Newborn & Baby - February 2007

i figured id ask some of the newborn moms this question

Im not sure if my water broke, i thought in order for it to break you had to be having contractions and such, but i had gotten really thirsty all of the sudden, so i got up to get water, and felt some leaking, so instead of getting water i went to the bathroom, the discharge was really watery and a milky/ light tan color, but nothing more, and when i cleaned up a bit, and sat back down, it seemed like more came out, so i got back up and checked, and it had, but it doesnt smell like urine, and its just too watery for comfort...but i dont feel any contractions, and just a slight dribble...and some pressure, like the baby is rolling around

Every once in a while, I notice my 3 1/2 month old baby's soft spot on top of her head is pulsing - I can see the skin pulsing up and down as her heart beats. It's not always there, but when it is, it's pretty obvious and makes me a little worried. Is this normal?

Me and bub have been having breastfeeding problems for the last three months. He is 3 months old on the 23rd and has been eating the bottle (breast milk) for about 3-4 weeks pretty much exclusively due to my pain, his poor weight gain because of it, etc.

I have ALMOST fixed all the problems, and I am wondering Is there any way to get a baby back to the breast after bottle feeding?? IT's like he's forgotten how, he gets mad when the boobie is in his mouth and the milk isn't gushing out like the bottle. Will he remember?? Will he figure it out again?? He was a champion nurser in the beginning, but the pain I had made me drop my supply... So We've been through the runaround. I just want to know If I'll be able to ever exclusively breastfeed now, after all this crap?? :( It makes me sad to think I can't do it, after all we've been through!@!! Engorgement, cracked, bleeding nipples, blisters, compression lines, inverted nipples, thrush, ductal yeast, even Raynaud's.......

My daughter can roll from her tummy to back and back to tummy. I was ok when she could just do tummy to back but now that she can go from back to tummy I am really worried. I woke up this morning and found her sleeping on her tummy. My concern is SIDS. I am pretty much stuck here right? I can't really control what she does while we are both asleep but I can't help but worry. Some say that if she can roll over she can roll herself back so I should not really worry. What do you think?

How come they call medicine for 2 to 6 yrs of age infants. I think any child over 2 is a toddler to me infant is under 1 yrs of age. Just wonder if anybody else feels the same way.

I asked this a couple days ago, so if you already answered thank you, I'm looking for more answers because I didn't get that many the first time.

My infant is just growing out of all of her 0-3 month clothes, and we know we're not having any more kids so I'm going to get rid of them. I know someone (NOT a close friend) who is willing to buy them all, but I don't really know how much to charge. They're pretty much all Carter's. I was at the mall today and they're all still being sold in stores. There aren't any stains on anything. Do you think 50% of new is fair to charge for them? If not, what do you think they might be worth?

My son's birthday is on March 2nd. I know that is also Dr. Seuss's birthday so I was thinking about doing that theme. However, he's only going to be one and I don't think he's going to remember it. There will be children there from ages 2 months to 10. Any idea for what they can do? It is cold here and we have tons of snow so there aren't many activities for them to do. Any tips or advice would be very helpful. Thanks everyone!
