Hi
Amanda,
As I
said, the risks are small, and decreasing all the time. I was stating that the
information that we have (about toxins being released into the blood
stream when weight is lost by women who are breast feeding) should be a
caution to anyone who wishes to intentionally lose a la
Hi Brenda
Thanks for that. After I posted I started thinking about it a little bit
more and I worked out where I was going wrong! All I could remember
learning from books etc is that pregnancy is the worst time to try and lose
weight, but as you say, a healthier diet will of course lead to we
I think I can understand where Nicole is coming from, or maybe this is just
another angle...you read so many stories in women's magazines (not that I
read them :) ) about celebrities and how quickly they lose weight after
pregnancy, and I always wonder how much of a negative impact this may have
Hi all,
I'm a midwifery student, and last semester completed an assignment on nutrition and weight gain in pregnancy. I repeatedly found literature that advised against losing weight in pregnancy because of all of the reasons that have already been discussed on this thread, such as

Everyone,
My name is Mel and I
have just started my post grad mid in WA. I'm a keen ozmid reader and have
read all the debates with great interest over the last few years. Am very
excited (but a little nervous) about the year ahead, so all tips for survival in

HiSamantha,
Thanks for that info. We have a new computer
programme at my workplace called BOS. It calculates women's BMIs (amongst other
things), so this will be interesting for us to look at.
Regards,
Nicole.

This is more of a parenting issue than a mid issue
but i value any input at this stage. My 7 yo son still sleeps with me
every night, although he will occasionally snuggle in with his 9 yo sister. I
have never worried about it, as i figure he won't be there when he's 18. But my

Hi Pauline,
This response is coming from a mother perspective rather
than a mid perspective, but I thought I'd contribute anyway. My nearly
seven year old happily co-slept with us until she was getting kicked off the
bed by her younger siblings...and her sisters now fill the bed and we

My husband used to get into bed with his mum until he was 8 and he is one of the most non-violent person I know, and has a wonderful relationship with his mother to boot. In addition, my little brother was the same.

Pauline,
Bollocks to your ex MIL - pity "ex" doesnt mean
"Exit"!
Recently, as I
searched for some long term evidence of the benefits of parent-infant
co-sleeping, I came across a study of college age subjects which found that
males who had co-slept with their parents between birth and fi
Ask her for the study!!! I bet it is like when you ask some obs for the research of stuff they do - they can't show you cos it doesn't exist!!! Or else the study is so flawed that the results are cr*p anyway!!!

I can recommend a book called "Having Faith: an ecologist's journey to
motherhood" for the best info I've ever read on toxins etc. The author's
surname is Steingrauber, I think. She basically concludes, as do I, that bm
even with toxins is still preferable to breastmilk substitutes. Her book is

Not sure how
to interpret this in light of my own kids experience now they are college age

My usual response to "But what
if he never leaves your bed???" is to say that I'm sure he will by the time he's
sexually active. And if not, at least I'll know who he's with. ; )
That raises eye

Sorry Nicole, but I was working on the premise gained from
research and the media that a large proportion of the obesity in
western society was directly linked to an increase in fats,
sugars and the volume of food available along with decreasing
exercise rates.
