summermommy2004 |
hello |
|
11:05:13 |
Mod_ariana |
Some times I think dh and I are the most
cautious condom users on the planet! |
|
11:05:22 |
Mod_ariana |
galadriel2006 HI! |
|
11:05:27 |
Mod_ariana |
summermommy2004 Hi to you too! |
|
11:05:33 |
summermommy2004 |
:-) |
|
11:05:42 |
mwalton |
is today a formal one then? what's on
the agenda? |
|
11:05:55 |
galadriel2006 |
i can't stay for long, but i'm here for
at least about 15 minutes |
|
11:06:00 |
itsajenism |
hi |
|
11:06:15 |
galadriel2006 |
got class in under an hour |
|
11:06:16 |
summermommy2004 |
I only have a few minutes but I thought
I'd come before I have to go home to the
babe :) |
|
11:06:24 |
galadriel2006 |
hehe |
|
11:06:37 |
Mod_ariana |
mwalton no, it's a casual chat |
|
11:06:52 |
summermommy2004 |
Just finished class here... had a
Spanish quiz and got done a few minutes
early so I thought I'd check LJ while I
was otherwise unoccupied. hehe |
|
11:06:52 |
mwalton |
heh oh ok...i'm a little slow on the
uptake today ;) |
|
11:07:15 |
Mod_ariana |
Housepoet and I have both been so so
busy lately we haven't had time to come
up with formal agendas |
|
11:08:09 |
Mod_ariana |
mwalton how old is your baby? |
|
11:08:14 |
galadriel2006 |
hehe |
|
11:08:21 |
mwalton |
5 months...although with his sleep
pattern you'd think 3 weeks |
|
11:08:22 |
galadriel2006 |
i understand not having time |
|
11:08:40 |
Mod_ariana |
I feel like you've been around longer
than that |
|
11:08:46 |
mwalton |
we've been reading the no cry sleep
solution and implementing it..but
apparently since he can't read he
doesn't agree with the techniques ;) |
|
11:08:47 |
Mod_ariana |
I must be counting pregnancy time |
|
11:08:55 |
itsajenism |
haha |
|
11:09:12 |
Mod_ariana |
You know, I understand setting the stage
for sleep and all that |
|
11:09:28 |
Mod_ariana |
but I am a firm believer that kids will
sleep when they're ready |
|
11:10:00 |
Mod_ariana |
I never did any type of sleep training
either routines or CIO or anything like
that with my kids and William is 5 and
(most of the time) falls asleep just
fine |
|
11:10:08 |
summermommy2004 |
Me too... my 16 month old still doesn't
sleep through the night. I think I will
have a heart attack the night she does.
lol |
|
11:10:16 |
Mod_ariana |
James is almost 2 1/2 and he nurses to
sleep most nights but it works really
well for us |
|
11:10:38 |
Mod_ariana |
summermommy2004 both my kids started
sleeping through the night right about 2 |
|
11:10:41 |
mwalton |
i'd settle for him sleeping say 3 hours
at a block |
|
11:10:54 |
Mod_ariana |
do you co-sleep? |
|
11:10:56 |
galadriel2006 |
wow, i think i'd go crzay with that |
|
11:10:56 |
mwalton |
yep |
|
11:10:58 |
itsajenism |
that's the reason i didn't finish
reading the NCSS... i like nursing ds to
sleep at night |
|
11:11:14 |
summermommy2004 |
well... she starts out in her crib most
nights but she always ends up back with
me after 3 or 4 hours. |
|
11:11:16 |
itsajenism |
i don't see a reason to change something
that works well |
|
11:11:36 |
mwalton |
