Transitioning infant to crib
Posted by Kimberly Bepler on Thu, July 30th 2009 in Healthy Sleep (0)
I’m about to transition my 5 month old daughter from sleeping in a co-sleeper to her crib. I had planned on using a mesh/breathable crib bumper for safety reasons but she has developed a preference of sleeping horizontally with her head firmly against the cloth wall of the co sleeper.
Now I’m wondering if I should get something w/ more padding as to not hurt her sweet little head. Any suggestions?

Help! Low milk supply after taking Yaz Birthcontrol
Posted by Jennifer Fuentes on Thu, July 23rd 2009 in Breastfeeding (0)
Hi, I recently started on Yaz – my doc said that it wouldn’t affect my milk production. Just some background – I am a working mom and pump – usuallygetting 5-6 oz per pump session. My son is 7.5 months old, takes solids 3 xper day, nurses morning and evening and takes 2 bottles during the day.
I started the Yaz last Wednesday, then took a trip with my son where I was nursing more than puming (which for me, usually INCREASES my production). I started back @ work yesterday after the trip and can barely pump enough to feed him for the day @ day care. I’ve talked to an advice nurse and she said for sure it’s the Yaz, so I’m going to stop taking it immediately. The
question now is… how do I get my supply back? Will it come back naturally or do I have to do something special?
Any help would be appreciated – I’d like to get this figured out SOON! Thank you so much!
