DS2 seems to be hitting all of his milestones faster than DS1. He has been crawling since 8 months (DS1 was 11 months), he has 5 teeth (DS1 was 11 months), and he just said his first word "Mama" (DS1 was 9 months and said "Dada" first). I think he will be walking earlier too (DS1 was 14 months). He already pulls himself up to his knees when he is trying to get into the toybox or Mega Bloks wagon. But he is still not sitting up. You can put him on the floor into a sitting position and he will immediately start crawling. Maybe the problem is that he doesn't want to sit still?
Over all he is a very good baby. The only time he really cries is if he is sleepy or hungry. He is eating more and more table food. And is doing much better with a sippy cup. I am so proud of all of his little accomplishments. He is a very happy baby and is so very lovable!View Thread
My problem is this: when it's my turn to watch him (very rare) and he gets sleepy he's been conditioned to 1) nurse 2) take a nap. He does not sleep unless these conditions are met or we're in the car once in a while. Since I am unable to nurse am I crazy to think that I should be able to feed him then have him nap or that he should be able to nap on his own? Because the info I'm getting from her is that 'all babies only sleep after nursing or drinking milk from the bottle' and that it's weird that I think he should be able to nap without nursing.
She previously told me that babies don't learn until they're 6 to 8mo so you can understand why I'm skeptical.
Thank you for reading and I welcome all feedback you can give me.View Thread

We took him in to get checked outyesterday and our dr gave us a Rx for his ear since it was very red.
He seems to be happy about 75% of the day, the other 25% he's miserable.
Anyways, just today he had two poops - the first one was extremely mushy, the second was green diarrhea.
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? He seems very happy at the moment. No fever or anything.
He hasn't been eating his solids as much since he's been sick so he's had a couple extra bottles a day.. But I doubt that would cause diarrhea!View Thread

Please help a Mom and Dad who need a break!!!!! ThanksView Thread
any ideas/opinios would be greatly appreciated.View Thread
The fever is usually in the 100.4 - 101.5 range and not higher.
When I measure under the armpit, its normal, same with taking a measurement on his temple.
It is only when measured rectally is when it shows that he has a mild fever.
Any ideas what it could be? We did tests and nothing, the local Dr's are puzzled and really don't know what to do so that is why I am posting on webMD to share my story, hoping someone else can help!
Thanks

I'm worried because a couple days I took the pill later in the afternoon because I forgot. I really hope I'm not pregnant, because we are not trying, plus, I've been drinking lots of wine lately at parties, etc. My breasts do feel a little sore, which I know is the first sign of pregnancy. Does anyone know if sore breasts are a side effect of these pills? I'm really worried.View Thread
