Making profit for three years in a row has helped Hindustan Copper Ltd steadily improve its financial position. The sole copper producing company in the country, which announced its highest ever profit after tax of Rs 323 crore today, is now on the government's disinvestment list. In a telephonic interview with Jyoti Mukul, Chairman and Managing Director Shakeel Ahmed says the renewed focus on core areas of mining and exploration has helped the company maintain profitability. Edited excerpts:
With the company now poised on road to profitability, what are the future expansion plans?
We are planning to invest Rs 3,435 crore to quadruple our mining capacity to 12.4 million tonnes (mt) by 2017. We have not commissioned any capacity since 1982. In fact, the company had to shut down four mines at Ghatsila in Jharkhand in the late 1980s since they were commercially unviable. We have already been awarded projects in Khetri, Malanjkhand, Surda Kendadih and Chapri-Sideshwar.
How do you plan to fund this expansion?
It will be mainly through internal accruals. For the first time since 2004, we plan to raise Rs 208-250 crore through external commercial borrowings to bridge finance next year. But if our revenue improves further, we may not need to raise the funds. Earlier, we had resorted to foreign borrowings only to meet our working capital needs and not for capital expenditure.
How did the fall in copper prices affect the company's performance this year?
Does the company plan to diversify, considering that it is focused only on copper?
We are looking at gold exploration and plan to expand into base metals. Overall, our business focus has changed. From a vertically integrated company that was present in the entire value chain, we are now focussing on our core area of exploration and mining for growth and profitability. We realised that smelting and refining was not giving us much returns.
How is expenditure being kept under control?
We have optimised our manpower and reduced workforce from 5,440 employees in 2008-09 to 4,810 at present. Though our wage bill has gone up by about 58 per cent during the period, since our employees are earnings on an average 85 per cent more after two wage revisions, the company has restricted the increase by rightsizing the organisation and keeping additions restricted to only areas of skill deficiency.
The company has been talking about acquisitions, but so far nothing has happened on this front.
Hindustan Copper, in a consortium with SAIL (Steel Authority of India), Nalco (National Aluminium Co Ltd) and MECL (Mineral Exploration Corporation Ltd), has been shortlisted for exploration of copper and gold reserves at Badakshan, Zarkashan, Balkhab and Shaida in Afghanistan. The process of due diligence is going on. In India, we will shortly form a joint venture with Rajasthan State Mineral Development Corp (RSMDC) for exploration and exploitation of copper and some other metals. RSMDC will hold 51 per cent in the company and the remaining equity will be with us.

That stinks man!
As I said, no DR screw-ups really surprise me any more.
But if yours says "submitted" then it sounds like a separate issue from this one for the time being.
I'm not trying to hate on DR. I've had a relatively smooth history with them until January. Even this early authorization charge (which I'm well aware will go away until the order ships) is waaaay down on the list of things they've done to get on my bad side lately - its just another obnoxious thing I have to deal with from them and I've run out of patience. But no hate to all those who are having no issues.

I guess with seeing this pending charge & still waiting on my Kobra Kahn replacement I think Matty has me in their sites, I just have been having far to many problems with DR lately & it is making me more rattled than I usually am.

I recently looked at my order history from matty and I do too have an order unsubmitted for the month of May figures of Slushhead, Stinkor, and the 30th sub figure Mighty Spector. What I find weird about this is, that these figures are combined as one shipment and as to where the month of April figures Thunder Punch and Drago-Man should have been combined like the month of May figures that i have mentioned. I don't understand why this months figures(April) could not be combined in the first place. Well in any case, going forward i hope that future 30th subs and club eternian subs will be combined as well. I can only hope. Here's how my order history looks for the month of May....

Credibility is something no business can survive long without. The fact that people are so worried about am unsubmitted order popping up in their account says a lot about this; folks are just waiting for Matty's next foul-up.

