She is now 7 weeks old. Of late, she sometimes sleeps for more than 6 hours. Previously every 2-3 hours. Should we wake the baby up for feeding?

My 3 week old sleeps so peacefully during the day time. however, at night she is awake every hour or awake for several hours at a time...Usually accompanied by grunts and other harmless noises. She seems to sleep better when it is light and noisy. Could the dark be the problem or the lack of noises at night? Would really like to get her into a more "normal" routine. How do we go about this?

I am 5 months along and already seem to be lactating a little. I was thinking I could just start pumping now and freeze the breastmilk til the baby is born.

My 4 month old daughter has a Dr. appointment tomorrow, but I wanted to get opinions. For the past almost 2 weeks she's had this rash on her bottom...at first it just looked like a normal diaper rash, and it started to get better with a few applications of Balmex. But the past few days, it's not looking like a normal diaper rash...instead of the whoel thing being red, it's red bumps everywhere! I feel so bad for her...anyone know what it could be?

Sometimes it's obvious, as he farts loudly! But most of the time it's baffling and very uncomfortable as he drags his mouthful of breast around in a very alarming way. If he wants to stop, he normally sleeps or lets go - but it could be that he's unsure how to stop sometimes.

Before he gets latched on he also has a nasty habit of thrashing his arms and legs around, which can be very nasty with my hyper-sensitive nipples right now. I tried wrapping him up to keep his arms still, but he ended up like a writhing cocoon instead! Still very difficult to latch on with all that squirming.

Can anyone give me any pointers on what might be the cause? I'm sure he can't be the only baby who's ever behaved in this way!

This is a spin-off question from my original "circumcision" question. I realized recently, after the good answers I got, that it isn't just circumcision. My wife and myself have completely different views about baby care and we are both passionate about them, to the point of it causing some major problems within the relationship. Our baby is due around Christmas. A lot of the stuff we can try to settle later on, but I a trying to figure out what to do in this situation.

My wife has the views of, everything that doctors do is just to make money. So, she is on all of those "fringe" websites. (as I call them). Her views, NO vitamin K orally, NO vaccines, cloth diapers only, NO bottles (Ever), NO circumcision and she is doing all natural birthing.

Issue is, well, my biggest concerns right NOW is the no Vitamin K and no vaccines. I highly disagree with that, and I have done the research into it, about how they "cause" autism. I don't buy it, but we are headed for a divorce.

I read that it could for up to 6 months. Has anyone ever got pregnant while breastfeeding under 6 months?

I have a 3 week old son. I have been trying to breastfeed, but it seems he has a huge appetite. From what I have read, he should be consuming about 2-4oz per feeding. I breast feed for at least a half hour and when it seems he is done, he goes rooting around for more milk. Last week and weekend I pumped to see what I was generally producing and I was getting about 4 -6 oz per pumping session (20 minutes both breasts). Now starting Monday, I am only getting about 2-3 oz for the same session time. I have been giving him breast milk bottles and he has been eating at least 4 oz or more each feeding. A few times he has eaten one 4oz bottle and then was still hungry and finished another 4oz bottle right afterwards. I am pumping every hour and a half and getting about 2 ounces. His appetite is big and my breasts are not producing. I am wondering why I am not making more milk? I have had to supplement with formula sometimes because he wants to eat so much. I need help!

When I breastfeed my 2 month old on one side she is fine, but when i go to switch sides, she freaks out. It does not matter what side i start on. But if i pump from that side she will drink. I have tried different positions, rooms, everything!! Has anyone heard or had this problem and what has helped! I don't want her to get too used to the bottle yet. This issue is getting really frustrating and she has never done this before, it jsut started the last two days!

I went to church this past Sunday and another mom was nursing her baby during service (using a cover-up) and that got me wondering how I fwould feel about nursing during the actual service with all those people surrounding me andnot using a cover because I feel the only way to make breastfeeding normal is to not hide it! When I was nursing my at church, I would take him into the family room. Not because I was ashamed or scared what others would think, but because my son was one to not nurse with others around and would pop off frequently, so I'd go to a secluded place so it would be over with within a reasonable time! But this really got me thinking about what if my son was a quiet nurser, would I nurse without a cover-up in a place with all those people. At first I was thining it was because they would all think I was bad, so my thought was no I wouldn't.

We were trying to find a hat, gloves and Halloween costume for her 6 month old daughter. She wouldn't try anything on her in the store, saying "I don't know where they've been." Will she get over this? It's so annoying!

At the same time, she smokes near the baby (outside) and also takes the baby to parties where lots of people are smoking. Messed up!

I am confused. Can someone give me a sample feeding schedule for my 5 1/2mth baby? So far when she wakes I give her her bottle, 2nd feeding is 2oz formula mixed with oatmeal and right after, 3oz of formula in her bottle to supplement. The rest of the day I just give her the bottle. Is this wrong? I want to start introducing vegetables, when would I do this, on her third meal of the day? Once I start giving her vegetables and fruits, do i give these one after the other or space them? I dont know why this is not sinking in! Thanks for the help.
