Thanks for the :gvibes ladies. I know it could be worse.
Congratulations on continuing to BF through the struggle ... I know it's hard a lot of mom's decide it's too much and just give up the first sign of trouble!! Give yourself credit (and a break) and don't be too hard on yourself. :clap
I have a 9 mo son who I have been BF'ing since birth. I, too, wanted to EBF and at times my supply got low. The first few months I put tons in the freezer, and just used it on the lower supply days (busy at work, during my period, etc). Then, one day I looked in the freezer and realized I had a few (of like 50) bags left!!! Not only was I pumping like crazy already, (3 x day at work + after morning feeding at home and after bedtime feeding at home), now I totally kicked it into overdrive!! I was drinking mother's milk tea, pumping every 2 hours on the weekends, and I managed to get through it!
True confession: when my son was 6 months old, I was happy to give him juice because it meant he might drink a little less milk so I could save more. Looking back, I should have realized sooner that I should have just supplemented if I needed to because it's way better than trying to fill a baby up on juice. I only gave it to him once a day, and it was 50/50 dilluted, but that's what I was thinking.
I was so proud of myself ... EBF'ing ... and I was telling everyone I knew about it!! Then I got a new job and was told I had to go to Tucson for a week!! So with about a month's notice, I was able to freeze 3 days worth of milk from hardly any saved up. I was freaking out, crying, going nuts on my husband, and realized that I would HAVE to supplement while I was gone. Feeling defeated, like a horrible mother, and everything else that goes along with it, I decided that if I was going to have to supplement, I wanted to make sure before I left that he took the formula ok. So I gave him his *first* bottle of formula ... and you know what? He survived. Didn't even know it was anything different, actually. No change in attitude, poops, or fussiness at all.
After I gave it to him, I felt an overwhelming sense of relief, in many ways. I was relieved that he took it ok and relieved that all this tremendous amount of stress was just alleviated so easily. I was pumping like a mad woman up until then. Seriously, I would pump until blood started coming out of my nipples sometimes ... for more than 30 min at a time. My husband always went to bed before I did, and I would stay up as late as my body allowed just to make more milk to pump before I went down. I tried waking up at 2 am to pump, but working full-time w/ 4 kids, it just exhausted me!!
After I gave him the formula, my husband asked me if we get to cuddle in bed at night again (I would always come to bed when he was sleeping)... I realized I was giving up a lot just to BF my son!! Not only that, but it was stressing me out sooooo much and making me feel like a bad mom, when really I am a GREAT mom for keeping up this long!!
I made it through my Tucson trip, my LO only needed like 2 formula bottles, and I managed to bring back tons and tons for the freezer with me. I am still BF'ing, but if my supply gets low ... or I decide I just want to go to bed instead of stay up late to pump, I will! And my baby will be just fine! :)
Read these forums, they will help a LOT! Also, invest in a good pump.
Here's my sad story about buying a Madela PIS ... I actually got a GAP credit card because they sell them online at the GAP so I could buy some decent nursing clothes and a PIS pump. Sad, but true. I am soooo glad I got one because I could be done pumping in 10 minutes and get 90 - 95% of my milk out. I always go longer, thinking I will get more, but usually do not.
Holy smokes this is a long post ... sorry!! I just wanted to share my thoughts and experiences. Read these posts, you can learn a lot about how to increase your milk. While BM is always superior, formula is a nutritionally complete alternative if needed. Hang in there - it gets easier!! :) :eye
I agree w/ the pp's, but I really wanted to reply to say HANG IN THERE!!! I have seen so many mom's give up too soon, but you will know what's right for you and your LO when you make the list w/ your hubby.
But the thing I know is that the STRESS will decrease your milk. I, at one time, (I've back to work almost 2 mos) was just barely making enough milk for her the next day and really panicked. My supply got lower the more I worried about it. I have a very stressful job, and I'm SUPER busy, so it's really hard to get 3x/day in. But - I made it clear to my staff... I take my breaks at 9:30, 12:30 & 3:30. I've been PRETTY good about sticking to that schedule. At most, I've been an hour late, but I try NOT to miss one. I know I have to keep the schedule to keep my supply up. BUT - also - I stopped stressing about my output. I stopped measuring each pump session, and comparing it to other pump sessions.... I noticed, the more relaxed I was, I still produce enough, and now, thanks to pumping on the weekends too - MORE than enough for her during the week.
So - again, HANG IN THERE!!!! Keep us posted as to how it goes! :hug

