Bread is such a divisive thing these days. What once was considered the staff of life is now either a wonder food or a wicked indulgence. I’ve been on both sides of that fence and I’m happy to be back smack dab in the middle where bellies need to be filled, bodies need to…
I stand in the kitchen snuggling my cooing babe while looking up at her oldest brother and the juxtaposition leaves me breathless. I hold onto that baby like she’s oxygen because, I ask myself daily, will this be the last one? I know I’ve asked myself the same thing with the previous three but I’m…
I seem to keep coming back to menu planning as a post for Mondays. I hope you don’t mind. It helps to focus me for the week and keeps me a bit more accountable. It is also fun since I am trying to use what we have and I enjoy cooking and planning meals much…

Golden sunshine streams through the Eastern window and I hear the milk pale swing from its hook. Boil water for coffee, chop potatoes for the skillet, and wrangle Joshie and Ruthie into chairs. Breakfast is later and later in October, in accordance with the sunrise. Stewart set aside a couple of roosters last night so right…
I know it’s 90 degrees out there, but here I go again with another recipe to use up those fifty pounds of oats that you bought. Wait, that was me. Whether you’ve got fifty pounds of rolled oats or five, you’re gonna want to try this recipe. It may be better suited for fall or…

Hi, I read your post on H2B@H. Do you know there are quite a lot of chocies of herbs you could take to build your milk supply up so you wouldn’t have to give the baby homemade formula?
Erin – Yep. I have taken every herb I could get my hands on, pumped around the clock, eaten every galactogogue in the book. I have a low thyroid that I am working on healing, which I suspect is the root cause of the milk supply issues. Thank you for your comment.
I read your guest post and wanted to comment about your milk supply issue. I nursed my 3 children from 12-18 months each and had supply problems with one of them. My doctor placed me on Reglan for a few weeks to help increase my supply. This medication is used for stomach problems or something not normally associated with lactation but it was successful in my friend and I.
He made several phone calls and read material about it before prescribing it but it works!
I also pumped on one side while the baby nursed on the opposite side every time or at least every other time to boost the demand.
Just a few tips that I thought you would like to hear to go back to all natural if possible.
