I agree -- but only based on a non-scientific n of one. One of my moms got
mighty nauseated with fenugreek -- first and only mom to whom this has
happened.
BTW, have any of you had babies who are (first 2-3 weeks) bf an appropriate
number of times, wetting diapers AND stooling appropriately (3-5 nice sized,
seedy yellow stools/24 hours) and are yet NOT gaining? I've had two in the
past week...really throwing me, as I felt as though the stools were the
cardinal guidelines about whether or not babies were doing well (this is on
routine follow up calls). Moms are hearing swallowing -- nothing that
indicates not all is going well; then on peds visit, baby isn't up to birth
weight....
Ideas?
Jan -- in beautiful downtown Wheaton where the plowed snow is about 10 feet
high, Torrey's boyfriend can't get back to Taylor because I-65 is closed (she
says, "oh darn.", and her practicum is delayed one day because the high school
is closed, and Tim just got home from winter retreat and schools are closed
for him too....Biggest snowstorm Chicago has seen in 20 years. (The year we
got 23 inches I was in nursing school....it was fabulous!)
