I am putting together a care package for a newborn.
I need help deciding exactly what to put in the package.

What single item could you NOT live without when you had a newborn??
It's a boy if that helps...

I am 34 years old and have alway wanted a child. I have the perfect Fieance that will be a great dad, but I am so fearful of the whole process and then staying home after the baby is born, because I don't have family to help me. I am so nervous. Is this normal?

Let me try this again. I just want to hear some funny stories about advice given to you by grandparents. I am not asking for help to deal with grandparents in any way because fortunately they live far away. For example.. I was told to put my son to sleep on his belly and to put cereal in his bottle when he was 2 weeks old because he wasn't sleeping through the night. Obviously it had been a while since they had kids. It's amazing how times change and ways to raise children change.

My 4 yr old daughter is having corrective eye surgery on 9-20. She has Strabismus and Amblyopia. For you who have experienced this, What should we expect after we bring her home? I know what all the dr has told us, I have the printouts on the surgery and what to expect.. but I would like to know first hand from others who have been thru it. Were they in much pain? Did they complain of light hurting their eyes? Did they try to rub them alot? ANYTHING would help. She is having the surgery on both eyes, not just one. Thank you for sharing your experiences with me.

Hi,
Ive got a 20 month old baby girl, she is amazing and I love her to bits but during her birth I suffered badly, I ended up being rushed for an emergency c-section, the numbness had not gone deep enough so I felt them operating on me, so they then had to knock me out to deliver her, when they where operating my left lung collapsed and I ended up spending the first few hours away from her in intensive care.

I didnt bond with her at all, couldnt breast feed, and ended up with severe post natal depression afterwards for the first 8 months of her life.

Ive recovered with great help and support from my fiance and family and great friends, and were as close as can be now, but its getting to the stage when Id like to consider having a little brother or sister for her and Im worried.

Not so much that the same thing with the birth will happen - as ive since spoke with the consultant - but that I wont bond with the new baby, and how I'll cope.

Any advice? I would like another

I'm 7 days late for my period today, but that is the only symptom of pregnancy I'm showing. If I am pregnant then I have been for about a month. My boyfriend and I used protection, and used it correctly. No leaks, no rips, no tears. I'm also very worried/stressed about it because i'm only 16, and my boyfriend is 17. I know now that "if I didn't want to risk it, I shouldn't have had sex..." so please don't post any negative responces, just give me advice. I'm taking a test tomorrow, and I'm also very nervous about that. Could I be pregnant? or am I just freaking out?

Hi , we are a god fearing couple. We do not like to use condoms, diaphrams or pills. Is there any safe way of avoiding pregnancy ? We definitely cant stop having sex (the natural way)!! we would have continued having children if we were rich enough to look after them.

I'm recently married, and I just found out that I am also pregnant! (yay! :) ) I was talking to a friend of mine that got mad when he found out that I was married, yet alone pregnant (I live in Texas, he lives in Alabama now) Anyways... he started talking s*** and the next thing to come out of his mouth was that he hoped that MY CHILD DIES... how the heck can anyone be that inconsiderate about something...? I mean, I was like "talk crap about me or my husband(he doesn't like my husband), that's fine... but bringing an unborn child into this...!? How can somebody be that inconsiderate!?

I DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIM ANYMORE AND I DON'T WANT TO BE FRIEND'S WITH HIM, EITHER... that should clear things up

When I was pregnant, during labor and delivery, and after I had my baby there are things that I wished I'd known. What are some things that you can tell a woman who is pregnant for the first time that you wished someone had told you about, through pregnancy, labor, delivery, after the birth...... Just thought it would be nice to tell them some things to expect that maybe nobody else has told them.

we kinda want to start having kids but I'm not sure. Because I want to go ahead and have kids but at the same time I feel like I still want to party and have fun and I can't do that anymore after I have kids. But my husband is 26 and I don't want him to be 30 before we start a family. Any advice?

brother? She was a little disappointed to find out that she is getting a brother and not a sister....and I am having this baby with my husband (which is her step-dad), so that always makes things a little more awkard...as opposed to having a baby with her biological Dad. To top it off, her biological Dad is expecting a son also, but 2 months after I am having mine. So it's kind of a different situation and wanted to hear some tips on making her feel just as much a part of the baby's birth and making sure she doesn't feel left out at all....thanks!

Just a few question for anyone who would be so kind to answer.

One is how long did it take to get rid of the extra weight and what extent in excersizing did you go to if any at all?

Two How long after I give birth will the lactating stop completely?

Is it difficult being an only parent of a new born without help?

Whats the average age a kid starts talking well and almost completes sentences?

these are just a few, and thanks for taking the time to answer :)

I am currently 17 weeks. My son is 12 months and still nurses for bed, comfort and naps. He has slowed down alittle but I'm not pushing the issue as I planned to Breastfeed for 2 years anyway. I know to feed the new baby first when he/she comes for the first bit until the milk comes in but other than that has anyone come upon issues with it? I'm expecting him to want to nurse more out of jelousy. Also I know he may stop when it turns to colustrom soon as the taste may change, how did you deal with starting up nursing again? Did your child start nursing again?

Also I will be continuing to breastfeed. It is best, there is nutritional value. I dont need people telling me crap about that. I dont care. I am looking for advice on what is to come not opinions on my parenting style. Thank you.

And please tell me where you are from. This is just to see what everyone's opinions are. I am curious to know how differently people feel about it. I breastfeed, and my southern Alabama family thinks it is gross!! I live in California and my son is 9 months old. I also don't breastfeed him anymore in public, only at home. he is not walking yet, your opinions please??
