My daughter is wanting a bedtime snack and is asking for something different. Does anyone have an easy snack that would be somewhat healthy and also be fun and simple to make?? I would appreciate your ideas. The best one gets the 10 points!!!

He use to eat 6 oz every 4 hours. Lately he only has been taking 3 oz and cries a lot. He seems hungry but then doesn't eat. We began solids at 4 months and he still eats that but his milk is dropping. What is the minumum he must have and are there any ideas to get him to drink his milk. I do believe he is teething. Lots of saliva and constantly putting his hands in his mouth. I've tried teethers but he doesn't want them. Ialso tried oralgel. I also combine breast feeding and bottle but he really hates the breast now. I just wonder to what point is it really a problem or do I just ride it out until his teeth pull through. I also notice he has NOT lost any weight but is slowly gaining compared to before.

Does the umbilical cord disconnect between mother and child on it's own eventually if not cut immediately by doctor?

I have a cousin whose been married for almost 2 years now and they've been trying to have a child but they never got their wish. However, recently, my cousin has been having shorten periods and during these short periods she's also been feeling cramps that she never had before. (During her periods, she never have major cramps only minor one that feels like a little tingle) She asked me and a bunch of my other girl cousins, but we honestly have no idea. She says that every month her "period" (if it is here period) comes, but instead of a 5 day period its comes for 3-4 days only. She really wants to know if she's pregnant. The pregnancy tests says she's not, so she's wondering if its worth going to the doctors for. Please help her. THank you.

So I'm 37 wks pregnant and I'm 3 cm dilated, 75% effaced and the doctor said that my water bulging. I get contractions off and on and I lost my mucous plug today. I also keep feeling sick to my stomach, almost like I want to puke! What I want to know is if these are contractions or if I'm just not feeling good. And when do you think that I will go into labor?

some of the questions are really graphic - and some are so dumb but still too grown up for the 6 to 8 year olds, who can read and try to read them. Then I have to answer questions that I am not sure they are ready for.

My husband and I are thinking of using my maiden name as our son's middle name.
His name would be Colin Elijah Stanek(stan-nick) Kump. I know it is long but what do you think?

I've had a sonogram at 10 weeks and I don't know what I'm seeing. I've been looking for a resource to sort of teach me what i'm looking at. Does anyone know a good place to learn more about what i'm seeing on a sonogram or maybe be able to tell me more of how to see something on a sonogram?

Thanks in advance!

my son is 22 months old. im not sure if i wnt to try and potty training him now or in a couple months or so. i dnt wana rush him. but i do have a question? my son is not on a bottle and when he wakes up in the morng his diaper isnt to wet. but some nights he will come into my rom crying and soaking wet from peeing the ed. when i take his diaper off its not that wet so his diaper didnt actualy leak. has anyone had that happened with a son? im guessing he is juz pulling his diaper down to were he kinda comes out the diaper and juz wets the bed. thats all i can think of. hes not fond at all of his diaper, when he doesnt have shorts on he pulls it off. he understands the concept off peeing and pooping and tells me when he has went, sometimes b4 he goes or as he is going. my husband and i have tried to sat him on the toilett a few time but its to big an scares him. we havent gotten the small one yet. does anyone have any suggestions how to introduce potty training that i can try? thank u

When my younger son was three years old he managed to get away from me in our local supermarket but was quickly found by a member of staff who said he was laid almost under an aisle freezer playing with a pussycat and that she would make sure he was ok. Thinking that this did not seem right i investigated immediately to find that my little boy was stroking a dead rat! What happened next should have been filmed - i pulled my son out, who not wishing to be parted with the rat brought it with him, however he lost hold and it shot into the air, minus its tail towards a group of staff who thought i was abusing my son as he was screaming. The resulting staff dispersal and screams followed by a major customer exit from the store had to be seen to be believed. The manager was incoherrant! A week later, following a major clean up operation, we returned to the store to find that my infant daughter of 8 weeks old had won a large cuddly toy in a competition for which she had not been entered!

I have tried all the diapers and the one that he only leaks out of 3x a week is pampers cruisers. Yes, i have tried the regular pampers and they leak with him. he is in a size 3 but when he graduates to a size 4, i am switching to huggies overnights. do you have this problem?

or no accidents. The thing is she has a hard time holding it. She can get from one room to the bathroom...but that's as far as she gets. If i'm out...at the mall or something, she wont hold it so i can get to a rest room. She's been "home" potty trained for a about 3 weeks. How long will it take for her to hold it a little longer. Any tips on helping her with that?
