Now the trouble is I have been trying to introduce her to the cup for a month but with no progress at all. She drinks milk from it like she drinks water - a sip here a sip there but not any substantial amount. I have tried all kinds of cups, nothing is working. I know weaning doesn't happen overnight but zero progress is something I was not prepared for.  People tell me to force her to sit and drink it but how can you force a 13-month-old to do something... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (rosali7374) http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/44882 Thu, 04 Mar 2010 14:05:25 PST http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/44867/t/We-made-it-.html
Oh my god my baby is no longer a baby!

I am feeling kinda bittersweet about it....I always wanted him to self wean and I would have liked it to be later on (his brother self weaned at about 15 months).

Noah has gastroenteritis and I am not sure if its ok to breastfeed him or not?   doctor said no milk or dairy which we dont do anyhow because of his allergy....he suggested rehydration powders but I cannot remember if it is ok to breastfeed them when they have gastroenteritis or not?   I know with cows milk you shouldn't feed them until they are 24 hours clear of the bug?

Any input would be great

Gavin is 3 months old and exclusively breastfeeds (does not like the bottle)... I think that my supply has depleted since I do not have a full feeling (for weeks now)... He has wet diapers, poops and is gaining weight... However, he appears to fuss a lot more during feedings recently (he has reflux and is on meds to address this problem). I started pumping yesterday and barely produced 2ozs.... what does everyone think? PS....I am drinking water, eating oatmeal, anything to help produce more milk... hmm Do you think it is a supply issue. So hard to judge since we can't see what we have.

Second question, I have to go away for a night this Saturday, I will be away from the baby for almost 24 hours. Has anyone had their baby take formula round the clock with no problems??? Thanks ladies!


Karen

Allison is still going strong at 8 months. She is so busy it is sometimes hard to get her to stop long enough to nurse. But, she would stay attatched to me all night if she had her way!! Little stinker! And she has occassionally bit me with her 2 (only 2) bottom teeth....i remember the biting with megan and I am hoping Allison is not as bad...

So, who else is still nursing and how is it going?

I am exclusively bfding at this point. I think my little guy has reflux because of the spitting up or maybe colic??? Hard to determine... if anyone has had any experience with reflux or colic, please let me know the signs and any recommendations to help my little fuss pot. We seem to have a never ending cycle of feeding, spitting up, feeding spitting up, no sleep etc..... Also, his poop is not the mustard seed yellow poop I remember from my last baby (he is 9 days old). Thanks in advance for your responses!!!!

Although, she only nursed on one side. I kept wanting to wean her before the baby came but she would have none of it We got it down to just nursing before bedtime a couple of months before the baby came. She didn't nurse whille I was in the hospital so I thought it would be a good time. As soon as she saw me nurse the baby, the crying started At times it really hurts me when she nurses but makes the engorgement feel better Not sure what to do at this point feeds@kickapps.com (KylieAusten) http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/43477 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 09:17:48 PST http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/43472/t/I-made-it-a-year-.html I am so proud that we made it this far. I can't say she will continue on much longer. I can get her on anywhere from 3-5 times a day, depending on her mood. I always said, I wanted to make it at least 6 months, then once that passed, I wanted to go as far as 12 months, and here we are! I will continue to go by her ques, and if she stops, we stop. I also always said, I am not going to force her, but if she is willing, and wants to go on, we shall! I certainly have gone down in size, and I don't engorge at all anymore, but I do love the bonding time with her. I am so excited! We have been pump free since June too! ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (MissHeather88) http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/43472 Wed, 16 Sep 2009 19:53:36 PST http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/43429/t/Caffeine.html feeds@kickapps.com (allybethh) http://conceptionandsomuchmore.com/topic/43429 Sat, 12 Sep 2009 10:27:32 PST
