I know many of you lovely ladies are from USA but I am still going to ask this question hoping to get an answer!!! I am from Toronto, Ontario...and with Mother's Day coming up I am looking to buy an ink pad called 'Baby's Touch'. It's for use on infants/toddlers and it comes off so easily. Maybe it can be purchased at Wal*Mart...If anyone knows where you can buy it please let me know!!!! Happy Mother's Day to all of you and have a great weekend!!! Please anwser on my profile!! :)

Did anyones babies walk or talk late?? I would love to hear stories..how late..and why (if you know). My first experienced developmental depays because of a brain bleed at birth. Now everything with my second is so much diffrent..it's a whole new experience because he's doing things so much faster than his older brother! i'm just in awe of everything. He rolled over at 13 weeks! and it was from his back to tummy...which i hear it it is usually the other way first. Hes now 4 months old and rolling all over the place. I cant wait to see him crawling around with his brother :)

Brodys Mommy - I'm with you! To count the time my son has rolled, crawled or walked off edges...usually under Dad's watch. Once when he was sleeping at my mom's house was it my fault. He was six months and crawling. He laid down for a nap on my mom's bed and I left the room. I usually hear him wake up cause he would cry. Nope, he woke up, crawled off the bed which did have pillows on the floor. I just heard a thud and then crying. He was fine, it wasn't a far drop to the pillows but it did scare me. He did go off the changing table at four months and down the stairs at six months because hubby turned around. No bruises or scrapes but Hubby didn't luck out of a few punches. HAHA! Why am I having another with this man!

Ladies I'm sure you ALREADY know this but I just thought I should let you ladies you know this..... My son will be five months on Friday and he's been rolling like crazy!!! A couple of hrs ago I was making Brody's bottle and he was laying in the bed (like the middle of the bed by the wall, NOWHERE near the edge) I kept turning around...checking on him. Well I turned away for literally 30seconds or an blink of an eye and he was on the edge of the bed!!!!! If I didnt turn around to check on him again I dont even want to think about what couldve happen. I wasnt being irresponsible, I was like 3ft away. He's been a VERY active baby since the day he was born. I dont know what I would do if something happen to him. :-/ LADIES PLEASE KEEP A GOOD EYE ON YOUR BABY...EVERY SECONDS COUNTS

I def would toss out the paci's too, then they cant give her one but as far as it causing a bad latch I disagree ~ some babies learn to latch better with a soother, my first did. He didnt know how to suck and the nurses suggested the paci because his tongue wasnt in the right position for latching and it was a miracle, the paci really worked :) He did perfectly so the latching issues could be for another reason. ((()))

SherB - I would throw them all away! My son never took them either. He's breastfeed and didn't like the 'artifical' nipple. If there isn't any pacifiers around then MIL can't try shoving it in. If she asks for one then tell her you didn't see the purpose of them since she doesn't like them. It's funny, I do have a couple. They ended up in my son's toy box. He's 18months now and will come across it. He pops it in his mouth and blows shooting it into the air. He and I have a good laugh over it when he does it. It's now a toy. He doesn't suck on it for sleep or even walking around during the day.

Birth story finally posted! Sorry so winded.

My 6 year did not talk much either but he made his own words for things that he could not say. He could not say words with 2 consonants together like stir so he would say turney. Pediatrician wanted him evaluated at 3 year and he needed some speech therapy. He has been going for the last years during school time. His speech is so much better. Just keep an eye on it. Early intervention is the best. He will not need speech after this year.

my husband didn't speak at 3 yrs so they took him to get checked out because they thought maybe he was mentally challenged or something else... turned out he was a genious and didn't need to talk to get what he wanted. they stopped giving him stuff and he started talking. Till this day he doesn't talk much and is extremely smart.