I'll try to catch a bit of everything. My favorites are the distance running events, diving, rowing and gymnastics. Oh, and cycling, except the pursuit events.... booooooring.
I'll try to catch a bit of everything. My favorites are the distance running events, diving, rowing and gymnastics. Oh, and cycling, except the pursuit events.... booooooring.
AceOn6, the golf loving skating fan
Everything Bar football and tennis.
Dont Hate! Gyrate!
I like it all and will have the DVRs going!
The musts are gymnastics (all kinds), swimming, diving, track & field, soccer, tennis, fencing, weightlifting, rowing, volleyball (both kinds), wrestling, boxing, synchro swimming, archery (if I can find it), cycling (road/track), triathlon, basketball.
I won't make an effort to tape or get up in the middle of the night for the martial arts, BMX/Mountain bike stuff, table tennis, canoe, equestrian, handball, shooting, badminton, modern pentathlon, sailing, or water polo, but if it happens to be on, I will stare at it.
I think I will have a snack and take a nap before I eat and go to sleep.
So much!
My friend and I were originally planning a fortnight-long watchparty at her mum's place, with the Foxtel going and basically involving us sitting up all night and sleeping during the day. Then work scheduled stocktake right in the middle of the Olympics. We think that's an abomination
Diving, gymnastics (all kinds!), equestrian, pole vault (hi Steve Hooker!), rowing, cycling, triathlon, tennis, fencing, volleyball, archery, and bascially anything else that has an Australian in the mix for gold.
I will try to avoid the swimming. As much as possible. It's not that I don't want to watch Australia win medals. I'm just sick and tired of our press carrying on like it's the only sport at the Games!
(Oh yes, except I will watch every race of Nick D'Arcy's just to boo him. Filthy thug should never have been allowed to swim again.)
gymnastics ( artistic and rhyhtmic ), tennis, weightlifting , Judo , swimming( all kinds), archery, fencing
Everything that's on, except boxing!
Definitely going to actively follow gymnastics, tennis, and swimming. I'm going to try and catch the equestrian events but they usually aren't extensively covered.
Plus, I'll watch whatever NBC puts on in prime time.
The T.V. will be on, and I'll be watching or listening any time I'm home, and any time I can at work. I'm responsible for coming up with an Olympic Trivia game at work. I like gymnastics, and rowing, and diving, and swimming, but will watch almost anything.
During the 2000 games, in Sydney, Channel 7 in Australia had a wonderful trivia game where you could talk to other players in between games. I had such a lot of fun there, but they've never done it since. Some of us were fairly mental about running up scores.
I'll watch all the sports where an Argentinian is competing + Gymnastics.
D&S 2006 and 2007 World Gold Medalists
Ugh I wish I upgraded mysky because for the first week it is literally gymnastics and swimming I'm taping as my system can only tape two channels. So many sports I'll have to miss
I'm just moaning cause I love the Olympics. Still in 2008 the coverage was mostly highlights and a single channel.

