My 2-year old daughter is itching in her private area? I think she may have an infection. Is it possible for a baby to have a yeast infection or something? What could be wrong and what can I give ger to sooth her until I can get her to the doctor's?

Cloth diapers have changed alot. Don't believe me? Check out some on www.bum-ware.com Not my site, ,but I have purchased a few diapers from her.

If you don't, why? They are good for the environment. They are good for little bottoms. They are good for the ole wallet.

I was really suprised to find that disposible diapers have ingredients that were banned from tampons in the eighties. We can't use them once a month, but we will strap them on our babies behinds for years!

How does being around or touching a cat's litter box harm the unborn baby inside of you? Will it cause you to miscarry? Is it safe to even be in the same house or room as a litter box?

I had a dream that I was holding a beautiful baby girl in my arms and she was mine and my b/f's child. When I woke up I had this empty feeling inside of me like something was missing. That isnt the first time I have ever had a dream like that before. About 5 months ago I had a dream that I had a baby boy and when I woke up I had the same feeling.

My mom watches my two sons (one will be one year old next week, the other will be 28 months old next week) while I work during the day. She insists on feeding them two large meals (breakfast and lunch) during the day instead of two smaller meals and two snacks. She says they eat better/larger meals if she doesn't give them snacks. I believe if the snack is healthy (fruit, yogurt, etc.) then it shouldn't make a difference if they don't eat ALL of their breakfast or lunch, or eat a huge portion. I would rather feed my boys six small meals than three huge ones. Anyone who has a two year old knows that they are prone to "meltdowns" periodically, and I have to wonder if my older son is behaving like this because of low blood sugar. It just doesn't seem right to me to have two young children eat breakfast at 7:30 a.m., then have NOTHING between then and lunch time (about noon). She does give them juice when she brings them in from their walk in the a.m., but that's it. Advice?

okay, i've realized, im obsessive, i guess.. cuz when my friend sean's phone wasn't working for 2 months, i thought i'd never talk to him again and this is one of my best friends, so i ended up going so far as calling his school, and mom's work to see if he moved or died.
now my ex boyfriend robert's phone is not working, and hasn't been for 5 days and i miss him very badly, which once i remember how badly he has treated me i'm like **** him, it looks bad for me to run back after breaking up with him... and i think about calling 411 and seeing if he has a phone in a different city, but im restraining from doing it..
is anyone else like me??

I'm 15 and active, if you know what I mean. My period is still very irregular and has been for almost 2 years so I cant rely on that to know if I'm pregnant or not. Is there any symptoms I should look for and is there anything I can get that is inexpensive and that I dont have to go to a pharmacy for that I can use to check?
Thanks =]

I'm working on a nighttime routine for my 7 month son but for naps and currently bedtime, he's used to going to sleep in a swing. How can I break him out of it?? He's never slept in his crib yet but my ultimate goal is to get him there as quickly as possible. Thanks

I am 11 weeks and 6 days and had an appt today. She tried for about ten minutes to find the heartbeat, couldn't find it and wants me to do an Ultra Sound asap. I'm scared because I thought I was having a miscarriage this past weekend, but it was normal bleeding caused by a small blood clot in the placenta. I am really nervous!!!!

My baby is only 3 wks old and it seems like she is never full. She is on Lactose Intolerant formula and has been waking up every 2 hours to eat and she normally eats around 3oz. Since she is on formula she is only suppsosed to eat every 3 hours. I have tried reducing the amount she eats since she is eating every 2 hours but she she remains hungry. Is anyone having or have had this problem.

I want to know if people think her kids should be taken away. She was caught with 5 other people in her house, and they were all either using or selling drugs, with her 3 and 1 year old children there. There were needles laying around and everything. What kind of people do this. It's pretty sad, you need a license for a car, a license for your dog, but any idiot can have kids.

I am pregnant. My mom has known I have always wanted to get pregnant since I was 15. And I finally found a guy that I am happy with and I honestly didnt mean to get pregnant. But I am going to keep the baby. He wants to keep the baby too. The first time I went out with my boyfriend my mom didnt like him. She knows that I am back with him because he always calls the house now and asks for me not my cousin any more. I know my mom is going to be disappointed but how do I tell her without her flipping out on me. I am 17 years old and my boyfriend just turned 19 on the 22nd. And I will be 18 by the time I give birth. So I know for a fact..my mom, step-dad, dad, and step-mom are going to be a little disappoint because I still have one year left of school. Can somebody please help me? I know you all are probably going to come out with something that I am to young to be having a baby. And I know that..but I dont believe in abortions and I sure aint going to give the baby up for adption. HELP!!
