Pregnancy & Parenting - 25 June 2006

My neice in law. Ultrasouns showed an issue with the baby's kidneys.Since then she has had test after test. No amnioctic fluid (or very little) they thought the baby was at 32 weeks but he is too small.he is at 30 weeks. waiting 4 more with complete bedrest and maybe induce then. 2 bladder taps turned out fine. third on one tuesday. The mom is on total bedrest due to the tear (they are guessing) in the sac. So many doctors so little bedside manner! They toss around terms like fetal death so casually and it just destroys the parents and the whole family. Theyve been to GBMC Univerity hosp (Baltimore) and CHOP right now they are settling at Johns Hopkins and seems to be ok. Im not sure what I am asking just blowing off a little steam its so frustrating. Potter Syndrome? Is he a dwarf? They say yes they say no. So heart wrenching
Please pray for them

My daughter, 2 weeks, is basically a bf baby. She did get two supplements of Enfamil (recommending by her pedi) when we thought she wasn't gaining satifactorily and it was suggested to us, but it broke my heart to give it to her. She has a good latch and sucked vigorously. She drained my breast of three ounces of milk one day. Lately, however, her bf sessions have decreased to maybe 15 mins max, vs. her usual 30. This was after she was fed by my inlaws using a (good) Avent bottle filled with expressed breast milk. They were helping us out so that we could have just a little sleep after a week of sleepless nights. Is this decreased vigor at the breast due to nipple confusion? I want to continue to bf at the breast, but the milk from the bottle is very very helpful at times. I fear it might be too late. Thanks. I'm a new mom and of course, inexperienced. Thanks.

My husband and I have been trying to concieve for 7 months now. I am due for my period June 30th. I had a light spotting on the 21st, 9 days before due, and thought it was my period. When I took out my tampon there was no blood at all. I was hoping it was the light spotting I have always read about. Hope someone can give their educated opinion on it. Thanx XO

My 2 week old daughter Kalinda is very fussy and refuses to go to sleep at night, even for an hour. When we pick her up, etc. to try and calm her, she cannot seem to calm down except for when she nurses. Of course I can't nurse all of the time, but I do give her the breast to calm her. The thing is, she drifts off to sleep but when we transfer her to her nearby bassinet, she immediately wakes and screams bloody murder. We do not know what to do. We swaddle her and believe me have tried everything. she keeps us up all night trying to get her to go to sleep for just a little bit of time. Help! The dr. said to try a pacifier, but she wants nothing of it and spits it out. If we get her to sleep using one method one day, it is guaranteed that the next day it won't work. I know that she will eventually develop a pattern, but we're so exhausted, mentally and physically. My husband works and is trying his best to be a hands on team player, but he needs his rest.

My son is 5 months old and was sleeping through the night at 3 months old. When he turned 5 monts old he now wakes up again every couple of hours. Should I still be giving him a bottle in the middle of the night or not? Sometimes I can get him to go back to sleep just by giving him his binky...and other times I can't. Any suggestions

We have a 5 month old son and just moved to a new town. We often find ourselves sitting at home doing nothing. It is really putting a damper on our relationship. If we knew of some fun things to do outside of the house with our son it would really help. I am a stay at home mom and am always here at the house. My husband works 10 hour days and on his days off we don't do anything. Our son is very well behaved and would have fun doing anything but we are stuck. Have any suggestions?
