i will have my baby on friday by induction and i still have christmas shopping to do and i want to breastfeed also so i couldn't leave him with someone all day so when do you think it is okay for him (and a new first time mom) to go on outings. and even to visit family etc, just in general get out of the house? or at how old did you start taking your new baby out?

The woman on here who is constantly criticizing women for their choice to formula feed. The woman with the accounts;
Jorvice, Kanter, Klover, (and now using Dolly) and all the other ones she has ..
(her main account is Illyana's Mommy)
Is there any way to prevent her from answering questions on here? Because quite frankly, I am SICK of asking a question and getting a response from her telling me how ugly my daughter is! It has become harassment!
Is there any way to get rid of this wicked woman all together?
(I've blocked EVERY account she has ever used to answer my questions, but she's creating new accounts on a daily basis, and the things she says is absolutely horrible!)
Can someone please tell me how to block her ISP or something? so that ALL of her accounts can be blocked at one time?
(oddly, this woman is harassing me, and I breastfeed!)

He wasn't sick yesterday but today his nose started getting runny and now it is just stuffed up. We breastfeed, so I'm hoping my milk has enough antibodies to lessen the severity of the cold. In the meantime, what medicine, if any, can I give him? He is 5 months old tomorrow. My doc isn't in and the message they have on their machine doesn't give me an on-call number....I'm not sure what to do. I want to relieve his stuffy nose so he can breath nurse.

My 5 and a half month old goes down to sleep at the same time every night. We feed him his solids, then bottle, then bed. He use to sleep from 9pm to about 6 or 7 am, but just a few days ago he started this thing where he wakes up at 3:30am on the dot and doesn't go back to sleep till about 10am. Nothing has changed in his schedule we are feeding him the same and putting him down the same. I can't figure out why he has started this up or what I can do to make him go back to sleeping through the night......

Many people say they want their kids circumcised so his penis will look the same as his fathers.

I don't know about you guys, but I never spent much time looking at my parents private parts. I only saw them on accident and didn't want to get a good look.

Is there something I am missing?

She will only go to sleep if I rock her. She used to allow me to just put her down in her crib drowsy, but at about 7 months she began becoming more needy, and always wanting to be rocked. I tried the crying thing when she was 7 months, but I couldn't do it. I'm thinking about trying it again now because I am so exhausted! She still wakes during the night also. Sometimes she's up 2 or 3 times! I just feel so bad letting her cry! But, I'm running on empty here and I feel like I spend the majority of my day tending to her sleeping issues. Any opinions?

Im a first time mom to a 3 month old girl...lately, as expected, her saliva has dramatically increased, causing her to drool constantly. And her fists are glued to her mouth. Fine with me, i know she's a baby and thats what they do. However, she is getting a little rash (tiny red spots) around her mouth...i wipe her as much as possible, but as im sure all you parents know..wipe all you want, its just going to be a slobbery mess 2 seconds later. Is there anything that i can put around her mouth that is meant for this type of "slobber rash" or whatever it is? Or will it just pass when her swallowing reflexes come to her and the slobber decreases?

When you can just give cows milk after they turn a year old? Would it just be used a supplement if a baby isn't eating properly or something?

I had my shower on Sunday and got alot of hooded towels, wash clothes, blankets, burp clothes and receiving blankets.

Are receiving blankets and hooded towels the same thing? I was shocked the hooded towels weren't made from towel material, it's just normal cotton. You really use this to dry off your baby after abath? Can I use them to wrap my baby as well?

I only got 6 burp clothes, is that enough? Im just a bit confused lol!

My dog, a doberman, her first time, gave birth to 7 healthy puppies. She gave birth last sunday 4am until 8am. She seem fine and is acting normal exept that she doesn't want to drink plain water, she only want to drink milk. Her appetite for food is OK, also. But then i am worried because her bleeding still hasn't stopped. Is there anything i could give or do for her, apart from bringing her to the Vet, to stop the bleeding. Or this is just normal. Please help.

Thank you!

I deleted everything else the I received from my shower. My MIL is getting my the wipe warmer for Christmas, and I am going to get the avent bottle heater this weekend.

Is the little seat & boppy pillow necessary? Im not breastfeeding, are they something I will need? I am staying home for 6 months after the babies born. If I got the processor as a christmas gift from someone, would I be able to use it before going back to work?

Do I need a insulated bottle tote bag??

Thanks!

I have a 9 week old daughter. I bought this baby carrier with which I can carry her in the front and on my back. It says on the box that it is suitable from birth on, but we tried it out a couple of weeks ago and she really didn't look comfortable in it, she kind of slumped and her back wasn't straight at all. It seemed as if she didn't have enough support. Are these baby carriers not made for small infants or does she have to be able to sit first? What am I doing wrong and when can I carry her in that carrier because although her stroller is just fine for most times it would be very convienent and nice if I could just carry her on me sometimes, too.

I used it when she had a cold, about 2 weeks ago now, and the red marks are not going away, I've tried sorbylene lotion, with no result. Can any one help me with some suggestions? (Other than using baby vicks next time instead of adult stuff!) the marks dont seem to be bothering her at all, they just wont go away.

The is this guy who has posted his request for donations three times.
He is on disabiltity and his girlfriend is on welfare,three children.
They can't afford to to buy them new items yet, they chose to have children. Unbelievable and outrageous!
He is so excepting of his meager, poor lifestyle yet he is real stuck up snob who wants to best! HA!

Beggars can't be choosers, but this beggar wants to be in the position of chossing what he wants, when he wants.
If beggars want to choose, then they should get off of disability, and welfare, go get jobs and earn their own money!

I like to see people answer this!

I'm just curious who on here had their son circumsized? I'm feeling a bit confused as to what I should do and my son is almost 2 weeks old...I cant do it until his jaundice is gone, but I'm concerned as to whether or not I should do this for my son? What are the pros and cons of circumsizing?

For the last 2 days he has been screaming. Now, he has JUST learned he CAN scream, but he is doing it for fun (I think?).

We hold him, play with him, give him his tylenol etc.

Is acting grumpy and loud normal when teething? Because when he got his first few teeth he was fine.

The new ones that are coming in are the top 2 and a molar (The doctor said the molar was coming in, I didnt just assume).

AND, what can I do to help a cranky baby. (Yes this is my first).

Also, he is biting his lip and making it bleed, what can I do to stop him from doing this, or is it normal?

Thank you so much.

AND ALSO, NO RUDE ANSWERS! Yes I have called his doctor, she said it was ALL normal, BUT I want advice from other parents.

she's my closest friend and is having a baby girl just as I write this. It is her first child and she is also the first of my friends to have a baby, so... I'm really in need of some good suggestions as to what to get her as a gift. I won't be able to see her for a few weeks so I wanted to send her something until then. I don't want tp send flowers becasue I think they're so impersonal and just too easy. I want to to do something to let her know how happy and proud I am of her. Should I include her husband too? Is that a stupid question? I sometimes feel like the men kind of lose out on the "Congratulations". I know she's the one who really deserves the gift for going through the labor. I would love to hear some suggestions. Thanks!
