Artificial Food Colors - HELP

After reading an article on food colors (red, yellow, blue) I am experimenting with taking my 3 year old off all "yellow, blue and red" colors to see if it will improve his behavior. Does anyone know or have experience with items labled with "artificial color"? I have been avoiding the previously stated colors but just noticed my (large) bag of shredded cheese has "artificial color"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (My kids live on cheese.) I cannot find any concrete answers of what exactly makes up/is in "artificial color". Does anyone know? It's been...

Breastfeeding Help - Milk Supply Low

Hello! I have been breastfeeding my 4 month old daughter all along and just recently I am running out of milk by bedtime. I can tell she is not getting enough to satisfy her because she just pulls away from me and cries and normally she doesn't do that. I am on Reglan which is supposed to help produce more milk and I just started the herb Fenugreek. I will do anything to get more milk. It is making bedtime a nighmare and is so upsetting to me. I have thought about supplementing with formula but I really don't want to.

What to Do If 2 Month Old Is Getting Constipated?

I have a 2 month old baby girl with silent reflux. It is getting much better now do to prevacid and switching her formula to soy. My dr had adviced us to try rice in her formula at first, which we tried but I just didn't think it was doing her any good so I took her off. It's been almost a week, she is in such a better mood but I feel she is getting constipated, possibly because of the soy, and maybe the rice she had for a week or so???? If anyone knows anything I could give her that would be safe and effective that would be great. I have...

12 Month Old Allergic to Milk?

Hello moms! My 12 month old recently made the switch to organic whole milk. He has been having a major problem with constipation and then diarrhea. Then, after his milk this morning, he threw up. He's been on regular milk for about a week now and before he was doing fine on regular formula. (He was on Enfamil since i had to stop breastfeeding at 6 months.) I was wondering if anyone has heard of a baby being allergic to milk when they did fine on normal formula. Could his tummy upset just be coincidence? He has no other symptoms of...

14 Month Old Soaking Through Diapers at Night

My 14 month old son has recently (in the past week or 2 weeks) started soaking through his diaper at night. We put him down at 6:15pm and he sleeps until about 6:30am. We use the Costco Size 4 diapers and have never had a problem before. They fit him just fine and certainly aren't too small. For the past week or so, every morning when I go to get him up all his pajamas and sleeper are soaked with pee (in the front near his stomach). I went out yesterday and bought a pack of more expensive diapers hoping we could use them at night and...