cosleeping is the only reason i haven't
actually been committed to an insane
assylum yet (since connor doesn't
believe in naps either ;) |
|
11:11:38 |
galadriel2006 |
we coslept with edmund until he was
firmly sleeping the night |
|
11:11:56 |
galadriel2006 |
then he moved to a crib, which was a
pretty painless process |
|
11:12:01 |
mwalton |
well that's not true..he takes 20 min
naps about 10 am |
|
11:12:12 |
Mod_ariana |
He sounds like my first son |
|
11:12:28 |
Mod_ariana |
He needs so much less sleep than the
average baby/person |
|
11:12:41 |
Mod_ariana |
It drives me crazy as I need MORE sleep
than the average |
|
11:13:13 |
mwalton |
see i don't need a ton..but i realized
yesterday that what I consider an
EXCELLENT night is one where he only
wakes up 4-5 times and i get 5 hours of
sleep |
|
11:13:23 |
Host_Housepoet |
mwalton |
|
11:13:29 |
Host_Housepoet |
how old is your son Connor? |
|
11:13:33 |
mwalton |
5 months |
|
11:13:35 |
summermommy2004 |
unfortunately i gotta hit the road
already ladies... time to go get the
little boober :) have a great chat!! |
|
11:13:37 |
Host_Housepoet |
and no naps? |
|
11:13:39 |
Host_Housepoet |
wow |
|
11:13:43 |
Mod_ariana |
summermommy2004 Bye! |
|
11:13:47 |
Host_Housepoet |
my Aiden doesn't nap ususally and he's
two! |
|
11:13:56 |
Nomentionofme |
hi everyone |
|
11:14:01 |
Mod_ariana |
Nomentionofme Hello! |
|
11:14:06 |
lifeisstatic |
How old were your kids when they started
sleeping in their own bed? |
|
11:14:08 |
ilovezoeystar |
Hey mammas! |
|
11:14:16 |
mwalton |
it's gotten better...now i usually get 2
20 min naps a day out of him (thanks to
the ncss) |
|
11:14:33 |
Mod_ariana |
William was 3 when he started sleeping
on his own semi-consistently (sp?) |
|
11:14:37 |
Host_Housepoet |
morning ilovezoeystar |
|
11:15:11 |
Mod_ariana |
but that was still in our room |
|
11:16:10 |
Nomentionofme |
i went to my LLL meeting last week and i
was so proud of one of the mothers....
right after Katrina hit she nursed 3
babies other than her own |
|
11:16:20 |
Mod_ariana |
Now he sleeps on his own in his own room
most of the time |
|
11:16:28 |
Nomentionofme |
because of the lack of formula and clean
water.. |
|
11:16:29 |
mwalton |
wow...good for her |
|
11:16:37 |
galadriel2006 |
wow... that's awesome! |
|
11:16:40 |
Mod_ariana |
Nomentionofme oh, that's so beautiful |
|
11:16:59 |
mwalton |
hope she's not suffering from oversupply
now! |
|
11:17:07 |
Nomentionofme |
she had been struggeling with supply
issues... not anymore :) |
|
11:17:21 |
galadriel2006 |
i guess not! |
|
11:17:27 |
mwalton |
lol yeah that's one way to up the supply
;) |
|
11:17:37 |
ilovezoeystar |
wow, thats amazing |
|
11:18:04 |
Mod_ariana |
Wow I wonder how much *time* she spent
nursing! |
|
11:18:15 |
Nomentionofme |
i believe a lot of mothers around here
will think twice about breastfeeding
now... |
|
11:18:16 |
Mod_ariana |
4 babies... that's a lot |
|
11:18:17 |
ilovezoeystar |
i thought about how lucky i'd be if I
lived there...having full nurishment for
my baby... |
|
11:19:45 |
galadriel2006 |
