Answering That One Question Any Hates to Be Asked...

My 3 year old son came home from daycare and asked me about his dad. I always told my son his dad name and things like that. But the other day he came home and said "Mommy does my daddy work alot because I never see him?" I just didnt know what to say. Then he asked if he could see his dad. He is only 3 years old I don't want to set him up of all of this and be let down because his dad doesn't want to see him. I just don't know what to say. I am more then willing to help him get to know his dad. But a 3 years old I don't know what to do. I...

Almost 6 Month Old Not Digesting Solids, Help.

My baby girl will be 6 months this week and is having the hardest time digesting solid food. She has shown allergies to rice and oatmeal cereal, rash on her cheeks, so we have stopped those. She absolutely loves to eat the baby food but most of it is binding her up and she is going 3 days without a bm. We end up giving her prunes to help her digest. She is breastfed and has been very sensitive to everything I eat. I am not sure where to go from here. We have been giving her Baby Bliss Gripe Water since she was a few weeks old and it...

Diapers for Skinny Babies?

hi Moms, My 8 month old son is too big for size 1 diapers (he's 14.5 lbs). Though they fit in the waist, they are like low-riders on him and leak out the top. However, the size 2 diapers are too big (wide) in the waist! I have to put each tab from one side all the way over to the other side and cross them. I've tried several brands. He is normal in height (50th percentile) but is very skinny (5th percentile weight). (He is perfectly healthy according to pediatrician) Has anyone found any diapers that work for skinny babies?? ...

18 Month Old Gets Ear Infections with Every Cold

My son gets an ear infection with every cold he gets. He's seen an ENT, and they recommend he get tubes if he gets another infection. My husband and I are against this. We hope he'll outgrow them. Please share your experiences whether you are in support or against ear tubes. Thanks for your advice.

Seeking New Ideas for What to Feed My 16 Month Old for Lunch

I am just looking for any ideas on what new things I could feed my 16 month old for lunch. I feel I am just stuck in a rut. She has things like turkey and tortilla and cheese and a fruit, PB&J. I have tried a grilled cheese and quesadilla, but she doesn't seem to like them. She is a good eater, I just need some new ideas so she doesn't get used to the same things and will eat a variety of foods. She eats almost anything at dinner time (meat, veggie, bread or pasta).

Blackberry, Palm Pre, Droid Luv Em or Hate Em?

I will be getting a new phone within the next 4-6 months. It is mind-boggling, trying to think of what will be a good fit for me. I talk and text, but not excessively (mostly because I am in my vehicle so much!). I like to take pictures on my phone, but only to share phone-to-phone. I have never retrieved them off the phone to computer. My husband has a blackberry for work and I am not all that impressed with it He's had both the Storm and Curve. It is very possible I would just need to get used to it. What about the Palm Pre or...

Is This Symptoms of Teething?

My 7 month old son is just getting his first two bottom teeth. At first I was giving him tylenol and that really did the trick for his fussiness/pain. Now he yells at a high pitch/or baby talking all day but when I pick him up or look at him he stops. He really doesn't seem like he's in pain.He doesn't like things like the cold teether and tylenol isn't working. Any suggestions? I'm afraid to use teething tablets because of the belladonna in it?
