Help with Weaning

So, my daughter in now 15 months old and we have been working toward weaning. For the past 3 months we have worked our way down to one feeding a day. Yesterday (Wed) was the first day that she was not breastfed. So now I am in horrible pain and not sure what to do. I did an internet search and one site says one thing and another site says the opposite. So here I am asking you moms for advice. What do I do to make my milk production and the pain stop? Please help. They feel like giant footballs and my kids want to crawl all over me and play,...

Infant and Benadryl

My 8 month old son weighs 16 pounds, 12 ounces and his doctor prescribed 1/2 teaspoon of Benadryl before bedtime. Everything I read says not to do it unless they are a year old. I'm afraid to give him the Benadryl. Has anyone given their child who is under a year old Benadryl?

Nervous About Giving 6 Month Old Benadryl

Hi ladies, My six month old has been up with a stuffy nose and coughing for the past two nights.

We want to keep trying what we have been doing (running the humidifier, going into a steamed bathroom, maybe try sleeping in a car seat or with her head elevated, saline drops) before trying the benadryl. Not that I am against medicines, but I am nervous about giving this to her unless she is really...