it must be so terrible to not be able to
feed your baby |
|
11:19:47 |
Nomentionofme |
well i evacuated but i kept thinking
when i would see the news footage wow
they would be okay if they would have
just breastfed their babies.... |
|
11:20:05 |
galadriel2006 |
just take things like the availability
of formula for granted |
|
11:20:19 |
Mod_ariana |
It's really sad. |
|
11:20:29 |
ilovezoeystar |
it so is |
|
11:20:38 |
Mod_ariana |
And it's hard to talk about it because
some people are so sensetive |
|
11:20:49 |
galadriel2006 |
especially since it's so danged
unnecessary |
|
11:21:10 |
ilovezoeystar |
i know, it makes me a little mad... |
|
11:21:16 |
Nomentionofme |
i mean i am in mississippi on the
gulfcoast and many places here the water
is still not safe |
|
11:22:03 |
lifeisstatic |
Well ladys I gtg. I have to get ready
for my wic appointment |
|
11:22:17 |
Mod_ariana |
lifeisstatic see you soon. Let us know
what happens with the next test!!!! |
|
11:22:19 |
Nomentionofme |
have a good day |
|
11:22:24 |
mwalton |
take care..hope you figure things out
with the test |
|
11:22:38 |
lifeisstatic |
will do *) |
|
11:24:36 |
Janice |
Nomentionofme - do you think the mom
from Katrina who nursed other babies,
would be interested in being interview
by a reporter, and sharing her story?
This needs to be documented |
|
11:24:53 |
Janice |
She should at least write it up for the
LLL magazine. |
|
11:24:57 |
galadriel2006 |
i agree |
|
11:25:31 |
Nomentionofme |
i am not sure i will talk to her soon
and find out.... i think she does need
to share the story though... |
|
11:25:38 |
Janice |
I'm sure I could find a reporter to
interview her, or even a bfing
researcher who would write up the case
for the medical journals |
|
11:26:11 |
galadriel2006 |
that would be a pretty clear witness
that women are made to be able to nurse
at least one baby |
|
11:26:18 |
Janice |
I know that sometimes researchers will
write up an unusual case like this and
submit it to the journals and get it
documented |
|
11:26:49 |
Nomentionofme |
most definately she is military so i
will try to get in tough with her this
afternoon... |
|
11:27:04 |
galadriel2006 |
military or militant? |
|
11:27:44 |
Nomentionofme |
she is a seabee in the navy so it has
been hard to get in tough with her with
all this post storm stuff |
|
11:27:51 |
Nomentionofme |
touch |
|
11:28:14 |
galadriel2006 |
gotcha |
|
11:28:38 |
Nomentionofme |
are you on livejournal also... once i
talk to her i couldpost there to get in
touch with you? |
|
11:28:51 |
Janice |
if she agrees. please email me at
momsformilk@sasktel.net |
|
11:28:54 |
Mod_ariana |
Nomentionofme is this your LJ name or is
it different? |
|
11:29:10 |
Janice |
I've never been on livejournal, I should
try it |
|
11:29:21 |
galadriel2006 |
yes |
|
11:29:29 |
galadriel2006 |
i think you would enjoy boob_nazis |
|
11:29:38 |
Janice |
I mostly hang at the bf advocacy boards
at mothering.com |
|
11:29:42 |
galadriel2006 |
janice, i think i know you from the nyc
nurse-out list |
|
11:30:01 |
galadriel2006 |

