12:08:02 |
Host_Housepoet |
well here is an interesting story that I
came across on MDC this morning |
|

I think your rain has travelled down
south to me |
|

|
12:08:20 |
irangel |
Make the rain come here, it's hot and we
need rain |
|
12:08:39 |
Mod_ariana |
irangel If I could I gladly would |
|
12:08:46 |
Mod_ariana |
I don't like the rain. It traps us
inside |
|
12:09:14 |

|
12:09:36 |
Host_Housepoet |
sorry about that |
|
12:11:08 |
Mod_ariana |
I just don't understand why people so
concerned with healty eating would stop
BF |
|
12:11:51 |
Host_Housepoet |
ME EITHER |
|
12:12:08 |
mwalton |
yeah..that's just..odd |
|
12:12:24 |
doulasteph |
Hey ladies....I just found out that my
MEaghan hates asparagus! I tried
nursing her about 2 hours later and she
screamed down the house and spit out the
milk! |
|
12:12:46 |
Mod_ariana |
wow, that's extreme |
|
12:12:50 |
Host_Housepoet |
oh my, that must have been a site |
|
12:12:54 |
Host_Housepoet |
sight even |
|
12:14:02 |
doulasteph |
I always new asparagus made your urine
smell funny but apparently it had a huge
effect on my breastmilk |
|
12:14:25 |
Mod_ariana |
that makes sense that something that's
change your urine would change your milk |
|
12:14:41 |
irangel |
Hmmm. I haven't noticed that today and
ate a ton of asparagus last night. |
|
12:15:00 |
doulasteph |
No more asparagus :( :( I LOVE
asparagus |
|
12:15:04 |
Mod_ariana |
Someone was just talking about asparagus
in the breastfeeding community |
|
12:15:09 |
Host_Housepoet |
when I would eat garlic, my son's next
BM would always have bright green flecks
in it |
|
12:15:09 |
Mod_ariana |
saying it's a diruretic |
|
12:15:13 |
Host_Housepoet |
it never changed |
|
12:15:15 |
ourwiefamily |
I was stunned by what she replaced the
breastfeeding with ... wheat grass,
almond and coconut juice? I wonder if
they made that up or if it really is
advocated as a breastmilk substitute? |
|
12:15:37 |
ourwiefamily |
I mean ... if the family created that
formula on their own (not if the media
made it up) |
|
12:15:47 |
Host_Housepoet |
yes, that's just not alright |
|
12:15:51 |
doulasteph |
I dunno. Not sure that I would be
comfortable giving mybaby coconut
milk.... |
|
12:16:02 |
mwalton |
ok, i know spurts are usually on the 3s
and 6s so someone PLEASE tell me there
is a 6 month growth spurt..cause connor
is acting all wonky again |
|
12:16:19 |
Mod_ariana |
mwalton Totally |
|
12:16:37 |
irangel |
I'd be concerned about the almond juice
with the allergy threat it could pose |
|
12:16:48 |
doulasteph |
My Meaghan just turned 6 months too and
she's backin bed all night with us
nursing quite frequently. I'm so glad
we co-sleep. I couldn't get up and down
everytime. |
|
12:17:04 |
irangel |
We definitely went through a 6mos growth
spurt with both kids |
|
12:17:23 |
mwalton |
thank heavens..otherwise I'd probably
lose my mind...without cosleeping I
would have lost the leftover fragments
months ago anyway ;) |
|
12:17:30 |
ourwiefamily |
My kids do growth spurts when and how
they want to do growth spurts. ;) Mine
didn't necessarily follow the book's
schedule! |
|
12:17:42 |
irangel |
Last night was the first night my 6mos
old" wasn't eating every 2hrs. Instead,
he went 4hrs" |
|
12:18:34 |
ourwiefamily |
Other things I've found increase nursing
in my kids sometimes is teething pain,
ear pain (from infectioni or just
irritation), and illness |
|
12:18:36 |
mwalton |
yeah connor doesn't turn 6 months for 2
more weeks..but he's hit all the spurts
a little early..so i was hoping that was
what this was |
|
12:18:45 |
doulasteph |
lol Walton. Its so funny that the
firstyear of a babies life we, as
parents, live a semi-conscious, half
asleep but happily baby focused life. |
|
12:19:34 |
irangel |
That's just supposed to last the first
year? |
|
12:19:37 |
doulasteph |
Has anyone's baby had an ear infection
yet? My last 2 kids haven't had any
infections as of yet (touch wood). |
|
12:19:39 |
ourwiefamily |
My youngest slept through the night
almost from day one ... I almost didn't
know what to do w/ myself (I tried to
change it, but she was getting enough
milk during the day and it was too hard
for *me* to wake up to an alarm clock at
night, then wake her) |
|
12:19:40 |
mwalton |
steph:that's for certain! |
|
12:20:23 |
ourwiefamily |
my baby has had some ear troubles ...
but we use Wally's Ear Oil and it works
like magic |
|
12:20:36 |
Host_Housepoet |
I've never heard of that |
|
12:20:39 |
Host_Housepoet |
where can you get it? |
|
12:20:47 |
doulasteph |
My Meaghan was sleeping through the
night. I would nurse her and put her in
her co-sleeper by the bed but each time
a growth spurt comes she just comes to
bed with me and stays there. |
|
12:20:47 |
Host_Housepoet |
I always used breastmilk |
|
12:20:48 |
ourwiefamily |
Got it at our local health food store |
|
12:20:58 |
mwalton |
no ear troubles yet but he's only not
quite 6 months |
|
12:21:00 |
irangel |
My oldest had one at 11mos and another
one at 31mos but that's it |
|

