Pregnancy & Parenting - 1 August 2006

my son recently "forgot" what the word "no" means. he used to listen and would stop the action if we said "no!" firmly...now..forget about it. i tried popping his hand when he would get into stuff, but if i did that everytime, i would pop his hand 1000 times a day and i don't want to do that. i've tried telling him "no" and showing him what he is allowed to play with, but he goes back to the computer keyboard (for example)...i've put most everything up out of his reach...but somethings you can't...also he hits me and whoeverelse is holdin him in the face...how do i stop this behavior?

I see all these alternative punishments. How many of your parents did this instead of spanking you?

I know usually for the birth of a new baby, the norm is to give presents that the BABY can use, but this was a particularly rough birth on my sister and I'm wondering what kinds of things people who JUST gave birth would like? I would like to put together a nice variety package for her and any ideas would be appreciated! I've never had a child myself so I figure I might get better ideas from anyone who has...

I know that most of you parents have to deal with this at different stages of your child's life. The main reason why we had him sleeping in our bed is so that we could get some sleep, but now it's getting difficult for my husband and I to get close and snuggly with our little one in the middle.

e few months ago when my son was eating baby food, he ate anything you gave him. i was very dilligent about giving him a varioty of fruits and veggies and meats. no sugar or hardly any salt. now that he's eating toddler food fron gerber and "grown up food" off our plates, he won't come near a veggitable unless it's potato. he still drinks about 16 ounces of formula a day, so i know he's getting nutrition from that, but how do i get him to eat more than breads, meats, and mashed "taters", and applesauce?

I really need a double stroller. I have a 3 1/2 month old and a 2 year old. I don't want to switch cars right now, so if you have any suggestions, they will be of great help!

for the longest time i was always trim, thin & fit... yet in the past few months or so i've put on ALOT of weight!!! like i was 165ish now i'm between 206 & 217... most of the weight i have gained on purpose!! plus my fond love for sweets (which i binge on ALL the time) & my lack of exercise helps my "gaining" ;-)

anyway, i see my dr. soon & am worried. also, my all of my clothes have busted or are too tight it cuts my circulation. i am only 17 so i don't have any health effects besides my fair share of stretch marks on my inner thighs & side of my waist. yet, i just love the way my belly is so nice bein full & flabby!!!

i hope this is quite alright. becuz as i said i am perfectly content wit my weight... and plan to continue my weight gain!! becuz there is nothing better than flesh & folds on myself... or on another woman in my oppinion. so i hope to hear some invaluable insight on what you guyz think of this. for i'm not THAT overweight & i am quite attractive! peace erich ;-D

I am 5 months pregnant with my third child and I have been having so much back pain. I didn't have this much back pain with my first two. I know it isn't labor pain because i know how both front and back labor feel likes. Tylenol does not work. I thought maybe a heating pad would help but it only makes me feel hotter than i already am...HELP!

I've always wanted to have my baby sleep in my room until they can sleep through the night. Do we need to have a separate bedroom for our baby in order to pass our homestudy?