By JERRY HILL
Baylor Bear Insider
Cody Paladino has such an unorthodox swing that it makes you "look like you're going to sit on the ground."
Which might explain why the Baylor sophomore golfer from Kensington, Conn., had one of the most drastic swings between failure and success that you will ever see.
After finishing last among 60 golfers at the Big 12 Championships, Paladino came back two weeks later for an improbable third-place finish and playoff victory at the NCAA South Central Regional, earning a spot in the 112th NCAA Championships that begin Tuesday at Inverness Golf Club in Toledo, Ohio.
"The change of emotions, the roller-coaster ride has been pretty incredible," Paladino said.
"That was uncharacteristic for him to finish last," coach Greg Priest said. "He was kind of down a little bit and going through a little rough patch, and he got it turned around and got his swing worked out. But just having the ability to turn it around, you've got to be pretty mentally strong."
As bad as he shot at the Big 12 Championships, which were held April 27-29 at Prairie Dunes Country Club in Hutchinson, Kan., Paladino thought he might be starting his summer a little early. With his spot on the five-man team in doubt for the regional, his mother had already purchased him a ticket for a flight home as soon as final exams were over.
"I had just about the worst week I've ever had on a golf course," said Paladino, who finished at 46-over-par 326 with rounds of 85, 79, 81 and 81. "It was awful. The second round, I was 2-over with a couple holes to go. And I still don't know how. But then I just fell apart. It was awful."
Paladino's mother sent out a 9-1-1 call to Chuck Lasher, his personal golf instructor and family friend who's worked with him since he was 7 years old.
"For someone like me, it makes a huge difference," Paladino said. "Because when I stand on the range and ask some of the players or ask our coaches, `Hey, take a look at my swing,' I don't feel entirely comfortable with what they say. It's not that I don't trust them. But they give you a lot of the same fundamentals that you would say to others that don't necessarily apply to my swing. So to have the guy who's basically built my swing since I was 6 or 7 years old, that's huge. Everything I know about my swing has come from him."
By the time Paladino picked up Lasher from the DFW Airport, he had already returned home from the Big 12 tournament and spent nine hours on the range. "I did everything that I knew worked and just tried to get back to some place where I could remember how to do things my way," he said.
"It was amazing, because the ride from Dallas to Waco . . . was probably the most important hour and a half in my golfing career, I would think, to this point," said Paladino, who was third on the team this year with a 74.25-stroke average. "We talked about everything that I figured out on the range. And in that hour and a half we spent in the car, I learned so much about my swing and what's so important for me to play well."
More than anything, he figured out that he had to go back to his swing. As unorthodox as it might look - his stance is much wider and farther away from the ball than most people, and the plane of his swing is "really flat, like way around my body" - it works for him.
"When we got back to Waco, we went straight to the course and straight to the 1st tee box," Paladino said. "We didn't go to the range at all. He said, `OK, I want to know what you did yesterday, but I want to see it on the course.' So we went out and played nine holes. And he was like, `OK, Wow! That's what you're supposed to be doing.' It was just a matter of getting the timing back and getting comfortable with it again."
"Nobody knew how to fix it," Priest said. "But I think by going through these changes and having some ups and downs and some adversity, when it does go off now, we know to change it. So I think we definitely learned something."
Right after the Big 12 Championships, Priest's original thought was to leave Paladino home for the regional. "But that was just in the moment," he said. Paladino eventually won an intra-squad scrimmage, finishing fourth in stroke play and then beating two other potential qualifiers in match play.
"I knew that if we were going to make it out of there, Cody had to be in the lineup," Priest said. "He's a guy that's carried us, and we only make it if he's in there. And he's going to have to play well."
Looking nothing like the golfer that had hacked his way around the Prairie Dunes layout, Paladino certainly upheld his end of the bargain at the regional in Stillwater, Okla. He opened with a 2-over-par 74 on the difficult Karsten Creek Golf Club layout and followed with rounds of 73 and 74, finishing at 5-over 221 and tying for third individually with LSU's John Peterson after 54 holes.
"I got to the first tee on the first day and was like, `OK, I know what doesn't work,''' Paladino said. "And that's standing there, kind of questioning what I'm doing. I know I've got to try something different. So I'm like, `OK, trust what you know works.' And for 54 holes, that's what I did."
In a two-hole, sudden-death playoff, Paladino made pars on both holes while Peterson missed an 8-foot birdie putt that would have won it on the first hole and then three-putted from eight feet for bogey on the second hole.
After hitting his approach shot on the par-4 10th hole over the green, Paladino chipped to within four feet and sank the putt to win the playoff and earn the qualifying spot for the NCAA Championships.
"When that putt went in on the second playoff hole, it was amazing," he said. "There have only been a couple times in my golf career where that much emotion comes to you. And that was definitely one of them. You're in the moment, and you're so isolated, that you don't really know what's happening. And then all of a sudden, I hit it and it went in the hole, and I was like, `Oh, geez!'''
Paladino should not be intimidated or awed by the talented field of the nation's premier collegiate golfers or event itself this week. He's performed well on the national stage, finishing as the runner-up at the 2007 U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship the summer before he enrolled at Baylor.
Facing a pair of players who are now on the PGA Tour, Paladino defeated Derek Fathauer of Louisville, 1-up, in the semifinals before losing to recent SMU graduate Colt Knost, 6-and-4, in a 36-hole final.
"I had about a two-footer on the 18th hole to (defeat Fathauer)," Paladino said. "And when that putt went in, it was almost unbelievable. That's the other time that I was talking about when I've been overwhelmed by emotion. Making the putt to make it to the finals, I will never forget that."
Live scoring for the NCAA Championships is available at www.golfstat.com. Paladino was scheduled to tee off at 8:55 a.m. Tuesday.

Disgusted at the misogynistic, male-dominated rap scene, Owens adapted the moniker of Queen Latifah (meaning delicate and sensitive in Arabic) and was soon on her way to changing the way many people looked at hip hop. Soon gaining a loyal following due to her unique perspective and role model-inspiring attitude, Latifah recorded the single "Wrath of My Madness" in 1988 and the following year she released her debut album, All Hail the Queen. Making her feature debut three short years later in Spike Lee's Jungle Fever, Latifah began refining a screen persona that would be equally adept in both drama and comedy. After starring as magazine editor Khadijah James on the FOX sitcom Living Single (1993-1998) and landing increasingly prominent film roles in Set It Off (1996), Living Out Loud (1998), and The Bone Collector (1999), she was given her own personal televised outlet in the form of The Queen Latifah Show in 1999. Losing her brother in a motorcycle accident in 1995 (she still wears the motorbike's key around her neck) in addition to grieving a friend who was shot when the two were carjacked the same year, Latifah has persisted in overcoming tragedy to remain positive and creative. The talented songstress has also appeared as both the Wicked Witch of the West (1998's The Wizard of Oz) and Glenda the Good (The O.Z. in 2002), in addition to remaining an innovative and inspiring recording artist. In 2003, Latifah hit a watershed moment in her career and in the public perception of her image: she signed to portray Matron Mama Morton in Rob Marshall's bold cinematization of the Bob Fosse musical Chicago. For Latifah, the turn embodied a breakthrough to end all breakthroughs - it dramatically reshaped the artist's image from that of a hip-hop singer turned actress to that of a multitalented, one-woman powerhouse with astonishing gifts in every arena of performance - voice, drama and dance. Latifah deservedly netted an Oscar nomination for this role, but lost to Catherine Zeta-Jones, who played Velma Kelly in the same film.Later that same year, the multifaceted singer/actress took a dramatic step down in ambition and sophistication, joining Steve Martin for the odd couple comedy Bringing Down the House. That farce tells the occasionally rollicking story of a hyper-anal white lawyer (Martin) who attempts to "hook up" with a barrister he meets online, but discovers that she is (surprise!) actually a slang-tossing black prison escapee with a mad taste for hip hop dancing (Latifah). Ironically - given the seemingly foolproof and ingenious premise - the film collapsed, thanks in no small part to an awkward and craven screenplay that fails to see the logic of its situations through to fruition, and wraps with a ludicrous denouement. The film did score with viewers, despite devastating reviews from critics across the country. (If nothing else, the picture offers the uproarious sight of Martin in hip-hop attire, and does celebrate Latifah's everpresent message of much-deserved respect for black women). Latifah's onscreen activity skyrocketed over the following half-decade, with an average of around 5-7 roles per year. One of her most popular efforts, Barbershop 2: Back in Business (2004), constitutes a sequel to the urban comedy-drama Barbershop (2002). The original picture (without Latifah in the cast) concerned the proprietors and patrons of a (mostly) all-black barbershop on the south side of Chicago, with seriocomic lead characters portrayed by Ice-T, Cedric the Entertainer and others. In the second Barbershop go-round, Latifah plays Gina, the owner of an inner-city beauty parlor who operates her business ne

