I am very worried that we are/have spoilt our now 7 month old baby
boy. We are first time parents (41 and 38).
When we had our boy, we and everyone noticed immediately how alert and
curious he was from birth, so we 'showed him everything around him'.

I've had them under one arm for months now.  My midwife said it's to do with
the milk ducts.  Can any one out there give me some more information -
especially if there is something I can do to make them go away.
Cheers

Hi all...
At what point should you start looking for a doula? I'm
16 weeks, due at the end of July and live in Atlanta
(if that makes a difference).  It seems kind of early

Hi all, sorry this is OT but I remember vaguely a thread last year

pain going down my leg.  From what I've researched on my own, it
sounds like sciatica from the baby's position on a nerve and that it's
relatively normal later in pregnancy.  (I'm 26 weeks)

I was wondering if some of you could help me!!  We had a name picked out
(Jacob Alexander) and DH doesn't like it any more (because Jacob was #1 name
in US last year).
If it would help we also like the name William Patrick.   We obviously like

Hi. I am really worried about my 2 kids. They have just come down with a
rash with bad swelling. I have never seen this before. I do not think it
is a food allergy. I hope someone can help me. I took a picture:

This is weird. For 2 weeks now I have been having a problem with my right
leg going numb from the hip joint to a few inches above my knee. At first, I
didn't realize it was happening until I was out shopping and I slapped my
hip (sort of a fidgety, restless gesture) and realized ...

I am actually 25 weeks, 3 days. My visits have gotten a bit off, I used to
go at exactly the month by month mark on Mondays, but I had my checkup
today.
My blood pressure has changed slightly, it is up a little but but as far as

Sorry to be a pest but I think it was Jill that said that she lived
really close to Concord Mills.  Do you think you could maybe email me
a list of baby/kids related stores that are worth going to?  I think I
may be ready to venture out next week.

Hi gang,
I remember sometime back coming across a website that sold a little spray
attachment for your toilet that you can use to clean off soiled diapers
instead of dunking them. Does anyone here have one of these? Does it work
