marktrish - Thursday, 30 October see my default pic of my baby... isnt cute... lol!!
have a nice day to all!!
ozbaby - Thursday, 30 October I found a place that sell one. It has fenugreek, anise, and fennell seeds in it. It doesnt have all the ingredients the other one does but it is only $18 for 20 bags. Not cheap but saves on postage costs etc. I can buy the capsules but i think i would like to try the tea. My daughter is off school today sick but ill try and pop down later today and get it. They said they have had good results with it so i am happy to try it. I just want my milk back with a bit extra :)

ozbaby - Wednesday, 29 October I saw that. Only 30 cups per bag it says. That would only last 10 days. It would cost me Almost $60 US so about $75 Australian for 60 cups of tea!!!That includes postage as well. I am about to call the local health food store and see if they have something similar or can make it up for me as she lists the ingredients. Hopefully it works out a lot cheaper. I would love to be engorged and have way too much so i can stock up again She drank ALL my frozen supply in 24 hours of top ups! I had nowhere near enough. So i have learnt my lesson.Id love to have enough frozen that i could feed her for a month after i stop breastfeeding!!! Imagine that. Ill keep you posted how i go with my health food store.
ozbaby - Wednesday, 29 October I love licorice!! Ill look it up now and try and order some. It is getting better but i would love to have so much i HAD to pump so i could get a good store up in the freezer. Hows it working for you? Id love to know how much more your getting.
ozbaby - Tuesday, 28 October Hi. Can you tell me about the tea your drinking to increase your supply? Im taking the motilium but since my mastitis i am struggling and having to suppliment with formuala for a few feeds a day and that sucks. Thanks
~NyMom - Saturday, 25 October You welcome lizzie! glad it is getting better... It is strange how the pain leaves but comes back.. I totally understand.. you welcome and keep nursing those nippies till it is 100 percent better ;0)
xocyncyn - Friday, 24 October Ok good I thought I was the only one haha
carlybarleyx - Friday, 24 October Theo is the opposite, he's short and chubby! I'm getting a bit worried actually because he's 9 weeks old but weighs 13lb 7oz. He's following his line nicely along his chart but the dr was quite concerned. xxx
ozbaby - Friday, 24 October We have taken kayleeaway whenv she was about 5 or 6 months and she was fine. Emerson will be 6 months when we go away at Christmas so i can tell you how she goes when we get back. I think it depends on the baby really. A fussy baby might not travel well but remember you have to take so much stuff when you take a baby....I personally think it will be easier if you go when she is 9 or 10 months as she probably wont be walking yet. It is always harder to watch them at other places when they can take off...
ozbaby - Friday, 24 October Oh your so sweet, Ill take the E-hug :) I started taking it Tuesday night when i realised i had mastitis! So i think it is starting to kick in. I just fed her the last 60mls of milk i had so im pumping now.... She wont feed on the mastitis side very well. The 2nd side cleared up quickly.... Fingers crossed im ok by tonight and can go out for a few hours.. I doubt it though with all my milk gone!

ozbaby - Thursday, 23 October Yeah stupid me just stopped cold turkey!!! IDIOT. Then the mastitis as well and i literally have next to NO milk. I can express from both sides about 400-50mls at the most. She is almost refusing to even try to feed now as there is nothing there and let down is really slow and she gets frudtrated. Feeding was going so well too. Im so annoyed at myself. The Dr said yeah just stop taking them for a few days, surely he wasnt thinking as last time i weaned off them and then had to go back on them anyway. I have used all but 60mls of my frozen milk and she will need that top up when she wakes up. I think i may have to go buy some formula this morning. IDIOT IDIOT - Plus i am not sleeping. I was awake all night last night again so im sure thats not helping anything. I feel delirious with frustration and exhaustion. I plan on sleeping as much as i can today while she sleeps and pumping as much as i can after each attempt at feeding. Ill check out the website you sent if i can hold my eyelids open long enough!!!! Wish i could turn the clock back a week,,,,
ozbaby - Thursday, 23 October I dont think mastitis can spread but i did get it on the otehr side as well. Im thinking maybe i need a bigger bra as im still wearing the same size as when i was pregnant. I fill it but dont fall out of it. The reason is that i have the mastitis in the same spot under both breasts so maybe it is the bra? Who knows. It hurts like hell though. At least it is a bit better today and i can actually pick her up and hold her without holding her away from my chest. I really hope you never get it. I had it with Kaylee and Jayden so i knew what it felt like and what it was straight away. WOW 1 month!!! You must have died! What a suprise. I think you id the right thing to wait a while as marriage is forever ( well most of the time :) ) and one month probably isnt quite long enough to be that sure. But some people say they just knew right from the start. Mick and i have been together for almost 13 years! Kaylee was born after we were together about 4 years but i already had my son Jayden who was 2 when Mick and i got together. We got engaged about 6 years ago and may get married in another 6 ha ha. I just couldnt be bothered organising the whole thing. Well my sister just showed up so i better go make her a coffee... Talk soon xx

Mrs.M.H. - Wednesday, 22 October Thanks I'm getting another done today I'm a day over now too. Congrats!
carlybarleyx - Wednesday, 22 October Oh congratulations! How long are you planning on being engaged for? Feel free to post a photo and show off the ring lol. We had a nice weekend, Theo's nights seem to be getting better now. Theo weighed 12lb 10 days ago so dread to think what he is now! He's 2 months old but still in newborn and 0-3 month things, he's not very long at all, just chubby!! I had that for a while with Theo, it felt like it was burning really badly when he fed from one side. xxx
ozbaby - Wednesday, 22 October Oh that sounds so exotic. Im jealous. We have been engaged for about 5 or 6 years now and just havent gotten around to getting married. We bought our house instead. I did want to get married before Emi was born but i was too stressed at work and with my parents breaking up that i didnt organise it. Maybe one day. I feel a little better today but my whole body is aching and now the other boob is sore too. Emi is unsettled today as well so thats not helping! Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day...
ozbaby - Tuesday, 21 October oh my god... CONGRATULATIONS to you!!! How very exciting. You must be thrilled. All these nice things for you this year! A baby and now a husband.. I expect to see wedding pics... When are you thinking of getting married?
Well i have a nasty case of mastitis! I thought it was a bllocked duct but last night in the shower i saw it was all red and i was awake all night with hot and cold sweats and am sweating like a pig now. I cant cool down. I got antibiotics. Oh i hope it kicks in soon as i feel like i have been hit by a bus!
