Wow. I logged onto this forum to post about my sleep deprivation and having read this thread, I'm not feeling so bad after all. DS is 8 months old and has never STTN. He is an all night nurser but we had him almost transitioned to his...

Thanks, I do have that book but haven't read it since we were struggling to get DD to sleep in her crib a couple years ago. I didn't remember it having advice about all night nursing and wakefulness, but I'll get it out and have another...

When I was preg with DD we not only didn't know the sex but wouldn't reveal any names we were considering. It drove some people crazy, but most were very understanding. When friends would really try to push me to reveal names, I loved to...

Hi everyone, I guess I belong here too. I had an overmature placenta with DD that was first detected at 6 months due to her small size. They called it IUGR but she was actually born at 5.5 pounds which is just over the cutoff for low...
