mskitty - Wednesday, 10 December Hey there, I read your comment about the oatmeal to help boost supply. I tried this morning and really hope it works. I just got back to work this week and haven't pumped a whole lot until now. I'm just barely getting enough to last her thru the day. Today seems even less than yesterday so far. Only getting about 3-4 oz. total a pump. If you know of anything else that will help let me know!!
thanks
larissa789 - Wednesday, 10 December And my son was also born on Nov. 4th (2008). Too funny!
larissa789 - Wednesday, 10 December Thank you for your response! I just really hope they go down soon. I am so self-conscious about it. I thought my boobs were big before. Now I look like I am going to fall over! I just realized you are in Washington. What part? I live in Yakima. Well I hope you and your LO are doing great!
primetime - Tuesday, 9 December The condition my little one has is very rare. It was really hard at first, but we are learning so much about this and found a great support group. I wanted to comment on the bf page because there are reasons why a mother can not bf. I wanted to more than anything. I also want to let mothers know about this disorder because it is so rare and not too much is known about it. There is nothing more frustrating than not knowing how to take care of your baby and all the doctors keep talking in circles. Thank you for your kindness and have a wonderful holiday season.
adlde - Tuesday, 9 December Oh, thank you so much! My ped is very pro-breastfeeding, he encourages it so much. He did say I could supplement using expressed bm the only problem w/ that is I am pumping so much and trying to keep all expressed bm for my babysitter so that I don't have to use formula. I know formula has got a lot better over the years but I love breastfeeding and that is what i want for my daughter. She seems very satisfied when she eats and is always happy and content after every feeding, so i know she's getting enough, he's just concerned about her weight. I think she's fine and since I am around her more than he is I kind of go by "mother knows best"!
Thank you for your advice on how to get my milk up more, so just old fashioned oats will work? How many times do i need to eat them?

Dirk - Friday, 5 December Message to all: In the last 2 years you all posted 1.1 million photos to the site, and that needs a little maintenance. We are currently renaming all photos from the personal photobooks in order to speed up the site. Some, or all your photos may not show while we are working on the photobooks. You don't have to do anything. We hope to have all photos sorted in about 24 hours from now. You can upload new photos to your photobook while the computer is working on your other photos.

EvaV - Tuesday, 18 November Bri- thanks for the advice. My mom does actually bring Anna in at lunch for a feeding. But then there is 7 hours after that until I am able to nurse her again. I just don't know why its all of a sudden, after 6 weeks that she is refusing. Today was my day off but I am worried about tommorow. I love breastfeeding, but sometimes I wish that she was 6 months so that I could introduce some cereal.
