When I weaned my son, I would get up with him and nurse for a while, but cut it much shorter than usual, then give him a sippy cup of breast milk. I don't know if she's using a sippy cup when she isn't nursing, but try whatever she's using... sippy cup or bottle. Then I just cut the nursing time...

I don't know if this is a silly question, but I'm in a very traditional marriage. My husband works, mows the lawn and takes the trash out. Those are his only jobs. I raised the baby myself and continue to take care of him by myself (he's 3), and I'm also in nursing school full time (will...

My mom was a cancer patient and medical marijuana was the only thing that helped her stop vomiting and even sometimes eat. I am 100% for the legalization of it. Most medications out there are derived from synthetic forms of things found in nature -- animals and plants. I don't think marijuana's...

Let us know if that helps any. Probably wouldn't hurt to watch your sodium intake too.

Will run out to get Rolaids this evening and let you know how it works tonight! Thanks!

He's adorable! Looks like his mama :)

I slept sitting straight up last night. That seemed to help, but it was really uncomfortable for my back. I tried lying down and the acid burn was right back in my throat. Hurt so much it brought tears to my eyes. Looks like I'll be spending the next few months sleeping sitting up. Still hoping...

I was told that a lot of it has to do with actual water intake. The nurse at my OB office told me to increase my water intake. I started drinking a lot more water and my water weight went away! It probably flushes your system and balances your sodium level or something.

Citrus fruits really helped me. I drank lots of lemonade in my first trimester and am still drinking tons of orange juice. The biggest thing was popsicles! Otter Pops, or the popsicles in the plastic tubes that you cut to eat, were the only thing that kept me from puking all the time. A nurse...

Hi all, I'm 28 weeks pregnant with my first child and have been struggling with indigestion the entire time. I try to eat small meals, try to not eat right before bed, have tried propping myself up to sleep -- nothing works. I drink Mylanta straight out of the bottle and it doesn't even touch...

Fellow AZ-er here!

I'll answer what I can. 1. Why would God entrust the spreading of 'His' word to one of his 'fallible' children? He knows men are sinners and are untruI doubt a professor would allow one of his students to teach a class if all the other students' futures were at stake. If God loved us so much...

I recently discovered that I absolutely LOVE going to the movies alone. As much as I love doing things with people I love, you're sort of always aware of the person next to you -- even if they're extremely quiet. I saw Eternal Sunshine alone and it was an extremely intense experience for me...

I speak bits and pieces of a lot of different languages, but I'm most fond of German and am becoming fluent. I need to go back and continue learning the others, though. I really regret stopping my Hebrew studies :(

Hey all, Just joined and got a very motivational message encouraging me to post here, so hi. I'm very pleased to be here and expect to become a very active member. Hope I fit in! -- Galeed
