It depends what you as a mother is eating IMO. My stepdd's teeth had

comp,letely rotted out on a strict vegan macrobiotic diet consumed by her and

her

mom by age 2. My older dd's teeth were starting to decay and I changed our diets

and the decay stopped.

I've been breastfeeding with the band okay too - Dillon just got his

band, hates it, but he actually can breastfeed in it - for me, it

took a little maneuvering and sometimes adjusting the band depending

on the way I was breastfeeding (harder when I was laying down next

to him and feeding) but overall that parts been okay!

Jenn,

A lot of moms have continued breastfeeding after their baby has been

banded. Usually it is a bit awkward at first but they get the hang of

it. I've heard to use a pillow on your arm too.

Hi Jenn!

I breastfeed my banded little one, he's 5 1/2 months. I found using

the boppy pillow helps (if you do the cradle/cross-cradle position),

it coushions his head and my lap. Since he's still young, he still

fits on the boppy. I tried the " my breast-friend " pillow and it just

wasn't soft enough for Nate to rest his banded head on.

Wearing the band didn't phase him one bit, he loves to eat! However,

if Nate keeps eating like a horse I may have to look for a super-size

boppy if they make one :o)

Good Luck and Welcome.

i forgot when i replied earlier that lying down with oliver next to

me helped for nursing. kept the doc band from pushing into his head

from my arm. it def took awhile to get used to lying down nursing -

but once we figured it out it became a favorite position.
