infant care question by
cara
I will be going back to finish my PhD on a part time basis toward the
end of the summer and by then my baby will be about 4 months old. A
good friend of mine has offered to watch her while I am at work/school,

is a SAHM). I...

8-5 nanny at home by
ted
I'm planning the day care situation for my kids. I admit that's all I
think of. So much that it's driving me crazy. The pg hormones are not
helping either!
By the time I have to go back to work after mat. leave, the new baby
will be about 3 months old and my DD will be about one and half. I...

Looking for comments ... by
John Sambrook
Do you have experience dealing with parenting problems and
dilemmas? If so, I'd welcome your comments on a whitepaper
written by myself and one of my co-workers.
The paper draws on some work done in another domain (business),
but I think it's useful for dealing with family / personal dilemmas...

My son's hampster died. by
jbrianchamberlin
Well, we had him put down because he had a tumor. My wife was at work
and I had to deal with telling my 4 year old. Some people said to
lie, buy another hamster and make the switch.. others just said let
him deal with it. I didn't know what to do but we got through it okay.
He cried a little.....

How big of a deal is head circumference of the baby? by
ted
I had a sonogram (actually two) because my ob thought the baby's head
is too small (3rd percentile) and the baby itself is small (7th
percentile). Now he's concerned about the head circumference and wants
me to get a second opinion with a specialist and take a level-2
sonogram. So this will be my...

Child monitors are better than harnesses by
biffou
There are several products to keep a tab on your child so they don't get
lost. Some are GPS or cell tower based but I would hardly rely on anything
that is cell tower based to find my kid. How often have we had a dropped
call or a "faded signal"? That is not what you want when you want to find
a...

Potty Training (possible TMI) by
Krista
A little backstory:
When my daughter was a newborn she freaked out every time she pooped because
it startled her. Eventually she learned to hold it and started having
constipation problems.

pooped. We started taking her to...

pamela60
Here's the deal. My niece wants my 4-year-old son to be the ring
bearer in her wedding this September. My son is already saying he's
not going to do it. He's stubborn and also shy. I've tried to explain

down the aisle carrying a...

Am I risking it? by
ted
What's your opinion about a baby girl's name 'Avanti'? I absolutely
love the name. It has a nice meaning in quite a few languages.
Upon a search on this ng I found out about the non-latex brand. I wish
I hadn't searched :(
Anyways, what's your take on this name? If I have a girl and I name
her...

small lifestyle changes after kids by
ted
I was thinking of making curtains for my living room. DH was saying
the kids will wipe their faces on them and/or pull at them so we
should wait for few years. I can't deny this because I distinctly
remember doing that when I was little. Also, I was checking out nice
planters for indoor plants and...
