FEEDING NIGHTMARE 2008-04-30 02:00:00 My son seems to be more interested in flirting, exploring and playing games than in eating! He only feeds 1-2 minutes at a time or just 2-3 oz at a time. Lately, refusing the bottle has become one of his favorite games with the "no-no-shaking of his head" he gets his point across!HELP!! He has been gaining weight but not as much as he should be.The only time he seems interested in eating is in the middle of the night when he is more succumbed by sleep than by his curiosity to make sure everything is still in place in his room.I have no problem putting him to sleep.. but I can't seem to convince him that he can and should sleep trough the night!!
Baby Allergies-Need tips on caring for baby's eczema breakouts? 2008-04-23 12:13:00 When Jordan was 6 wks old, he broke out into this measles-like rash all over his face. I was in TEARS!! He had red bumps that would turn in to patches that eventually linked together. The worst was when we went to my in-laws and his bumps suddenly started oozing a sticky yellow fluid. I did research on it and here's what I learned:If there is history of Allergies
or Asthma in the family (mostly from father's side) children will most likely inherit their allergies.Will usually out grow "MOST" of their allergies by 6mos to 1 year. THEIR SKIN IS NOT ABLE TO RETAIN MOISTURE-hence, the dry patchy skin that evolves into eczema.Will most likely breakout in areas where baby sweats the most (joints, back of the knee, elbows crease, neck and wrists)If left untreated, can develop into scars ( ..as it

NEED HELP IN PUTTING YOUR LITTLE ONE TO SLEEP?? 2008-04-11 18:54:00 If you're like me; a first time mom, you'll appreciate some helpful tips on how to get more than four hours of sleep at night. I was walking around like a zombie for months because my son would wake up every two hours to feed. He is now 8 months and wakes up only once a night..(and that will be changing soon as well..)If you've read all the books, they'll tell you you're supposed to sleep when you're baby sleeps..yeah right!!! Can't do that if you have laundry to wash, meals to cook, house to clean, bills to pay, showers to take, business to build, husband to pamper, dishes to wash, you get the picture. During the day it is almost impossible to take a nap while your baby naps because you have all those pressing matters in your mind you must take care of. So, without further adew...SLE
Work from home 2008-04-08 12:28:00 I have recently been checking out a site that provides thousands of pre-screened listings of work from home opportunities for stay-at-home moms. I have checked out a lot of these listings and they have amazing opportunities from legitimate employers who are willing to pay you for your hard work, provided you are qualified to do the job. Some require experience and others don't. For a small fee, this website allows you to access their listings. If you are like me, and have encountered nothing but scams and "Get rich quick" schemes, this site pre-screens their listings so you don't have to waste time getting ripped off by the new Internet scam of " I'll show you how to make 6 figure income from home with my PROVEN SYSTEM for a small fee of $......"I want to share this information with you be
What is this picture worth?? 2008-02-13 20:11:00 This is my son Jordan, he is 2 1/2 months in this picture. This photograph was nominated as a finalist in an International Open Amateur Contest and was also chosen for publication by the International Library of Photography. He has a 1000 different smiles and quirks and I hope to capture them all on camera! Hopefully, by getting his pictures published, I can build him a nice College fund.

Newborn's conversation with God 2008-05-07 13:44:00 A baby asked God:They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless? God said, 'Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you.'The child further inquired, 'But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing and smile to be happy.' God said, 'Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you. And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy.'Again the child asked, 'And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me if I don't know the language?' God said, 'Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.''And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?' God said, 'Yo Read more:Newborn

A MOTHER'S PRAYER 2008-05-15 12:20:00 Do you believe in miracles? I do; I'd like to share the story of a miracle. There was a girl once, broken by life's struggles, who hoped one day to give the kind of love that she had never experienced. Have you ever felt abandoned? Lonely? Betrayed? Abused? Ignored?..She did, she was all too familiar with these feelings. They made her hard, guarded, mistrusting, angry. Deep inside she was kind,
STOMACH VIRUS OR FOOD ALLERGY? DOCTOR'S TEXTBOOK KNOWLEDGE VS. MOTHER'S INSTINCTS 2008-05-19 19:57:00 Jordan has been vomiting for a week. Doctors pawned it off as a "Stomach virus". (Without any blood test may I add). Ever since Jordan broke out with his Allergies, all I've keep hearing from Doctors is "He's too young to have allergies" "Kids this age do not develop food allergies"..Hmmm.. Let me recap:Fed Jordan milk based formula at 2 1/2 monthsResponse: Projectile vomiting/No diarrheaF

It is a means to bring some awareness to parents who may take their kids safety for granted because of the confidence we have in ourselves of being good parents.We have to humble ourselves to the possibility that no matter how pro-active we are, ho
