[QUOTE=wendypf;13417727]Sometimes I think people default to boy. Unless the baby has earings. [QUOTE] I hope this is it. Unless DD is wearing all pink people think she's a boy. Granted she wears a lot of gender neutral clothing and I...

You're definitely not the only one! DD was 6 months old last week and she's still EBF. I WOH full time and pump for her. I don't see that ending any time soon since I don't plan on giving her solids until she shows all the signs of being...

If I'm drinking enough to satisfy my thirst its 90-120 oz a day. I know Dr. Sears says not drinking enough won't hurt your supply but I've noticed it really does affect mine. I have a hard time getting enough to drink on the weekends. My...

Here's the one I was thinking of, its from a talk given by Elder Dallin H. Oaks during the October 2007 conference: "Church leaders should be aware that Church meetings and activities can become too complex and burdensome if a...

Its frustrating isn't it? You're supposed to be able to co-sleep and just pop a nipple in and go back to sleep. Personally I still think co-sleeping is still worth it. I hate waking up to a crying/screaming child. At least this way I...

At least I'm not the only one. I was starting to think DD was just weird. Actually I think the problem is that she's very, very stubborn (just like her mom and dad ). She wants things to be the way she's used to and hates changes. One...

I know it can be scary when you WOH full-time and really, really want to BF your baby too. It can be done! I've been back at work almost 3 months (since DD was 12 wks) and things have gone much better than I had feared they would. My...

I could use some help mamas. My DD will not nurse side-lying at night. As in won't. She can nurse in that position. She'll do it during the day, for the 8 am feed on the weekend, just not during the night. If I try to roll her on her...

Just wanted to pop in and see how everyone is doing. Things are good at my multi-generational home, but things may change. My sister and her husband and baby are currently living in my mom's house, while she's living with us. They're...
