My Grandson is 8 months old and we want to put him on a schedule that will give him enough sleep, food, playtime. he usually wakes up about 7:30 am and is ready to sleep at by 9:00pm.
How many naps should he have and how late should his last nap be. He is also a restless sleeper and has to have someone next to him (bad habit I know). My daughter doesnt get much sleep because he wakes up fequently but falls back to sleep. I'm a out of practice grandma, please help.

My 5 week old baby has had a slightly/moderately stuffy nose for 2 days now. He also coughs a couple of times a day. These symptoms have been paired with a temperature of 99-100.2 (rectal temp.). I bought saline drops and have been using them and the aspirator to clear his nasal passages. I use a luke-warm cloth on his forehead to sort of "take the steam off" and it has been working to lower his fever. He just saw the doctor 2 days ago and she said not to worry about a fever until it reaches 102. Is there anything else I can do to make him feel better.

My daughter is 7 months old and just met her father for the first time last month for one hour (he denied he was the father until a paternity test proved what I knew.) He does not have any court-ordered visitation - but I am willing to give him reasonable time with her. He does not seem to care that he is a stranger and is demanding that he take her all day long this weekend.

She has only seen him one time and she cried when he would hold her. My daughter is also breast-fed. She has never used a bottle, nor has she been away from me for more than a couple hours. I do not think she would do well away form me for an entire day.

I am still offering for him to spend time with her - but I want to be present until I know she knows him and will not feel abandoned, and that he is capable of caring for her. I understand the importance of her having a relationship with her father, but I do not want to leave her with a stranger!

Can I get in trouble for this?

Middle name has to be Dean

Ok Girl Names
First and Middle name combo suggestions please. Thanks
Same deal common ground.

Thanks for any help you can and will give...

For the boy James Dean and Jimmy Dean is out... I thought they were cute but they didn't seem to think that it was. No offense to those names I just thought they sounded good with each other as well as having a couple famous people in the name too. Ok again thanks for any help

if so then the whole pro-life is gonna have to change. cuz if a 4 month old african baby can survive 4 months premature birth. then surely people have to rethink when a little fetus is considered alive or not. another question at what point does the baby have a soul. 9 months right?

I was wondering if anyone else noticed how thirsty they get. I am nursing and all I seem to want to do is drink. and I especially crave dr pepper even though I know that isn't the best thing to drink right now.

I used to suck my tumb and I had to get MAJOR work done on my teeth including braces when I was in high school. I wonder if the same will happen to my son if I let him suck his thumb, but I also don't know if it's just a phase......
