My youngest son, has all of his top teeth, including molars. he only has 4 on the bottom, he's 16 months old. Today he's been cranky, tired, even with his nap, and has red rosy cheeks, and loose stools, he doesnt have diareah, he's not sick, do you think he may be teething? and if so, why do these symptoms happen when the child is teething, I've heard some people say, that those are not signs of teething, but my older son always got diareah when he was teething.. What's your opinion?

I plan on having a baby at the end of April and I would like to stay at home w/ my baby.However, the father's income alone will not be enough to support us. I would like to find reliable work at home that brings in good enough income. Any ideas? (I prefer responses from real-life work at home mothers)
Thanks!

My 11 month old son recently has had watery (really loose) stools for the past 2 days. I know that it is diarrhea, but I don't know how to treat it. Should I feed him the same? If so, do I need to stay away from solid foods and just give him milk? What about Pedialyte? Should I give this to him. This is my first baby, and he has never had diarrhea before, so I am new to this. Please help me if you can.

I was asked by our church to pump and bring bottles to church and we will never go back. That is the last straw.
Women in public tell me to stop descreetly feeding my child under a cover! They either worry that their disloyal men will break their necks trying to sneak a peek, worry that their uneducated kids will ask them what I'm doing, worry that they themselves did something wrong by not breastfeeding and feel guilty, or worry that, eventhough they have clevage hanging out and have painted themselves and their tiny, cheer-leading outfit clad, daughters up like two dollar prostitutes, I might send "the message" that I have breasts. Lol Hilarious. They go to the beach in their bra and panties, but I'm offensive draped in a tent?
Los Vegas tells women not to breastfeed ??? Victoria's Secret tells women not to breastfeed while they display mannequins in thongs and push-up bras?
I'm motivated now. Where do I protest?

My husband and I have a little terrier. I'm concerned how she is going to act around our first baby. She's a really good dog but I'm afraid she is going to be jealous and do something to the baby. She is use to being the only one in our home. What can I do now to train her for the new baby, due in August?

All of a sudden she does not want to eat her oatmeal anymore. Nor does she want to eat her baby fruit. She is just refuses to eat any baby food out of a jar. I breast feed her only. I would like to know any foods that I can give her. Please help.

I already went to their site and they're sending the $1 off, but I need to get more somehow since it's so expensive.

my 3-month old dd will only nap for 30 minutes at a time. she'll wake up screaming so loud she almost throws up. i try to wiat it out and confort her, but beleive me, she is wide awake and doesn't want to nap longer. she'll nap 3 times a day for 30 minutes and is having problems staying asleep at night too (she used to sleep 9 hours straight). she is super fussy during the day now, and she used to never fuss. i guessing that part of it is that she's exhaused. i feel so bad for her and don't know what to do. has anyone else had this problem and what did you do to fix it?

Was it difficult taking care of the first childand the second during the first month after you delivered?

It was very expensive. I hate to just throw it out or recycle it. I would like to sell it but not sure that I can. The manufacturer says it's not sanitary but the hoses and stuff can be replaced can't they?

Is Cheerios really safe for my 8 month old. She has to bottom teeth and one coming in up top. But i am scared to give them to her thinking she may choke. Is there anyone that has any reassurance. Because it sure would be alot cheaper than those cans of veggi or fruit puffs. She does really good with food, but are cheerios dissolvable fast enough?

I have twin daughters that are 3 mths old?( Yes, I know they are individuals and no I dont refer to them as the twins at home.) Anyway, they sleep together in a bassinet. If they arent together by 8 pm Jaden will fuss and cry until you put Jessie in with her and vice versa. Right now its easier for me and it gives them comfort. Should I continue letting them do this? Can their be any health risks involved in letting them stay together? Like when they are old enough to grab and pull? Id like to keep letting them as long as they are happy.

The only thing my dr. does is weigh the baby, measure the length and head and listen to her lungs and heart.
