Newborn & Baby - August 2007

My baby is 3 months old and he's eating 6oz. every 2 hours would this be to much? His last feed is at 11:30pm, he wakes up at 3:30am and 6:30am to eat. After that it every 2 hours. On Saturday he weighted 11.8 then on Monday just 2 days later he weighted 12.3 i afraid if keeps going at this rate he'll be a little porker. I need some advice and info about this....

When people ask how much cereal to put in a babies bottle or anything about putting cereal in a babies bottle even if they dont ask is it ok to put cereal in a bottle. People always start this whole big thing by saying they say its not good for a baby. Did they ever ask if it is ok to do it no they asked a different question. I feel like it isnt there child so why do they care what someone else is wanting to do to there child when the doctor said it was ok to do. It makes me so mad. Same goes for breastfeeding everybody knows its best to breasstfeed but not all women choose to do that and when they find out that you dont breastfeed they are all over you criticizing you. Why???

My almost 10 month old use to poop what we called "colorful rocks." They were almost the size and consistancy of an adult poop and was either green or yellow tinted depending on what he ate. Now, instantly, his poop is a very runny yellow and smells to high heaven!!! The only change we've made in his diet is adding some Gerber 3rd foods that are a lil chunkier. Any thoughts on why this is happening? The family was sick for a day (24 hour flu thing) but it's been a while now, and he still poops Dijonaise!

I had a terrible time BFing my first 2 children, had to go to bottles eventually. I simply do not produce enough milk, and have tried all suggestions from both my Doctor and the lactation specialist. To skip the overwhelming disappointment of HAVING to use bottles and not solely breast feed, I plan to use both from birth with my next one. How is the best way to do this to successfully? I think I want to go 50/50 or 75 bottle/25 breast.

I still breastfeeding but not as much because my son is nine months old and is eating soilds ( about six times in 24 hours). I still have gotten my period back. But in the last two months I'll have cramping now and then. I don't know what is going on. What could this mean? (I'm active but use codoms 80% of the time.)

I am still breastfeeding and I just got my period, then I just noticed my daughter has white discharge and slight blood in her diaper. I know it is normal at birth for this to happen because of my hormones, but is it still normal at eight months old? I did just get my period so I know my hormones are out of whack.

Okay my son has ADHD and gets diapers from somewhere . I think he buys them himself! He says that he just goes to bathroom and then he's done. But i think he likes to . So i'm buying him diapers and making him wear them. he doesn't go to the bathroom in them when i'm around because i think he doesn't want me to know he likes them but a soon as i walk out the door he starts going in them. and when i come home he's clean because he puts a new one on. i know because when he was at friends house i went in his room ond found a diaper filled with pee and one filled with poop. and then i checked his room and again and the one with poop was gone so he was wearing it. I'm having him go see a pschologist. but Does god dislike him for doing that? is he sinning? and i'm being bad by letting him wear them Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please

I had normal vaginal birth four months ago, I bled for six weeks then stopped for a week, I then got my period one week bleeding ,stopped for one week, then started bleeding again very heavily. I am still bleeding with clots and my baby has just turned four months, I feel rundown and have cramping in my back and sides, is this normal? I would prefer not to go to doctor if this is normal for some women, my vagina also seems to be poking out (if this is an accurate description, same as it was when I was heavily pregnant.) I am a little concerned as in two weeks I leave for Thailand for a two week holiday and obviously want to be well.

for the past month his bowel movements have been every 5 days or so and sometimes hard to pass ( constipated ), He is also bottle fed i'm going to take him to the doctors but does anyone know how often it should be (he used to be every 2 days) and what could be causing this now since he has been on this formula since he was 5 days old. He also gets eczema.

My daughter has been walking on her tipy toes, since she was 9 mo. She will be 1 on the 14th of Aug...and she still walks like that. and I mean , on her TIPY toes, like ballerina style..and now on both of her pinky toes, there like splits/cutsm there really deep and look painfull..Even if I put shoes on her, she still walks on her toes, and if the shoes wont let her, then she wont walk...I've talked to the doctor and he says you shouldnt worry about it unless she's still walking like that by the age of 2...but I worry cause the little cuts are deep..I have medicine for them but they wont go away, they just keep spliting..what do I do?

She seems to be having too many! She eats Wellness Puppy Super5Mix according to directions on the product package. She is fed twice a day, early morning and late afternoon. (No other food) I take her in the backyard often to potty. She has bowel movements frequently during the day.
I'm not sure whether the problem is that I am taking her outside too frequently or whether this is not a good food for her?
How often should a five-month-old puppy need to eliminate?

Another concern is that she has always been able to hold her bladder a very long time! (She has water available at all times.)