Austinsmommy- my eldest didn't speak until he was about a year and a half. he said 'I like that' and now its been hard to get him to stop talking...lol (10 now)

Dizzydays-YES! get a second opinion! I don't know about the other ladies here but to me I would think he should be holding down more and gaining more. Was he a preemie? I can only go by my experience but my son is one month old today and is eating between 3 and 4 oz and has already gained 1lbs 6 oz. Maybe its just a case of each child is different, but I believe a second opinion is warrented here.

dizzydayz - 1025 days ago.
my son is a month old and he only drinks 2 oz every three hours and sometimes doesnt want to drink that i burb him every oz usually less than that i burb him and he spits up everytime he went to the doctor 2 days ago and he only weighs 5lbs 6 oz when i brought him home he weighed 5lbs 4 oz and that was 2 weeks ago and the doctor is not worried should i get a 2nd opinion

austinsmummy - 1027 days ago.
mari- thank you!..Glad to know that its normal. I was just starting to worry, i see on here some one year olds that are saying tons of words and my little guy doesnt say anything! But your right he will do it when hes ready!

austinsmummy - 1027 days ago.
My son just turned 13 months...He still isnt saying any actually words. He babbles ALOT and he knows what alot of things are, kitty, fan, nose, eye, juice, different toys etc. but just doesnt say them!..He doesnt even say mama or dada and ive been trying to teach him mama for as long as i can remember! ...He will point at me when is asked 'wheres mama?'

what is the difference between a epiduraal and a spinal anaesthetics?i am going for a cesar on 18/5/09,

Mrs.jandrews - 1035 days ago.
My son seems to have a skin irratation. It looks like acne but it's not...it small bumps that look like over dried skin and it's hard to notice as it's the sames as his skin colour...not sure if it's eczema. Could it be the Baby Soft laundry soap I started using. He is just 4mths and 3 weeks so he hasn't had any food yet and I still only bf him. Any comments would help me figure this out...I know one thing I will be doing tomorrow...switching his laundry soap! What kind of baby detergent is the best for sensitive skin? Thanks so much ladies!

Bringing my son home from the nicu today

Bri - 1044 days ago.
MIchelle, this sounds a lot like my sister's husband's ex. She got pregnant thinking to hold onto him. It didn't. They broke up and he met my sister. They got married and now have three children together. She tries to use her son against them. It's hard, they are in the marines so they are everywhere but where his son is. He sends love and money and tries to be civil with her but unfortunately, his son is a little brat now. He's older and thinks Dad is off having his other life. I blame it all on his mom. She won't let him come visit even when they are stationed in the states. She's a witch and uses them. I guess, I don't have much advice except try to be patient. You know your fiance is doing what he can. He will always love his son but you are both starting a new family as well. Hopefully his son can be a part of it and his mom will come to accept it.

Ok guys please dont take this the wrong way, i need to vent and i need advice. Im having my first child this september(YAY) and my fiance and i are ecstatic. Except heres whats bothering me... He has a son with another woman(doesnt bother me, i love his son) that lives in another state. She is quite obnoxious and has that 'mother of your child' syndrome where she thinks that my fiance should constantly be at her mercy and be her little b*$tch if you dont mind me saying, i apologize. And i tell him, its none of my business but you deal with her for your son, the end. Ok he deals and all that. Still no problem. But she found out about my pregnancy and FLIPPED. And she was saying how he was gonna forget his son and what not. I told him shes not really worried about that(she knows he cares about his son, and she parades his son around her boyfriend anyway) and that im sure she just wants to assert her control over him to make sure its still there. She wanted to be like 'haha im still important'. I know i sound a little dramatic, but trust me its no exaggeration. And what did he do... he babied her! He was all ohhh dont worry blah blah a MILLION times. I said to him, ok i understand, but tell her once and other than that its not her business what we do and i dont have to answer to her about this and neither do you. I felt like he was trying to justify why were keeping the baby! I feel hurt, like he should be like listen i love her and shes having my kid and i love my son too so dont worry. the end. But nooo... and what hurt, is that he had to throw in the well you know i wont forget him hes always my son and hes my first born. WTF. Why should that matter? Like me and my child arent as important cause we're number 2? Second best? Our child and his son should be equal, and she should not matter. This just hurt my feelings : ( Comments anyone?
