    Present for OH when baby is born

    I bought a book called: The Baby's Owner's Manual. It's written in a funny way but is also a serious book. This is the cover (I have the Norwegian version).

My little girl had gained 100 grams in two weeks, but she's awake, smiling and happy. I'm a "tiny" person, so I guess she could just have it from me. Thanks...

    Anyone combining bf with formula?

    Okay! Thanks Bev! It's good to hear that it's doable! :) I have been expressing milk now, first with my pump, than with my hands. Feel so stupid doing that. When expressing milk with your hands, you get more milk apparently! A tip from the bf help center here in Norway! :)...

    Anyone combining bf with formula?

    I'm drinking a lot and before I gave her formula, she was feeding every second hour, maybe every third hour during the night. She seemed happy, and I was happy. She's smiling and laughing a lot (and also did before I started formula), so I really think she's just a tiny girl. But, since she...

    Is it bad if ..

    You could lay a muslin cloth around her neck so it supports the soother. We did this for some time and than we just removed the muslin cloth when she had fallen asleep. If she really wanted it out, or cry, she managed to do that, so it wasn't dangerous or anything:)

    Anyone combining bf with formula?

    So...it seems like I don't have enough milk for my little girl, she's not putting on enough weight so I try to increase my milk production by expressing milk as often as I can, but still, she seem to have fallen in love with the bottle. So I always bf her first, and than, I give her a bottle if...

    Screaming during labour...

    I didn't scream either, but during the time when I couldn't push, I did moan a bit I think, because it was painful and I couldn't do anything. As some of the girls say, to scream is a waste of energy so your mw will tell you to try to avoid it! I'm sure you'll do absolutely fine!!! xx
