So I have a 5 1/2 month old Son. Just wanted some feedback about how he is sleeping an whats normal for his age.
We got to the point where he was sleeping pretty much through the night, But he has been teething since he was 3 months. We put him down for the night anywhere between 8-9:30pm. He is on solids now which is really nice..not feeding him every minute. So the past few weeks now he has been waking up anywhere from 2am-4am for a night feeding an a change. He does eat an I change him and he goes right back to sleep, He waking ups in the morning between 6am-7am. I feel that he should be sleeping through the night but he still wants to wake up and eat. So is this normal for his age or am I doing something wrong. ThanksView Thread

I am hoping that maybe his vision is changing and he has already mastered my face, so he is just taking it all in, but it makes me uneasy. When I deliberately want to talk to him I cannot get his attention.
Thanks.View Thread
WebMD will be covering President Obama's State of the Union address on Tuesday, Jan. 25, at 9 p.m. ET, and the Republican response afterwards as it regards health care in our country. We will also be live-tweeting during both events. Follow us on Twitter and search for #wbmdsotu to join in the conversation.
As part of the event, we'll be gathering member questions about health care reform both before and after the president's address and will present those questions to Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius, in a roundtable panel on Thursday, Jan. 27, at 4:30 p.m. ET. We invite you to submit your questions (http://blogs.webmd.com/breaking-news/2011/01/ask-your-health-care-reform-questions.html ), and then join us in the live event on Thursday (whitehouse.gov/live) to see how they were addressed.
If you are unable to view the event live, we'll be posting the video up on our WebMD Newsroom blog (http://blogs.webmd.com/breaking-news/ ).
We hope that this information will be helpful to you as you try to navigate all the new changes in our country's health care system.
Take care,

Anyway, everyone comments on how big he is and my mom mentioned could there be anything wrong. He is so happy and healthy and he is just big. Does anyone else have a happy, healthy, BIG baby? He goes for his 4 mo. visit on the 17th, which I will check in with doc., but I am getting worried, should I have any concern?
I figure he is growing at the same rate/curve since he was born.View Thread
The real down side, the only time he wants to eat is at night, and because of the hard time I have in the day getting him to eat, I give in and feed him when he cries... every 2 hours like clockwork!
I am going to try to get him to eat less at night hoping he will sleep more and then be hungry in the day instead. Starting tonight I am going to try only offering a bottle every second time he wakes, and try to get him back to sleep with a soother the other times.
Has anyone else had any problems like this and have any more advice?View Thread
ON the other hand i have an 18 month old girl who refuses to eat. She can fit into my 4 month old's 3-6 mnth clothes better than he can! She will not eat anything we give her for dinner but she will crawl around the house to find anything and everything else to eat that she is not suppose to eat!
How do i get my 4 mnth old to not be always hungry and how do i get my 18 mnth old to Eat?View Thread
Has anyone else gone this long breastfeeding to sleep and how was the battle to change? How did it go for those that stopped swaddling? Any little pointers that may make our process just a little easier? TIAView Thread
I do have a question about my DD, I never ran into this with my son, but i noticed a couple days ago she was sounding really hoarse and raspy when we she coo's, she hasnt been sneezing or coughing a lot (maybe a couple times a day), shes been a little crankier then normal. this afternoon i took her temp and she was at 100.2, i gave her some tylenol, and put her to bed with the humidifier, i havent heard a peep in about an hour. Our weather (we're in NH) has been really odd, it was 38 degrees yesterday for a high, today it was almost 50, tomorrow it will be almost 60. We are planning to move on December 6th to Florida, i'm just wondering what might be up with her? When should i give the doc a call? I know at her 4 month apt i was told she starting to teethe.View Thread
