Every time around this year I get sick.  I seem to get sick for either Thanks Giving or Christmas sometimes both all depending on how bad I get the flu.  So this year I wanted to avoid getting sick so when my doctor asked if I wanted the flu shoot I said okay and got it.

However, I fail to tell my doctor that I was breast feeding and did not think about it at the time when he ask if I wanted the shoot. I take blame for this it is not something my doctor would have assume to ask me.

Now I am worry if I can still breast feed or should I bottle feed a few days until the flu shoot runs it course.  Also if I have to wait about how many day should I wait until I continue to breastfeed.

I am seven months pregnant and as of right now will be nursing my child until she is at a year old or older if it works out well for both of us.  I heard many things about milk and tooth decay.  Can a child get tooth decay from nursing or is that only if you bottle feed a child?

I have dental insurance with my job but I am not sure what it covers for a baby since I personally have not used it that much.  What should I know when it comes to dental insurance and having a child added to the plan?

Right now my daughter is  seven months old and I am still nursing.  She is cutting her first tooth and teething so far is not too bad.  I am going to continue to nurse for as long as posible.  But with her teeth coming  in I am not sure if I should start giving  her some more solid food.  Some of my friends say to were other tell me not to or she will quite breastfeeding.   I not sure now what is good.

My sister in law and I had our children within a month from each other.  I am a non smoker and my sister in law stop smoking but only why she was pregnant.  Our families were really hoping that she would have just quit all together.

She breastfeeds her son like I do my daughter but is there any side effects that her smoking while breast feeding may have?   I know if I take her facts about how bad it still is to breastfeed and smoke she will stop.  Since she really thing breastfeeding is important.   Can you offer up a good case for me to take to her?

I will be having our daughter in another four months.  My sister son got dental caries from her feeding him with a baby bottle and I am wondering since I am planing on breastfeeding our daughter will she still be able to get carries from nursing?

I would also like any extra tips in taking care of baby teeth.  I want to avoid having all the dental problems my sister had with her three year old son.   Thanks.

Breasting feeding at night

I brush my baby three little teeth she currently has two times a day.  However, when she wakes up in the middle of the night I sometimes have to nurse her back to sleep.  Should I be worried about caries?  Can she get cavities just from middle of the night nursing?  I brush her teeth right after her morning feeding.   Wanting to make sure I am not putting her teeth at risk to cavities.

Nursing at night

How long should it take for a baby to breastfeed?

As it is now I feel as it my four week old baby boy is on my boob most the day.  He takes about 30 minutes to feed.  Then he sleeps and then he wants to eat again. I let him eat if he wants to for as long as he likes, because I do not want him to go hungry.  He does not get any tummy aches and he poops and pees okay.  I have a doctor appointment on the 27th so I will be finding out if  I am over feeding him but I would like some feed back before then.

About how many times do you feed your baby and for how long?