July 1, 2014
By Bill Langer
Along the Sandia Mountains outside Albuquerque, be sure to watch for the light from a miner's cabin.
We leave Adrian, Texas, in our rear view mirror as we continue our westward trek along old Route 66/Interstate 40. Soon we reach the Texas/New Mexico border where we make a ceremonial swing through the ghost town of Glenrio. Mrs. Ehresman no longer serves her coconut cream pie. Her husband, Homer, no longer runs his service station or tourist court. Glenrio has faded into obscurity.
On our way to Santa Rosa, N.M., we zoom past San Jon and Tucumcari, as well as several more ghost towns scattered amongst lush irrigated fields or bleak prairies filled with yucca and bunch grass. Cattle can be seen grazing amongst the sandstone outcroppings and rock ridges, reminiscent of time preceding the creation of Route 66 when we would have been following the Ozark Trail.
Santa Rosa, "the City of Natural Lakes," is an oasis in this area of otherwise red mesas of the flatlands. It sits on the edge of a humongous sinkhole that was formed over geologic time as groundwater dissolved the underlying limestone. The land surface gradually subsided in a large roughly circular area about 6 miles in diameter and up to 400-feet deep. About 190 smaller collapsed sinkholes, some up to 1,500-feet in diameter, are contained within the larger sinkhole. One such sinkhole is the 81-foot-deep Blue Hole, a favorite spot for scuba divers.
When we depart Santa Rosa, we need to choose which way we want to go. The original alignment of Route 66 through New Mexico was approximately 507 miles long. It followed the old Pecos Trail north to Santa Fe and then turned south to Albuquerque. One of the most challenging sections of that route occurred along a particularly nasty stretch down La Bajada Hill between Santa Fe and Albuquerque. There, a 500-foot drop along narrow switchbacks struck terror in the hearts of many early travelers, so much so that locals were often hired to drive vehicles down the steep slope.
During 1937, Route 66 was straightened out on an east-west axis from Glenrio to Albuquerque, cutting Santa Fe off the route and shortening the road by 108 miles. No matter which alignment is taken, travelers following old Route 66 were treated to spectacular views of the Sandia Mountains as they approach Albuquerque.
Ancient peoples scratched out mines in the Sandia Mountains searching for materials to use for ceramics, building stones, cutting and grinding tools, and other implements. The Spaniards came looking for gold and silver. Spanish records dating from 1667 describe five mines; the location of only one of which is known today. The rest are known as the lost mines of Montezuma.
Gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc were all mined in the Sandias during the 19th century although they never experienced a mining boom because of the marginal reserves. The best known mine was La Luz (the light); a lead/silver mine at 10,040 feet. Men and mules hauled tools and supplies up the mountain. There is a story that, on some nights, people in Albuquerque could see the dim light from the miner's cabin; thus the name.
Today, the main mineral commodities mined in the Sandias are similar to those mined by the ancients…the non-metallics, including sand and gravel, crushed stone, cement, scoria, clay, pumice, and gypsum.
When we arrive at Albuquerque, our destination for the night, we should remember to carefully look at the Sandia Mountains. Maybe we will see the light.

text: Similar to some other folks, I'm planning on picking up a new phone (S3) when my contract expires next month and letting my kids use the X. Before I do, I have a few questions. 1. Transferring data: I just bought a 32gb microSD card that I plan on formatting in the S3. After formatting, I'll copy over everything from X's microSD card. Does anyone know of any issues with this approach? 2. Transferring applications: This will probably get tricky since I want to leave a few applications on the X for the kids. But first, my understanding is that once I associate my Google account with the S3, my apps will be downloaded and installed on the S3. Does this include free apps? Will this uninstall them from the X? There are a few apps that I bought for the kids to play with, and I'd like them to remain on the X, so I'm assuming that I'll have to leave my Google account associated with the X. 3. If do I leave my Google account associated with the X, I don't have to perform a factory reset, right? The X will just stop working as a phone (Verizon service stops), and we'll be able to use wifi, right? 4. Kid-proofing the X for 3 and 2 year olds. Since I plan on keeping my Google account on the X, I'm trying to think of a way to prevent the kids from doing stuff they shouldn't: buying stuff on Play, accessing email, etc. I'll obviously uninstall any apps they don't need, as well as remove shortcuts to apps I can't uninstall. But they'll still be able to access the app drawer in the bottom right. Which scares me. Anything else I can do? Thanks in advance for any help, Brian

- Land
The population of Luxembourg is likely to continue to rise. Estimates are that it could reach 560 000 to 605 000 inhabitants by 2024, bringing an overall need for more infrastructure facilities and housing, i.e. more threats to existing natural and semi-natural areas. That is why the issue of land use and consumption is taken on board in various action plans.

know what you mean about destruction of cemeteries. As weird as it
may sound, IF I WERE RICH, I would spend a lot of my fortunes restoring
old cemeteries. I would love to be able to afford just to be able
to fix and fence my direct ancestors.
Robertson Bryant (family) cemetery (also in Maury County) is almost
gone now due to destruction by cattle. Robertson Bryant and Nancy
Amis are my g-g-g grandparents. My mother and her sister remember
this cemetery from their childhood (I would guess 1930's and 1940's) and
remember the ornate fence that once surrounded the cemetery. All
of this is no longer around and the cattle are free to crush and knock
over the stones. Have you ever taken pictures of these stones????
The owners (at least - use to be owners) were willing to grant access to
the cemetery. It is a very small family cemetery.

Word file, along with the embedded topo map, came through just fine.
I would love for you to publish pictures of the (Robertson) Bryant
Cemetery. Let me see if I can help a little more with your ability
to locate the cemetery.
let me recommend that you only try this in the winter months.
Being able to locate the cemetery when the plant foliage is so
thick, makes it almost impossible to find (unless the owners take you
Lewisburg, traveling northwest on Hwy 50 towards Columbia:
You will pass by Bryant Station and pass Interstate 65;
In about one or two miles, you will see a road (Fred White Road) that
turns off to the right. I believe there is a sign that says
"Philadelphia;" but I can't remember for sure. Turn
You will then (almost immediately) come to an intersecting road.
You will want to turn left. This road, while (Called Rick Hight Rd
or was the old hwy 50) paved for a while, will turn into an unimproved
road (gravel -- deteriorated pavement?), as I remember. You will
pass several homes and trailers.
As you are traveling down this road (it is not far), you will see the
home of Robertson Bryant off to your right. It is a classic home
of the early 1800s -- two stories with 4 stately columns. It
was painted white (with a green roof) the last time I saw it.
Assuming you are now standing in front of the home, you would turn
to your left and walk east for about 100 yards.
In front of you should be the edge of an open field, except for a
grouping of trees and I believe a power pole (not the huge transmission
lines). There may also be a wire fence along the edge -- again I
can't remember.
Once you get to this grouping of trees, you should be able to locate
the (remnants of) stones.
things of interest:
The current owner(s) have maintained a wooden fence in the front of the
home. As you walk outside the wooden gate, the yard starts to drop
off. At this drop off, you will notice a wall of stacked stones.
I was told this was built intentionally (with an elevation
difference) so that carriages/wagons could pull up next to the wall and
the visitor (presumably the woman) would only have to step across
to level ground. Pretty ingenious.
The owners were in 1991 the Reese's. They were attempting to restore the
home. They had found remnants of the detached kitchen off the back
and had removed the interior walls to expose the yellow popular
studs. I have no idea the
conditions of the home now since I have not been there.
if I were rich, I would have this cemetery fenced and stones restored.
Robertson Bryant and Nancy Amis had 15 children and are the
progenitors of (probably) thousands of current-day individuals. It
would be wonderful to preserve (and to remember) their resting place.
Their daughter, Ann (1826-1860), is buried there as well. Ann died
of consumption. There are probably others buried there too.
me know when you are thinking about making the trip. If possible,
I may try to make the trip at the same time. Ronnie Erwin,
past president of the Maury County Historical Society and a descendant
of Robertson & Nancy Bryant, has also expressed an interest in
visiting their homeplace. Perhaps we could all go together.
hope some of the above helps you in some way. And, in the
future, don't hesitate to call on me for help. Your various
contributions to Maury County have been so important and I certainly
want to help you in any way I can.

