I've switched him to cloth diapers (exept for at night to prevent diaper rash) and also put a little seat on our toilet for him, and have seen a huge improvement. He's only had 1 poo in his diaper since I started this about a week ago,...

My midwife approved wine in moderation at the end of my last pregnancy, and I hadn't had even a sip up until that point. I think I was about 8 months along before I had any, although I'd craved it sooo badly a few times before hand. I...

I've got a 14 month old boy who has been partially EC'd since he was just a couple of months old. We used to catch lots of his pees but now mainly just catch his poos, he generally doesn't pee in the potty except when he's on it to poo...

I'm also in my 5th week and just found out a few days ago. I'm breastfeeding a 10.5 month old, so we're pretty much in the same situation. The things that come to mind regarding your dizzyness/ lightheadedness is dehydration and low...

You sound like me! My son is 8.5 months old and he's had his head hit against doors and door-frames, and I even fell twice with him in my arms where I got hurt worse then him trying to keep him safe, but he still got a pretty good jar. ...

Do you have a timer? I find that when I am in a slump (it happens sometimes even on the days I do have access to our one car) the only way I can get anything other than the basics done is to set my timer to 15 minutes. 15 minutes work,...

I like the Baby Bjorn little potty, but my new favorite is the little toilet seat I found at Baby's R Us. I'm not sure why I didn't try it earlier since there is no clean up! It's by The First Years, has a blue base and white...

I'd love to hear any replies too! We bought 2 rails for our king size pillow top bed and once we put them in we realized that they didn't even go an inch over the height of the pillow top! Not very helpful. :P
