Hello,
I had a baby on September 1. I exclusively breast fed for two weeks and she was not gaining weight. I tried for a week to supplement with formula and she still lost weight after the third week. Then I started giving her more formula and she began gaining weight. At the time I breastfeeding almost every hour or more. I also pumped and the most I have ever gotten at one time after 45 mins was barely three ounces. I have now done mostly formula, but I still get a little discharge from my nipples if I sqeeze them. Is there any way I can get my supply back up to do breastfeeding exclusively? I have a good medela pump and I work 40 hrs a week, where I could go home for max an hour a day to pump. Also, just so you know, my bra size never changed during of after pregnancy. Is that normal?

Alright, I had heard its illegal in Michigan unless your disabled. I am not luckily but always wanted to hunt with a crossbow. Then, I went to my local outdoor shop where they sell crossbows and asked him and he said "you can hunt with a crossbow in Michigan legally and without a disability during rifle season" Anyone know which is right? Thanks

In the states they tell us that in Canda because of socialized medacine you get poor care and could be on waiting list for months just to see the doctor is this true or is just a bunch of bs that they feed us?How would you rate your healthcare?

But once I get up, the pain goes away for the rest of the day. (No history of knee problems.) For the past 20+ years they have always popped when I get out of bed, or get up from sitting for a while in a chair.
I have sleep apnea, do not use my CPAP regularly, and am currently being treated for lower back pain.

My baby boy is a truly happy and energetic baby......... Always playing, trying to grab things and cuddling........ That is when he is being held, not neccesarily be me, but by anone. It seems like he wants a pair of legs to get around. I've bought him playmats and I get down on the floor with him, but no sirey. He wants to be high and on the same level as us.... the older ones :) He is a little strong willed so letting him cry it out and entertain himself is not an option. If he's entertained, in the stroller, the car seat (you know - on the go.......) he's fine, but I can't even put him down on the floor to watch tv. He tries standing up using whatever he can find (the bedskirt, furniture, my pants :) ) - but he's hit himself pretty bad like that... I've caught him crawling a few times so I know he can do it. But if I'm watching he will sit pretty with his hands up waiting for me to get him, no matter how long he has to wait. Any suggestions on how 2 help him b more indep Thx!

My hubby got mad for me not paying attention to him since Thanksgiving(that's what he said). We had full home from relatives that where home to spend Thanksgiving & a weeding. But still we were fine or that's what I thougth we even went to the movies alone on Friday. BUt on Sat. we were just arriving at the weeding and he got mad & offended me. We left the party and had a big discusison. Igot really mad because he knew I wanted to be at the weeding cuz most of the family was going to be there & most of them I didn't see them since 2 or 3 yrs ago. I couln't go back alone to the party because he hid the keys so we stay howm. And the rest of the weekend was ruined. I am still ready mad cuz I really wanted to be there.But t because of him we couldn't be..NOW he is sorry & wants to make it up.. the problem is ,time can't go back and I don't know for how long I will be mad. I can forgive but can't forget.. What to do? I feel sad and mad too! Should I just let it go like that & forget it?

I have tried to find a job for the past year. I am over 50, only have office experience in a avaiation factory. No real skills. I was laid off in 2002 from Boeing. I went to college and graduated with a nursing degree. I couldn't pass the state board so I gave up. I have hurt my back and can't lift over 25-30 pounds. Last Oct, I had open heart surgery to replace a heart valve and my sternum is not growing together properly so the weight restriction stays. Nursing is out of the question now. The degree I am seeking now is in Forensic Science-a Bachelor's Degree. I would be able to teach in college, to work in any chemical lab, hospital lab, forensic center, coronor's office, etc. But I will also be 3 years older. Hence my delimena. Do I stay in school or quit do the contract or temporary job work? I have been turned down for jobs because of my credit and I'm sure my age. I am on financial aide, only support myself and have tried even p-time job and none. Any suggestions

well here it goes,
most days we me and my husband go out w/or w/out or child...



i get this.. either a crowd around making gestures,bumping into me,extreme staring,and then when it comes to our child strangers act like it is okay to speak to our child in such a way like they actually know out child.

the other day a family of women attempted to start an arguement stating" i was all up on - - - - head" when in fact i was watching out child and waiting on my husband and this female stepped right in front of me,i mean i could of licked her if i stuck my tounge out.. instead of her walking around(plenty of room) she decided not to.
and so i turned my head as she was doing so and then a large group of females decided to eyeball me and talk "smack"

Ok, the last two days, I've had a hard time breathing properly. Like I feel like I have to take a deep breath most of the time but when I try, I can't seem to take a deep breath. I have to keep trying and trying. It's getting cold and heading into winter season, and last winter, around December, I had similar problems with trouble breathing. Could this be caused somehow by the winter weather/coldness? What's going on?

I have an inhaler that was prescribed to me a couple years ago that I barely used. But the medicine in it expired last month. Should I still use it anyway?

I was offered a specific amount to fly across the country for an interview with this company and fronted the money myself, even though it was over the amount promised. I haven't heard a yes or no from the company yet but I really need the money as soon as possible to cover my basic expenses. It seemed incredibly rude to mention it while I was there and I would still like to leave this company with a good impression of me, even if I am not offered the position. What is the most polite way of asking?
