I am finally taking everyone including my doctors advice on putting a baby gate up in her doorway and letting her cry herself to sleep. She is 2 1/2. But she still stays up until 2 AM like before... she just screams the whole time. It has been 3 nights now. Will she eventually stop and just accept the fact that bedtime is at 9? I am doing a routine with her. And I am stopping long naps. I feel so terrible but I cant keep giving in to her. She throws bad fits in her room.
What time should I wake her up in the morning? Is 9 too late?

I need to establish a good bedtime routine for my 2 year old daughter, as we have a new baby coming in a couple of weeks. What types of things do you do with your little one other than bath and books?

Hi there,
My husband and I will be actively trying to conceive this month. I have stopped using retin-A, but I'm wondering if my husband needs to also stop using it. If you have any suggestions or advice, it would be greatly appreciated. I'm sure I could call my dermatologist tomorrow, but I wondered if anyone out there has had this experience before.

My own kids are 6 and they can entertain themselves pretty well. They play with Transformers for hours, thhey watch tv or play video games quietly, they make up games together. I think part of this is because they are twins, and they have each other.

BUT... the 6 year old that I take care of (I'm a nanny during the day), has no idea how to entertain himself. I don't feel like my job as his nanny is to play with him every moment of the day. He doesn't need that much attention, and I don't think it's good for kids to have that much attention. We play games and read stories, and play soccer in backyard. But whenever I tell him I have something to do (like make lunch or clean up) or just when I need a break and that he needs to just go and play; all he does is just lie on the floor doing nothing, or he starts being really loud and annoying and basically getting into trouble.

So how do we teach kids to entertain themselves, use their imagination?

If a 14 year old is pregnant, what do you think she should do? What would be so bad about keeping the baby? Couldn't she just be homeschooled and get a job? I think it could work, but then why do so many teens give their babies up, or even worse, get abortions??????

Ok so I just noticed as I walking my inner thighs feel as if they are bruised. Not only that it hurts to walk because it feels like I have something putting pressure in my lower groin. What do you think it could be and has anyone else had this? I'm 35 weeks and 4 cm dialated. The doctor told me today that the baby was still pretty high up and he doesn't thinkhe has dropped.

When its just me and her she good and listens to me. but as soon as her dad or someone else comes in the house she thinks that she doesnt have to listen to me and starts running, jumping, and yelling in the house. and she has to constantly be told to stop. Also if she stays the night at someone elses house they always tell me that she is sooo good. but as soon as i walk in the door to pick her up then she starts to misbehave again. So is just me or what can i do to? please help.

my 8 month old has started grunting for past two days while falling asleep and few time during night. She is having her usual 2 poops per day and i wouldnot suspect constipation. All i notice is she has prickly heat rashes on her neck. She does not have noticeable cold symptoms but off late she has been sniffing with her nose. She has not cut any teeth yet.
Can anybody think any possible reason for grunting.
Thanks
