My brother and his wife started feeding baby fod to their infant at 3 months, and she seems to have some stomach/intestional issues afterwards. I think that maybe it's a litlle too early but they seem to think it's fine and now im pregnant with my first chiuld and wondering if this is okay and maybe im over reacting? ( i havent confronted them about it)

I have started seating my daughter on a potty when she was about 6 months old (that's about 2 months ago). Since then, we have had no soiled diapers. The potty helps her go, since she is a little prone to constipation. It's fairly easy to tell when she needs to poop, however peeing is a little more difficult. If she needs to go, and I put her on the potty, she'll use it right away. If she doesn't go, I've noticed that it's probably that she doesn't need to (no wet diaper even 40 minutes later).
This question is for people who have used this method of training: what kind of signals do your babies give when they need to pee? Is there any reward I could use to encourage her to signal me? There are several times in the day when she usually goes (after naps, eating), but is there some way I could tell when she needs it?
Thanks a lot!

I gave birth 11 days ago and now it smells like something crawled up inside me and died. Is this normal? I am keeping my stitches clean (though I think they are gone anyway) and I shower daily. But it's something INSIDE that smells. And I'm still bleeding....and the pads smell the same way. Should I go to the doctor?

My 6-month old takes 2 naps, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I am trying to get her onto a regular schedule but her naps are often different lengths every day. Yesterday her morning nap was 1.5 hrs and afternoon was only half hour. Today both morning and afternoon were only half hour long. Some days she takes a 2 hr nap either morning or afternoon or both. It really throws off the bedtime schedule and I never know what to expect so it's hard to plan my day.

My question is should I wake her up if she starts to take a long nap so that I can make the schedule work or should I just let her sleep as long as she likes and be more flexible with her bedtime? If you think I should wake her, how long should the time limit be - 1 hr, 1.5 hrs, 2 hrs? What is the best way to wake a sleeping baby so that she doesn't get upset?

3 month old daughter is very gassy, more than usual. the gas is also very strong smelling which is unusual for her too. i thought it was fruit that i started to eat like 2 weeks ago so i stopped promptly but this is still going on. i am also pretty gassy but i am not eating anything out of the ordinary or that i havent eaten before. can something all of a sudden start irritating her tummy? can i use a clean out and still feed her? like a senna cleanser? will that hurt her?

me and my partner run a cafe and he wants me to let a girl in the village babysit while i help out on bank holiday monday. I would express milk for my baby, my partner thinks im being stuped. am I being paranoid or do you think its worth giving her a chance? apparently she has looked after a 3yr old before.

My baby is 8 weeks old tomorrow. He was very regular, had 4-6 bm per day. After a few weeks, I'd say once he was about 5 weeks old, he started having just 2 bm a day. Then for about 2 or 3 days he had just 1 explosion per day. Now he hasn't had a bm for 3 days. What could be wrong? He is breastfed only, no formula. We have a doctor appointment on Friday, and my husband is 100% against enemas.

I exclusively breastfeed right now. I plan to wean my baby at 1 year because when i go back to work ill be working with dangerous cytotoxic drugs and radiation. I was wondering if it would be ok to start her on formula at one year of age? Would there be any benefits vs giving cows milk?

If you were able to breast feed and not use a bottle for awhile, please tell me about your experience. I am not working right now (due to loss of job recently) and am not planning on working until it is needed. I just dont know how inconveinent it will be to solely breast feed! Any advice would be great.

So I have been breastfeeding for 5 weeks.It was going so good and I was really encouraged.

Now all of a sudden, on my right nipple there is a little crack and looks like it is bleeding....it is extrememly painful to nurse on that side so I pump, and even that is painful but not so much.

I am wondering if it is normal to have it be going good and then take a step back like this?

And would it be terrible if I just pumped this side while I heal?

Thanks for your help.

My son was thought to have a mild lactose intolerance when he was about a week old when he was having trouble digesting breast milk, and formula milk. We put him on soya and he was fine for a while, then we tried him back on normal formula and he has seemed ok. Now he has just turned one and we put him on cows milk. He seemed to have trouble digesting and was very fussy. He had never slept through the night and he seemed to get even worse with this cows milk. We put him on goats milk about 2 weeks ago, and he is like a different baby, he sleeps through, he's so content its amazing. But he seems fine with ordinary cheese, butter and yogurt etc. Could he still have a lactose intolerance? I thought this would mean he struggled with all dairy, but since being on goats he is the best he has ever been, and is so peaceful all the time, i cant work it out!!
