My son seems to cry and get bored whenever we aren't entertaining him. He's only 8.5 mths old. He isn't crawling or cruising yet. He can roll over, sit, get up and rock on all fours, slide backwards on his belly, but he doesn't want to be on the floor for more than 5 min unless we are playing with him. He has tons of toys but he seems to be bored of them. Is it normal for the parents to spend all day entertaining the baby?

And she isn't crying, but is just AWAKE, standing up in her crib, basically looking for us. We don't even know she is awake until she makes a couple sounds (fusses) and we go in there and she is just standing up in her crib. She doesn't really act scared, but just wide awake. We pick her up...within seconds she is back to sleep...and then it happens again and again. We DO wait it out sometimes to see what happens and she usually ends up conking her head on the railing or something and then crying. What happened to our BEAUTIFUL sleeper? She IS trying to walk and is cutting back molars....not even sure that is what it is....just desperate for our perfect sleeper again. How can she self-soothe if she is WIDE AWAKE??!

BUT last night whilst at home her pattern changed and she not drinking what she should (sometimes more, sometimes less) and today she screaming for a bottle but when offered she holds in her mouth and bites the teet ,not suck, now she has tired herself out and gone to sleep, missing another feed. Midwife is due out today but i dont want her to think i cant cope. PLEASE PLEASE HELP as i dont want her back on the tube. how can i get her to suck and take reg feeds without making herself too tired to then take it?. x

OK...I know this sounds really weird...my twin sister had a baby 3 weeks ago. Last weekend, I spent the whole time helping her take care of the baby and a lot of the time it was just me and the baby while she tried to get some sleep. Now all of a sudden...my nipples are sore and my breasts a little bit, too. Not the same feeling as PMS-- usually with that my breasts just feel really heavy and sore. This is a little different. Is it possible that I am experiencing some kind of maternal / hormonal instinct? Sort of like "sympathy pains"? Has anyone ever experienced this?

My son is 3 months, 2 weeks old and is drinking 6 - 8 ounces a day every 3 hours. Is this normal? He really has only taken 8 ounces at night right before bed. He screams his head off after 6 ounces so I tried to see if he still wanted more to drink and he did. He is a great sleeper. Goes down around 7PM and wakes up 4 or 5am to drink and back to bed till 7:30AM.

I have to change hime constantly. he is 8 weeks old and has been like that since I brought him home. He goes thru 6-8 outfits/day because of drenched diapers, not because they leak.