Nursing Mom's Diet May Be Key to Cutting
Colic |

All these links are located at

|
12:25:51 |
sugarcoated_poison_apple |
and not really surprising, when you
think about it ... i mean, any other
infection in a mother triggers her body
to help keep the baby from getting sick |
|
12:26:37 |
ourwiefamily |
btdt .. I had to cut dairy out for a
child who had a severe cows milk
allergy. Onions for another child.
Collic gone! |
|
12:27:00 |
Host_Housepoet |
exactly |
|
12:27:08 |
Host_Housepoet |
it's nice to see this information is
getting out there |
|
12:27:36 |
mwalton |
we've been lucky and not been visited by
the dreaded colic...I think it's God's
way of compromising for sending me a kid
who doesn't believe in sleeping ;) |
|
12:27:44 |
irangel |
isn't colic technically supposed to be
unexplained crying though. if it was
because of the mom's diet I wouldn't
consider that colic personally |
|
12:27:52 |
sugarcoated_poison_apple |
one of my sisters had colic ... i wonder
if my mom knew anything back then (21
years ago) about cutting out foods ... |
|
12:28:36 |
Mod_ariana |
irangel I think the deal is that people
don't think of diet so the food
sensitivities are unexplained"" |
|
12:29:10 |
irangel |
that would make sense then |
|
12:29:22 |