are correct -- the cemetery is not on any current-day topos that I am
aware (my topo was photo revised in 1981). Robertson Bryant's house
and outbuildings are marked, however, with their symbol for buildings
(rectangular & square blocks).
have written, and have mailed today, a short letter to Mrs. Reese.
This was just a preliminary letter -- just trying to reacquaint her to
me as well as trying to verify her mailing address (I also found an
address for her on Rick Hight Road).
will let you know what her response is. If she shows any
enthusiasm, I will ask her permission on several fronts, including the
notification of GNIS of the coordinates of the cemetery.

On the Volcano Pa Hula Mound
"You've practiced, you've studied. You've smiled, laughed, fought and cried. And at this moment, as you stand at the mound, surrounded by your brothers and sisters, none of it matters. As one you chant to ask permission to enter, to dance; your Kumu returns the call. You glance at the swirling plumes of Halemaumau where just the day before Tutu Pele had shown her face. Together you dance, feeling the unity of movement between the dancers. You chant better than you have ever before; you speak knowing your voice is heard. You notice small things – the way the drops fly off the uli'uli; the way the ili'ili glisten in the wet grass; how surprisingly warm the ground is when the rest of the world is covered in cold mist; how the Kumu's eyes sparkle and laugh as they chant. And as you dance in this sacred space, at some point it occurs to you: You are here."
by Sarah McGinnis, Woonsocket, Rhode Island
"I think that I, and the rest of my hula haumana felt very honored to be invited to dance our hulas at the pa hula mound. I was overcome with the mana'o of the area that flowed within me as I danced. I cried when Kumu Abe and his group brought us ho'okupu of leis. The whole experience touched my heart so much so that I did not want to leave Hawai'i and this empowering location. Being kanaka maoli, I truly felt a connection to the aina and to my ancestors."

