and they sent me a coupon for a free pack of diapers. Do you think it would be wrong of me to do this every couple of months to get free diapers? The diapers have leaked before so I'm really not lying about it.

She has been on baby food since she was 5 months, and now cries when she sees it coming her way. I don't want to stop giving her baby food because I think her stomach is not ready for all table foods all the time yet? Is this just a phase?

Hi, I'm the very proud father of a very happy little boy...i say little, he's 25 weeks old and he's 27lb13oz and is 30 inches long. The thing is, the Doctor has made an appointment with the hospital to check him over. He seems fine to me but i'm getting a wee bit worried now. Can anyone help with any comments as to what they may be looking for? Please be frank...i could be nothing after all.

Nothing too new fangled, from a soap opera or made up, prefer traditional, classy names. Cheers.

My baby actually bites for many reasons. over stimulated, excited, frusterated, etc. and sometimes he bites and yankes, which makes cuts in the lower nipple from his two teeth. Usually when it takes me a bit to get to him to feed him, (like driving in the car). He thinks I'm funny when I'm stern. I tried to flip his cheek, but that was too much for his feelings. Right now I try to squeeze his cheeks together to seperate his jaw, which opens it fine, but too late for my poor nipple. I may try nipple sheilds for inverted nipples, but haven't gotten them yet. he doesn't like bottles, although I do have success with that sometimes.(pumped milk) If anyone has any more advice that would be awesome! I really want to breastfeed till he's at least a year old. I'd also like advice as to what to do after I have scabs on my nipple, it hurts like crazy to feed him with it, so I've been pumping and trying to get him to take it from his bottle, but he hates it.
Thanks for your time

me and my childs father have been dating for 5 1/2 yr.We wanted a baby together and we had one she's 2 months old.Well he treated me bad during my pregancy and a little afterwards.Well he says sorry and has been apologizing for a while now.I always thought it was a bunch of bullsh*t!Well we had a nasty arguement last weekend and i mean bad.I told him to go away and never come back.Well he calls this morning and says sorry about everything,the way he treated me and all and he says that he still loves me and has feeling for me.He admits he was wrong and wants us to be cool.He says before we get married he wants to be finacially stable and get all his childish ways out.He says the only reason we arent married b/c he's not ready and he doesnt want to be married like that.I can tell he's sorry and it seems like he's changing he hasnt done any wrong in the last month or so.I never thought he still felt that way about me he seemed that he'd moved on.Ive started casually dating what do I do??

So I've heard that you have to wait until your baby is a year old before you can cut their hair for the first time. Could someone explain why; and how old was your baby before their first hair cut? Thanks

She is 3 weeks old now, and she goes 3-3.5 hours, this includes feeding time and diaper changing, without sleeping. She has these long stretches of waking up twice a day. She will fall asleep for 10 mins, but then get up again. So within a given day, she will be awake for 6.5-8 hours a day. Is this normal for a 3 week year old?

I have a 4 month old baby girl. She was sleepig through the night at about 1 1/2 - 2 months. Now all the sudden this past week she has been waking in the middle of the night. I have tried to give her cereal before bed. I am not sure what else to do. Family, friends, and day care are all telling me to let her cry! I don't know if I can do that! Any suggestions?
