Naughty child.. please help my Aunty she is at her wits end
ok I am trying to get my Aunty on here, but this is what my Nan has told me and my Aunty needs HELP ASAP!.
my cousin clo (sorry Tam cant spell) is serverely allergic to so many things, tree nuts, nuts, egg, glyrserine, water(she cant be in it long or she hives) some drinks ect. the list is very long. Clo is 4 the same age as my charlie and she is a size 2 charlie is a size 5. the hight difference is huge and charlie is 20kg clo is about 10 i think.
now thats the backgroud on Clo. Tam my aunty is having constant trouble with her with eating and behavour. she is NOT a neglected child and is the middle child haveing brooke who is 6 like Alex and Mason who is 2. Clo does everything she isnt allowed to. climbs every where, draws on everything. My nan bought her a Dora bed last week hoping a treat would make her sleep through the night. (this kid lives on 3 hours sleep a day) she slept 1 night all night ad then back in mum and dad's bed, jumping around ect. Tam cant keep going on 3 hours sleep at night and her partner cant be awake to help as he works on boats so he needs his sleep. she displays sign like Alex with repition with certian things and has to have things a certian way. she is excellent at kindy, but when she gets home she is and this is nice, a monster. the other day she was jumping on her bed ad decided to pee in it instead of going to the loo.
i have sugested my Aunty take her to see a peaditricion to get help. personally i feel she is autistic with ADHD as she is always going and then conks. but she hardly eats but is always drinking water and juice. my Aunty is at her wits end with Clo as she is always in and out of apps with her food allergies and other allergies. could it be her allergies that are doing this????
advice needed and hopefully my aunty will be on here soon.
Luv Liz

in pain
hi,
last night, I made my husband go get me some formula at midnight, i could not take the pain anymore, however my Q is, I have a lot of milk, my breasts hurt and tingle even if I sneeze, so how do I relieve the pain, plus cut down my supply in the most quickest painless way, without encouraging more supply. I successfully breastfed my other 2 girls, but for some reason my 1 week old girl has got a wicked suck and has inflicted so much pain on me, so she is going on the bottle full time so can someone please help me save my boobs???

Calm me down!!!
Depression isn't so much an issue for me at the moment, thanks to being on anti-depressants, but without a medication I normally take to calm me down (it's the only thing we've found that works) which I can't take while breastfeeding, my anxiety is through the roof more often than not at the moment.
It's been getting that bad that vomitting for hours on end isn't uncommon, which results in dehydration, which results in my baby having to be formula fed a lot more because some days I just can't keep up the milk to him. On the bright side I've lost a lot of weight, but that's going to be a problem soon as well if this keeps up. If something triggers me off, and it can be the slightest thing at the moment, it makes it so much worse. By the time I've started recovering from it something else has triggered me off again.
I can't afford to put my baby on formula full time because it's too expensive on top of the cost of the medication, so I don't want to give up breastfeeding entirely to go back on the medication if I can avoid it.
I've got my shrink doing home visits each week, along with 2 social workers coming on different days as well, they've helped with a lot of things, but so far they haven't helped a hell of a lot with regards to coping techniques for my anxiety. They seem to be more focused on my potential depression, because people commit suicide to escape the pain of depression, and they seem to brush over my anxiety like it's just a quirk. I can't just go and see another shrink because there isn't one here. Believe me, when anxiety gets this bad, the idea of wiping yourself off the planet to escape it starts looking like a very viable option!
I don't want to go there, but I need a better way to push such thoughts (that invade me every few hours every day) out of my head and calm myself down. I know a lot of other members here suffer anxiety to varying degrees, if anyone has any better ways to cope with it - the extreme of it - I'm interested to hear it. I'll try just about anything right now. Various herbal teas, long hot showers or scented baths don't work too well, I'm beyond that now. Though I'm sleeping better recently it's only because with all the vomitting and tension I don't have the energy to stay awake as long.

Hi all I need some advice!!
Well the best day of my life happened yesterday, my husband said that he was now ready to have another baby, so last night I stopped taking the pill.
I have been ready for another baby for nearly a year now but my husband was not sure so I never pushed the point.
What I need to know is that is there anything I now need to be doing to increase my chances of falling pregnant?
When we fell pregnant with our daughter we had all but given up & stopped trying because the doctors told us that we most likely will be able to conceive but to carry the baby to full term was almost impossible.
I'm hoping 2nd time round will be different because I have been told once you have had one child successfully it is always easier 2nd time round.
Anyway anyone who has got some tips or advice for about what I should be doing now that would be great.
Also Happy Mother's Day to all for yesterday I hope you all had a brilliant day!!!
