(On the main photo I am 37 weeks pregnant with my first baby)

Hello!
My name is Olga and I love being pregnant very much! I gave birth in February 2008 and I hope I can get pregnant again in the near future.

My first pregnancy was very easy. No morning sickness, no stretch marks. I did not gain much weight and I was only 140 lbs at 38 weeks. I was never sick. My pregnancy did not last too long (40 or more weeks) so I did not get tired of being pregnant too :) My water broke at 38 weeks.

We love children! My husband would like to have 5 or 7. I would like to have minimum 4 kids! I love them. They are a lot of fun and happiness! :)

Our first baby is a very good baby. She is never really fussy and as long as we change her diaper and feed her in time she is a very happy baby! At 2 months old she started to sleep from 9 pm till 2 am and then after her "early morning" snack she would sleep till about 6-7 am.

We love taking care of her and she thanks us with her beautiful smile :)

I have just wrote my friend a reply to her question about what I did when my milk supply went down. I copied my reply and will paste it here since I know the information can be useful for many other moms!

"...
(I did A LOT OF research so trust me :) )

I bought off amazon (cheapest):

1.Traditional Medicinals Mother's Milk and Yogi Tea Healing Formula, Woman's Nursing Mom, Tea Bags (u can also buy one of those, they are boh great and I would use both)

2. Fenugreek seed (there are many brands that sell it just get any, it doesnt matter)

3. If you pump only then make sure you pump every 2 hours for 5 min no more no less. If breastfeed just keep breastfeeding. And don't stress out about pumping or how much baby takes.. relax and feed whenever baby wants.. in bout 3 days you will get more milk and baby will eat less often.

Take 3 (no 2 as it says) capsules 3 times a day for the first week and then you can start taking 2 capsules.. Drink the tea at least 5 times a day.

This will increase your milk supply guaranteed :)

You also can do yoga I heard it help a lot too (relaxation is very important for the milk production especially during those stressful days)

I did that for 1 month and now, as of today I am not pumping anymore because I just couldnt do it so often and take all those teas, fenugreek and all.. and pumping was hurtful to me.. so I started pump less and less and my milk went away.. My baby is a little over 4 months old now.

I did a lot of research about bottle feeding, asked friends and tried lots of bottles and formulas myself. Here is the best choice:

Bottles: Dr. Browns POLYPROPYLENE (!) 8 oz bottles STANDARD with slow flow nipple

Playtex Drop Ins wide neck

Formula: Good Start Supreme or natural Cultures powder and 3oz ready to feed nursers. This formula does not cause constipation like many other formulas do. It smells a lot better. It mixes a lot faster. I does not have foam like Enfamil after you shake it.

As my doctor said don't stress too much about it. If you have to formula feed then do it. Formula provides great nutritions for your baby. They say breast milk first, but formula is may be not better but also good for your baby.

Hey about the milk thing I actually made less milk when I was pumping and when I went back to just nursing I started making a lot more again. I also started drinking barley green once a day and that really seemed to help. Now that I'm making a lot of milk again I pump 1oz from each side before feeding my son a few times a day. I only freeze 5oz a day though so must of the time I just feed my baby. Good luck!

privet, oh yes time does fly:) Eventhough it feels like centuries when I gave birth and it's been only 4 weeks ago! We're doing good, we named our little girl Michelle, she'll be 1 month in 5 days:) I feel very good, my delivery was pretty easy and quick, I already healed and have no bleeding. Well life is good, I'm INLOVE!:)
How are you, how is little Olivia doing?
