for no real reason other than he has to eat. He eats this stuff alot so its not like he hates it. He's just being a brat, so anyways I put him in his room for a few minutes until he calms down...is this a good way to deal?

mayl little guy weights 15 pounds is that normal, he was 6 pounds 13 ounces at birth is he too heavy? And could this effect him when he gets older. He eats 4 to 5 ounces every feeding, how much should he be eating?

Is it OK If one breast is slightly bigger than the other which is not noticeable but it is. There is no tumor or cancer and Cannot afford surgergy.

I've been having trouble with this for a while. I've tried flavored kid's toothpaste, different kinds of brushes, and nothing has helped. I'm worried about her getting cavities, but she just won't let me brush them.

I am 39 and at about 7 weeks pregnant. My breasts were extremely tender for about 3 weeks and now, not so much. There has been no discernable change in my breasts except for the tenderness and maybe a bit bigger than normal. My aerola's do not seem to be getting darker or bigger. Also, I have been nauseated but only gotten sick twice. Should I be concerned? This is my 2nd pregnancy-I miscarried my first and so the stress level is really high and I'm just so worried that I may lose this one as well.
Thanks for all your input!

Do you chat often? If so, what chat rooms do you like the most?

I am 27. I got off the pill June 28th. I was on it for about 8 years. I still am not pregnant and I know it can take up to a year to get pregnant, but I am wondering, how old were you when you got pregnant, and how long did it take you to get pregnant after getting off the pill?

...and how does that work? is it linked to genetics?

i know how twins are formed...by the egg splitting or by the fertilization of two eggs and all that.

I want to increase my chances of having twins. Any tips?

I actually need the ages and weights that are legal. I don't want to move her to a booster unless it is ABSOLUTELY safe to do so. Thanks.

I go running everyday with my 18-month-old in the baby jogger. He used to be great but he's starting to get bored. I give him his snack, sing to him, point things out, and he likes to press the buttons on Baby Tad although most toys just fall out of the stroller. Any unique ideas on how to keep him occupied?

My son is 2.5 and I don't nap him some days and some other days I do. The only problem with not napping him is between the hours of 4:00 -6:00 I keep running to the living to see if he's fallen asleep on the couch every 2 minutes, it drives me nuts because I don't want him to fall asleep during that time. I keep telling him "don't fall asleep" and he tells me to go away! I want to keep him busy so he won't sleep but I guess he's so drowsy he keeps telling me to get lost (not literally).
The reason why I don' tnap him is because he'll go and sleep 11 hours at night and won't nap at a normal time during the day so the window of opportunity is missed.
When did you decide to stop napping him/her and how long did they sleep at night? What determined when you stopped?

My husband is worried because our daughter still isn't walking. She is 13 months old and she will stand on her own for a little while with out holding on to anything and she will walk along the couch and stuff. I keep telling him to give her time. But he doesn't listen to me. What can I tell my husband?

I am making Halloween costumes for my kids I already have plans for all my others, but my 11 year old is being difficult. Doesn't like any of my ideas and can't think of any for herself. Can you think of anything for her?

Money isn't too big an issue. I can stitch some but not really sew (don't even have a machine)?
We enter contests every year so we don't use store bought ones.

The past few of years she has been a tooth fairy, Miss America, and Wendy Witch. She wants something to make her pretty but not a princess because it's too "childish" LOL.

Usually my period is pretty heavy and lasts for 6-7 days with really bad cramping. This month what seemed like my period came about a week early and was of medium flow with almost no cramping and lining present the first day, the 2&3 day was very little blood (only showed when wiped) im not sure on exact dates but the last last time I had sex was approx 11 days after my last period (condom broke). I am also not feeling quite like myself, have had an upset tummy off and on, dull pain in my lower back, breasts a little bit sensitive. I am not asking this question in place of taking a test or going to the doc, just curious on what you all think. Whatever the out come im ready to step up to the plate.
Ps. sorry bout all the details.

I asked this question earlier but got a lot of advice on potty training my child. I'm really just curious if anyone knows exactly why my 18-month-old goes and hides when he's pooping.
