Newborn & Baby - February 2007

I have a three month old daughter and she spits up alot on Enfamil Lipil w/Iron.....so i tried the Enfamil Gentle Ease w/iron (for fussy and gassy babies)....she doesn't like it and refuses to eat it. What can i give her as far as formula to keep her from getting so fussy and spitting up so much?

Would it be wise to try and give a 2 month old a bed time? He usually falls asleep around 9 and then wants to eat at midnight. Would it be a good idea to put him down alone after the feeding he has around 9? I want to get him on some sort of bed routine since he has made himself a feeding routine quite easily.

3 1/2 old does not want to drink milk?
i feed my baby expressed breast milk in a bottle from the beginning since he had latching problem. He has never had formula.

Since the last 3 days he is refusing to drink his milk. The minute I bring the bottle near his mouth, he starts crying and does not it at all. Then after crying for sometime, he finally takes it after being tired and sleepy.
I am very worried as to what is happening. This is happening with every feed.
Also since yesterday, his seedy poop is little pasty with no seeds and very bad odor. what could be wrong?
Please advice.

I have heard that running and doing hard core cardio work outs somehow makes your breast milk unappealing or causes your baby to be cranky. My baby is 7 weeks and I did a hard core cardio work out yesterday and she has been extremely cranky and won't sleep for more than 20 minutes. Has this happened to anyone? Why? Any advice?

Well my brother & his wife had a baby boy on Superbowl Sunday (2/4). I went to visit the baby the day he was born but I didn't want to hold him because I don't like holding a baby who's still in the hospital for some reason. I decided t wait until this weekend to see him because I don't work. But my aunt told me that when she went to there townhome, there was a sign on the door that said, "Visitors may look at Ethan, but can't hold him" what the hell? So now my mom's upset even though she was able to hold the baby but she says they're taking it overboard. I understand them not wanting the baby to be held by strangers but family? And I'm not waiting until he's 2 months old (after he gets his shots) to hold my nephew! Any mothers ever treated their newborn like this or has anyone ever gone through this? How do I handle this? Should I just respect their wishes and forget I have a nephew for 2 months or what?

Even at the hospital my little one had problems latching-on. Instead of seeing what she was doing wrong and helping her to latch-on the lactation consultant just pushed her to the breast and after crying and struggling for 10 minutes she managed to do it. She was continuing to suck improperly home but because I had allot of milk no one noticed. When the milk started to diminish, due to lack of demand, she started losing weight and we called a lactation consultant who could not see anything wrong. Because she was struggling so much to get milk out at 8 weeks she started to refuse the breast, we tried the bottle but she had a hard time getting used to it. Now at 3.5 month she is on the bottle but eats only when she is halfway asleep. If she is awake and I try to feed her she pushed the bottle away and screams at it. Each feeding attempt is a big struggle and it takes us about 1hour to manage 4oz. We can’t go anywhere out because of it. Our ped said that she is bored when eating that’s why she eats when sleeping. I don’t think that that’s the reason, if she was bored she would eat when she is extremely hungry but the same thing happens even if she has not eaten for awhile. Is there any one who went through the same thing? That was wrong? How did you change it? Any ideas or advice?

Quick question.. I am about to lose my mind because my son keeps throwing up.. he's done this every night for the past couple of weeks.. it's like..

1. I feed him
2. He throws it up
3. I clean him up and he screams and sucks on his hand like he's hungry again..
4. I feed him again
5. He throws it up
6. REPEAT

You get the picture.. Anyways.. I have NO clue what is wrong with him. I'm a first time mother..

I've already taken him to the doctor twice.. and she's already suggested rice cereal and we've switched his formula.. but nothing seems to work.

It only happends at night.. and I don't understand that part either. Any suggestions? PLEASE?

I have tried several different diapers for night-time with my 8 month old daughter. She wakes up every morning with her pajamas wet because the diaper leaked. The most recent was Huggies Supreme Gentle Care. I've also tried Pampers Swaddlers. Does anyone use a diaper that can withstand going 9-10 hours without leaking???

Lots of internet articles recommend using Benadryl for babies and kids to sleep - but some pediatricians frown on this. Does anyone know what amount dosage is just enough to help ease the flight stress?

I drink 8-10 cups of fluids a day (mostly water) but my milk supply still seems to be dropping the last couple of days. My son is 2 weeks old, and maybe he's just growing lots and needing more milk than he used to, but I'm having a difficult time giving him all that he requires. Any suggestions?

I get so tired of the packages of diapers around my house. I have 2 kids in different sizes. Is there any home diaper dispenser available? We've tried neatly stacking them in a box but it looks tacky. We have a big house and leaving them in the nursery gets annoying as well having to journey down our very long hallway just to get a diaper or change the baby in there. We don't use a changing table, don't have one. I know they have those cute little decorative ones that hang from the wall or changing table but like I said, don't have a table and they look tacky on the wall. We have company over all the time and are tired of putting diapers away that may be laying around because it looks like clutter. Is there anything that is kind of decorative yet discrete? Id keep them in the bedroom like I said but my house is huge and its annoying taking that loooong journey to find a diaper, lol. What do you do? Any suggestions?

My 5 mth old daugther learnt to laugh back in december, now she doesn't really laugh anymore. Before she use to talk to her toys, well coo and caa to her toys, now she keeps pretty quiet. Is this normal for babies to start and then stop for a while. She is acting normal, but less coo'ing. Should I be concerned?

Ever since my daughter was born i have regreted not hypenating her last name with mine and my dad's ( I just let her have his). We have been friends for almost 3 years and had a little "accident." We will probably never get married or be anything more then exclusive friends with benies.

He is a good dad, i want to stress that point, however, his job is too demanding to be a full time parent. Right now we have a visitation schedule with him at 10% of the time, he has never gone a full week taking all of the visits. She will never live with him and he will probably never have any more custody then he does now. So I want her to have both last names and grow up that way.

She is 6 months old and we live in California, she has been baptised, does anyone know how to start the process?
