Is First Years or Evenflo Breast Pumps Any Good?

When my son and daughter were born premature, the WIC offices where I lived provided a motorized Medella pump supplied from a medical supply store. Obviously this was very good. I know that Medellas are sold in Target but I also seen other brands. Is there an "off" brand ie, Evenflo, First Years, etc. that is comparable but without the price??

12 Month Old Allergic to Milk?

Hello moms! My 12 month old recently made the switch to organic whole milk. He has been having a major problem with constipation and then diarrhea. Then, after his milk this morning, he threw up. He's been on regular milk for about a week now and before he was doing fine on regular formula. (He was on Enfamil since i had to stop breastfeeding at 6 months.) I was wondering if anyone has heard of a baby being allergic to milk when they did fine on normal formula. Could his tummy upset just be coincidence? He has no other symptoms of...

23 Month Old Sick for a Long Time...

My 23 month old son started day care about a month and a half ago. He has been sick since the first week there.

It has been about 3 weeks and his nose is runny, but not as stuffy, and he has this God awful cough that will not go away. It gets much worse at night, and he just sits up in bed and coughs!

Constipated 4 Month Old

My girlfriend's son is 4 months old and is breastfed. He has been severely constipated for most of his life. The doctor told her to give him 2 oz. of water every day and also to cover a thermometer with vaseline and give him an enema. I wanted to climb on here and ask our fellow mommies what they have done for their little ones in similar situations. Any advice, i'm not sure who I feel more sorry for, mommy or baby! ps....she tried giving him corn syrup mixed with breastmilk, which seemed to work for a couple of days, then the doc...
