Well this is my first baby and I'm super excited and scared at the same time. We found out on October 9 that we're having a little boy. I like the name Aiden so we'll probably go with that. It's crazy how many emotions you can have at one time! I'm a nurse and was planning on going back to school next year to get my bachelors degree, but I guess I'll have to put that on hold since I'll have a full plate. I'm very open to chat with anyone on here and get some free advice. I'll try to give as much advice as possible but I don't know how much help I'll be!! CONGRATULATIONS to all the moms! :

Well we had Aiden early on February 11th. I ended up having pre-eclampsia and leaking amniotic fluid so they did an emergency c-section. He's still in the NICU b/c his lungs were pre-mature, but hopefully he'll be home soon!!!!

i'm on the same train with you where you're not pumping out much =/ i'm about ready to throw in the towel i am taking fenugreek and bless thistle and still am not seeing much of a difference =/


beccaboo3912 - Thursday, 27 Mar
I saw your question about not producing enough on the breastfeeding board. I was told to leave the pump on for ten or more minutes after the milk stops...This will tell your body to produce more for the baby...It's worked for me so far. In 24 hours I went from producing 2 oz. to producing 4 oz. I hope this helps!

Baby's typically grow out of the acid reflux. My son's finally went away when he was a year old. My daughter has it also, and she's 2 months now. She is on medication for it. If your little one doesn't seem to be in a lot of pain during or after eating, and isn't throwing up too much, then you're probably okay to not be on meds for it.


sonya75 - Thursday, 20 Mar
Also, someone gave me this link which is actually very helpful.
http://www.llli.org/NB/NBmilksupplyissues.html
And another person recommended a book from Le Leche League called 'The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding'. I haven't looked at it yet, but it's worth a try.


sonya75 - Thursday, 20 Mar
I'll let you know if it helps. I picked up some fenugreek yesterday. I also bought some Mother's Milk tea. So, we'll see.

Thanks. Ive been pretty busy with Aden so i havent really had time to get on lol. He sure does take up alot of my time which is no problem of course because i couldnt be happier = D

yes I know what you mean about the head aches. But keep in mind. Babies only get actual milk every 15 minutes on each breast and then they are just sucking for pleasure. If your little one is like that (Like mine was) then try a pacifier and that'll help them soothe to sleep.


Caleb - Thursday, 6 Mar
If your baby is breast fed he/she will probably have 1 ,2 or 3 feedings at night until they are 3 months old, then they will have 1 feeding. If they are formula fed he/she might sleep through the night once they are 3 months

I'll keep your little one in my prayers. I'm sure he'll be fine. My sister-in-law had her baby five weeks early and the baby was able to come home after a week.


nikkit - Friday, 15 Feb
I believe your baby will be just fine...Keep your spirits high.Just keep telling that baby how much you want him to come home..I'll bet in a week he will be fine enough to come home..


2nd-time-mommy - Friday, 15 Feb

I too am around the 40lbs mark for weight gain... nice to see that others are in the same boat! ;) This site can be so reassuring!


HIBABY - Friday, 1 Feb
Just wanted to say,
Im SOOO glad to hear someone else has gained weight like me...hehe.
You look WAY smaller than me though! Your so cute! Everyone keeps saying Im all baby, but its hard to believe them sometimes. :) Well, good luck to you and Congrats!!!


jbo - Wednesday, 30 Jan
Your belly isn't huge...you look great! You can't be any bigger than me! I am glad the dizziness is gone and sorry about the sciatica...I heard that it was painful. I have been having pain down there as well especially at night when I get up to go to the bathroom. I haven't been sleeping well at all either my midwife told me to start taking tylenol pm at least 2 nights a week. I can't believewe only have five weeks left...don;t you feel like we have been prego forever? I have heard that most firstborns come late but most of the recent cases I have seen (friends, cousins, etc) seems to be right on time give or take 2 or 3 days...so we'll see! I have been getting BH's like crazy but I guess that doesn't really mean anything right?!


jbo - Tuesday, 29 Jan
Hey Jina how are you feeling? Were you able to get checked out?


deba4Cy - Tuesday, 22 Jan
hey there... sorry to hear that you're uncomfortable. I would most def get a second opinion and asap because all of those signs are signs of preeclampsia. I actually was struggling with the same thing and was at the hospital this weekend because of it. All is fine now but have to be monitored closer. I would call the dr again and demand to be seen by someone else and have a second opinion. Good luck... let me know how things go.


jbo - Tuesday, 22 Jan
Hey Jina just left you a message on the 33 week page but wanted to say hi and I am open to chat anytime as well. I too am a first time pregger :)I have so many questions and things that I am feeling and just being clueless altogether it is nice to have all these friends in the same boat. Good luck!


meganmommy - Monday, 21 Jan
Hey jina I'm in the same boat my doctor won't do my next and last u/s until I'm 36 wks so that maybe the same time 4 u I'm jealous that everyone else has had theirs and know how much their baby weighs


cj - Saturday, 19 Jan
here, just to let you know, I had my baby and within a week lost 25lbs. Don't worry about the weight


Erin4 - Saturday, 12 Jan
Im sure if there was any reason for concern, the doctor would have said something to you, or sent you for a sono. Im sure he is fine :) He is probally just getting excited to meet his mommy!


jscottn401 - Friday, 11 Jan
