Let me begin by saying that I'm so aware of how blessed I am to have such a problem, but, ladies, it's getting old! V is 8 weeks old, nursing well, and my supply is settling down somewhat. I'm a genetic oversupplier/forceful letdowner...

My first tip is not what you asked, but I'm awesome like that, so: I'd hold off on solids for a bit more if your kiddo doesn't like any texture. That whole "food before one is just for fun" thing and all. More to the...

Aww, momma, it's okay. I have an 8 week old who has been hellbent on looking at the tv or my laptop, and it's already making me crazy. We plan on being zero intentional tv for the LOs until 2 at the very earliest, so I can absolutely...

LOL my 7 week old does this too- she pounds her little fists on my chest when she unlatches due to heavy letdown. I think it's pretty cute (for now, anyhow!)

I'll be the voice of pseudo-distension and say that some babies just have terrible skin for a while, and that, for some babies, the clearing of skin when momma drops a high-allergen food, is coincidental. IMO, severe facial acne...
