I Work at a day care and a young mother wants us to begin training her son, but we feel he is way to young, he can barley walk, he turned a year old about a month ago, and she is still keeping him in diapers! She is up set that we havent been training him, the problem is that no one told me when I started last week that he was being trained. He isnt talking much yet, does this to seem to early and extream of a thing to do so soon? Any suggestions about how to talk to the mother with out getting her up set would be helpful, Thank You for your answers in advance!!

Feel like I am shaking inside and need to lay down till the 'vibrating' stops?
I had it when I was depressed years ago. And now again that I am pregnant.
Is this normal? Sometimes after 1/2 day of work or just 2 hours of shopping and I feel on the edge of a breakdown.

I put my 13 week old baby to bed around 7:00. This is a new time for her, but we decided to give it a try because she cries every night after her last feeding for about an hour (very colic). Well tonight I put her to bed at 7:00, I haven't heard a peep from her but she is awake and it's now past 9:30. She is sucking her thumb, she moves a bit, sucks her thumb, etc. But she is not crying (that's new for us). She sleeps throught the night and wakes up usually between 7:30 - 9:00. Is it mean for us to leave her in her bed? I know she would cry if we would pick her up. Could it be that since I usually go to bed at the same time as her I just don't hear all her movements when I'm in bed? I feel bad.

My daughter is 7 weeks old. Of course for the first month she slept all of the time pretty much, but then she started to stay awake for longer periods. The past 3 days she has wanted to sleep off and on ALL day. I have tried many ways to stimulate her, talk to her and play with her, and put her in many different positions, but she just closes her eyes on me. At first I was worried about her not sleeping at night because of all the sleep she had during the day, but she seems to be sleeping ok, waking up to feed. Am I worrying for nothing?? Why do you think she is so sleepy? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

We are going to be moving from Texas to Wisconsin, and I am wondering if it would be better to do this during the school year of after school is out. The reason I ask, is it would give the kids a chance to meet other kids before school lets out so they have someone to play with and hang out with during the summer. Any advice anyone? Thanks

Although today I started having lower back aches. I am worried that I may be having another blighted ovum because I dont feel pregant. Can you tell me what I should see on the ultrasound tomorrow?

My son is 7 and he is always overreacting about everything. That includes if Im getting after him and trying to discipline him. He is always only with me, Im a stay at home mom and my husband works out of town. Anytime he does wrong and I begin to discipline him he completely goes beserk! For example, a few minutes ago he smacked his 3 year old brother in the head, so I got after him and told him to go to the corner and stay there until I told him to get up. He started screaming and crying really loud like I had just Beat him! I dont ever even spank him. He does this constantly and it really drives me insane and makes me very very upset. I feel like someone is going to hear him and think Im abusing him or something. ITs terrible! I dont know if he is trying to manipulate me, so I wont get after him, or if he seriously has some sort of problem. He is hyper active and His older brother has Aspergers Syndrome, but is completely different from him.
