> > Your guesses? The key is in those words "easy pumper" in the first

> > eager-to-please supply apparently went over the top. She didn't spray
or
> > leak, and his diapers were normal, but his new behavior and the way it
> > coincided with his suddenly efficient tongue made oversupply seem like
the
> > most logical cause. She began spending 6 hours on a side... and finally
had
> > an efficient baby with a happy tummy. He's 4 months old now, and the
only
> > time he spits up is sometimes after that first nursing on the full
side...
>
> Heavens, my daughter still spits up on occasion (like maybe once every
> 2-4 weeks) and she's 17 months! :-)
>
> We went that route (projectile vomiting and lots of spit-ups) for a very
> long time...it's finally "over" except for the occasional "relapse".

> This is a clarification of how to do SEARCH functions on Lactnet..it is
> very useful to have this information at your finger tips, and to try it
out.
> Many times, a topic has been discussed, and you can benefit from finding
> past posts on the topic you are interested in.
>
> For info's sake, there are a few different ways to do a search for subject
> matter or sender on Lactnet material. We have approximately 2 years of
> Lactnet posts presently available to you (posts older than this are
> hopefully going to be included in the new Lsoft server, but this has not
> happened yet.)
>
> The first way is to do the searches by email through the
> [log in to unmask] address. The second way is accessing the
> archives from our archive web site at LACTNET Archives
> http://peach.ease.lsoft.com/archives/lactnet.html. The following
> instructions apply to the first method, searching via the listserv.
>
> For instance, if you are interested in finding all the notes that have
> Goat's Milk in the text since Jan 1, 1997, you can send an email message
to
> [log in to unmask] that says Jan 1, 1997
>
> SEARCH goat in LACTNET
>
> If you are interested in finding several different words in Lactnet posts,
> such as the following, it might seem that the right way to do it is to do
> several *different* searches, in separate notes to listserv, like....
>
> search epilepsy in lactnet
>
> search tegretol in lactnet
>
> search carbamazepine in lactnet
>
> search phenobarbital in lactnet
>
> to the [log in to unmask] address. However, this is not an
> effective way to utilize the search function, as it taxes the system, and
is
> ineffective.
>
> We are glad that you all are using the search functions, and here are a
few
> hints....and suggestions on how best to do SEARCHes on Lactnet.
>
> You can put several commands into a single message, and should do so
> when you can (because it's easier for both you and the machine). Just
> put each command onto its own line. Second, it will be much easier for
> you to make sense of the output if you put everything you want from
> LACTNET into a single command:
>
> SEARCH EPILEPSY OR TEGRETOL OR CARBAMAZEPINE OR PHENOBARBITAL OR PROZAC
IN
> LACTNET
>
> ... like that. Or you can do things like this, too:
>
> SEARCH EPILEPSY AND (TEGRETOL OR CARBAMAZEPINE OR PHENOBARBITAL) IN
LACTNET
>
> Rather than having to combine the lists of results that LISTSERV gives
> you to from those individual searches, let it do the work for you.
>
> If you were interested in searching for all the posts that I have made,
for
> instance, on Lactnet, you could do a
>
> SEARCH * in Lactnet where sender contains Bruce
> to the [log in to unmask] address.
>
> If you wanted to see all the posts I've made since Jan 1997, for instance,
> you could do a
>
> SEARCH * in Lactnet where sender contains Bruce SINCE Jan 1997
>
> to [log in to unmask]
>
> If you are searching for several words that are together, such as
>
> Breastmilk storage container
>
> you should first know that the Listserv automatically assumes "NEAR"
between
> all the words, so they not only have to be in the same article but also
> within a few words of each other. In addition, unless you *have* to
search
> the entire set of archives, you should always limit the search with a
date
> specifier like this:
>
> search breastmilk storage containers in LACTNET since Jan 1998
>
> It is important to specify the search. Limiting the search and making
> requests specific places less stress on the system. Many articles
talking
> about
> breast milk would separate the two words, and that some articles
talking
> about containers might only say "container", etc. Specifying a search
that
> gets all or most of what you want with a minimum of what you don't is as
> much of an art as a science.
>
> For information on searching, write to [log in to unmask] with
> the command
>
> INFO DATABASE.
>
> When you use the SEARCH function, the computer will send you back a "menu"
> of posts, each having a 4 digit number (####). You can then order the
posts
> you want with the command
>
> GETPOST Lactnet #### #### #### ####
