Does anyone know where I can find a pair of black pants in size 6 - 9 months for my daughter? Gymboree has some, but I don't wish to spend that much as babies grow soooooo fast. I was thinking more along the lines of Old Navy, Kmart, Target, etc. I have looked at all of the stores mentioned online without any luck. Is it too soon to try finding fall/winter clothing?

We let my brother's girlfriend babysit our son today. Not normally a problem except I just realized that she GOT HIS HAIR CUT!!!! Is it just me, or is a baby's first hair cut something that the parents should get done or at least authorize? I know it's just hair, but he's our first child and it's his first hair cut! My hubby is pissed. I have no idea what to do. Well, there's nothing I can do about the hair, but what do I do about her?

My 8 month old loves to roll onto his stomach, I will go in an roll him onto his back but he will roll right back onto his side or his stomach. All the SIDS information has me freaked out. I know my mom put me on my stomach but that was in the 70s before the push for back sleeping. He doesn't have the greatest upper body strength but he is able to roll from side to side. Am i a paranoid mom or should I get some wedges to confine him?

My husband and I have Two girls of our own, ages 12 and 8. When I was 25 I had to have a hysterectomy. We decided to become foster parents so we could have more children. We have been foster parents for a total of 8 years before deciding to adopt. We adopted two little girls and we are very thankful for them, but I have wanted another baby for the past 6 years. The agencies that we have worked with, only had older children. We do not have the money to adopt a child threw an adoption agency and the state says that they dont have any babies that need homes. Having a baby is all I can think about and it is making me crazy. I feel empty inside and cant seem to do anything that helps. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Is this country so prude that it can't tolerate something so natural as a mother breast-feeding her child? I was shocked to hear about people getting bent over the issue of BabyTalk (distributed in doctors offices) which showed a child breastfeeding. It was a well done pic from the side (no nipple or anything), yet people still got squeamish over it.

My 5mo daughter is finally getting over a serious bacterial illness. Now I'm trying to clean up all her sheets, clothes, toys, etc to get rid of old germs. Her stuffed animal toys say not to machine wash. How can I clean them in a way to ensure they are germ-free? Some are just regular stuffed animals, some are stuffed with squeakers/rattles inside.

My husband and I always go on vacation every year during Labor Day to visit relatives. Last year was the first time we had our new baby girl with us. It went rather smoothly. Of course, she was only 5 months old then. This year, I'm a little worried about a few things. The 9 hr. drive: She doesn't like to sit still for very long and Daddy is very impatient. I'm worried that I'll have to deal with a screaming child and a ticked off husband (not to mention me being stressed out). Once we get there: Obviously, she's not going to remember anybody there, so I'm worried that once we get there, she won't calm down enough to stay our usual one week. Sleeping: Last year we just brought her playpen and she was fine sleeping in that. I don't know if that's a good idea this year, but she's also too small to sleep in a regular bed. And I'm certainly not getting in the habit of her sleeping with us, so that is out of the question. Can someone please help with suggestions on these 3 issues? Thank you

Please guide me with the list of things that i need to take with me(including the number of baby's dresses, towels etc) and the necessary preparations for the journey to be trouble free and enjoyable for both of us.

I knew while I was pregnant I was going to have a c-section so we bought a bed for my recovery to put in the nursery. On top of the bed we purchased one of those co-sleepers for infants to stay safe in. I knew he wasn't going anywhere and I could barely move so I knew I was staying put unless I had to get up. So after time my son and I both got used to sleeping together and I have really enjoyed it. I never thought I would have. Well now my son is starting to turn over and a sleep positioner will not keep him safe. A few nights ago we brought the crib over next to the bed and I began starting him in there. He slept for a 6 hours (like normal) then he was back to bed with me. Every time I try and put him back in the crib he just lays there wide awake, rolling around or playing with his feet. For both our sakes we need some sleep. SO... today I went out and purchased a glider. I really want to get the bed out of the room and for both of us to get some sleep. Any other ideas???????????
