Pregnancy & Parenting - 21 December 2006

I called the doctor and she said to watch her and if it hadn't passed through by Tuesday she would need a x-ray. She also asked if my daughter was wheezing...at the time I talked to the dr. she wasn't(yesterday) But now she is wheezing, so I am stressing about what to do. She also has had a cold these past couple of days, so the wheezing could be related to that. The reason I am asking is because my Dr. office is now closed for the holiday. Any advice? Has this happened to you?

I am currently nursing my 10.5 month old son, and am thinking about giving him some whole milk in the near future and am trying to do some reading up on it, and would like some advise from people who have done the switch from breast to whole milk. Did you use a sippy cup ? and was this just given at meal time or a sippy cup used as a whole feed (before nap, or bedtime)
If you used a bottle, how/when did you loose the bottle ?

My son does drink from a bottle only once a day already, but if it's a hard habit to break, don't really want to go down that road...ANd he does know how to drink from a sippy cup as well. THANKS !

i have a 10 - week old baby girl, she usually take 3-4 oz during each feeding in every 4 hours, but some people told me that's not enough for a 10 week old baby girl, she should take 5 - 6 oz during each feeding, is that true? This is first time for me to be mom.

Everyone seemed to need to know more so I will be more specific: He is 18 months old. Had a stomach bug 11/8 had a cold 11/18 had the stomach bug again 12/2 and now has something again not sure what cause we go to the DR in a few hours but has a temp of 101.7 last night and 100.4 this morning. Doesnt that seem like alot of illness in a month or is it true that during these months once you get sick and your immune system is down you stay down for awhile?

I have a niece that is very smart. She is going to graduate this year. Has a very good head on her shoulders, she knows her priorties. She wants to go to college but, her mom says it's a waist of time and money. Her father is on crack and her mother seems to not be all there. By the way he is my brother. So she wanted to leave not to get married or be with her boyfriend. Just in order to be able to finish school and go to college so she ran away. So I told her I would take her in. She's 17 years old. Will I have any problems legally? I believe she would be better of in a stable home.

I've been potty training my 3yrs old son for 6 mos. now and I'm about to snap. For months he has been "almost" potty trained. He goes when we are at home most of the time but I can't get him to go when we are out. At home he just peed in his pants right in front of me and then told me he had to go? I know you are suposta stay positive, but it takes all my effort not to yell at him. What do you do when they know better but they go in their pants anyway? I've read all the books, we've done reward etc. I'm looking for some creative suggestions to save my sanity and get him over the hump and into dry pants. Thanks.

Ok i have only had sex with my husband. We have been trying for the last 2 months to get pregnant. No sign. After intercourse my husband sperm leaks out of me immediately. Could this be a reason why?? Is this suppose to happen. Someone told me this only happens when your pregnant. Im not pregnant for sure. So could this mean i might never get pregnant???

Since I've returned to work I feel that my milk supply is decreasing. I wanted to see if there is any way of increasing my milk supply. I'm currently pumping (manually) but its hard because of my 11 hour schedual and its tiresome to use my manual pump. (I'm getting an electric one soon) but I feel since i'm not breastfeeding as often I feel my supply decreasing is there anything I can take (tea, supplements) to increase my milk supply ?

Yeah, I don't want to be known as a nerd anymore. It's getting sickening. I got Honors classes, and I made the A and B Honor Roll (kudos to meself).

Anyway, how can I change myself so I can be someone new? I still want to recieve the same grades. I also want people to see me as a dude who is nice to people and that girls want.

That or a newer life.

When looking back at the weeks between ovulation and finding out you were pregnant what signs/sympotoms did you have that you ignored/missed? Or did you have early symptoms and brushed them off to other things (PMS?)? Or did you know you were pregnant because of the symptoms? How long after conceptioon did they start?

I got the cotton crib sheets that match the baby's nursery set. I have washed them 2 times with Dreft on warm wash/ cold rinse and gentle tumble dry - but they still aren't soft and comfy. I know you are not supposed to use fabric softener because it can be irritating to newborn skin.... does anyone know what I can do to softren up these sheets?
