Newborn & Baby - December 2006

I am unbelievably sick of all of you self righteous people who think that formula is made for lazy or uncaring mothers. STOP assuming that people asking questions about formula want your damn input. We are parents too and large companies make formula for a reason. Would you rather me starve my child because I cannot breast feed. And for your information, it was because of two lactation speciaists that added to my inability to breast feed. Keep your opinions to yourself and stop the judgment. It is difficult enough making parenting descisions without people like you! Here, Here to those of you with the same opinion! Let me here from you!

I have recently noticed the following things on t.v. and was wondering what your opinions are on these types of things:

a women stuck her 3 week old baby girl in the microwave oven and cooked it from the inside out. the baby's mother has been arrested and charged. if she did do this she will be sentenced to death.

a young mother fed her 2 month old baby 3 oz. of vodka. she claims that the vodka was in a water bottle in the car and she did not smell it before she mixed it with the baby formula. the baby became intoxicated with a blood alcohol level around 3.0. there has been no arrests made in this case.

thanks for your opinions ! :)

My friend has NO sex drive at ALL. She's to the point where she'll to anything to have one. I told her i'd ask on here, to get a couple ideas. If it helps any, she's 18 and had a baby 7 months ago. She thinks she doesn't have a sex drive b/c she had a kid. She also said that before she had a kid and WHILE she was pregnant, her sex drive was amazing and could go 6 times a night. Now, she barely does it once a month. Is there any kind of pill she can take? Anything you can buy at a drug store? Any ideas on what to do? Thanks.

She will bew nursing but then violently move her head around. I think she just wants to suck and gets mad that milk comes out. She won't take a pacifier, she'll only suck on my pinky finger. Are there any pacifiers that resemble a pinky, if not how do i get her to take pacifier?

my daughter is five months old and already has 2 teeth and is drooling like crazy. Could it be caused by her drooling? She only has that one red bump and its kinda worrying me.

Okay...
I have noticed she ALWAYS props their bottles, then when the spit up she calls it "acid reflux", I tried explaining if she doesn't burp them they are going to puke up more then if they were burped. One is in my eyes also way over fed. Hes 4m and eats an 8oz bottle. Wearing 9m old clothing, very round. I suggested she have him seen by a nutritionist.
She also fails to change their clothes... sometimes for 2-3 days in a row. Also tonight she was quick to drop them off (20 degree weather) with out coats, hats. They were in short sleeve onesies with blankets.
How can I get her to see that they are not being taken care of properly? She says I don't know anything about having twins. But I am the mother of 3 children and have custody of all 3, while her daughter is in the custody of her father.
Any suggestions on how to help her is appreciated.

She not only drools but tends to stick her tongue out and lick her chin and upper lip. As a result, the whole area is red and irritated. Looks like little red bumps. Can I put anything on it? It not only looks bad, but I can't imagine it feels very good for her either. she's 8 months old.

My son is 3 months old and I breastfeed him. The doctor said breastfed babies do not have constipation, but he has bowel movement every 2-3 days and this bothers him. My doctor recommended the glycerin rectal supposatories, but I really don't like them and they are not supposed to be used very often.
What do you use for such a young babies?
