[blparent] Breast-feeding help, it must be passed down

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

My daughter weaned herself at ten months, and I pumped for another eight 
weeks or so.

"How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, 
compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of 
the weak and the strong.  Because someday in life you will have been all of 
these."--George Washington Carver, 1864-1943, American scientist

>> Hey Eric,
>> Well, I don't want to necessarily stop nursing, I was just concerned

>> Cheyenne seemed like she doesn't want to nurse anymore.  However, when I
>> give her my milk in a bottle she eats it just fine.
>> It might also have to do with her heart condition I mentioned yesterday.
>> She still does have a small hole in her heart that they weren't able to
>> patch up when they did open heart surgery.  There are times she latches 
>> on
>> just fine, but other times when she doesn't.  Most of the time though 
>> when
>> she does nurse she falls asleep.
>> Hope I explained this better.  I'm just glad that I still produce milk, 
>> and
>> like someone said before as long as I pump I will keep producing it.
>> I've also read its better to breast feed till a baby is a year old
