My 4 month old sometimes gets frustrated with the slow nipple, and at other times he's perfectly fine with it. So that leaves me very confused ..

What do you think when you see a young woman pregnant? Aged around 17-20 years old. Just curious. What if they are married? Does that change opinions?

A friend of mine said that she'd read an article that mentioned that a shot given to infants/toddlers may be a cause of Autism BUT, she couldn't remember what shot it said COULD be...

I've been having a lot of swelling problems with my feet. They swell so much that they hurt and it feels like my skin is breaking! They are literally so fat that the look fake. I can't explain how fat they are you would just have to see them. I went to see my doctor today to have my staples taken out, I had a c-section 5 days ago. I asked her about it but she didn't even look at them and said that it was normal because of all the fluids I've was given through IV. Anyway, they are swollen to my ankles and a little above. Is it normal for them to be that swollen? They are really bad. Should I take a picture and post it that way ya'll can see how swollen they are. When normally I have extremely skinny feet?

I am 19 years old and getting ready for a C-section birth in a few days. I have yet to leak any colostrum and I am worried that I won't produce enough food for my newborn. He is a very big baby who is also breech. Will undergoing a C-section at 39 weeks lessen my chance of being a successful breast-feeder?

I am using enfamil A.R. lipil for my twins, both have acid reflux. The formula has done wonders for them, it has cereal in the formula that is heavier in their stomach to reduce the amount they spit up. But I'm having a hard time finding a nipple that will allow for this thicker formula. I tried poking the holes and it was too much. But the formula keeps clogging the regular hole and I have to keep cleaning it out every 30 seconds. It is VERY frustrating. Any suggestions? I have tried VentAir, Playtex amd Avent stages 1 and 2 for all 3.

I don't make much $ & I wanna to know if any of you have any really good suggestions for baby stuff. I'm looking for stuff that I could buy in Wal Mart or Costco. I know that I could get a convertible crib @ Wal Mart for $100 & even a car seat there too. I could also get a stroller/car seat combo for $150. It's either @ Wal Mart or Costco. I want to buy stuff that converts & grows w/ the baby. Not sure if I'll need a stroller tho... So if I don't need it, maybe I'd just stick w/ a cheap one. I'm mainly looking for stuff that I'd need when the baby's a newborn but anything else is appreciated too. This is my first baby so I don't know what I'll need to buy. I chose not to find out what I'm having. I'm due Sept 26th. Thanx ! :)

My son is 7 weeks old and has reflux issues and formula issues. Can you tell me how the average 7 week old behaves. He sleeps 3-4 hours a night and takes a ton of naps during the day. Do they normally still sleep a lot? How many ounces should he be taking a time. He is about 10.8 lbs. He could eat every 2 hours and take about 3-4 ounces each time.

My son is 8 months old and he's talkin, has his teeth in, and trying to walk but he's not really crawling. I know this is normal but I want to know if I'm the only one going through this or if anybody else have?

So I've only been nursing for 5 days and so far everything is going well. Sometimes by baby only "empties" one breast and doesn't want the other one even when I try and offer it to him. Other times he takes it and "empties" it as well. Anyway I want to know that when he only takes one side, should I pump the other side or just offer that one first at the next feeding. What I've been doing is pumping it if he doesn't want it but should I be? The reason I pump it is because of engorgement and well I was afraid that if I didn't get rid of it from one side it can mess up my milk production from that one side. Sorry I'm just new at the breastfeeding thing. I wasn't able to breastfeed my daughter so this is new to me!!!

My friend is due to have her first baby in about a month. I would like to take her dinner one of the nights after she gets out of the hospital. The problem is, I don't know what to make! She won't tell me anything she specifically wants. She isn't that much of a cook herself, so I know she would appreciate anything. The only things I can think of are lasagne and spaghetti. Never had a baby myself, so I don't know if some foods are off limits for a while after childbirth? What is a good meal that somebody brought you or one that you have made for somebody else? Thanks in advance for any ideas!

I would like to shower with my 7-month-old son, I know my sister-in-law did this with her babies. I did it once before, but my hubby was right outside the shower. I would like to be able to do this when he might not be available.
Does anyone do this, and if so, do you have any tips, safety or otherwise? He is so slippery when he is wet and soapy, does anyone have any tried-and-true techniques on showering with their baby?
Thanks!

I should know this on my own but I don't. I am in love, with a guy now for 8 months but have known him since I was 15. That's 15 years. We are it, the final show, this is my life long companion. The kicker? I'm a cervical cancer survivor. I have been given a "time limit" to have kids. At 30, I'm running out. We decided to start trying in August and ever since, my body and mind have been uprooted in a flood of emotions, I know that's normal, or is it? Moms..help, how did you know it was right?
