Newborn & Baby - August 2006

my baby's overweight and weighs 10.2 kg. She used to have 4 ounces every 4 hours even at night time feedings. She doesn't like drinking water, only 1 or 2 ounces a day. How do you get a baby to drink plenty of water? How many ounces and how many times a day should a regular almost 5 months old baby be eating?

my daughter loves to be around other people and she will smile at them, but once they reach out to hold her....she starts crying and wont let anyone else hold her. im a stay at home mommy so i am around her all the time and i have never let anyone else watch her so i can see why she is so attached to me.

does anyone else have a baby that does that?

I've heard that specialists are now recommending waiting even longer than 6 months to start solids. Has anyone else heard this or have any information to back this up?

My baby is 6 months, and has none of the symtoms of being ready for solid food. She is completely uninterested.

He like put him in his lap and then the 7 month old will like tilt his head backand then his father will flip him over bringing him inot the same position. I think this dangerous to his healt since he is only a infant.

My sisterinlaw gave birth to my nephew today and was 1 month early, the doctors said his lungs were not fully developed and that they were going to give him medicine and put him in a special childrens hospital, they said about 3 days he would be there. Can someone tell me what happens after 3 days? He is developing but how will they know hes ready to breathe on his own?
I was so upset tonight. Someone please ease my mind. Thank you.

I'd like the opinions and experiences of parents who've had this problem and what you found to work. I've been using hydrocortisone 1%, but it doesn't do the trick. The doctor said that usually they outgrow this by their 1st B-day (which was a week ago)... but I don't see it getting better. It doesn't seem to bother my son... I never see him really scratch at it. It is mostly on his legs and a few spots on his arms. I've also tried giving luke warm baths, not bathing as often, lotioning with Aquaphor, Eucerin, baby lotion... and still nothing. Has anyone visited a dermatologist for their infant? What was their recommendation? If your child outgrew it, how old was he/she? If one parent has the condition, is it likely the child will continue with it?

Is it just because the adults/parents buy their children things because they themselves like to look at them and don't want to look at black and white objects? Is it beacuse they don't know? I'm really sending this question out to all the parents out there, and I really am looking for an answer.
