It looks identical to the mary meyer Lucy Lamb from her flip flops collection but instead of being 12" it is closer to 8" or 9". We ordered and received the full size lucy lamb and they are identical except lucy is bigger. My daughter loves this stuffed animal and I can't seem to find it anywhere. I tried contacting the company and they just bounced me to their retailer who said such a thing does not exsist. someone please help as when this thing finally gives out she will be heartbroken. Im willing to pay anything for this exact stuffed animal.

Do you think it's possible that children who are mostly around adults develop quicker? After thinking about my own 2 yr old daughter and how smart she is, I thought about how she has little to no interaction with others her age. Could her knowledge of words & other things be in part due to the fact that everyone she spends her days with are loving adult family members who give her all their attention?

P.S. she plays very well with others her age when she does have the chance. not shy and such a share bear.

Hi. I've been on Ortho Novum 777 for about 3 months now I think going on 4 months. Is it normal for this pill to cause yeast infections or painful urination after intercourse? I've also experienced a sorness in the lower part of my stomach plus bowl movements frequently. And also, the last time I came close to a period was a few weeks ago and it looked to be a brownish discharge. My cousin experienced that too and said it was normal. Is all this something I should check into to be safe or is it signs of pregnancy? Let me also say I have never missed a pill nor the correct time to take it. Thanks for the help!!!

For the past 5 days, EVERY TIME we eat, he gets food caught in his throat and has to... basically clear his throat. He doesn't do it when he drinks and he says it doesn't hurt. I thought at first maybe he just picked up a bad habbit but it really doesn't seem like it now. He also hasn't had a BM in at least 4 days. He's normally pretty regular.
I took him to see his doctor and he said that he didn't see or feel anything unusual but if the problem continues then I need to bring him back monday and they are going to set up running some tests.

My 16 yr old niece met a guy (17 years old) from another province on the net and he moved to be with her. She has been online for 3 years meeting guys. She can't function in the real world (has no friends) My divorced mom has custody of her. This is causing a huge conflict in the family. My niece is a spoiled brat and always has been. My mom gets defensive when asked about it. She is buying condoms and the pill for my niece. She is a Christian and it seems like something is going on with her to allow this behaviour.

In your honest opinion, is there ever a need for a woman to have more than 1 abortion? Statistically speaking, very few abortions happen due to rape/incest, the life of the mother or unborn baby is threatened. occurence to the mother or unborn child. What do you think?

I'm curious about the best brands of formula that other mothers have found. I am not going to be able to breastfeed. I'm thinking about getting a couple of different brands to have on hand. I know that a lot will depend on my baby, but I would still like some advice.

My mother in law is constantly taking her other grandson (not my child) for overnights and won't take her other grandson (my child) and she has every excuse in the book not to take our son and the mother of this child says she takes him because she feels bad that his dad isn't actively in his life (he is seldomly). Me and my boyfriend have both brought this up with his mom but she still doesn't seem to care, we even rub in her face that my mom takes him constantly and it doesn't bother her, i'm very aggravated and angry about this, not to mention MY dad has NEVER taken my son either and doesn't spend quality time with his grandson, I feel my son is the victim here. What should I do, i'm at my wits end with dealing with the mother in law and my dad on this situation?? PLEASE HELP!!

My daughter just turned 2 last month & I'm wondering if she is ahead of the game development wise. She can count to 15, tries to sings ABC's, knows colors, hundreds of words, knows different body parts, speaks in phrases & is very socially outgoing & alert to everything around her. I can almost always translate what she saying or trying to tell me.
My girlfriend has a 4 yr old boy & commented the other day how he is learning his colors in preschool, and my other girlfriend has a boy who also just turned 2, but he hardly even talks.

Are girls just more advanced at this age, or is she on the road to being pretty smart?

What would happen if I were to have a baby son, but paint his room pink, pink or hot colored clothing, and at the time of playing age, things such a dolls or mirrors. Would this help my child acquaint with girls more than boys like todays gender sterotypes? Because most families give there specific genders either a doll or a truck, boys hang out with only boys, while girls only hang out with girls. Could this end this sterotypes and have a boy playing with the girls not udnerstanding that he isnt one of them, or any other child along these lines?
