Toddler & Preschooler - July 2006

he was never a big eater but he used to eat noodles, fries, cookies and chocolates. he was 2 1/2 yr old when he stopped eating solid food completely due to toothache and 2 of his teeth were extracted because of this but he never ate solid food after.
he is 3 years old now and I NEED YOUR HELP.
I believe it is more a psychological problem more than anything else.

My daughter is 16 months old and she knows all about the potty and pee pee and poo poo. I am a first time mother and I have never had to potty train anything. I just dont know if I should reward her with something or what. Anything that worked for you I would like to know. My daughter is more into putting her dolls on the potty then sitting on it herself. I just need help with this whole potty trianing thing. Thank you

Maybe they repeated something from the TV, and it was bad........or maybe they insulted someone and didn't realize it! Mine would have to be this video of a girl and her mom. The mom was like "Get that camera out of face! I'm ugly!" and the little girl (her daughter) says "you're not ugly mom, you're beautiful....you're just sort of fat!" that was bittersweet! lol it was kind of cute though, the little girl was so innocent! Well thanks for answering and have a nice day! :)

I've noticed when I brush my daughters teeth, in the morning and before bedtime. When I have her to stick out her tongue to bursh it, it seems to have a yellow tint.!!!!
Anyone know why a 4yr old who eats very few snacks and sweets tongue would be yellow?
Any clues would be helpful:)

My kids love bubble baths but i have been told that they can get a yeast infection from to many.
Why is it caused from a bubble bath, is there something in the bubbles that causes one?
Is it sitting in a bubble bath for to long or every night bubble baths that causes it?
Can someone please explain this to me.
My kids have not got one yet but what are the chances of almost everynight bubble baths.

We've tried the Playdoh, Chalk, bubbles, and coloring. I would like some other ideas to entertain my daughter. Any ideas are welcomed. Would prefer to NOT buy MORE toys! And she watches enough TV already and computer-related activities are NOT an option. Thanks in advance.

He does it quite often, e.g. "you go take that slide and I'll take this one", or "Bobby, get on (the monkey bar), you can do it!", or "Bobby, you shouldn't do it again. You did it already."

Does that indicator a domineering or aggressive behavior? Or it's common among 4yr old first-born boys?

I have three kids ages 12months, 22months, and 5yrs. They all have late bedtimes, I am still up right now, so I do to and so does my hubby. I am unmotivated to get the house cleaned in the day, I do good to get in a 30min walk and keep up with my three boys. I am so disorganized, my house is a mess with papers and clutter and no one is on a schedule for anything. Where do I start?

My 4 year old is still in diapers. He loves nothing more than to run around the house with nothing on but a diaper, and a bottle. He is smart, and always finds the diapers wherever I hide them. If he is wearing clothes, he seaks the earliest time to take them off in favor of just his diaper. One time, he used a towel as a diaper when we hid them. Another time he used a T-shirt. Sometimes he just gets naked and goes outside in the middle of the yard. I am lost... please help!

My son is two and takes up a ton of my time. I had a pretty normal pregnancy but the 4 weeks that followed were very scary. Long story short I had a lot of complications. I am almost scared to be pregnant again. On top of the complications, I was a wreck emotionally. Due to anxiety, I take high doses of meds that you CAN NOT take while pregnant. I just now feel like I have my anxiety under control and hubby is really pushing for another...
so my question is...
How far apart is TOO far apart.
My sis and I are 6 years apart, VERY DIFFERENT and not close at all.
My hubby and his bro are 3 years apart and VERY close. I have also considered that he would be ok as an only child, or atleast I would be ok with it. But EVERYONE on hubby's side of the family is totally against it....

I was a little taken back but didn't show it (I don't think). I just told him that mommy and daddy fell in love and decided to get married and one day we decided to have a family. I went on to tell him that he lived in my belly for nine months (only because he knows that my sister-in-law is having a baby and she's pretty noticable). He then asked me how he got there.... OK .... I'm just so flabber gasted at this point, but I pull myself together and tell him that God just put him there until he was ready to come into the world. I'm just wondering if I handled this correctly. I'm pretty sure it's normal for him to be curious about this. What do you think of my explanation? He quickly forgot all about it and started playing with one of his games.

My son is really keen to be toilet trained, he sits on the potty and has the build up to potty training "training" down very well...
its the end of winter here, he is 2(next week) and is constantly asking for the potty, being so cold I've tried to get him to hold out for a bit, so my question is..
1) it's still cold, should i just potty train him anyway because of how enthusiastic he is?
2) should I teach him to stand or sit?
and 3)what was your method?