Before leaving Cordova, we made some excursions in the neighborhood. Though the only vehicles which could be had were of the most primitive kind, and the roads were rough and dusty, yet the beauty of the views in the translucent air of Spain, the wealth of flowers and flowering shrubs, and the handsome faces of the peasants of Andalusia were adequate compensation for the miseries of the ride. We crossed the bridge over the swift gray waters of the Guadalquivir, then passed the Alcazar, once a palace and now a wretched prison, and then took a road leading to a range of distant hills, on which many beautiful villas have been built. Our destination was the house of a member of the Cortes, a Spanish marquis. The road was upward for a number of miles, through walled gardens and orchards. Roses and orange-blossoms scented the air, the day was mild and clear; along the road, at the little restaurants, were gayly dressed peasants, men with smart leather buskins, and sombreros on their heads, and women with bright-colored dresses, and roses in their black hair. Long lines of mules, with heavy packs upon their saddles, and donkeys, entirely eclipsed by their overshadowing loads, were coming towards the town, as we climbed up the heights.
At length we stopped at an iron gate, which was opened by the porter, and an attendant appeared to conduct us through the garden and villa. Terrace rose above terrace, clad with orange-trees and rosetrees, and geraniums and heliotropes grown to the size of bushes, with palm-trees and clustering vines. There the gentle murmur of fountains allured to repose. On the terrace above this garden was a modern imitation of a Moorish house, with all its furniture and interior decorations. Attention had been paid to every detail, and the illusion was complete. We were borne back to the seventh century, as we lounged on these rich divans, and looked out over the valley of the Guadalquivir and the beautiful hills and plains of Andalusia to the snowy summits of the Sierra Nevada, glittering like crystal on the far horizon line. A bridegroom in the garden was making a huge bouquet of roses for his bride, a few of the gardeners were standing about with the idle ease of the Spanish peasant of the South, the song of the nightingale trembled on the air, and every sense drank in the loveliness and beauty of landscape, sky, flowers, fruits, and music. It was an agreeable farewell to Cordova.
From Cordova to Seville, the distance was short, but the beauties of the country showed us that we were in a different region from the stern and cold Castile and Aragon. Olive groves with their gray shimmering foliage, orange orchards with the golden fruit and the white blossoms on the selfsame trees, fields full of flowers, rose vines wreathing the walls, hedges of aloes and flowering shrubs, fig-trees, and palm-trees, and groves of pines alternated with rich green fields. On lofty rocks we saw castles and towers, and on the way we passed the town of Palma, a white jewel in a setting of emerald. Other villages were scattered about among the hills, and all along the road were country houses with an enclosed garden, a whitewashed wall broken by a door with some arabesques over it, and horseshoe windows on either side. Many people were in the fields, dressed in quaint costume, a broad-brimmed hat with pointed crown, a zouave jacket and vest, knee-breeches and gaiters, and often a silk sash around the waist. The snuff-colored cloak was no longer seen, and all sombre dress and cast of countenance and solemn mien had passed away. We were in the country of music, and laughter, and gayety.
At a long distance from Seville we first caught sight of the Giralda, rising over the green plains; and as we drew near, all of the principal buildings came into view, for the railway runs alongside of the town, while beyond the Guadalquivir are hills covered with olive groves, below which lie the ruins of Italica, which have enriched so many public and private places in Seville. From the railway we drove to the Hotel de Madrid, the most charming hotel which Spain offers in any of its cities or towns to the weary traveller. In its marble courts and beautiful gardens, where there are shade and coolness and refreshment during the noontide hours, in its spacious and well appointed dining-rooms and well furnished and comfortable saloons and bedrooms, we passed many delightful days, making morning visits to those celebrated places of interest with which the city is filled, and driving in the afternoon in the Delicias, lounging in the gardens of the Alcazar, or watching the festive crowds in the Calle de las Sierpes or the Alameda.
It may be cold in January at Seville, and if it is cold in Spain one must put on extra garments and go out into the sun. But in springtime the climate is perfect, the air is dry and clear, sunshine floods the city, the courtyards of the houses bloom with choicest flowers, the markets are full of delicacies, the outdoor life is novel and entertaining, and if one is fortunate enough to have pleasant friends and no anxieties of mind, the days pass in a circle of pleasure and restful delight.
Seville is a charming city, abounding in warmth and gayety and life, entirely different from other Spanish towns and full of delightful reminiscences of the Moors who once dwelt here and lived in beautiful palaces unlike those of any other part of the world. The Alcazar, with its courtyards and fountains and gardens, is an earthly paradise, and the Cathedral, with its Moorish Giralda, is a wonder of architecture, of which latter structure New York has now a partial copy. In this Moorish minaret there are thirty-five bells, which are rung by a blind man many times a day. The palace of the Alcazar is full of lovely rooms, decorated in the most perfect style, with wonderful tiles, and courtyards with marble columns and fountains of waters, and gardens full of orange and citron and pomegranate and oleander trees, and roses innumerable, and flowers of all hues and fragrance, and vines and fruits, and shady bowers, and mazes of box, and all that can delight the eye and fascinate the soul. The streets are clean and healthful, and the people beautiful after the Spanish types of beauty; there are pictures of pleasing subjects by Murillo, and a charming drive in the "Paseo," an avenue extending for several miles along the Cxuadalquivir, under old trees and between gardens of trees and flowers. We made some pleasant expedition each morning, and drove two hours in the afternoon for a dollar, in a neat victoria, seeing the life and style of this Andalusian town. The bells, and the cries in the streets, and the perpetual hand-organs playing Spanish dance music would perhaps weary a nervous person, but in other respects even an invalid would enjoy Seville. Our hotel was formed of several courtyards, in two of which palm-trees and oleanders and banana-trees were growing; and a fountain played in the centre, into a basin full of goldfishes. Under the arches of the marble colonnade around the courtyard the walls are wainscoted with marble, and the floor beautifully tiled. Here we sat and chatted and read and took our coffee, and saw the passing life. When the sun grows hot, huge brown linen screens are drawn over the court from roof to roof, leaving spaces between for the air to circulate and shutting out the vertical rays of the sun, so that it is always cool and pleasant within. We had a little suite of rooms on the quiet court, which has no plants in it, but only a marble floor, and rooms opening on the two galleries above. We went up one flight of marble steps, and had two bedrooms and a little salon, for which, with all of our meals and everything except wine, we paid twenty francs a day. Travelling is expensive in Spain, but living in its towns is not costly. The hotels are all upon the American plan, and that is rather pleasant to American tastes. But the table is not on the American plan, and the things which we got to eat were of the most remarkable description, and sometimes one could not tell at all what was at hand. I followed Paul's advice, and ate what was set before me, asking no questions. We did not always drink water, for the wine of the country is good and healthful, if taken in moderation, not sour like the French, and not heavy if properly selected. We always had also a bottle of some kind of aerated water. We met many people, some of our own nation and some English but mostly Spanish and French travellers. We heard little news, and found few English papers except the London Times, which was usually a week old. But, speaking of news, it is worthy of notice how greatly the world has changed within the past twenty years as respects the American continent. Columns of the Times are now occupied with American news, and the financial articles are about equally divided between Europe and America; whereas, twenty years ago, a few brief paragraphs of no public interest embraced the entire American exhibit. Still, there is something yet to be done, for many curious mistakes in topography and in political matters are made even in British papers about the United States.
Not only is Seville a beautiful city, but I appreciated also the country in which the city stands. The orchards are pleasant places, with charming paths through them; on one side, and sometimes on both, crystal waters flow with a pleasant murmur. The banks are covered with fragrant herbs and flowers of many different hues. One can gather a bouquet of poppies or a bunch of violets in a little time. Majestic trees overshadow the paths; the olive, the walnut, and the fig interlace their branches, and hedges made of rose-bushes, blackberry vines, pomegranate, and honeysuckle divide the fields. Through this beautiful Andalusia, in these serene nights of spring, the heavens are full of stars, and the smiling fields are covered with verdure. The cool and pleasant gardens abound in shady and delightful walks, in gently flowing streams and rivulets, in sequestered nooks, in multitudes of birds that enliven the air with sweet songs. The weather is clear and warm, yet with a bracing air; and one would be content to live always in such an atmosphere, and with such pleasant surroundings. With choice company we explored the treasure-houses of the Cathedral, enjoyed the delights of the Alcazar and its lovely gardens, studied the pictures of Murillo, visited the ruins of Italica, and drove in the afternoons through the Delicias, beautiful promenades along the banks of Guadalquivir, where Spanish beauties and the gilded youth of Seville gather to hold their daily court.
If Seville and its surroundings are so fascinating now, what must they have been in all the brightness, elegance, and splendor of its Moorish period? It was the sacred city of the Moor, filled with all that could exalt and embellish his luxurious life. Everything that wealth could purchase, or taste design, or bravery win, was gathered here. On these green savannas, surrounded by groves of orange-trees and watered by the Guadalquivir, had arisen an Oriental city. Its noble mosque was filled with worshippers of the Prophet when from the lofty Giralda the muezzin called the faithful to prayer. Its schools were thronged with eager and intelligent students in science and the arts; and in the glorious palace of the Alcazar, where the magnificence of architectural designs united with exquisite beauties of decorative art, were gathered all the statesmen, the warriors, and the courtiers of a great and powerful people. Palaces and villas rose in the midst of groves of palms and gardens of delight within whose courts the varied types of Moorish and Spanish beauty were hidden from the vulgar gaze; and throughout the whole region a brilliant life, which filled the senses and satisfied the imagination, reigned supreme. These glories have passed away and this brightness has become dim, but the climate, situation, and fertility of Seville assure its prosperity; and though the cultivated and noble Moors are gone, they have left an indelible impression upon the people, which makes the place one of the most delightful which the traveller sees in Spain.

