I make my sons food for him and he is a Vegetarian. Besides lentils and egg yolks what can I give him? I have a booklet from a WIC office that say he can't have egg whites, peanut butter, straw or raspberries, or diary products before one year of age. I am supposed to introduce him to protiens now but what can I give him?

He is on both formula and breastmilk, but mostly formula. He cries non stop until you give him a bottle. He is finishing 4 oz quickly. He is gaining weight very quickly. My mother thought we could replace 1 or 2 of his bottles with just nursery water. So that he doesn't gain weight to fast and have problems. Is this safe?

Ok, here's the situation.

Everyone has started asking "So, what are some names you've picked out, your babe's due in 3 months!"

I tell them one or two of the names.

Then they proceed to tell me my child will be teased forever and ever because of the name, which happens to be original (my husband invented it).

Last time I checked my friend "Elizabeth" was teased, and was called "LizardBreath". Even common names get made fun of...

What makes the unusual name such a target? Much more, why do people actually think that by telling us our child will be teased, that we are going to take their word for it, and pick a different name?

During her first two and a half months of life, our baby would poop even 4 times a day, but now it does not seem close to happening.... my wife stopped eating milk-derivatives (cheese, milk, some breads, yogurt) but now the baby has gone 80 hours just passing gas but no stool.... Is this a sign of constipation, should we use another glycerin suppository?? We have talked to the doctor, and he said yes, but we used a suppository for the first time 80 hours ago and the baby had a stool, but we just dont want to make her grow dependent on that.

My daughter is turning two months old next week, is it too early to have her ears pierced? A friend told me that pediatricians now do it at their offices. Is that true?

If you saw this magazine cover at the supermarket or on the table at a doctor's office would you pick it up and read it or cover your eyes and flip it over? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14065706/

My son is 10 months old. He is crawling and pulling up on things to stand. If I don't give him my complete attention he will stand and scream and scream until I pick him up. He screams so long and so hard! I've tried to just ignore him, but it seems to just make him more angry. I thought he was maybe teething, but he always stops screaming once I pick him up. Is this extreme separation anxiety? Does anyone have a child that behaves this way? Does anyone have any suggestions or tips about what I can do to change this behavior? He's driving me crazy and I can't get anything done!!!

I am a first time mother and I admit I dont have a clue what I am doing. I have a 9 day old baby and she has been really gassy lately. She hasnt had a bowel movement and I feel really bad for her. She was pretty cranky all night and all day today. What can I do for her? Also her skin is peeling all over her body is this normal?

Not looking for advice, I'm askin!

We found it easy, using advice from the Baby Whisperer, Tracy Hogg.

E - eat
A - activity
S - sleep (baby)
Y - you time!

We applied this from day one and had no problems but others I know still (9 months on) don't have their children in a routine.

How did you manage?
