I just don't get why when parents take there child to the doctor they assume that the doctor can do anything he/she would like to with out realizing that only the parents have say over there own child? Recently my friend took her child to the doctor because she had a UTI and she allowed them to catherterize her daughter because she thought "I didn't want to but the doctor said I couldn't say no," that really angers me because you should never let anyone do anything to your kids you do't want them, so in hind sight this really isn't a question just a plea to parents out there to stand up for your kids at the Doc's office because if you don't who will? (I have an 8 month old daughter btw)

At around 6 weeks I noticed my baby couldn't turn her head one way. At first it was thought to be Toritcallus, but later that has been ruled out. Over the months her head tilt will switch sides. While she is tilting to the Left, she can not tilt her head to the right and vice verca. She will tilt one way for about a week and then switch the other way. She has had x-rays, eyes checked and even been to a Torticallus clinic in Childrens hospital. They have ruled out Torticallus. My pediatrician basically said to me that he has ruled out anything serious, he doesn't know what it is but he's not concerned. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this or know what it is? Thanks

Due to the constant stream of visitors in the hospital, there was no chance for me to let my baby suckle, thus there was no milk flow at all. When I brought her home the next day, my anxious mother persuaded me to supplement my baby with infant formula for fear that she's not getting any milk from me. Now that my milk supply is on going, my baby prefers the bottle and will still cry for the bottle even though she has been on the breast for 20mins. I want to breastfeed totally...how do I achieve this? Help please...

DH does help with diapers, but is reluctant to deal with poopy ones. Should I complain or accept it? DD is nearly 2 and can dump quite a bit at once (sorry if t.m.i.).

My 5 month old daughter has all the symptoms of an ear infection. I'll be calling the doctor in the morning to try and get an appointment, but chances are that I won't be able to get one until Tuesday morning. Is there anything that I can do to comfort her and make her feel better besides using tylenol, until I bring her to her pediatrician? I'm a first-time mom, so any advice would be helpful...thanks in advance.

I have noticed people go espcially ga-ga over blue eyed babies (or green etc) over dark brown eyes. What's the big deal. I have a baby who has blue grey eyes and people make more big deal than friends who have babies with brown eyes. Has anyone else noticed this? I feel bad when people make a big deal over my babies eyes but ignore my friends black or brown eyed kids (when making compliments on their eyes or features etc)

Did your waters break or did you start to contract first. If you contracted did the hospital have to break the waters and how long did it take for your contractions to get to 5 mins apart (when i was told you should go to the hospital)?

Also - did you swell just prior to given birth - I am 37 weeks and in the last day or so feel that i am retaining water and get cramps in my legs a lot. Prior to now i have had neither of these things?

I am traveling abroad with infant. Planning to take as much frozen breastmilk as possible. How do I keep it frozen for 8hrs give or take?

I figured I could buy several soft-sided coolers and use dry ice to keep breastmilk frozen. Then I can easily put the coolers in my bags.

Questions are;

- Will breastmilk be safe? will it stay completely frozen?
- Do x-rays or scans bags go thru affect the milk?
- Is it safe to store milk with dry ice and close the coolers tightly?
- Any suggestions?

Thx!

My 2mth old has silent reflux that is like heartburn in adults. This is constantly waking him. I feel that this is constantly waking him while he sleeps as he is only sleeping for 30min intervals & wakes screaming like he is being murdered?

I have been to the doctors & child clinic & they have suggested I wrap him & let him cry no more than 15mins?
I have tried this for over a week now & it is not working. It takes me an hour to eventually settle him with cuddles?

Please Help

I heard somewhere that you are suppose to point a boy's penis downward when changing his diaper so that urine doesn't shoot out. The nurses at the hospital never mentioned this to me. It makes sense I suppose, but at my son's age it's a bit small to point in any direction. It's just like a stub and it really can't go in any direction. Are any moms able to point it downwards or does anyone do that?

What did your baby weigh at 3 months? I am only curious and am not really into percentiles or comparisons. I was just wondering because I have a 3 month old son and we just got back from the ER where they weighed him and the nurse said "what are you feeding this kid?" He weighed 20lbs 15.6oz. He doesn't look overweight and is mega active so I know he's fine but I was wondering how alone I was in the big baby department.
