How do you cope in the first few months? Thinking back to the brain fog I was in I think that the only reason I gave up trying was because I was trying to cope with newborn twins and pumping was easier than trying to get two infants to latch properly, and knowing that I would be going back to work after 12 weeks. If you re-read my post you will see that my boys got breast milk almost exclusively for their first year. The point of my message is that no one can do everything and that if something has to give choose something that will make life better for your family. For me that was getting my boys to latch. |

What should we pack when going camping with an infant? My doctor recommended the Avon skin-so-soft product as the only bug spray to use when they were under a year old. |

How do we get our toddler to gain weight? @Swati we give our children a liquid multi-vitamin called Poly-Vi-Sol(I added a link in my post). Originally it was because I was breastfeeding and my doctor was worried they weren't getting enough Iron. Now they don't need the extra iron but I like that they get an extra dose of Vitamin D every day. Because it tastes pretty bad we add it to their morning milk. |