yahoo list |
|
11:30:03 |
Nomentionofme |

|
11:30:04 |
Janice |
yes, that was me that helped organize
the NYC nurse-in |
|
11:30:32 |
Mod_ariana |
So has anyone seen the latest Hathor
comic? |
|
11:30:39 |
Host_Housepoet |

|
11:30:42 |
Host_Housepoet |

|
11:30:44 |

|
11:31:26 |
Mod_ariana |
Sometimes when I first get the comics
they won't load. |
|
11:31:33 |
Mod_ariana |
I think everyone is hitting her server
at the same moment |
|
11:31:42 |
Mod_ariana |
but they usually do just fine a little
later |
|
11:31:49 |
quartercentury |
I just saw it now. |
|
11:32:17 |
Janice |
I just read it - are those the reals
sponsors of the study? |
|
11:32:20 |
quartercentury |
I don't know why I should be surprised,
but the fact that medical professionals
allow themselves to be swayed by shite
like that... |
|
11:32:24 |
quartercentury |
Grrr... |
|
11:32:33 |
Host_Housepoet |
I'm not surprised |
|
11:32:37 |
Mod_ariana |
A few of us have emailed Hathor trying
to get back up info |
|
11:32:38 |
Host_Housepoet |
big business runs things |
|
11:32:38 |
quartercentury |
Yep, from other stuff I read (mostly on
MDC) those are the sponsors. |
|
11:34:12 |

|
11:38:52 |
Mod_ariana |
Sometimes it's so hard |
|
11:39:03 |
Mod_ariana |
I usually know people not even by their
user names but by their icons |
|
11:39:08 |
Mod_ariana |
and there's no icons here!! |
|
11:39:34 |
Host_Housepoet |
maybe we should tell tina that we need
icons here |
|
11:39:35 |
quartercentury |
those people with lots of icons confuse
me |
|
11:39:35 |

So, lately I've been feeling like James
is heading down the road to weaning.
He's almost 2 1/2 |
|
11:41:39 |
Ca-Rinn |
wow |
|
11:41:42 |
mwalton |
AW...I'M SORRY |
|
11:41:54 |
Mod_ariana |
The way things are going are really
reminding me of when William weaned at
almost 3 |
|
11:41:56 |
mwalton |
sorry connor hit the caps lock |
|
11:42:04 |
Mod_ariana |
mwalton thank you. |
|
11:42:12 |
Mod_ariana |
It's a really weird feeling. |
|
11:42:27 |
Mod_ariana |
I mean I know I have at least several
more months of nursing left |
|
11:42:38 |
Mod_ariana |
but it's just reminding me that I won't
always be nursing. |
|
11:42:44 |
Mod_ariana |
Some day that part of my life will be
over |
|
11:42:46 |
Mod_ariana |
it's tough |

I don't want to still be having babies

frame |
|
11:46:06 |

Mod_ariana |

|
11:47:02 |
talula_fairie |
I was aiming for aprox 20-24 months
apart, and since it took two years to
concieve baby #1 I figured we should
start TTC early...I concived on the
first try o.O |
|
11:47:08 |
Mod_ariana |
You two could have babies together!! |
|
11:47:11 |
talula_fairie |

11:48:01 |
Ca-Rinn |

11:48:02 |
Mod_ariana |

|
11:48:08 |
talula_fairie |

breastfeeding |
|
11:48:09 |
talula_fairie |

|
11:48:21 |
Mod_ariana |
talula_fairie are you getting
babyslime's post? ;) |
|
11:48:25 |
doulasteph |
I always get scared at this point. My
second child torn my right breast and I
needed stitches to close it |
|
11:48:33 |
talula_fairie |
I am |
|
11:48:40 |
Ca-Rinn |
my mom said that my sister used to bite
her, and would make faces like what? im
not doing anything bad mommy.." at her" |
|
11:48:40 |
Mod_ariana |

