Newborn & Baby - March 2007

We are just starting on cereal but I was wondering how/what you are feeding your baby.
How much?
How often?
What kind of foods/flavors?
Does your baby like the new foods you are introducing?
What are their favorites?
Sorry for all the questions but we are first time parents of twins and we just want the best for our children. THANKS!!

I got circumcised few months ago and I can't tell if I got a tight or loose. My frenum is still intact, but when I'm soft I can't see the scar. Instead it's just some loose skin, which doesn't go further than the glans (the glans is always exposed soft or hard). I heard tight circumcisions, you can see the scar while soft?

I wanted to be tightly done with the frenum gone. Should I go back and get a revision surgery? What kind of "style" do girls prefer?

He's going on 5 months and he is now taking the cereal fine at night, should I feed him cereal in the morning also? He's not lacking in weight, I don't want to over feed him or expand his stomach. Also is it ok to give other baby foods such as bananas or apples or should I just stick with the cereal for now..

Any suggestions on making it more enjoyable? We play with her and put toys out, but she cries and cries and cries so much that we hardly do tummy time anymore. If we stop, i am afraid of developmental delays.....

I live in kind of a rural area. The closest maternity store I know of is about 50 miles away. The thing is, I cannot travel more than 50 miles or my insurance won't cover me if I go into labor! Can I find them at regular department stores? We have a JC Penny and Sears here.

Also, when should I buy them? I'm 35 1/2 wks now, but I don't want to get them so soon that my breasts grow more and they don't fit. Thanks!

I have a 5.5 month old baby and he's just starting solids. He's been taking between 7 and 8 ozs of milk per feed up to this point. The past couple of days when having solid food with one of his meals he takes less milk, only 4 ozs. Is this normal ?

I put him to sleep by breastfeeding, this is usually the only way he'll go to sleep, how do I ignore his cries when he wakes in the night looking for the breast

My baby is almost 3 weeks old and an hour after she eats she always spits up and it breaks my heart. I've asked her doctor and I've switched formulas from Enfamil to Good Start. Then the doctor told me to switch back to Enfamil. He also said she wasn't allergic, so I don't have to switch to soy. I was a spit up baby so he said that's probably why she is. She eats 3 ounces every 3-5 hours. I've tried going back to 2 or 2.5 oz, I've tried all different bottles, mylicon drops, proping her up after she eats, etc. but nothing seems to help! She doesn't spit up when she burps or as she's eating. It always seems to be an hour after she eats. She doesn't seem to mind the spitting up, but it scares me. Does anyone know what might be wrong? Any suggestions of what kind of bottle I should use? Nice answers only please. Thank you!

Since she was about 2 months old and was able to hold her head up. I was told by a friend that by letting her stand and that by putting her in her jumperoo, we were going to cause her to become bowed legged. Is this true? Does anyone know any info about this? I will discuss this with her doctor at her next appt....

My wife is having second thoughts about breast feeding our unborn daughter because she heard that breast fed babies have darker lips than bottle fed babies. Can someone help me out with this?

I was wondering does the yogurt replace formula for that feeding or do I need to give him formula along with the yogurt.

This just started about a week ago. It never leaks during the day. Should I change brands (we use Huggies stage 3)? Is there a special "night-time" diaper I can buy that will get him through the night? It's leaking out the top of the back of the diaper. The diapers seem to fit him, but should I go up a size? Anyone else have a problem like this?

My husband works third shift (11 p.m. to 7 a.m.) and I'll be going back to working days (8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.) starting April 2. We shifted our schedules this way so we could avoid needing daycare. However, we're realizing that my husband may not get much, if any, sleep during the day and, at night, I won't be home until 5:30 - he'd only be able to count on about 4 hours of sleep before he'd have to get up and get ready for work. My parents have passed away and I have no other family on my side. My husband's dad and step-mom live locally, but they both have jobs and can't help out with daycare during the week. His mom and step-dad, and the rest of his side of the family, lives out of state.

Has anyone else been in this situation? How did you and your spouse/partner handle it? Did you end up having to use daycare after all?
