  • Tara, I can't remember what was said about Lactose Overload. What have you tried to manage the problem?

    Research shows that the symptoms of lactose overload improved in 79% of babies who:
    were fed in a position that ensured they received all the milk from each breast
    finished the first breast before moving onto the second breast
    were fed at three-hour intervals, and not more frequently in case of over-feeding.
    Stay-at-home, attached Mummy to a 23lb 10oz, 11 month old baby boy.

    Thanks Feelie, am feeding from one side at a time and if she wants more before 4 hours has gone by I keep to the same side. She has never gone the full 4 hours in the daytime. HV suggested cutting out dairy but I couldn't make her understand that it wouldn't help.
    Too many children, too little time!!!

    Elle - do you ever get bruised boobs?

    Nope, haven't had any pain in ages. I think it was when I was at my most stressed and I was pumping yet there was nothing there when I got the pain from it.

    Remind me, before 6 of my girls went back to school today and the other started her first part time job, what exactly did I do 6 or 7 weeks ago :confused: :rotfl:

    Not had anything from tax credits yet :o

    I hope all are well. 16yo returns from work not long after 1pm I assume, so i'll take her for a quick drink before school run to 'celebrate' (Tea or Coffee!)

    I'd better go and find what it was I did all those weeks ago, apart from work from home :p

    Hiya! :hello:

    I haven't heard anything from TC either yet, paperwork wise. My claim was logged on 10th July and I got random money in my account about ten days ago, but still no paperwork.. :confused:
  • I remember seeing a while back about things you put over babies socks to stop them falling off? (Not shoes, before anyone says that ;) ) As it gets cooler she's going to have to wear them whether she likes it or not, and we're not ready for shoes just yet - I'm not keen on them until she is actually walking.

    Ok, decision made, I'm gonna mix with formula for a few days and see if it helps with the over-feeding, but I won't use soya. That way I can still feed her myself through the night and have it on tap if we are out.
