you don't really have any thing to worry about. the breastmilk that you produce for him contains lots of antibodies that you are exposed to, which in turn builds up his immune system.
just keep nursing him to keep him hydrated. also, it is safe for you to take tylenol so i think you should take that to help with your fever. you might notice a ...

i took fenugreek before but i didn't really see much of a difference, plus it made me smell like pancakes/ maple syrup! lol i found Mother love More Milk Plus & it made a huge difference!!!! you can get it on luckyvitamins.com & its alot cheaper than anywhere else. i took the pill version... the tincture tastes bad & the pills just seem more ...

well, your DS could be going through a growth spurt... or he could be like me DD & just love to comfort nurse lol... i know if we are at home all day, she tends to want to nurse more (probably out of boredom) but if we're out & about running errands or whatever, she can go a good 4 or 5 hours without nursing. she is easily distracted so sometimes ...

hi, im am a 1st time mom (SAHM) & i have the medela pump in style. i wish i would've gotten it before DD was born but i had another brand & it was awful! i didn't get the PIS until DD was about 3 months old. i know several friends who started pumping from day one (with the PIS) & all of them had a beautiful abundant supply. the PIS is pretty much ...

i have found motherlove's more milk plus on luckyvitamins.com they don't help local stores but they are definitely much cheaper than going to whol foods or buying them straight from the motherlove website :) luckyvitamins had it shipped to me within a few days & i highly recommend them!

you probably could... i've done that a few times (when i was tight on time) but the problem i ran into was the milk drying up & getting all flaky in the yellow part & making the membranes stick together. i started just rinsing them with water between pumping sessions if i knew i was going to use them again in a few hours. the only thing i would be ...

i would think thats not that big of a problem, honestly. my right breast has always produced more than my left, regardless of which side i nursed on. i hear its pretty common. i think as long as you're still getting a decent amount on the ''low'' side, everything should be fine. if you're really concerned about it, contact a La Leche League leader ...

ok, so i just got back from the LLL meeting & they said to make sure you pump for 5 minutes more after milk has stopped coming out & also if you can to rent a hospital-grade pump. those are the best at getting your supply up the fastest & most efficient way. so i would say the medela symphony maybe??? so i hope this helps all of you mommies (and ...

i took reglan (metoclopramide) twice before but while i was on it, i was very ''down in the dumps'' then a LLL leader told me it can cause depression! which makes sense so i personally would not recommend it. the first time i took it, it helped with my milk supply alot but then second time...not so much. fenugreek & Motherlove's MORE MILK PLUS ...