American Hustle star Jennifer Lawrence is going to take a year's break from acting.
The 23-year-old Oscar nominee is said to be planning to take a well earned "rest" after making eight films in the past 12 months.
Speaking to The Sun on Sunday newspaper, Harvey Weinstein who worked with Lawrence on Silver Linings Playbook, said: "She's going to have a long break for a year where she won't do anything. It's been non-stop for her and she deserves a rest."
The 61-year-old producer also defended Jennifer's decision to not attend the BAFTAs ceremony, despite receiving an award for her role in American Hustle.
He added: "Jennifer is too nice and will do people favours and agrees to do a movie like American Hustle when she could have had a rest. She signed on to do Hunger Games when she was young and wouldn't have realised how much it would dominate her life. But she's a professional and always will be."

By Birsen Altayli and Daren Butler ISTANBUL, May 28 (Reuters) - Turkey's proximity to Europe, its low costs and well-trained workforce are encouraging major automakers to increase local production capacity as the industry rebounds from a 2001 recession, analysts said on Friday. But they warned that high taxes, bureaucratic hurdles and economic uncertainty still threaten to put the brakes on the sector when pent-up demand is satisfied and the market becomes more stable.

I would give her 1-2 teaspoons of sugar in her formula to see if that helps when she is constipated per my pediatrician;-) After 4 months old, you can give her apple prune juice to help her;-) Good luck!
My baby is showing signs of constipation (hard tummy, grunts a lot and seems to be "pushing" but when we check her diaper it's very small amounts of liquidy poo). A note, I breastfeed and formula feed, although lately we've been giving her more formula than breastmilk. Could this be the cause? Anyone ever experienced this at such a tender age? Any suggestions for how to help soothe her tummy? Thanks much.

