I didn't go back to it the last time. Maybe because I was

really young when I had him. I was only 21, and I think not ready for

parenthood. Even though I'm 24 now, I feel that I have matured 20 years, and

I'm looking at parenthood, especially being the mom of 2, in a different

light. I welcome the challenge. And I will continue to breastfeed for as

long as Paige will allow me. Sorry, I'm feeling a little like Scarlet O'Hara

when she went back to Tara. Its my fave movie, and she's my hero.

< My question is...

and Amy replied, " he good thing about breastmilk is you always make more so

don't

worry about pumping. "

My own experience is that this is definitely true! I used to get up and

pump every morning at 4 am - one morning, I pumped something like 11 ounces

and woke up about 10 minutes later. He was able to induce a letdown

immediately and happily went back to sleep with his tummy satisfied. Other

times it's taken a little longer to let down (but still pretty quick), but

it does happen and your baby will be able to eat. Moreover, your baby will

be getting less foremilk and will probably be content with maybe a little

less. Don't know if that's true or not, but that's the only thing that

made any sense to me, since it didn't seem that he swallowed quite as much.

Just my experience, FWIW. :)

-, mom to who weighs 20 lbs at 5 months, all on mommy's milk!! :)

Hello...My name is Kari. I am the mother of 4 boys. All of whom have been

BF, the youngest, 8 months, still is. I thought this list might be fun as I

could share with you and also gain from your experiences. You would think

that by #4 BF would be pretty routine but it has been completely different

with all of them.
