He is very opiniated about what I should be doing. Asks why the house is not cleaned and meals not cooked. BTW I am a full time student and working from home. I am not sure that I want to be with him anymore. Not just b/c of this but other issues. Last night the baby was sick and vomited on himself on the carseat. My BF knew the baby threw up. He leaned in the window and said give me 2 minutes. He was going to smoke herb b4 getting in the car! Meanwhile the baby is sitting in a pool of his own vomit.

I have a almost 6 week old baby. When she was a week old I hemoraged and had to go back the hospital. While I was there she had to be formula fed. Now I breastfeed her and formula feed her. I was put on a high dose of iron due to the blood loss that I had but found that she wasn't haing a bowel movements but was trying very hard. I stopped taking my iron and have also switched her to a no iron formula. She still isn't regular. She will go 4-5 das without going. I was told that mixing some prune juice with water would help. I have been doing that, about an ounce of juice with ounce and a half or so of water but it seems to give her diarhea every couple of days. Does anyone have any suggestions? She is being fed alot more fomula now as my milk supply is not keeping up with her eating demands due to my blood loss.

Both questions are pretty much unrelated to each other:

1) I have discovered that my daughter LOVES bacon. Hooray!! But is it too salty for 9 month old babies?

2) Her milk teeth are just beginning to come through - they are not fully grown yet, they are still coming up. SHould I be brushing them - if so how often?

I will eventually put these queries to my health visitor later this week, but first i just wanna get some feedback from other mummies!

My baby will be 1 month old on the 27 of august, this is driving me crazy, I cant get anything done, I cant even wash my @ss sometimes, she will start feeding on a 4 oz bottle, for example at 3:00 pm, and it will be 7:00 pm sometimes, seriously and she still hasnt finished, she will feed ten minutes, stop go to sleep for 5 or ten minutes wake up again and this is driving me crazy. I live alone and have no help, and I cant breastfeed for other reasons, please give me some suggestions this is driving me insane. What can I do for her to suckle completely throught the whole 4 oz and for her to be full?

When you are at work, how do you feel. Do you feel comfortable or nervous.

I am looking for a baby swing that can connect to the electricity. It doesn't matter if it uses batteries, but it needs to have an optional plug to connect. Where can I find a swing like this???

My son who is not quite 6 months, has been having weird episodes that I thought were nightmares, but somebody said that wasn't possible. He'll be sound asleep & make a screaching sound, then start crying & pushing his arms forward (like he was trying to move or block something), but he's not awake. If I pick him up while he's doing it he'll sorta cringe until I rock him & tell him it's ok. He sometimes says mama (I don't think he knows the meaning of that yet though, he just started to do it when he gets upset).
I remember waking up when I was like 3 & 4 because of awful nightmares (obviously they were bad enough that I remember doing it). My mom said when I was about 9 months I started doing the same thing he is, until I was around 7 years old...Could it be nightmares? What can I do for him?
He by NO means has a traumatic life, or has ever seen anything traumatic. We hardly raise our voices in front of him & don't really get mad very often, so I dunno what could have triggered it.

I know all children are different and everything will happen when they are ready...but I still think sometimes that my son is "behind". I'm not panicking or stressed out about it, it just crosses my mind sometimes. Does anyone else feel like this?

My son is 12 1/2 months old and says "DaDa", "MaMa", and "YumYum". He can walk holding onto the furniture and your fingers. He can stand by himself, but not walk on his own.

My son is a toothless nine month old. He has shown signs of teething (irritability, excessive drooling) but still no teeth. Both me and my hubby were late teethers.

How can you tell if a baby has cradle cap and has anyone got any tried and tested cures for cradle cap?

the car seat at night, sometimes in the car seat during the day. Other than that, she is pretty average. Does all the other normal baby things and enjoys playing in her activity center or be in her baby swing. Anybody else ever experience a child this scared of the dark so early in age?

I realize that a baby at this age should only be getting formula or breastmilk, but she weighs 14 lbs, she was 10 lbs at birth. So she should be eating at least 26 oz of formula a day. I am lucky if she eats 18 oz. She has terrible colic, we have tried everything. From Gripe Water, to Homeopathic Colic drops and tablets, to oval. She refuses to eat formula in the afternoon and evening, about 9 hours. The doc told me to give her pedialyte during these times. She sucks it back amazingly. I have never seen her so interested in eating. So my question is, is it then okay to feed the baby diluted pear juice instead of pedialyte?