Ariana, it was at the end of a feed, he
was 8 months old and bit down as he fell
off" and his 2 bottom teeth "tore" a
hole. My youngest is almost 6 months
and teething." |
|
11:49:35 |
doulasteph |
So Im getting "uptight" and it affects
my letdown" |
|
11:49:49 |
doulasteph |
Thanks talula |
|
11:49:49 |
talula_fairie |
eek |
|
11:49:53 |
Mod_ariana |
Yikes. I've had that happen but never
to that degree. It'd just hurt for a
minute and then be fine |
|
11:50:43 |
doulasteph |
Right now my youngest has no teeth, and
my 3rd never bit at all, but my almost 6
month old gums me hard. Trying to break
her of it now |
|
11:51:54 |
Mod_ariana |
Get the latch as good as you can now. |
|
11:52:01 |
doulasteph |
This weekend is my first night out.
GOing clubbing and hoping I
don'tdribble" through my clothes" |
|
11:52:02 |
Mod_ariana |
Don't allow lazy latching if at all
possible |
|
11:52:21 |
talula_fairie |
It happened to me the other day, and she
has one sharp tooth, and omg, combined
with being pregnant |
|
11:52:23 |
Mod_ariana |
It's a little like starting over again,
with good positioning and all that jazz |
|
11:52:26 |
talula_fairie |
I saw stars |
|
11:52:26 |
doulasteph |
Thanks Ariana. My MW told me the same
thing |
|
11:52:47 |
doulasteph |
Oh Talula, I feel for ya! |
|
11:53:02 |
doulasteph |
brb |
|
11:53:07 |
Mod_ariana |
I think there comes a time when children
are older where they literally aren't
able to latch correctly anymore |
|
11:53:10 |
talula_fairie |
doulasteph i feel for you too! it sounds
awful to get bitten constantly |
|
11:53:13 |
Mod_ariana |
it happened with my first |
|
11:53:18 |
Mod_ariana |
He was over 2 1/2 |
|
11:53:30 |
Mod_ariana |
and he just literally couldn't latch
right |
|
11:53:39 |
Mod_ariana |
He'd known how the week before and he'd
TRY |
|
11:53:52 |
Mod_ariana |
I could see him trying but it was like
his mout un-learned it |
|
11:54:11 |
Mod_ariana |
it just started happening more an dmore
frequently and then he fully weaned |
|
11:54:22 |
Mod_ariana |
and James has now started to do that too |
|
11:54:58 |
Mod_ariana |
But I think at 6 months you just go back
to the basics and make sure you do all
the right positioning/latchng things |
|
11:55:52 |
doulasteph |
Actually Talula, my son only bit me that
once! I think my SCREAM deterred any
further instances. I nursed almost
exclusively on the left for the
remainder of our nursing relationship.
I couldn't let down the same on the
other side |
|
11:56:14 |
Mod_ariana |
doulasteph well that's good. |
|
11:56:23 |
talula_fairie |
that's good |
|
11:56:24 |
Mod_ariana |
It kinda sounds like it was a bit of a
freak accident |
|
11:56:34 |
talula_fairie |
i haven't had problems with letdown
since |
|
11:56:46 |
talula_fairie |
I'm actually not sure if it was an
actual bite or she was trying to much
her way on badly |
|
11:56:57 |
talula_fairie |
i was nursing and watching tv and not
paying attention |
|
11:57:04 |
doulasteph |
YEah, he was falling asleep and you know
when you nod off and your head falls
back....it was kinda like that. But as
his head fell back his bit down hard to
hold on" to hte nipp;e" |
|
11:57:14 |
talula_fairie |
*shudder* |
|
11:57:25 |
Mod_ariana |
I totally know waht you're talking abotu
doulasteph |
|
11:57:25 |
doulasteph |
me too talula |
|
11:57:32 |
doulasteph |
watching TV.... |
|
11:58:00 |
Mod_ariana |
Once we were nursing in bed and I fell
asleep and tried to roll over while
James was still attached |
|
11:58:11 |
Ca-Rinn |
owwwww... |
|
11:58:14 |
Host_Housepoet |
it's coming up on that time ladies, but
please feel free to continue chatting :) |
|
11:58:15 |
Mod_ariana |
He held on for dear life!! And he's
over 2 so he has a full mouth of teeth |
|
11:58:27 |
Ca-Rinn |
>< |
|
11:58:28 |
Mod_ariana |
I woke everyone in the bed up with my
scream |
|
11:58:32 |
quartercentury |
Youch. |
|
11:58:41 |
Mod_ariana |
But it hurt for one minute and then was
fine |
|
11:58:49 |
doulasteph |
I think our incidents would have been
enough to killa nursing relationship for
some. I had an ER doc tell me He's 8
months he doesnt' NEED to nurse. You
can switch to formula now..." Um NO!" |
|
11:58:51 |
Mod_ariana |
Maybe I have steel boobs |
|
11:59:02 |
Mod_ariana |
UGH |
|
11:59:03 |
doulasteph |
OW Ariana! |
|
11:59:09 |
quartercentury |
Ugh. Such bad doctor advice. |
|
11:59:10 |
Mod_ariana |
I hate medical discouragement of BF |
|
11:59:14 |
Mod_ariana |
It really gets me |
|
11:59:25 |
Ca-Rinn |
yeah, me too |
|
11:59:29 |
talula_fairie |
me too |
|
11:59:34 |
Mod_ariana |
Especially since most docs obviously
don't know *anything* about BF! |
|
11:59:42 |
talula_fairie |
esp the way the nurses were to me when
my baby was a newborn |
|
12:00:04 |
talula_fairie |
she was in the NICU for four days to
rule out sebsis because she was born
with a fever (she was fine) and i swear
the nurses nearly ruined my bfing
relationship |
|
12:00:14 |
talula_fairie |
it took me three months to repair it all
the way after what they did |
|
12:00:32 |
doulasteph |
My formerfamily doc was great. He was
blunt but good info. Stephanie, that's
what they were MADE for. They weren't
MADE to look good in a push up bra." He
said this when I was complaining about
unlatching a nursing bra...." |
|
12:00:32 |
talula_fairie |
:what's the mothering topic today |
|
12:00:34 |
talula_fairie |