New Berlin OKs City Center apartments, delays decision on Walmart
Walmart delayed to address objections
New Berlin - The two most controversial proposed developments in New Berlin both hit the Plan Commission on Monday and one came to a resolution.
The 75-unit apartment building proposed for the New Berlin City Center won Plan Commission approval. Minnesota-based developer MSP Real Estate can now put shovel to ground.
The other development is a Walmart supercenter proposed for 15205-15375 W. Greenfield Ave. that the Plan Commission tabled Monday at the request of Walmart attorney Deborah Tomczyk. Walmart needs more time to address objections that residents brought up, she wrote to the commission. But Walmart plans to return at the commission's March 4 meeting.
"Walmart representatives have now had the benefit of citizen comments at both the Jan. 7 public hearing and a neighborhood meeting held Jan. 23," Tomczyk wrote. "Many attendees raised thoughtful issues which our team feels warrant further study."
Even though the Walmart proposal was tabled, many residents spoke to the commission about it, mainly repeating concerns raised earlier about traffic, making area flooding problems worse, light and noise.
Robert Christie, a potential Walmart neighbor, held up a photograph of a brightly lighted Walmart supercenter taken from the yard of a neighbor of the Muskego store and said, "This is what you want to put in my back yard."
Zoran Markovich of Carriage Lane who also spoke against the Walmart at the Jan. 7 hearing that took some three hours with no one speaking in favor, pleaded, "Listen to us."
MSP listened to the Plan Commission when it denied its plan for the 74-unit apartment building at 14900 Library Lane and made adjustments.
On a 5-1 vote, the commission felt those adjustments were enough. Casting the only negative vote was Marta Broge who continued her objection that the apartments would add too much traffic to an already difficult traffic situation on National Avenue.
To win approval, MSP moved a parking lot and provided access from the apartment building to National Avenue. Moving the lot also made the remaining undeveloped lot on National Avenue bigger so it could support more retail development, something the city wants along National.
Giving direct access to National Avenue would ease traffic flow by not funneling all cars from the new apartment building onto Michelle Witmer Way. Under the original plan, all cars would have had to take Library Lane to Michelle Witmer and then out to National Avenue.
"I like this a lot better," Mayor Jack Chiovatero said.
The addition of the 75-unit apartment building will fill up the City Center in terms of multifamily housing. The City Center is located basically on both sides of National Avenue from Moorland to Coffee roads. Single-family homes are still planned in the southern portion of the site.
The apartment building is the second phase of MSP's Deer Creek development. The first phase was the controversial project consisting of three 34-unit buildings of workforce development apartments for lower-income residents and one 34-unit senior citizen building. Controversy over workforce housing landed the city and developer in court.
The proposed 75-unit building would have 15 workforce apartments. The rest would have rents at the market value.

Comments On Dec 07, 2012:This works great when the light is lower or in the shade. In direct sunlite it is hard to see object in the screen. It is really nice to use to line up your images. Make sure that in the settings that it turns itself off so that the battery does not run down as quickly. Nice handy piece of equipment for the camera.

Comments On Jan 31, 2012:This little LCD Screen plugs into the back of my Hero 2, and comes with additional case mods so that you can keep it on there permanently if you wanted to. I didn't want to, I put it on, opened the original case and set the front half of the camera on my helmet until it was pointing where I wanted it to go, then tightened down the case / helmet adjustment screw, pulled the gopro back out and took the lcd screen back off (all of about 10 seconds). However, now when I want to take side shots, I can use my Hero2 as a nice durable HD camcorder as well, with the LCD plugged in, I can take shots and know where it is pointing, turning my Hero2, from a helmet only cam, to a I can use this videoing my kiddo riding her bike, playing out side, or doing anything that would require me to know where I am "taping". Worth the money to me.

Comments On Sep 30, 2011:This thing is pretty sweet. It allows me to use my Go Pro for a lot more than just riding (helped me justify the purchase to my wife). It is a nice extra for messing around camping, at home, at the lake, ect. Before buying, realize this only works with the 1080p version. You can still set it to 720, but it is not compatable with the lower version camera.

Great forums!
I'm really not to sure how old this softener is but I can tell you by the looks of it it's old. In the three years we have lived here the water has always had a hard water feel and a sulfer like smell to it. We were using some kind of regular salt in and were advised to switch to Clearwater premium Rust Out. This seems to really help with the hardness of the water however, My wife bought two bags just recently that was not the Clearwater. I reluctantly ran those two bags of salt through the system and noticed the water had gone back to the "hard and rusty" as I mentioned earlier. I refilled this time around with the Rust out and the water is now worse than ever. It's alomost like there is no softener at all. I noticed in another post the turing the dial on top should make different sounds but unlike their softener, ours does not have a "service" or "recharge" area on the dial. This sucker must be old. I would like to troubleshoot first as any man does before just scrapping the old and in with the new. What are some key points I need to check in the "problem" area that I may do at home to fix this water peroblem.
p.s. I have a 5 month old newborn and if it's not resolved soon I will replace the whole unit. I'm just trying to save the 1,500 bucks if I can fix it myself.
Thank you in advance for any replies.
I have included a few pictures.