I had a similar experience at the same time. My daughter did not have a bowel movement for 2 days. I put in a call to the pedatrician on a Wednesday. He said if she had not had a BM by Friday to call back. That whole day she cried nonstop. I had no idea what to do. Later that evening, she had a massive BM. After that she had one everytime she ate. I attribute it to her body changing.
Hi A.,
For constipation even at that tender age what you can give her is a couple of drops of the white Karo syrup in her formula. I don't know how many months she is but if she's like under 3 months you may just want to give her this remedy once a day until she starts doing it normal. The formula does do that to babies when you switch from breastmilk to formula. It may be the iron that's causing her to get constipated but this remedy will help her. Well hope she gets better.
Hi A.
When my daughter was born 4 months ago, she did alot of grunting and I mean a lot with constant pushing. Does you daughter cry when she does the pushing and grunting? What formula do you have her on? My daughter also did the combo of breast feeding and formula feeding for the first two weeks of her life. I was told by ther doctor that the grunting is just what she does, it's just her expressing herself. I was worried about the pushing, worried she's give herself a hernia or something but she is fine now. She never cried along with the grunting and pushing. Now at 4 months she is very verbal constant babbleing and I was told that all the grunting and pushing was just because she was going to be very verbal and she is. I did have to change her formula to sensitive and that seemed to help the pushing. Hope you find some relief in my email. If all else fails take her to her doctor. Have a wonderful day
I breastfed both of my children and most of the advice you will find on breastfeeding will tell you that your milk supply will not completely get established, or it will diminish or completely dry up if you formula feed and breast feed. Also, you need to be aware that the iron in the formula will block the iron in your breast milk from getting to your baby. Also, the iron in the formula is constipating. Mother's milk is best for your baby and no chemist has been able to duplicate what God created, so do your baby a favor and don't mix formula feeding and breast milk. Once your baby is older, you will be able to pump milk to store in the freezer for when you absolutely can not be with your baby to feed him/her. I hope that this advice helps you and your baby.
Blessings to you and yours,
Hi A.,
This is very normal! Our baby did the same thing up until she was about 4-6 weeks old and it really freaked me out at first, but I went to the doctor and he told me this was perfectly normal. Remember that breastmilk is like a natural laxative and is much easier on the tummy than anything else. If you are still worried about it, take your baby to the pediatrician and set your mind at ease.
On another note, I noticed that several folks posted that you might consider giving your baby Karo syrup. Please know that this is definitely something you should talk to your pediatrician about before you do that. Manufacturers of corn syrup cannot guarantee that their products are free from Clostridium botulinum bacteria, which can cause infant botulism, and for that reason most pediatrician's do not recommend using this method. For more information: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/karo-syrup-for-constipat...
Congratulations on your new sweet baby!
No she is not constipated. The formula is upseting her stomach and causeing the gas and bloating etc. Give her MORE BREASTMILK. Constipation is not based on how often we have a bowel movement, although most people think that. If you are able to breastfeed quite giving her that fake stuff. She needs your milk.
Sam Evans LM CPM
I would have to say that the mixture of both breastmilk and formula is not a cause. These tiny little people, so new to the world, havent yet developed those little digestive tracts.
Here is my "old school" advice. Put her on the changing table, with a diaper under her, of course. Gently massage the rectum, without "poking" in. This causes the natural reflex to poop.
If that doesnt work, lubricate the end of a thermometer with a little petrolium jelly. Only insert were the silver part is. (about an 1/8th of an inch) This, too, will cause that "urge" to poop. If she is truly constipated, the results will show it.
My own daughter went through the same thing and I was given this advice from two Grandmas and a Great Aunt. It worked.
Happy Pooping!!!
P.S. For what its worth, I find in this day and age, we simply dont listen to our elders. They, in my opinion, are a font of information. They arent always right, but by golly, sometimes they are right on the money!!!
Very, very, very normal. Your baby's digestive system is newly working those muscles. If her BMs are soft and very liquidy as you said, she is not constipated!! It is just her muscles are being trained and she has to work at it. I had the same concerns with mine, but the doctor and all the books said it was normal. It happened with all my children. As long as you are mostly breastfeeding, your child won't get constipated. If you are only formula feeding, you should offer water once a day to compensate. Otherwise, all this is normal. I breastfed and gave formula to all my children. They are all very healthy.
STOP FEEDING THE FORMULA! Your breastmilk has colostrum in in for up to 8 - 10 weeks and will be all the laxative that your precious little one needs! If you are having trouble keeping up your milk supply you can buy a tea at a nutrition store called "Mother's Milk Tea". You can also take fenugeek. Increasing your fluid intake will also assist in increasing your milk supply. Please talk to your doctor before giving your tiny one something so harsh as a suppository or other stimulating medications. You never know if there is something more serious going on and a visit to the doctor is the best thing. But in response to the mom suggesting you listen to your elders, I would say that my elders always said that "an once of prevention is worth a pound of cure!" STICK WITH BREASTFEEDING!!!
Good luck and God Bless!
My nepfew had the same thing.In fact he never went on his own untill he was about 2 mths. My sister had to put little liquid enamas. They make them for infants. But dont put a whole lot. Just maybe half. Then within 20 min he should go. It is safe. Our doctors told us to use them. Then see how he does for a few days and he seems to keep getting that way to try givng him 1oz of baby apple juice daily. Just 1 oz. They sell the liquid enamas at Wallgreens.
Yes, the transition from breast milk to formula is probably what is causing your baby's problems. If she does not get "regular" with her bowels in the next week or so, you may want to contact your pediatrician. My oldest daughter had the same problem. Her poo didn't become solid until after we got her on formula only. The "liquidy" part was from the fat in the breast milk. Her digestive problems didn't become regular, due to the switching back and forth. When you begin to put rice cereal in her bottles she will have digestive irregularities again. Don't panic you are doing a good job, their little tummy's have to get used to the different foods. I hope this helps, good luck!
Try putting a very small amount of Karo syrup in the formula.
You Poor thing! The first few months is SO hard..... yes, it is the formula.... try watering it down- a lot..... her little tummy is stilladjusting to this world... and it can take some time.... to relieve her constipation... stick a baby rectal thermometer or a q-tip covered in vaseline.... and you will see quite a poop show.... good luck!
Listen to Jamie---STOP THE FORMULA and get back to the perfect food for your baby, mother's milk. There IS no adequate substitute! It contains everything your baby needs to grow and thrive. A study published THIS WEEK shows a 10 point advantage in IQ in babies who are exclusively breastfed for at least six months. The gastrointestinal difficulties will vanish if you stop using manufactured products, which were not designed by nature and CANNOT nourish your baby properly!
Constipation is defined as hard stools, which your baby does not have. What you are describing is extremely common for ALL 2-week-olds--it looks and sounds as though they're turning themselves inside out just to pass a tiny liquidy bowel movement! But it's just a matter of underdeveloped muscles--she just started doing this, remember--and having to fight gravity, since she's lying down almost all the time. Formula's an easy target, but both of my breastfed babies went through the same thing. If it makes you feel better, try a different brand of formula and see if that makes a difference.
What kind of formula are you feeding her? My son(he's 3.5 yrs now)would get constipation if anything had soy milk. I would suggest taking a look at the ingredients in her formula. She could be allergic to milk products, soy or so on. You might also want to look at what you're eating as well. This is something you definitely need to tell your Pediatrician about. My son to this day has constipation problems so we have to really watch what he drinks and eats...Those little glycerin suppositories work very well...Hunter hates em, but they work. We now make sure he drinks 8 oz of plum juice a day to keep him regular..LOL ...Good luck..I know how hard it is(from experience) to deal with a newborn and constipation. Nip it in the bud before it starts to hurt her.
You might try some Karo syrup. Dr. told me to add to one bottle a day. It helped tremendously.
Formula is a frequent cause of upset tummies for babies. It is not too late to go back to breastfeeding. Breastmilk is perfect in every way for your baby. If she has an allergy or intolerance to artificial feeding the constipation can be painful and needs a pediatrician's help. Please call her dr. with your concerns. Formula-feeding needs a lot more monitoring by the pediatrician than breastfeeding. Also formula-fed babies need more trips to the pediatrician for various illnesses. So, if you really want to formula feed, please consult the pediatrician.
I had to supplement with formula for my daughter as well, and she did get constipated, would not go everyday. My pediatrician had me feed her Karo syrup (about 1 tablespoon per 8 oz of water) and it worked really well. My daughter had latching problems that we were not able to resolve, so I chose to breastfeed and pump, so that we supplemented with very little formula. I know how hard this is with a new baby, but breastfeed as much as you can if you are able. And if you need to give bottles, try to pump at least once/day to maintain your supply. Good luck!
It is been my experience that if she is on a formula that has iron, that does cause constipation. If she is on that type of formula check with your doctor and see is you can give her something before or after she eats to help her belly. Good luck.
During the transistion from breast milk to formula, my pediatrician's office recommended a bit of Karo Syrup. (preferably dark) Brian had an irritable tummy, and this worked every time.
Hi A. I had the same problem with my chil nshe is now 6wo and every time I see trying to poo i turn her on her stomach or her side because it helps her.I ask her pedi why does that happen she told me that since she is not in a upright position like we are when we poo its alot harder for them .
First time mother also baby girl Hailey 6wo
It may be your diet, I had to switch from drinking whole milk to soy milk because when I nursed I noticed our baby was constipated and gassy so we switched and it worked fine!
From my knowledge, breastfed babies do not get constipated. Also, it is rare rare rare, very unlikely, that a 2 week old would be constipated. Babies do get hard tummies and grunt when they poo. And it could also be gas, switching between formula and breast may be ca using her to be more gassy. Does she seem uncomfortable? I would recommend (suggest), warm bath (if her cord has fallen off), gentle baby massage, raise her legs up, bend her knees toward her belly and roll them around. And Mylocon drops.
I would suggest talking to your doctor first before you try any of the methods people suggest. Formula can cause the poop to thicken. However, it is not necessarily the culprit. My last 3 children would go up to 7 or 8 days with out pooping and they were all breast fed with maybe 2-3 bottles a week. when they finally went, boy did they go and it wasn't thick like I was expecting it to be. It was a normal consistency. I went to my doctor and they said to try the karo syrup. I did that and it didn't work. We tried the q-tip with K-Y on the tip, and that would work sometimes but not often. Eventually my pedi recommended giving a pediatric supository if she hadn't gone in over 7 days. When she finally went it was still a liquid. the first two outgrew the problem about the time they started on solids and I'm still going through it with my 2 month old. I haven't had to use a suppository in a couple of weeks and she is starting to go every 4-5 days. She is also quite gassy. Mylicon drops don't seem to work for her but what I found that worked is called Kid-e-col. It's by Dr. Christopher and I found it at Cost plus Nutrition. It is a formula of catnip and fennel. I used the stuff on my first child and am using on my last ( I have 4). It seems to work pretty good at easing her tummy pain. My current pedi told me one reason it takes so long is my baby is so efficient at absorbing all of the nutrients she doesn't have to go poop as often. As long as your baby is passing gas you don't have to worry about a blockage. For some of these little ones it is just harder and more painful. feel free to ask me any questions.
Yes, formula fed babies tend to be more constipated. If you go back to breastfeeding more, than your baby should be less constipated. Be sure and eat your vegetables. Also, babies digest easier when they are on their tummy. In the daytime, try putting your baby to sleep on her tummy and see if that helps. Good Luck!
Breast milk is the Best!!! . I agree with Jennifer Z . The Baby needs the Collostrum in your Breast milk. That is the way God intended it to be !!
I just wanted to let you know that my daughter suffered the same way. She is now 8 months old but when she was very young she went through a tough time transitioning to formula as well. I was concerned because she only pooped about once every 7-10 days. My doctor reassured me that this was normal for breast fed babies. We began feeding her formula when we noticed her developing a lactose intolerance to my breast milk. I was crushed!!
Try taking her feet and moving them in a "bicycle " motion to help move her bowels. Later you could also try pear juice mixed with water- that seemed to help a bit. You might try looking at the sensitive types of formula as well.
I was as also told that pooping is a learned experience and that she would eventually ease into it- and she did! I hope your little one does too!
good luck and congratulations on your new love!
If she's needing a bowel movement, try a dab of dark Kayro syrup (NOT the lite but the dark). A dab about the size of the tip of your little finger, put it in the beverage & it should do the trick. If still having issues, yes I'd call a dr about it.
Put a spoon of clear karo in her bottle and this should fix the problem. Do this for each feeding from the bottle. B. mother of three granmother to 10
Your baby is not constipated. True constipation would result in small, hard stools that are difficult to move. She is doing exactly what a newborn baby should be doing. Many babies have to "concentrate" or "push" their BM's out, but if the result is still essentially liguid stools, you should be fine.
It is possible her tummy is upset from the formula. Is there a specific reason you are supplementing so early? If you need the concenience of an occasional bottle, I would recommend pumping your breastmilk and offering that instead.
In addition, you are at risk supplementing so early unless you pump to replace the feeding. It can result in reduced milk supply. Unless there's a very good reason for supplementing, I'd go back to breastmilk exclusively until much later, or never! breastmilk is so much better for both of you! :)