12:01:11 |
Mod_ariana |

|
12:01:26 |
quartercentury |
That sounds right to me |
|
12:01:33 |
quartercentury |
But I've got to go! |
|

12:02:20 |
doulasteph |
Ok, I have to admit somethingpersonal.
It freaks me out thatmy DH is NOT
freaked out by leaking boobs during
relations". My ex-dh would not TOUCH my
boobs while I was nursing my first 2" |
|
12:02:48 |
talula_fairie |
I never leaked during that time, but my
hubby doesnt seem freaked out by
touching them or whatever |
|
12:02:50 |
Mod_ariana |
Well, I think leaking during sex is
great |
|
12:02:53 |
talula_fairie |
I am teh one who doesn't like it |
|
12:03:01 |
talula_fairie |
it wierds me out! i don't know why |
|
12:03:04 |
Mod_ariana |
Often it means that you've had an orgasm |
|
12:03:13 |
Mod_ariana |
DH should be happy about that! ;) |
|
12:03:20 |
talula_fairie |
it's like it reminds me of nursing and I
dunno. it's hard to separate the two in
my mind |
|
12:03:39 |
Mod_ariana |
I can understand that some people feel
like that |
|
12:03:50 |
talula_fairie |
Ihope when I'm done nursing I'll have my
boobs back again. they're kind of
desexualized to me now! |
|
12:04:03 |
Mod_ariana |
I feel like preganancy, birth,
breastfeeding, parenting -- it's all
really part of sexuality |
|
12:04:22 |
Mod_ariana |
It's all linked. Obviously you don't
have the same feelings for your children
as your husband |
|
12:04:34 |
Mod_ariana |
but it's all part of the circle of life |
|
12:04:38 |
doulasteph |
I don't even have to orgasm to have
minor leaking....just feeling good". He
is not thrown off at all. It's not like
he's nursing on me but he doesn't avoid
either. I should really be happy about
that. But still getting used to it." |
|
12:05:09 |
talula_fairie |
I'm not even squeamish or anything, it
just doesnt feel the same |
|
12:05:14 |
talula_fairie |
*shrug* |
|
12:05:17 |
talula_fairie |
ok i have a baby to tend to |
|
12:05:23 |
talula_fairie |
she's about to have a hernia |
|
12:05:28 |
Mod_ariana |
You can let him know that it's a little
weird to you so he might want to go slow |
