He likes to eat every 2 hours about 3 ounces at a time. Someone from my job says he should only be eating every 3 hours 4 ounces at a time.

I took 2 pregnancy tests, both of them positive. I'm going to the doctor this week. My boyfriend & I have been together for less than a year and I am not sure I want to be with him for the rest of my life, but now that I'm pregnant I don't want my baby to see separate parents, so we'll have to work everything out...I was thinking of abortion, but I'm so scared of doing it just because it's not in me doing something like that...but I'm really scared of having the baby. I'm only 21 and I haven't finished college yet...any advice? any positive thoughts?...thanks!

My son is only three months old and he has been drooling like crazy for a few weeks now. He is always chewing on his hands and everything he can grab goes in his mouth. I put my finger in his mouth and he was biting me. On his top gums, it looks like he has two teeth coming in. His gums are white and you can see the shape of the teeth. He hasnt been sleeping real good thepast few days and he normally sleeps for at least seven hours straight. Tonight, he needs to binky to sleep. Every time it falls out, he wakes up crying. What can I do for him to help him and make him more comfortable?

I 'm using some plastic bottles to contain milk for my babies, every time I use I boil them, but I wonder it is still OK if I continue to re-use them like this after 6 months?

my son who is 5 months old spits up alot after almost every feeding and cries constantly all day unless being held (sometimes doesn't work), walked around, swung, looking at moving objects & etc... what do you think this could be? my Dr. 1st diagnosed him with baby G.E.R.D. & then said maybe he was colic. so i tried giving him the perscription of zantac he took it pretty well but still spits up and cries all the time. If theres any suggestions out there plz... help thanx!

I have a three month old and I really do not want 2 put her in daycare until she can talk, but we are starting 2 struggle a little bit and I may need to work before I planned. Am I wrong for considering putting my baby in daycare so young? I do not have any family to watch her.

I stopped breastfeeding my 7 week old son about 3 weeks ago. I had a really hard breastfeeding him, he didn't latch on easily. I did pump in the mean time. I had a defective pump and all it did was suction. I went atleast 10 days without any milk out-put. I went to a lactation consultant and got things going right. Since I had such a short time with my milk, I didnt get a good supply. Now, going through all that hell, my nipples have very low feeling...Has anyone experienced this?

I keep meaning to ask my useless Pediatrician about these clear crystal looking things in my daughter's diaper. I see them a lot and usually just with a wet diaper (no poo). They are really tiny, kind of like clear sand. Has anyone seen this and/or know what it is?

my baby girl is 10 months. and i've been giving her half a cup of gerber baby oatmeal and having her finish it off with five ounces of formula milk. i give her this about five times a day. i always thought this was enough.

my sister came over yesterday with her 6 month old son.. she's been giving him 1 cup of gerber baby cereal and having him finish it off with 8 ounces of formula milk.. she gives this to him about 6 to 7 times a day.

am i underfeeding my daughter or is she overfeeding her son??

If you had a new born baby, and were forced to name it after a fruit or vegie, what would you name it? Don't repeat what others have said!

I want to put my baby (now 6 weeks ) in for the same 1 day when hes about 8 weeks. i dont think im being selfish wanting 1 day a weeks without the kids... but i have never nursed successfully before and this will mean i need to express some milk to get him through the day. any advice on how toaccomplish this is greatly welcome. how much milk do i need to express?
do i express manually because its only 1 day a week, or do i invest in a pump.
thankx in advance.

My husband and I did study this while I was pregnant, but veered off between him being gone (marines) and me getting pregnant again right away when he came back. I know signs, but what are the basics I should start with? I can't get to the library for a little while so I thought I'd go out on a limb and see what you've done.
(As far as the sleeping especially, is it nap, tired or sleep?) Thanks guys.
:)

My son will be 2 months on August 8th and my grandmother tells me that if i continue to hold him allday that he will become more spoiled. He does cry when he is put down and yes as soon as me or my husband picks him up he stops. She also says that when i put him in daycare next month that its going to be hard because he is going to be used to someone holding him.
