Baby-poll poll My daughter will be 4 in April and for the past 3-4 mnths, she`s eating like crazy! I`ll feed her breakfast @ 8 and she`ll ask for something else by 10, then lunch around 12 and again back to asking for `snacks` every hour on the hour. For snacks I give her a whole apple, large banana, grapes... cheese, yogurt and always with a glass of milk. Anyone else experience this? Her dr says she`s just growing, but that was said over 4 months ago. Like I said, she`s almost 4 and is 3ft 8in tall and 42lbs, she`s very big for her age. Please if anyone has any info/advise I`d appreciate it greatly!

I think she`s just growing too. She is really big for her age, and I checked her out on your page and she`s TOTALLY gorgeous! She should be in magazines, what`s her personality like? From her pictures she seems like she has a great one. Sounds like she`ll have the height to. If you wanna do it let me know and I can hook you up with some ppl. Where in Fl are you??

She is just growing I would say. You are giving her healthy snacks so she is not filling up on junk. I would check in with your doctor periodically if you feel she is getting too large and I am sure he would let you know when to be concerned. For now, I would just keep doing what you are doing as well as encouraging plenty of healthy exercise and she should be fine.

i agree-she`s prolly just growing...my friends 2yr old will have spurts where she won`t eat or will eat constantly.

Sounds pretty on track and normal to me. My daughter is 33 lbs and is only 2. Your doc is probably right she is just a growing girl. No worrys! :)

My son will be 4 in June. He eats constantly! He will eat a full dinner and an hour later want more. It is crazy! He is suppose to be going through a `growth spurt` too but it has lasted for months! Before this though, he would skip dinner b/c he wasn`t hungry. So i am assuming it comes in waves. The doc said it was normal. Oh and BTW, he is currently 43lbs and wearing boys smalls for clothing. (i don`t know his height, can`t remember right now).

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
