I know it is not recommended, but has anyone ever found any other
(non-Avent) nipples out there that fit the Avent bottles? I have a ton of
Avent bottles that i received in various gift sets etc- I will get use out
of them to pump and store with the sealing disc, but Rachel will not ...

O.K, DD appears to be getting molars again.  She has had odd grumpy days,
but Saturday night was hell.  She took ages to get to sleep, and then woke
at 4.30 am and refused to go back to sleep.  After an hour, I relented and
put her in our bed.  I have tried this many times before, ...

I hate to post -another- message asking for help, but I cannot find
anything from the archives of this newsgroup or from any other source
that talks about the type of painful baby movements I've been
experiencing.  Please tell me if you've felt similar pains or if you

What time should a baby go down for bed for the night, at various agaes? I
am not saying "what time will every baby go down", I am asking what time is
the best time that they ideally should go down, at a particular
developmental stage?

I know there was a thread about this recently but my news server is only
letting me see new threads so I can't access it - sorry.
I've just been told that I have GD, I'm 28 wks.
I'm not freaking out (yet) but should I be?

Hi Everyone.  I have a beautiful 14 mo. old little boy.  This newsgroup
helped me through MANY issues and questions about my first pregnancy!
I have an older brother and sister-in-law that tried to get pregnant for
about 4 years before giving up (yes, they went through all of the ...

Yesterday I got a call from my dr. office saying I have a bladder infection!
Ugh, just what I wanted to hear. The weird thing about it is that I don't
really have any symptoms of one except that my urine has a really "strong"
smell to it. I have had this for quite some time probably ...

We have 4 dogs.  Before our baby came along they were the babies.  I always
talked about them, gave them lots of love, etc.  Now that the baby is here,
I have no interest in them.  It's not that I'm too busy w/ the baby to be
able to spend time w/ the dogs; I just have no genuine ...

We've finally put our online photo album together so we have all of our
favorite pics from the beginning to the most recent we've taken for
everyones viewing pleasure.

My wife is just finished her 13th week and the lapbelt portion of the
seatbelt in the car has gotten a bit uncomfortable.  Is there any way
to make this belt any more comfortable, because her current solution
of creating some slack in the device is not very safe.

I am willing to get anyone around Chicago pregnant.  Just email me at

I went for a (free) weekend visit to the women's center at the hospital I
gave birth at to see the lactation consultant- I just had a few questions to
ask about basically etc. She had just finished up with a breastfeeding
class, and said she wished I had gotten there earlier to talk ...

Hey Amy and the other posters from NZ, I just read that you guys got a
big winter storm!  So, I guess it's not raining anymore (that is, if you
are in the affected area)!  :-)  I hope everyone's OK, though - sounds
like it was a bit nasty what with blowing some roofs off and all.

My baby is 5 mos (3 mos adjusted age).  She keeps herself entertained very
well when I put her on the floor with all of her toys.  My question is:  Is
there such a thing as a baby playing by themself too much?  There isn't a
whole lot that we both can do together right now, but that ...
