Newborn & Baby - January 2007

I just had a baby 2 and a half weeks ago and I'm breastfeeding. My daughter is having 6-8 wet diapers like they say and she is having what they say she should have for bowel movements she had 4 poopy diapers yesterday. The problem is she is eating for long periods of time she will feed for 40 minutes sometimes and she wants to eat again right after. How can I increase my milk supply so I know without a doubt she is getting enough milk.

Does that mean 6 hours, 8 hours? My daughter is 7 months and still needs to eat every 6-7 hours at night.

MOM'S! My daughter is 51/2 months old. Sometimes when I am feeding her her ceral, veggies or fruit with a spoon in the high chair sometimes she continusly leans forward more than she should. I know she can sit in the chair right but sometimes she doesn't. This is frustrating to me and would like some advice on what to do.

The question tilte might have confused you after reading this.
I'm 20 years old ,I do have alot of experience with children. This is my first I've bought the basiscs but I know there is alot more that needs to be bought. I already bought clothes 0-3,3-6,and a couple of 6-9 month clothing. I've bought cases of pampers 2, pacifiers,bottles and bottle washers, about 4-5 recieveing blankets, 2 quilts, snow suit, soks,undershirts about8 pks in different sizes ,a crib, a bouncer,a small diaper bag.
I know that a baby needs a stroller ,a carseat, a swing for the days I don't want to keep rocking him ,a high chair, toys, maybe a play-yard. But I know I am forgeting something maybe you can help me out I'm due next month on the 15th yes the day after Valentines day.LOL I was surprised to hear it to! I'd like to get him a bassinett this weekend. I just feel like I'm missing a whole lot that he is suppose to have. Is it just me?

Was wondering, My 7wk old daughter just is NOT getting full off of formula alone, She ate a whole can of formula in ONE week...One of the BIG 20oz cans...So, Last night we decided to try some baby food, And she loved it! She ate almost a whole jar of Stage 1(Beginner) bananas. It didn't seem to upset her stomach any, BUT, She still woke up twice last night for her feedings.

Anyway, My question is, Is it harmful for her to have baby food so early? My mom said with my 2 older sisters & I, She fed us mashed potatos and soft or pureed foods at an early age, And all 3 of us grew up healthy!

We have a bedtime routine and she usually goes to sleep around 730pm and wakes up around 12, but after that (when we're finally in bed) she wakes up every 2 hours until 7am! Any suggestions? I am breastfeeding- so we think she may just want to nurse for comfort to help her get back to sleep, so my husband has been walking her around to put her back down- but how can we prevent her from waking up throughout the night so my husband can get some sleep too?! She eats every 2 1/2-3 hours during the day and I feed her at the 12am mark when she first wakes up.. so I don't think she can really be hungry every 2 hours at night.. ??

Her first pregnancy was a tubular pregnancy, and now this. I feel so bad for them and the baby, who was somewhere between 24 and 26 weeks, I think. He weighs 1 lb. 9 oz. He is alive, but from what I understand (and common sense) it's gonna be very touch and go. I don't know what to say to them when I go to the hospital (my family is very, very close...so I definantly will be going) I don't know if there are any flower allergies, and not appropriate for a celebration. I got them a bag and filled it full of toiletries, shampoo, conditioner, tissues, deodorant, tooth brushes and paste, razors and shaving gels, a mini med kit, lotion, and a bunch of stuff like that. I don't know how to act around them, I don't know what to say. If it were me in her shoes, I would lose it big time! I wouldn't want any company, nothing. I am so affraid for them and can't even imagine what they're going through right now. any similar circumstances? any ideas or advice?

I have a 3 year old cat and I never thought I could have children. So naturally I spoiled him. I cant close my bedroom door because he will sit and meow all night. So How can I keep him away from the crib now without making him think I dont like him so when the baby comes (very soon) he wont want to go in there and sleep? He is very spoiled I love him to death but I cant get rid of him. Will a cage eventually work or anything?

I have a 6mo. and is teething really bad. I have to give her tylenol everynight before she goes to bed and sometimes during the day. I also give her baby oragel. She's not a big fan of cold teething rings or cold wash cloths, so s all that medicine safe?

I had to stop breast feeding about three weeks ago. Does anyone have any tips on how to get an infant to drink more formula at each feed. My daughter is 15 weeks old and will only drink 3-4 oz at each feed. She goes about 3 hours between feeds (sometimes less, sometimes more). If we try to stop the feed to burp her she gets upset and then will not take anymore afterwards. Even if we wait for a bit and try again. Any ideas or is this normal for her age?

I know there are TONS of questions out there about this, but I couldn't find exactly what I need. My daughter will be one soon and I'd love to have her 100% on the sippy cup. She now drinks water and diluted juice from the cup with no issues. But every time I try to put her formula in the sippy cup, she takes a few sips and screams till I transfer it into a bottle and give it to her in the bottle.
Any suggestions?
