Breastfeeding and drinking alcohol...
Hello there! I am brand new to motherhood and brand new to breastfeeding. I have read that drinking alcohol while breastfeeding can be harmful to your newborn... is that true?

I have not allowed tummy sleeping - not at an age when she can't roll back.. and I still prefer her to be on her back...

Choosing whether or not to circumcise your son can be a difficult choice. The important thing to remember is that circumcision is a choice.
