If anyone here has the slightest inkling that their child is tongue tied please go see a lactation consultant (whether breast or bottle feeding). Turns out both of mine had lip and tongue ties and were able to latch on for the first time within minutes of having them released! They are bottle feeding better, sleeping better, no longer have reflux and just seem so much happier. I wish I had seen someone months ago and can't wait until I can stop pumping.

Worst night ever my fever reached 104.8. I cannot pump my left.breast as it has a clogged duct right next to the nipple. Going to the doctors today.

104 is serious in an adult. Make sure your appt is early.

Sorry HH I hope you get some medicine and get well ASAP

 

[HHenderson]

They called in antibiotics

 

[JenzyKY]

Good!! Feel better soon!

 

[HHenderson]

I hope, I tried pumping it out and I only got 3 oz normally I can get 5-7 I dont know what it wont come out. Now I have to worry about this clogged duct.

Henry finally let me use my wrap. Myles looks too cute.

I wish Henry would sleep better. He sleeps til 3 or 4 am then thinks its time to get up for the day.

HH whilst you pump try running a wide toothed comb down your boob across the blockage. I had to knead my blocked ducts out with my knuckles.

horrible night last night...chase cried from 12:30-3:30 am

Raptor had his first day of physical therapy today. He does have some tight muscles on the left side of his neck so I learned a bunch of stretches to do with him and a couple of new ideas for tummy time, one of which he responded very well to. He hates the stretches though.

I did that!!! It helped me a lot!!!

 

[pola17]

How interesting, Mac! But I'm also glad tummy time will be easier!

Bella: sorry about the bad night!!

DF: Myles looks so cute! as for vaccines, I respect each parents' opinion! They know what's better for the child. I vaccine Mikael because I live in Ecuador and diseases are everywhere!! For example A colleague from work got a disease similar to chicken pox (she didnt know she wss sick) and worked with me while I was pregnant for 2 weeks and I didn't get it because I was vaccinated. A friend of my mom got this while she was pregnant back in the 80's and her daughter was born blind and deaf
But where you live these things are uncommon!
sorry if any comments made you feel down!!


Mikael slept well last night but now at 6 he wants attention and I can't say no to that cute face! I'm sleepy and I think I'll take a nap now!

 

[JenzyKY]

Mac, I'm sure Henry needs therapy as well. Hope the therapy works well for Raptor.

DF, you don't vaccinate for a solid reason. No judging was being made. It's just a hot topic here right now as there's a massive outbreak of measles in Texas.

Bella Henry wouldn't sleep the last 2 nights either. Exhausted mommy.

Pola, that's scary. Glad you didn't get it!

 

[mac1979]

There was an outbreak of measles where I live last year. There were a lot of cases of pertussis last year and there is also an outbreak of pertussis in Texas now also.

Wow crazy!! If I got pertusis I would die with asthma. Yikes, hopefully it doesnt come down to FL

 

[HHenderson]

Im on antibiotics 4 times a day, hopefully they kick in quick.

HHenderson: ouchie!!!!