My daughter is 5 years old and has been constipated from birth also. It has never gotten better. The Dr's. say she may grow out of it when she gets older. We have her take a stool softener named lactulax. We have brought her numerous times to gastroenterologists, with the only suggestions being to take this medicine daily. We tried to stop, and only feed her high fibre natural foods such as fruits and veggies. To no avail. We start the day with a papaya, and bananna smoothie mixed with Activa natural yogurt, psyllium husk, and flax seed oil.
I know how frustrated you may become, but just try to relax and do check with a pediatrician though. I seem to remember when she was a baby they gave us a jam or a pectate which helped our baby for a while.
I also do think that the formula could be causing this also. There is a lot of iron (which is necessary!) for babies, and some tolerate it well and some don't. I tried to breast feed as much as possible, but only lasted 8 months. I noticed the change also from breast to formula.
It may just be the way she is. My advice would be to do the same as I did. Start with the pediatrician, then if that does not work, go to a Dr. specializing in the intestines, and do keep her on a daily pooper aid.
Good luck. I know how hard it is. My daughter used to cry and be scared to death to go #2, poor thing. She would cause tears and bleed sometimes after she went to the bathroom. Now at 5 years she is getting better.
Her constipation is due to her formula. You need to let her peditrician aware so the formula can be changed. in the mean time , try to breast feed more than formula. If you have to work you can express the breast milk and leave it in the refrigerator. A..
Are you eating a lot of yogurt, cheeses and milk. This will cause you baby to be constipated. Also broccoli, onions and things like this will cause cramping. Have you tried drinking a little orange juice. This may relieve some of your babies constipation. Remember everything you eat goes to her. You might keep a journal of what you are eating so you can see her reactions.
She may have gas too.
I am a first time mom as well, so when my baby girl showed those signs, the docs told me she may be suffering from gas. I ended up giving her Mylicon. And when she was older, infant suppositories. Although don't use this method too much she will get dependent on it.
Talk to your doctor about your options. SHe is much too young to just listen to other moms...your doc may have a natural way.
Also, try burping her more, thats what i had to do until I got the Mylicon from the doc.
Good luck!
it could be the combination. have you tried 1/2 ounce water and 1/2 ounce pear juice. this was recommended by my ped. it helped!!!
Constipation can be caused by diet but it can also be a sign of a more serious condition. It is best to call your pediatrician as soon as possible to determine the cause.
Your hospital should have sent you home with the little bottle of sugar water just in case this happens. This advise is from the old school: take a bottle with 2 to 3 ozs of water and mix with 1/2 to tsp of sugar and let her drink it. In a few hours she should be fine. Babies tend to be more constipated when breastfeed.
Both of my children suffered with constipation when they were infants. What worked for both of them was a little bit of Karo syrup in thier bottle no more that 1/2 tsp. If that didn't work I would give them about 2oz of warm prune juice. That usually did the trick within about 30 min to an hour. If that doesn't work consult her pediatrician.
I just wanted to let you know that I sent you a pm. Please read it and let me know. Also, don't believe every little article you hear about bf vs. formula feed babies. I want you to think about people who adopt and do not have a choice but to feed formula. Their babies are just fine and their IQ is very high. Trust me! Plus, my best friend has a serious illness that won't allow her to bf. She does not produce the hormone Oxytocin which is what "stimulates the ejection of milk into the ducts of milk." Her doctor tested her levels and this is after she took fenugeek/blessed thistle/goats rue/mother's milk/ and an illegal drug which you could only buy in Canada..anyway, her levels were so low that the doctor was impressed that she bf for as long as she did. This doctor fed her 4 babies bm for a year. I just say all this that no matter what you decide to do that as a mom...you know what is best between you and your doctor and WE SUPPORT YOU!!! Hang in there and READ MY PM to you!!!!!!!
much love and support!!!!!!
My baby boy is 4 months. That first month was HARD. I called the hopsital several times a day. If you have questions you can always call the peidactric ward. I was told to use the light karo surp the amounts i dont remember. But call your dr. The liquidy stools might mean something else. But our doctor said it would be normal if our baby went a day or so with out poop! Remember those nurses are avalible 24 hrs 7 days. Always some good medical advice when you need it. Good luck.
I went through the same thing w/my son when I was switching from breast milk to formula. I think it's the iron in the formula. It's so hard on the babies stomach. What got us through it was giving him a glycerin supository. We had to be careful so that he or his body did not get use to it. We had to do it for like a month (maybe a little longer) and then all the sudden we didn't need it anymore. I guess his body took a while to get use to the formula. Sometimes, I'd put the supository in and not 5/10 min. later he'd poop. I could see almost all of the supository so it was like he needed just a little help. Best of luck-S.
A., no it's not constipation. Newborns do this. They go red in the face and they push and push as if there little lives depended on it, but as you can see what they produce is runny almost liquid bright yellow poo.
Nothing at all to worry about.
