Guest guest Posted March 14, 1999 Report Share Posted March 14, 1999 I agree with you Wendi. This made me sad. (no subject) I can't remember if I have ever posted to this list or not, so please forgive me if you do not know who I am. I need help! I have nursed my son for 23 months and now have to go on a business trip that will keep me away from him for 4 nights. My husband is convinced that if he is weaned my absence will be less traumatic for him so he has basically forced me to wean him. I am very sad about this as I wanted him to wean naturally. I am also in alot of physical pain - he usually nursed 4 times - I work all day, so he would nurse when I got home, as he drifted off to sleep, once in the middle of the night, and once before getting up. If I was home during the day, he would nurse some then too. If I am out in the evenings, he has been waking up and crying for me and my husband says he won't let him touch him. He thinks if he is weaned, he will be easier to comfort. Bottom line is I am in physical pain as he has not nursed since Friday at about 5:30PM and I am in emotional pain dealing with the impending separation and the end of our nursing relationship. I tell my son, when he asks for Num Num that " Daddy says No " , which is probably not good either. Any advice anyone offers for any of this pain will be appreciated.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 1999 Report Share Posted May 18, 1999 Kathy-- I think it's worth a call to the NC Insurance Commission or whatever it's called. I think they would find it very interesting to hear. You might write a letter and send a copy to Kaiser. And definitely follow up with the guy mentioned. That is totally unethical. Maybe even illegal. Katy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 22, 1999 Report Share Posted May 22, 1999 I agree with . Definitely include the answers to those questions on one of your sub-lists for pre-ops. I like the idea of divisions. While some of our experiences are the same we also have different levels of knowledge and interest based on where we are now in the process. I love all the e-mail and reading about all the goings-on (there's an old country expression for you) but there are times when it would be so much better to just " jump " to the specific topic without wading through all the other mail.
