> Here is our history:
>
> Andrew was a full term baby. He struggled with nursing at first, even
with
> the persistence of some great LC's. We were not successful until we
started
> using a nipple shield. He was weaned off the nipple shields at nine weeks
> old.
>
> He is currently six months old (as of tomorrow). We have had four months
of
> pain-free nursing. He has a verfied fabulous latch.
>
> Last week, he had a 3 day nursing strike where he just plain refused to
eat
> for a period of 6 -8 hours.
>
> He had his first DTaP shot last Monday. No fever or otherwise obvious
side
> effects.
>
> Nursing strike started Wednesday - Friday.
>
> Has been showing teething symptoms: rubbing fist on gums, drooling,
> irritability
>
> Babe is currently sleeping two hour stretches at night. Thursday night
was
> up every 30 - 45 minutes crying. Finally slept two hours after Tylenol
dose
> at 6am.
>
> Current baby symptoms: Cranky baby. Sucks at the breast, cries, asks for
> the other side, sucks at that breast, cries and then refuses to nurse
until
> he is really tired and has to go to sleep. He will nurse in his sleep.
>
> Current mommy symptoms: Cranky, sleepy mommy with sore, burning nipples.
> No history of yeast (ever!) or recent antibiotics. Has been sick all the
> time recently though... new virus of some sort every ten days for the
last
> eight weeks (six so far).
>
> So... is this related to possible ovulation, first post-pregnancy luteal
> phase and a reduced force in my let down? Thrush?
Mom described her problem well, so I really cannot add much. She would like
to know if diminished let-down occurs in the lutueal phase, so if anyone
here is more familiar than I with FAM, please chime in.
