Hello! I've decided to share my milk with a local family through Human Milk 4 Human Babies. My baby is almost 4 months old, and growing well (nearly doubled her birth weight by 3 months!) I have always had "enough" milk for her but I wouldn't say I have extra, and I have only pumped a few times since she was born.   How should I go about this?? Do I have to increase my supply somehow? What if she gets hungry right after I pump and there's nothing left? I have more...
THANK YOU!      
Hello mamas. I am trying to figure out if my LO has food sensitivities, and I am stumped when it comes to the poop. I have never seen anything that I would call yellow and/or seedy. Her poops have been varying shades of bright orange to orange-brown ever since the meconium ended. She's 3.5 months old now. She had jaundice until just before 6 weeks, could she still be passing bilirubin, causing the orange poops? Also, what do "mucousy" stools look like? When I read...
Is there any way of getting oil out of clothing? I was browning beef and the grease splattered all over my shirt. I rinsed it in cold water and washed it right away, no luck. It's 60% cotton, 40% modal.
You could try wearing a nursing necklace for her to fiddle with, and redirect her hands.   These are popular: http://www.mommynecklaces.com/
Caroline had the 'neutral' newborn eyes at birth. They are blue-grey at 3mo, with a dark blue ring around the iris. My eyes are green with that same blue ring, DH's eyes are brown. Brown eyes dominate in both of our families, but I'm guessing DD's eyes will turn green, like mine.   Shameless plug:     This is not a very flattering picture of me, but you can clearly see both of our eyes:  
My DD is 3 months old and I have never used cream so far. She has never had a rash; we use cloth about 90% of the time.
Check out http://www.thebabywearer.com   It's a great site, and there's a forum dedicated specifically to wrapping. HTH!
Another vote for Elijah!
My precious "little" Caroline is already three months old today! How time flies when you're having fun   This photo was taken today:     She is growing like a champ - already doubled her birth weight, haha!! (she was 7lbs. 4oz at birth, born at 37w3d)   Would anybody else care to share recent photos of their adorable January-ish baby?? (C was born in December, after all)
