Keeping Up with Change!
21st May 2009
Many of you have noticed the site changing – and I have to say, I am SO EXCITED at all the new developments and changes I am making.

So this is just [...]
How can babies be SO DANGEROUS?
18th May 2009
Something a concerned and confused father asked me when he saw the damage his darling 3 day old daughter had done to his wife’s nipples….I couldn’t help let out a giggle, bless!

I very [...]

It is natural for a mom to question her milk supply from time to time, especially when baby is going through a growth spurt and seems to feed non stop! But, what about those moms who’s concerns are shrugged off by professionals because everything ‘LOOKS FINE’?
Why would a baby not be draining milk if [...]

There are times when a baby will go on breastfeeding strike and refuse to breastfeed. This is very stressful for a mom who has just learnt to breastfeed without pain, so I would like to give you a few pointers to help you with this, should you be experiencing something similar right now!
