If you really believe you will go past due date, you likely will! I thought I would with both kids, and I did. I think a lot of it is mental. Tell baby to stay in until early January. In the end with...

[QUOTE=Bridget;1058786344] I am doing a social thinking curriculum with him that was recommended to me by Gwenn here on apa. [QUOTE]

What is the curriculum? I'd like to try it. Thanks for the...

I need some good advice on this issue. DS (turned 4 in March) will pinch or push DD (2.5) at least once a day. Often with no provocation. When I ask him why he says, "because I like to". I also ask...

DS is shy by nature. We socialize frequently with playdates, classes, storytimes, etc. So tell your friend you have proof she is wrong.:laugh:

So glad I have this sleep guide to go by now!:laugh:

This.

I have a crazy question...what is the purpose of a rash guard for kids? To protect from the sun? Where does the "rash" part come into play?

DH has an exercise class 3-4 times a week, but it's mostly at 5-6:30pm, so dinnertime for us. It doesn't bother me at all, but things run smoother when he's gone sometimes. Of course, you have a...

I was wondering, too, if she is napping too long. Although I'd hate to wake a sleeping baby. Do you think she gets too hot at night? I was just thinking that since she calms down when you go outside.

This. And I would have a talk with her myself.

Wow. It sounds like it was totally necessary. I bet your dad was just embarassed and will now remember to never do it again. I don't think you did anything out of line at all. Since all the relatives...

He only checked DS's chart and said when he was 2, he was right above borderline for how many words he was saying. He did give me a phone number for an autism screening place, but did not ask ANY...

Your're right, it seemed like it got adversarial after I said we weren't doing preschool. I just said DS wouldn't want to be dropped off where he doesn't know anyone. And that he is shy.

Yes, he does have a cough/cold. And he is afraid of shots, even though I told him there were none this time. I do think the dr was way overdramatic, and he did seem very pi**ed that he couldn't...

Didn't go so well. Actually, just the part where the dr wanted to check his ears and stomach. DS cried and wouldn't stay still for it, and couldn't be held down. Dr. then told me "This is not normal....

My neighbor looked in the yellow pages and found a business that does lice removal. She took her kids and herself there for treatment. They didn't use chemicals, just removed nits and lice. It cost a...

DD, after chewing some food, caught her frenulum (mucosal part by upper lip) between the gap of her upper front teeth. It is stuck, I've tried, our pediatrician has tried, our dentist was going to...

DS has had this happen just like you described. I really feel it's from his overnight diaper, though. It shows up some mornings, not after wearing underwear. I just put a barrier like zinc oxide or...

I would have done the same as you. The invite came kind of late, so they should have known you might already be cooking. Also, with a toddler, you can't just pick up and go like you could if it were...

Thanks! Good advice, all.

DS will be turning 4 next month and requested "no kids" at his party. We will have 2 grandmas, 1 grandpa, and a great-aunt. I would have also invited the 3 year old we have playdates with and her 6...

Moms of shy/clinging kids, what do you feel is best...4 yr old preschool at 2-3 mornings a week or waiting until kindergarten? I wonder if preschool would be a step in adjusting to being away from...

I'm curious what homeschoolers do when the subject matter is over their heads? For example, I wouldn't be able to explain advanced calculus, even though I took it in high school :eyeroll: Is this an...

I don't think you're overreacting at all. It would bother me too, for both reasons you stated. I would just park in a spot and get her from the line myself. I would hope their brisk form of dismissal...

DS is in the habit of asking "who bought this" in regard to toys, books, etc. The answer is almost always "your grandparents". He asks this several times a day and so does DD now, since she picked it...
