I posted a question y.day saying i couldnt get my child to try the same food he eats in different ways etc, i did get help but also many people saying i spoil him and to starve him. Im a great mum, my son has a very healthy and varied diet, its just he likes it prepared in the same way, as for an unknown reason hes scared of eating it when it looks different. Just quite hurt by some comments, sorry to moan

Ever since my son has turned 3 he is afraid of everything that he never was before. Afraid of the dark, going into a room by his self. Is this just a phase?

So @ 3 am she woke up with a 102.5 temp.. i gave her tylenol it barely dropped.. 4 hrs later i gave her more.. same thing i call the doctor and go in..

the do all the normal look see to check her, she has a temp of 102.8 when we get there BTW. So they do the whole exam and find nothing at all.. so outta no where they decide to do bloodwork, and a urine sample which means a cath.
Needless to say she was over due for tylenol, i asked 3 times they said to wait do this n that first... after a 3 hr dr. visit we get sent home with NO ANSWERS for the fever, and no tylenol in her no recheck on the temp. At this point she is like sleeping. So dumbfounded we leave, as we are pulling around the dr. parking lot( which is in the same building as the Hospital. She has a seizure in the car... I rushed back around the building to the ER hysterically. They take her temp its 104.4 !!! Seizure was brought on by high fever..They gave her motrin & tylenol to knock it down. ( cont. in details )

We will be attending a week-long outdoor music festival when my daugher is 12.5 months old. She currently is 11.5 months and nurses 15-25 times daily. We will have a nice quiet place to go nurse but I'm still a little worried about the effect it might have on our nursing relationship. She did have one ten-day nursing strike when she was ten months old but that was due to a sore throat. I'm a worry-wart LOL, any experiences you can share would be appreciated.

this is a typical day with my daughter please help.
she cries alot. she likes to play by herself even if there are other kids around. she will spend a good bit of time spinning around til she gets dizzy or she jumps and jumps and jumps. she seems to zone out alot and will stare at something for awhile or stare at the ceiling fan. we can not take her out to the store because she just cant handle it we stopped taking her out to eat it was just to hard. she hates and wont keep on socks or shoes. she has a speech delay. its very hard to get her to eat something unless she wants to eat (yes i know she is 2 but what do you do if she wont eat she has gone for 4 days at a time with out eating) she only has 3 bottles a day (hey pick your battles as my pcp says) and 1 sippy cup of juice. she dont sleep through the night and naps are far & few and cries alot after waking up she cant self calm (behavorist is even stumped what to do) she throws a temper that could scare nanny 911.
HELP

I want to get my 2yr old into modeling. she has a great personality and absolutely loves the camera!
She is a little social butterfly wtih a bundle of energy. She thrives on giving and recieving attention. She is great with people and other kids....she is also friendly, personable and cute as a button.....I have only come to this conclusion after people have been over the past year ro more been telling us (her parents) to get her into acting or modeling. It is not just because she is pretty, she has got something special about her that always attracts people from all walks of life.
People stop us all the time and every where we go...she melts down the most uptight people with her hearty laughter.
We always hear "Oh my god! she is sooo cute!" Only to turn around to find our two year old entertaining a bunch of folks with her own made up acts. Its just incredible! we do not teach her anything other than the normal abc's etc, and she is an only child.

He is showing none of the signs of readiness. He doesnt push or squat or go to a corner when making BM. It is like he doesnt even know when he is going. He doesnt seem to notice when he urinates either. We have bought dozens of books and tried every method we have heard of, with no results. Not even candy or toys will motivate him to go. Any suggestions?

I have called the doctor but haven't heard from them yet. Anyone have any ideas?

I want to teach my 2 1/2 year old son the proper way to manage his anger, but I'm not very good at it myself. I have a tendency to yell and throw things, and don't want him to pick up my bad behavior. I've gotten better, but I dont know what to tell him to do when he gets angry. How should a 2-3 year old handle anger or frustration?
