Newborn & Baby - June 2006

She has been sleeping with my husband and I since she was 4 months. If I put her in the crib she screams, bangs her head and arms getting bruises. I have tried the Ferber method but she doesn't stop crying and she refuses to lay down. Any suggestions?

My son is a preemie 10mnth chr.- 7 month adjusted and all I feel my husband and I do is stim him with physical activities- bouncing, playing on us, swing in johhny jumper- when ever I try to read or play a game- he gets very agitated- he does not like being in playpen alone with toys- he either wants to be held and entertained physically or fed where he falls asleep for very short intervals- 45 minutes....I am afraid he is going to need ADHD meds by the time he is 1....

A friend of mine had such a quick labour that she ended up having her baby in her bathroom, delivered by her very shocked husband!

This doesn't happen every single time, but my baby starts to cry when she's being picked up. I looked her over, (head, neck, shoulders, back) and nothing seems to be physically wrong with her.
However, when I slide my hand under her and she knows she's going to be lifted, she crys. If she's already crying, when I pick her up, she will sometimes cry harder.
What's wrong? Is it the sensation of being lifted? Does it just trigger more fussiness? Am I actually hurting her? Is she just releasing some energy?
I don't get it. It's not just when I pick her up (she does this when my hubby and mother pick her up too), and it's not just when I pick her up a certain way. Again, it's not EVERYtime someone picks her up either, but she seems to cry about it more often than not.
She settles down after a short time while I'm holding her, but it's pretty distressing in the meantime.

He used to ALMOST sleep through the night in his cradle next to my bed. Now, in his crib in his own room, he wakes up at least once crying. What should I do to help him? How will he learn to go back to sleep on his own?

the doctor told me to give him iron drops and said they would constipate him, but he has had the reverse effect and extreme diarrhea. The doctor told me to just give him Pedialyte for 24 hours, but he was obviously hungry and I fed him. Is there something over the counter that I can give him?

We have a four and a half month old little boy named Rubius. For the past two to three weeks, he has been doing what everyone says is 'testing'. He only does it to me though. If I put him down, leave the room, or try to play peek-a-boo with him, he cries because he thinks I'm not there. It's starting to get really stressful though because 1: this is my first child and 2: I just don't know what to do. I don't want to spoil him, because he's already trying to see how often he can get picked up and whatnot. How can I deal with this and when does it stop??? lol Thanks.

My baby is almost 9 months old and I still give her cooled boiled water to drink and also use it to make her juice.
When would I be allowed to start using tap water because it'd be so much easier.

I have two coupons that say 'save $3.00 on Little Tikes diapers but I can't find them anywhere. The coupons don't expire until December. Do you think they're not making them yet and just sending out coupons in advance? Or does anyone know who sells them? I live in NC if that makes a difference.

I have read in a couple of book that some boys have problems brestfeeding after getting circumcision done. This is one of the things that is really making me scarried about this whole thing. Once he comes out they give him shots and everything , so it's just wise to get it all done at once so they don't have to hurt him later on. but getting circumcision done interfears with brestfeeding.. Can someone help me with their experiences? and tell me how their sons reacted?
