So, once she´s fed and clean and held in my arms for a while, I put her to bed and she begins to weep and then to cry for hours...

My son will be 1 year in two weeks, I feel so embarrassed as he does not want to eat food, he takes two spoons only, but will eat all of his desert, but at times, none of his desert. He will drink his milk, but only has three bottles a day. I just don't know what to do. I have tried all types of food.

Alright my daughter was born at 35 weeks she was 4 pounds 10 ounces and within a week she has grown too 5 pounds 4 ounces so shes growing ok. She didn’t half to go the NIC unit at birth or anything else like that she did fine with all test and her breathing. Now here is the part thats making me nuts “not like im not already going that way with a newborn baby at home and me being a first time mom” Her doc said we need to get RSV shots because I work at a daycare and shes going into a daycare just not the same one because my work doesn’t have an Infant room. We have been waiting on the insurance to clear the shots and the doctors office said they gave them the paper work already so how long can it take to be approved? We aren’t taking her out for thanksgiving to neither mine or my husbands family things but we want to at Christmas but if she doesn’t have the shots by then, then im not sure. An does anyone know how long it takes “how many shots” before it starts to work?

My daughter is 8 months old she started to try and crawl at 61/2 months and had it down at 7 months, so the last month has been her learning how to crawl fast and where in the house she can go. When she 1st started crawling she didnt want to stand up no matter what. NOW she is pulling herself up on everything, the cot, the tv unit, the lounge, the tables, chairs the fridge anything her hands touch she pulls herself up on even baskets. Sometime she can sit herself back down sometimes i have to help her, but i dont know if i should stop her from pulling up all the time, im scared she will hurt herself if she falls. So do i let her go or stop her?? Also how long do they usually start walking after pulling themselves up?? From sitting unattended WITHOUT ever falling over it was only 2 weeks before she started crawling and only 2 more weeks before she was doing it right, so im scared in 2 weeks she will walk LOL.

A few questions on baby showers. I read some stuff on them, and a lot of it was news to me! Are these baby shower 'rules' still applicable today?
1. Someone other than the mother-to-be throws the shower
2. A shower is held for the mother-to-be's first-born child only (as a party to welcome her into motherhood)
3. Only women attend the shower

Do people generally follow this etiquette? Or is it okay to bend these rules?

Someone at work mentioned to me today that she thought that because my boyfriend and I are not married that I won't be able to put him on the birth certificate when our baby is born? Does this differ by state? If so we live in Florida so any information would be helpful.

So-I'm reading that most women didn't find the courses helpful at all.
I am debating on going at all..but my only thought is, won't it make HIM feel more prepared and at ease. Don't men like some backround info before being tossed in this room where I'm histerical and he doesn't know what to do? I wanted to go to the classes also for us to bond a little bit. Were any of these things a factor to any of you ? And did that play a part in saying the classes were helpless?

My 11 month just weaned herself from breastfeeding last week. Now, she won't drink! She will not breastfeed or take a bottle or sippy cup (i've tried bultiple different kinds of both!) And we've tried both formula and whole milk. She will drink about 5 ounces a day if we're lucky. She does get about 5-6 ounces of milk in her cereal 2x a day.

Yesterday I was out for like 10 minutes to run an errant and when I got back, I saw an empty juice bottle!! My family decided my 10 week old son looked thirsty and gave him some of my niece's juice! This is the second time they've done this, after I've told them not to! They gave him 60 ml (about 2 oz) of the stuff! They said they diluted it, so it's "ok"...

They also love to give him 'tastes' of food. The other day I found my sister trying to force him to lick a cheese curl! When I ask them not to do it, they tell me not to 'be like that'. Like I'm being difficult or a b*tch.

I am at my wit's end here... They're ALL like that. They say, "well so and so's baby got this and that at this age and s/he's fine". In my opinion So and So needs some training if they gave a 10wk old chips!!

I can't keep the baby away from them, but obviously I can't trust them either! What to do?