land on all sides (live in central US) |
|
12:39:12 |
Host_Housepoet |
good good. |
|
12:39:19 |
Host_Housepoet |
have your company install a T1 for you |
|
12:39:27 |
Host_Housepoet |
oh no |
|
12:39:28 |
mwalton |
see but california beaches are
different, crowded, littered, etc not as
much access, in oregon they are all
publicly owned, there are some great out
of the way ones, and they
are...sigh..beautiful |
|
12:39:33 |
Host_Housepoet |
I could not live in middle america |
|
12:39:38 |
Darcy |
Sooo pricey to have a T1 ($450 or so a
month) |
|
12:39:40 |
Host_Housepoet |
I would die if I wasn't close to the
beach |
|
12:39:42 |
Birth_Junky |
Yeah, the beaches in Oregon are much
nicer than the beaches in Washington . .
. |
|
12:39:46 |
Darcy |
Beach is important. |
|
12:39:47 |
mwalton |
course the ocean is COLD..not that that
has stopped me from going in..even as
late as November... |
|
12:39:48 |
Birth_Junky |
We have SOME good ones, but most of ours
are REALLY rocky. |
|
12:39:48 |
Mod_ariana |
mwalton I'd like that kind of beach
better |
|
12:39:53 |
Mod_ariana |
I like cliffy beaches |
|
12:40:06 |
irangel |
Come down to Texas, the gulf is still
warm right now |
|
12:40:06 |
Mod_ariana |
Where you dont' actually have to touch
sand or water |
|
12:40:06 |
sugarcoated_poison_apple |
ha ... the last time i went to the
beach, i was in israel ... the
mediterranean sea is fun to swim in |
|
12:40:29 |
sugarcoated_poison_apple |
i've been to the dead sea, too ... it's
*weird* and the water is really nasty |
|
12:40:37 |
mwalton |
ariana:you'd love Oregon then..lots of
cliffy beaches..oh and Haceda Head has a
lighthouse with a ghost even :) (and a
cliffy beach) |
|
12:40:47 |

ooo, i love haunted lighthouses |

Cape Kiwanda is one of the most
beautiful places on the planet. |
|
12:40:58 |
Mod_ariana |
That sounds neat |
|
12:41:12 |
Birth_Junky |
My fave is still the peninsula up
north--where you can walk on the beach
OR through a rainforest, and camp in
between! |
|
12:41:48 |

I can go sit by a river that likes to
flood. |
|
12:41:57 |
ourwiefamily |
That's sort of like the ocean. hehehe |
|
12:42:23 |
mwalton |
heh..I live in a desert..closest I get
are a few creeks they have the audacity
to call rivers here..it's saaaad |
|
12:42:51 |
sugarcoated_poison_apple |
um ... our back yard is kinda like a
swamp ... because there's an old
filled-in swimming pool and we're the
lowest yard where we are, so everyone
else's yard drains into ours ... |
|
12:43:16 |
Host_Housepoet |
ew |
|
12:43:22 |

ick, i'm sorry! |

i grew up in a house in the middle of
nowhere, and we were right near a river
... we had a creek in our front yard
that fed into it, and a little creek
pool that we could swim in when we were
little ... it was nifty |
|
12:44:25 |
Darcy |
if so, what kinds of blood tests did you
have run to give to the receiving
family? |
|
12:44:25 |
irangel |
I have |
|
12:44:45 |
sugarcoated_poison_apple |
i've wanted to donate, but i don't have
the supply for it |
|
12:44:54 |
irangel |
I donated to a milkbank and they just
ran a whole slew of tests. I didn't
donate privately |
|
12:44:55 |
Darcy |
I gots all the milkies. |
|
12:45:33 |
Darcy |
I was wondering if I should do a
donation to milk bank to start and let
them run the tests. . . |
|
12:45:33 |
Mod_ariana |
Darcy have you thought of donating to a
bank? |
|
12:45:40 |
irangel |
I couldn't tell you without my sheet of
paper what all the different tests were
for but I'd imagine you could call up a
milk bank and see what they test for and
then discuss it with the family |
|
12:45:44 |
Host_Housepoet |
she's going to donate to Suki Ariana |
|
12:45:47 |
Darcy |
and then that would be reassurance for
the family I'm donating for privately. |
|
12:45:56 |
mwalton |
I almost did..today even..but the mom
ended up having a neighbor with more
than enough..she's going to call me if
she needs more though |
|
12:46:47 |
Mod_ariana |
ohhh, I didn't know you had someone
lined up to get the milk. |
|
12:47:43 |
Host_Housepoet |
well, I'm going to try and get Aiden to
see a doc, then I can sign up for wic
again and rent a pump |
|
12:47:43 |
magdalene74 |
hiya |
|
12:47:44 |
mwalton |
was kinda disappointed actually..and
amused considering how bad my supply was
for the first few weeks of connor's
life, that I would have enough of a
stash to help someone out |
|
12:47:49 |
Host_Housepoet |
then get my supply up and we can donate
together |
|
12:48:02 |
Darcy |
I have to increase my supply somewhat,
but I'm guessIng I'm good for 10 oz/day. |
|
12:48:02 |
Host_Housepoet |

