Pregnancy & Parenting - 6 February 2007

This is a follow up to earlier question about being 24 weeks pregnant with a bad cold. I know sudaphed is OK but are we talking about the old sudaphed that now you have to ask the pharmacist for or the new one the Sudaphed PE that does not contain suphedrine. I know that suphedrine is used by people to make crystal meth, that is why I can't see why it is Ok to take it pregnant, when I take I feel like I am on speed and it freaks me out to think my baby is getting this.

Here is the situation, I watch my brothers two girls one is 11 months and the other is 7. I have the 11 month old from 630am to 630pm Monday thru Thursday. They pay me $75 a week. I have my own kids to take care of on top of them I have a 4yr,2yr,8mo. of my own and I feel that I am not giving enough attention to my own children. I feel like I give all of my attention to my neices. The 11month old is a hand full she cries over every thing. So that is what I do. My family and I are planning on moving out of state so I have alot of things that I need to do for the move but I cant do it with my nieces here. So I guess my question is how do I tell them that I can not watch there kids. Part of the reason is I just cant handel that many kids right now because of the ages so I need some advice on how I tell my brother and sister n law that I can no longer watch their girls. Please help. I really need to know what to do...And thanks in advance for all of the advice.

My son has been crying a lot lately off of any little thing. And he has not been listening the same, he keeps doing something that I tell him not to do. (this is not how he usually acts)

I think that he wants attention and is going through his independent stage (2 years old). Any suggestions of how I should handle this situation?

Hi, we went on a trip few weeks ago and I have to pump most of the time during flights...so I didn't breastfeed for a day, it was ok for my baby... When we came back he got a terrible cold and stuffy nose, so he didn't want to be breastfeed. No he cries when I try to feed him, and he prefer the bottle. He is almost 1 year old and has some sharp teeth and bites me when he gets mad. Any advices how to get back?

How do you deal with a whole family that is only from the husband's side and my own family is abroad?

- Very hard core mother in law (judgemental, critical and always negative any efforts I try for her), old fashioned bossy father in law who wants to govern my own marriage as if I am a project in his life, depressed and negative brother in law (who's just divorced and living with mummy and left a beautiful wife & kids alone!), and a wild sister in law that never is around to deal with her family but comes time to time and takes her mother's side when I have a problem with my mother in law.

Husband tries2 keep the peace by saying beautiful things about them that I know they do not say, as they do critisize & embaress me2 my face, so obviously they wouldn't say beautiful things behind my back as husband says they do!

How do you deal with such miserable people & not show how much you dislike them and never want to change how you are brought up by your own happy family abroad?

My daughter is off school with conjunctivitis. She is doing my head in. What should I do to keep her occupied. I've tried gagging her, but she undone the knot really quickly... Only joking. Seriously though, any ideas. Humour appreciated.
