blackpearl - Wednesday, 10 December wow that is crazy. i actually am using the avent bottles with pumped breast milk and she does fine getting it out! i know she knows how to suck its just that when she is on my breast she seems to "forget". i wonder why they fall asleep while eating...do you have any tricks to waking the baby up? i have tried several things like tickling her feet, tapping her cheeks and under her chin, patting and rubbing her back...i just don't know what else to do.
angelag3girls - Wednesday, 10 December I just saw your updated post and I was on nystatin too. It took about 24 hrs to really notice a change in the pain and you take it for a week after symptoms are gone. Make sure you wipe off before breast feeding.
angelag3girls - Wednesday, 10 December The burning could still be because of the clogged duct. Are you applying heat and making sure breast is completely empty after a few of the feeds? Some of those symptoms sounds like thrush. Is there redness around and on the nipple? Is there any white spots on the inside of his cheeks or lips? Another reason could just be his latch especially with the biting down. change the positions often and make sure he is on there good.

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. Thanks for reading.
