At 6 months my daughter was BF 3-4 times daily and eating 2 meals consisting of cereal and fruit in AM and cereal and veg in PM. I began menstrating again at 6-7 months and we got preg again at 8 months. Sydney, now 14 months, weened herself at 11.5 months. At 9 months she was eating 3 good meals ...

I used the Aventi and loved it. I just finished (she weened herself) BF after 11.5 months, loved it, cannot believe more mothers don't do it. I think the pump depends on how often and where you plan on pumping. I always at home but GF working used Medela, better travel system. The Aventi came with ...

Hi all...just back from our 2 month visit...23 in and 12.15 lbs...WOW we are getting big. Had all 4 shots, thought might be good to get them all over with and baby is sleeping soundly (with a little help from Tylenol) any way all looks good still sleeping good and breast feeding going well. Hope ...

Sounds like everyone is moving along fantastically! I said to my DH this morning "I didn't know I could ever be this happy" and it's true. We have our 1 month check up on Monday and I'll report updates then. Sydney is a very good girl, when I don't overstimulate her or she isn't overtired. The book ...

Stephanie-sorry no advice on sore nipples, mine tend to hurt only when she first goes on....have you tried the balms (lansoleum SP???). my 2 cents.

Jovi- congrats on your little girl....we are at 2 weeks and slowly getting adjusted.

Our update....Sydney was 2 weeks yesterday and had a great ...

Yeah....two have become three.....we are so thrilled and overwhelmed with emotion. Sydney Teresa and mom and dad were released yesterday at 2pm (Friday 2-1)

Baby Sydney was born on 1-30-08 at 5:01pm weighing 8 lbs 2 oz.

I started with contractions at 4am, water broke at 4:30am, we were admitted ...

Hi all...alot of false labor this weekend but no baby.......oh well, maybe doctor will give me some good news today....hopefully I'm dialated and all he needs to do is break my water and labor will start...could one of my predictions please come true????? Any way Jovi????? how are you doing? I am ...

Steph????? Any word, us later bloomers need to know!

Jovi- my DR was in labor & delivery and didn't see me but they don't do internals if your over 35 until 39 weeks.....Dr was very vague, I guess because he's not my own, just wait and see what happens, although he did seem to think that my Dr ...

woo hoo...Steph is in the OR now...crazy...sending positive thoughts for a quick labor!!! well Jovi it's just you and me! I have DR appt today, but she's not doing much. Some cramping, not much, she's moving alot but not like she was...no room! I don't think it's happening any time soon, DH and I ...

I'm with you Jovigal, my doc said they would allow me to BF right away...but I have in my head exactly what I want to happen, of course, the perfect labor and her latching on right away....but given my history....you never know, my doc just said to be flexible, what ever will be done will be done ...

Christine...nice labor story. I am still waiting...and waiting....and waiting.

I am still doing eliptical 5 DAW but it's too cold here to walk outside and my girl loves her fresh air walks. I really thought she would be out by now, she's very low and in position just isn't ready to make an ...

Steph & Jovigal.....and me all awaiting our beautiful babies! I finished work last Monday and preped all week for the shower which was Sat--50+ people and a success as far as I'm concerned. DH even won the Texas Hold "em tourny at the end of the night!

I'm glad everyone is enjoying their new babies ...

wannabeone......you must be pulling your hair out!!! Good luck, hopefully it'll be soon. Did you think you'd go this long?

TansRN- sounds like you had a nice and relaxing one...very nice

we are getting down to the wire and things just aren't getting done, DH is driving me nuts...oh well...Happy ...

Merry Christmas all...I hope you all had a wonderful time!

ChristineB...they always tell me she's not in position either, not to worry, they move into position fast when it's time...or so I'm told.

So many happy reasons for a wonderful holiday season! Congrats again to all the new mother's....how ...