|
12:56:07 |
mwalton |
darcy:doesn't it crack you up when
people ask how old, you tell them and
they are kinda shocked..like..um wow i
thought much older ;) |
|
12:56:25 |
Mod_ariana |
mwalton That is so annyoing after a
while |
|
12:56:34 |
Darcy |
Yes! They always look at him like he's
a delayed 8 month old. . . |
|
12:56:35 |
mwalton |
a lady at the post office yesterday when
Connor was smiling and babbling" at her
asked if he could say any words yet" |
|
12:56:40 |
magdalene74 |
trust me its even more annoying when its
the other way around.. |
|
12:56:44 |
Darcy |
like - oh it's so sad he can't walk or
crawl yet. . . |
|
12:57:01 |
Darcy |
They always want to give me kids menus
at restaurants. |
|
12:57:11 |
Mod_ariana |
magdalene74 I bet |
|
12:57:16 |
Darcy |
He likes to eat the kids menu, though,
so that's ok. |
|
12:57:18 |
mwalton |
lol :) our special *not so little* guys |
|
12:57:32 |
Mod_ariana |
And my idiot ped. told me William was
heavy" for his age" |
|
12:57:48 |
Mod_ariana |
He's in the 95% for height and weight |
|
12:57:49 |
mwalton |
yeah connor is a paper afficianando as
well..the more important the paper..the
tastier the sheet |
|
12:57:57 |
magdalene74 |
Mary is only 21 pounds and 30 inches
long.. i get shes so tiny... " and
occasionally even "too tiny.. dont you
feed her??"" |
|
12:57:59 |
magdalene74 |
grr. |
|
12:58:15 |
Darcy |
That would piss me off, Marie. |
|
12:58:15 |
Mod_ariana |
magdalene74 You should say oh! I knew I
was forgetting something"" |
|
12:58:25 |
Darcy |
You should tell them that your baby
thinks they eat too much. |
|
12:58:26 |
mwalton |
marie:that's so annoying..I'm sorry |
|
12:58:30 |
magdalene74 |
heh ariana.. yep at times i do say that
LOL |
|
12:58:34 |
Mod_ariana |
hehe |
|
12:58:39 |
mwalton |
I'd probably say somthing similiar..but
then I'm evil |
|
12:58:52 |
Mod_ariana |
We went to a playdate at the park and
these girls were 5 and 7 and my boys are
2 and 5 |
|
12:58:53 |
mwalton |
(about the forgetting something")" |
|
12:58:55 |
Mod_ariana |
They were the same sizes |
|
12:59:12 |
magdalene74 |
it does.. i mean shes beautiful and
perfect but every once in a while you
get a butthead that thinks every baby
should be the same. |
|
12:59:31 |
magdalene74 |
I love chubby babies |
|
12:59:47 |
Darcy |
My friends baby was 15 lbs at 12 months
and totally bald and could walk. . . |
|
12:59:50 |
Mod_ariana |
I always was jealous of the cute tiny
girls at teen and adult ages |
|
12:59:53 |
Mod_ariana |
she'll be one of those |
|
12:59:59 |
Darcy |
It looked freaky. . . like the dancing
baby on Ally McBeal. |
|
13:00:06 |
magdalene74 |
ewwww darcy |
|
13:00:20 |
mwalton |
see my ped is pretty good about it
because she keeps saying he's staying on
his curve..(he was born 9 lb 12 oz) and
at his 4 month appt was 27 inches..so
95th all around |
|
13:00:45 |
magdalene74 |
yeah see thats whats important, staying
on their curve and being height weight
proportionate |
|
13:01:03 |
Host_Housepoet |
ok I need to take care of a smelly dipe
and the chat is over, feel free to stay
and continue chatting |
|
13:01:06 |
