    Wheezy cough

    Archie has a wheezy cough at the moment. He is getting 3 new teeth and is allergic to egg, cows milk and peanuts (not severe but still allergic). His cough does not sound wet, just raspy/wheezy. He has had bronchiolitis in the past but that's it for colds/flu etc. Do you think this could be...

    Rice Milk

    Archie is cows milk sensitive so since weaning I have been giving him rice milk mixed with 25mls of coconut milk to add some fat. I spoke to my Naturapath and he said I shouldn't use too much coconut milk as it wasn't a good fat (saturated). Archie's weight has always been good, he's about on...

    Breastfeeding - no more milk - HELP!

    Thank you all for your advice. Somehow along the journey I have adopted a very disfunctional way of breastfeeding as I express for the two feeds during the day and then feed him at night from the booby. This is mainly because Archie is a bit of a bugger and wouldn't feed properly (too busy...

    Breastfeeding - no more milk - HELP!

    My milk supply is drying up, just about gone. Archie is 11 months and for some reason my milk has decided to pack it in. I have tried expressing more but I can only get about 60-100 mls after 6 or more hours break. I would really like to keep feeding for a while longer but understand that...

His doc is the president for respiratory disease (the department) but I always seem to come away thinking that he doesn't do a thorough enough check on him. Next appointment I will push...

    Milk Allergy and CF

    Archie is allergic to milk also but can have goats milk, so I use goats milk cheese and yoghurt. I have also just switched his formula from soy over to goats milk as well as soy doesn't seem to be too good due to all the phytgo-estrogen hormones and aluminium. I am still BF but just top up with...

    genetic testing while pregnant??

    They will do an amniocentesis or similar (excuse spelling) to sample the amniotic fluid and determine whether your baby has CF. I'm not sure at what stage this is done, I think if they know what mutations you carry and they are relatively common, they can do it at approx. 12 weeks - I'm not 100%...

Once again, thank you so much...
