my wife was prescribed this medicine when been discharge from the hospital, the doctor prescribing it said it was o.k. (compatible) with breastfeeding our daugther, to our suprised when we got the medicine from the farmacist it comes with a huge warning "THIS MEDECINE IS EXCRETED IN BREAST MILK. DO...

The thread on whole milk got me thinking...once a baby weans (either weans by themselves or "forced"), if they are allergic to dairy, what is the fat that they can take to help brain development instead of the fat found in whole milk? Dairy fats are *not* much like the fat in breastmilk...

When my kids had chicken pox, the doctor told us not to come in the waiting room -- he came out and saw us in the car. Fortunately it was decent weather out! --Helen Oh wow, that was very cool of him to do that.

wrote: All the resources I find seem to assume that the baby was started on solids at 4 months. So when things say that e.g. fork mashed stuff should be introduced at 6 months, it assumes that the baby has already had 2 months of puree. Once your child's been through the...

Congratulations! I predict that you will find one newborn delightfully easy after dealing with two! Leslie Yup, it was for us! Except there's that weird feeling of feeding the baby, putting it to bed, and then looking around thinking "When's the other one going to wake up?" And there just...

As a health and fitness expert, my passion is teaching women what's true and false when it comes to having a healthy pregnancy. (There's so much misinformation being spread out there, it really frustrates me.) And, the FIRST thing I want you to know is you don't have to take months (or years) to...

Hi - I have a friend who does the following with his child, and he claims to have read all the Parenting magazines and literally calls himself an "expert" on raising kids (he has one, that is 2 yrs old so far). He disagrees with me that these things are detrimental to his child's physical and...

Hello My 9 1/2 month old daughter will not have any part in baby food. But yet I try her with solid table foods - like green beans, eggs, toast, grilled cheese sand., and cheese. She does ok with those foods - oh and she loves cheese puffs (what a mess). But I feel like I give her the same thing...

I comprehend your problems. I started taking ginseng from www.ginsenghealth.net and it has relieved the problems you have experienced.

Ok, so for some reason, this really really really ticks me off. I don't understand why "new moms forums" exists and why they've chosen to post all the content from these established usenet newsgroups. A quick dash around their website shows, they've got a grand total of 31ish members (woop doo)....

I wanted to share these wonderful products with the group. My baby had terrible colic and would cry, cry, cry, cry. We weren't getting any sleep for weeks! Then I discovered GripeWater, a natural combination of fennel and ginger.....it worked wonders! I suggest that you visit www.blissbymom.com...

Hi, I weaned my 26 month old, one month ago, and ever since I just keep on putting on weight. My weight is normally very steady and I never gained weight when I weaned my middle son at the age of 2. (I was pregnant when I weaned my oldest). Does anyone have any ideas why I'm gaining so much weight...
