My daughter is 14 months and when she went in for her 12 month immunizations, she got shots on her leg and arms. Well, she still has a knot still on her leg and it will not go away! I am getting worried. I keep calling the doctor and asking a nurse about this and they keep telling me it is normal but for goodness sakes, it is almost 2 months ago that she got the shots. I keep massaging it like they said to make it go away but it is not. My biggest concern is that it might cause damage to her leg. I know that might seem out-landish but you never know. Anyone have this happen before and what did you do? If a nurse is reading this, what do I do? Is this really normal?????

How long have people been leaving crib bumpers up on the crib? How long was your baby when you took them off? Thanks!

Or anyone who might know.

Iam wondering which routine vaccines given to infants include mercury, (I know the word they use starts with a T, but I cannot remember it).

Iam even more concerned about which vaccines contain live cultures.

My son is scheduled for the 5-in-1 and two other vaccines this week, Iam researching them before hand.

I dont need the "vaccines save lives" deal. I nearly died after reacting to the HIB vaccine in the 80's. Its not something Iam willing to risk with my son, so I want to learn all I can about them.

Thanks so much!

That is what some strange man came up to me and said in the grocery store! I was shopping around with my baby... and he just approached me and blurted that out... and then mumbled some crap about being a Christian and abortion is murder and god loves me (I really did tune most of it out though, as I was in a state of shock) - Is this normal? Has this happened to anyone else? Why would a strange man just think that abortion was something I was considering at any point of my pregnancy!?

I am struggling with my second son. He is very recently 12 weeks old and has done nothing but cry since approximately 5 days old. He has NOT got colic, please do not suggest this. I have tried everything with him, he has had tests on his urine, we have tried colic remedies, we have changed his milk to Wysoy (SMA) as doc thinks maybe lactose intolerant, we have even taken him to a cranial osteopath! All of which have failed miserably. I am going out of my mind I have to be honest. Can anyone help me with regards to controlled crying? I have left him to cry on several occasions to see what has happened, he will cry - or should I say scream for over 3-4 hours at a time! I obviously pick him up between these hours, I wouldnt let him cry this long, but he doesnt even settle when you pick him up anyway! I have been to see the doctor numerous times and they have found nothing that would be causing this to happen.
Any advice please?

I've been advised to use SMA Staydown as my 12 week old son is bringing a lot of his milk back up, we were using Gaviscon in Aptimil but he is also having trouble with constipation and the hospital told me to stop this and change over to the SMA milk, we are having trouble with the milk constantly blocking up the teat and have followed the instructions to the letter, at the moment its taking over an hour to feed him, has anyone else used this milk with any success

I have an 8 month old that wakes up about three times a night to breastfeed and this is the only way besides the carseat that she'll go to sleep. I hear about moms that have children that are already 2 years old with this problem and there's no way I could stand to let this problem go on for that long. I really want to wean her when she's 12 months, but with hardly any other sleep inducing options I don't know if this will be possible. We tried the Ferber Method which worked until she got sick one night and slept in our bed and from then on it wouldn't work and now she'll just stand up in her crib until I go get her to breastfeed. Please help, I'm tired of being tired.

when I was 24 weeks pregnant, I went into preterm labor, and they stopped it with magnesium sulfate, and gave me the steroid shots to benefit her lungs. they sent me home and 5 weeks later my water broke. I was put in the hospital on strict bed rest for the remainder of my pregnancy. I delivered 5 weeks later. and ever since I've been really sad, that I couldn't really experience all that pregnancy had to offer. I miss being pregnant, having the belly, going out in public to show it off, I miss the kicks, and the hiccups, and the doctor appointments. reading how my baby is developing, hearing the heartbeat, and seeing the ultrasound pictures. I miss it all. especially lately, because it's near my due date, and I have a 6 week old daughter. I love her more than anything, but I just feel like my pregnancy was cut too short. I am glad I have her, but today I should be worrying when she is going to come. and all I was ever able to worry about was how long they'd be able to hold off deliver

My 2 month old who has gained weight really well so far is showing a remarkable decrease in appetite. He was feeding 8-10 times till recently and now he feeds less than 6-8 times. Is that normal. He also seems to feed only 10-15 mins at a breast per feed. Is this normal?

My ex and I broke up in Jan '07 and he got a new g/f shortly thereafter. I am due to have his baby this Friday and at first he wanted her to come to the hospital to visit and take pictures but I told him, "No way!!" My hospital does not have a nursery so the baby will be in the room with me at all times. Now he wants her to come to my place the day that I am discharged from the hospital to see the baby. Personally, I think it is disrespectful of him to even ask considering that should only be a time for close friends and family. I am not saying she can NEVER see the baby but that day is not appropriate to me. That is not the time for meeting his new girlfriend and exposing my baby to outsiders germs. I'd appreciate any thoughts/advice.
