1 Month Old Seems Hungry After Nursing...

1 month old seems hungry after nursing 15 minutes on each side (crying when she is done, if I offer a bottle, she eats it). I'm worried that her weight is going to drop down again because she just doesn't seem to be getting enough. FYI -- She is only eating about every 3 hours or more -- because I'm always having to wake her to eat. Also, I'm still using nipple shields because of pain -- really want to stop these but just can't seem to go without. HELP! -should I increase feedings to every 2 1/2 hours during day? -Is it my diet? -How do...

Advice on Toddlers Face Rash

My daughter is 20 months and she has this rash on her lower part of her cheeks on both sides, has anyone ever come across this? If so, what do you suggest? I was told by the doctor just to put some Hydrocortisone on it three times a day, it's dry probably due to the weather. This rash looks to have gotten worse to my husband and I. It looks like scaly skin, however not in a ring so no ringworm it just looks real dry and now has little patches of redness to it.

Acid Mantle (Cream Mixed with Hydrocortisone) - Is It Safe?

I have a 15 month old son who has extremely sensitive skin and had horrible ezcema (sp?) since he was an infant. We found out that it was mostly caused by an allergy to pet dander so we had to give up our pug. Well, we have been using a prescription cream on him called A-Mantle since he was about 6 months old that our Pediatric Allergist prescribed (who is associated with CHOP). This cream is a hydrocortisone mixed with some other type of cream. We use it on him practically every single day (since he still has ezcema). I specifically...
