Just looked at your page, your girls are so precious! I can't wait until Travis is a big brother!!!

Ok, I'm not one to argue with doctors, but I looked up nystatin to make sure that my pediatrician hadn't given me bad information. It looks like she was right on though and I'm not sure why your pediatrician doesn't want you to split the dosage. Here is just one sight I found (there were lots so I think it's trustworthy)

What other drugs will affect nystatin?
Since nystatin is not absorbed by your body, drug interactions are not expected. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking other prescription or over-the-counter medicines.

Here's the site that's from: http://www.peacehealth.org/kbase/multum/d01233a1.htm

The normal dosage for nystatin is four times a day, the reason my pediatrician told me to split it up was because the yeast had spread to my nipples so if the baby picked up more yeast from me then I gave the medicine right after feeding so it wouldn't grow in his mouth. Maybe since your nipples don't appear to be affected they think that it's only coming from your baby and that's why you don't have to do it after she eats?? I don't know but I really don't understand why they only have you give it to her once a day. When I gave it to Travis 4 times a day it didn't work, but when I gave it to him after every feeding it did (which is a royal pain in the middle of the night but anything to get rid of the yeasties :-))

I hope you're not upset with me for disagreeing with your pediatrician. I have just learned that they don't all know everything and I have a hard time trusting just them when it comes to my baby! The first time I had a yeast infection my doctor told me that I could do the over the counter medicine but that I had to stop breastfeeding for a week. Forget that, that was at the beginning so I didn't even have a good supply in the freezer. I called Travis' pediatrician and she said it was fine to continue breastfeeding while using the over the counter stuff. I find that every doctor gives different advice which is just frustrating! Ok, I'll stop filling your page with my babble :-). Hope you are able to get the yeast out of your house! Have a great week!!

johna - Tuesday, 3 June
Well I am so glad you don't have to throw it out. We know our bodies better than our Dr's. I hate it when I have to beg. We are the ones hurting....so frustrationg! It will get better though. HUGS:)

johna - Tuesday, 3 June
My Dr. said it was fine...if I were you I would contact La Leche, they are the BF experts. I didn't throw mine out and Sadie is fine.

Traviesa - Tuesday, 3 June
interesting..because my son spits up alot so he always has white tongue from the milk.

Thank you for responding to my message on breasfeeding. I thought there was something really wrong with me. My baby is 2 months and if I pump I can only get about 1/2 ounce from my left breast and about 3 ounces from my right. I breast fed my girls years ago and I never had this problem..I've continued to breastfeed but I do supplement with formula after I have breastfed him.

Traviesa - Tuesday, 3 June
you use the little brush to clean baby's mouth this young? no one ever mentioned that to me..

babymakes3 - Saturday, 31 May
So glad the shells helped you out. I wish I had known about them with my first 2 children. They definitely saved my nipples this time around!

Peach - Saturday, 31 May
Thank God your baby is okay!! Did your doctor say what can be done to prevent the baby from going blue like that?? How scary! I am so glad that everything is better now. I often check on my baby to make sure she is breathing when she sleeps for longer periods of time, but it is impossible to constantly look at her to make sure she is okay. I know that for some babies they have monitors that they can wear while sleeping to check their breathing (they can have something to check their pulse and oxygen that they wear on their foot); I have seen it given to a baby with sleep apnea...I would guess that your baby would not qualify because it was only one instance?? But for piece of mind, you might want to ask.

thanks so much for your wish with josh!
Joshua is much better thank God! thanks so much for the comment of my boys!!! I also had a difficult time breast-feeding my second! with my first everything was so much easier! My nipples hurt and my breast is also hurting! have you try the shells before? do they work? I'm still trying to stop to B/F but it not working! I keep pumping the milk out!

it sounds like a good deal that your daughter is going longer between feeds! And I would just go with the cues that your daughter gives. If she is super tired / lethargic though, please check her temperature. My son was 'suddenly' real tired and landed up being sick. But I'm sure that your daughter's tummy is getting bigger and that she therefore does not need to feed as often.

treasa - Tuesday, 27 May
hey girl i have a ?. do you have a sharp tingleing pain when your baby wants to eat? my boobs are hurting really bad lately it just started it was never like this before. how is everything going with the baby? everything is great here.

PRETTIEST MOM
Once you have been hit, you have to hit 5 pretty Moms.
If you get hit again, You will know you are REALLY pretty!
So hit 15 pretty moms on your friends list to let them know they are
pretty!
Before I was a Mom
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.
Before I was a Mom - I had never been puked on.
Pooped on. Chewed on. Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her
down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop
the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom -
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important
and happy.
Before I was a Mom -
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to
make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the
wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.
Send this to someone who you think is a special Mom.''

Hey, saw your birth control post, I am going to get the copper IUD. It has no hormones at all. Turns out copper kills sperm, who would have thought? It can stay in 5 yrs, but you can have it removed whenever you feel ready to try again. And after it comes out there is not wait time for you to become fertile again. There is also an IUD with progesterone only, but it is so low dose it doesn't circulate your system, but stays localised in your reproductive organs... So shouldn't effect your moods or your breast milk... These are the top two options my OB talked to me about as she knows I am BF and she is really suportive and didn't want to effect my milk supply. I hope this has helped, and am surprised your doc didn't bring it up to you, but hey, if condoms work for you and your husband, use condoms, don't let anyone bully you into doing something you know will adversely affect your life! Good Luck...
