  • @0811 yes she does but only her left ear. We use cipro drops directly in the ear and that takes care of it so we can avoid oral antibiotics. She tends to only get them the first 6 months or so of the year and then she is good (once cold/flu season p…

  • Sounds EXACTLY like my daughter, always gets ear infections with her runny nose since she was 3 months old and had to get ear tubes for having that happen 6 times in her first 6 months of life... and she currently has the exact same symptoms as your…

  • Mine came the day after her EDD, but I went into labor at 2am on her EDD. :) for the last month, I walked 1 to 2 miles in the hills every morning which helped me go on time.... each person is different, walking helps dilate and efface so try that :)
  • Her symptoms started when she was about 3 months old as being very fussy most of the time and very bad cold and sinusitis type symptoms. Kept being told it was a cold, however it didn't go away. antibiotic after antibiotic, with both ear drums burs…
  • Virus is going around, my baby is still not eating solids (throws them up) and drinking half the formula she ate before and it has been almost a week. I got a hint of it, still little appetite with me and I got it the day after her. Hope everyone's …
  • Update: still very little appetite. Can't keep solid food down, switched to soy and pedialite per dr's orders. She ate 4 oz of formula this morning, 4 more oz 3 hours later, 2.5 oz 3 hours after that, almost 3 oz 3 hours after at 520pm, and refused …
  • Shaving cream! My mom used it on my 3rd degree burns when I was 2 and it helps cool the burning sensation, as I am told.
  • Thanks, guys! Glad I am not alone. I will make an appt with the ped. :)
  • Gosh, idk, prolly get rid of her. I hate to do that cuz I have had her since she was born so we are all she knows..and olivia loves her to death! But at the same time my daughter comes first.
  • Uhm, lawyer?!
    in omg wtf. Comment by meliz1187 April 2012
  • @mom2ing Thanks I will try that. :) just sucks when you feel so helpless for so long!
  • A piano! My lo loves to kick at the keys and make sounds. Plus you can get some that can become more of a piano table rather than just the piano keys (make sense?) So that they can sit and play or stand up and play.
  • Ugh, I remember experiencing it during my pregnancy. My little one is 5 months now and I still get an episode every few days...but not as intense. It'll get better! :)
  • Still waiting! She is 5 months and will sit in a bumbo and in our lap but she likes to launch herself backwards so we can't practice with her sitting by herself in fear she will bang her head hard on the ground. She even tries launching herself back…
  • I tried it and it didn't make me start labor....nor contract...NOR give me diarrhea which is what it is supposed to do! I had I think 3 oz with hot tea. Good luck, but no success story here. :)
  • Mine started to come on her dd, at 2am so I figured I'd have her by the afternoon.....ha, guess again!! I didn't have her til 119 am on the 25th, almost 24 hours later. This was not an induction. I am sooooo jealous of those who had quick labors! :/
  • Seriously, I don't understand why they feel it's ok. It's weird cuz I know a girl that stopped dating a guy that treated her like an absolute ANGEL because she started talking to her ex who treated her like shit....
  • Agree with @ashley_smashley.

  • PATIENCE!! And lots of it... Not take everything so seriously and quit being so hard on myself for not looking the way I did pre-preg. I created a baby for pete's sake! :) And the fact that I don't have to be a supermodel to turn my hubby on, desp…
  • @bettymomma I agree with the pad thing! I change my almost 5 month old every 2-3 hours, but I usually go by when she eats. I will change her right before or right after a feeding. No problems with diapie rash and she has super sensitive skin like he…
  • 40 lbs gained during pregnancy, I delivered at 190. I am currently 168 so 18 lbs to go, but I feel like I have hit a plateau....trying to up my protein, run farther, and eat better. We will see if I can get back to 150! :)
  • @sands3 even if you didn't buy the formula at Walmart, you can still return it there for a store credit if they carry that particular kind of formula....that is as long as they didn't scribble out the barcode on the cans u bought. We did this with d…
  • I took vitafusion prenatal sour gummies cuz of constipation, morning sickness, and they taste like sour patch kids! I tried flintstones cuz they had iron (the vitafusion did not) but I had to mash it up and chase it down with sweet juice because the…
  • My husband and I are HOOKED! It's about time that Shane died! He drove us nuts! we couldn't believe that the virus affected any dead person, not just ppl who were scratched/bitten. I had an idea that that would happen cuz the walker that killed Gale…
  • Before giving birth, I was a full 38E. Nursing, even bigger but I didn't measure then. I am currently a 38D or DD depending on the fit. I was a full 36C pre-pregnancy.
  • I have an almost 4 month old and she was the exact same way. I was told by multiple mommies and did a little research and found out that your baby may not NEED tummy time, in the sense that forcing them to be on their tummy may be unecessary. As lon…
  • Almost 16 lbs, not sure of the length. She is 4 months on the 25th.....98th percentile for weight :)
  • @my2boys I completely agree!
  • 6 oz every 3 hours, but we are starting rice cereal soon so we will see how it goes! She also is finally sleeping from 8pm to 6am! Yay for full night rest :)
  • That's true, but why dirty an extra dish? I guess its just time saving and easier to have it do that on it's own. But, to each their own :)
