Re: Breast feeding


  • So my answers;
    I love bfing older babies there's so much less stress when your not the only source of food for them, but it's a time they still snuggle with you.

    Lucas had been up 2 to 5 times a night but the last three nights he

    A has been sleeping through the night for the past couple of months. We did do some sleep training to put her t

  • Four times a day on my days off with LO and morning & night on days I work. It's going great I'm definitely noticing a drop in supply based on what I'm pumping at work now but when I nurse it seems to be enough. I think it's just due to LO taking i

  • How it's going? DD has been losing interest for some time now so we're in the process of weaning.  We are down to once a day in the am, as I noticed at bedtime she would fight me about BFing or fall asleep.  She's been on WCM since about 9.5

  • Still breastfeeding and very happy that I was able to keep up my supply after I went back to work at 8 months. My supply has definitely been dropping though and my freezer stash is very low. I'm going to keep at it though and hope to make it a bit long

  • We're still going.  I work full time and in the last few weeks my daytime pumping has plummeted from 12oz per day to 6-8oz per day.  Last week I used up the last of my freezer stash so she's now getting 1 formula bottle per day at D

  • We are still BF and I enjoy it but we would like to TTC so I want to wean at 1 year for that reason only.  It's so much easier now that in the beginning!

  • Still BFing. Still pumping 2xs at work.

    DS moved to 1 feeding a night about 2 weeks ago. He did 3 nights in a row of 11pm - 7:30am. YAY! The past few nights he's been up 2-3x a night, but he's cutting a molar and getting over an ear i

    How it's going? Meh, when ds and i are together i think he is getting enough but while at daycare he has to take 12 bottles of formula a day b/c i can't keep up. I really enjoy nursing

  • We are still going strong too. I don't plan to wean until she is ready. She is my one and only so we will BF until she weans herself unless we reach a point where I feel it's necessary.

    no antibiotics yet but she does seem to have a slight ear in

  • I still nurse morning and night. I gave up pumping at work this week. I was sure we'd make a year until last week when some majorly stressful events occurred. My supply took a big hit and then my first PP period showed up yesterday. However, I have 1300 o
  • Oops, forgot about the sleeping part. DD usually sleeps through the night and has been since around 4 months. Of course teething/colds can throw us off, but I don't remember the last time I nursed her in the MOTN.

    Sorry for the second post.

    Still breastfeeding?  How it's going? We are!  It's going great.  It's such a rewarding thing, and I try to not sound preachy, so I don't talk about it in person much (or on FB, etc), but it's truly one of my favorite things about
