Help for Introducing Formula Milk
I eager to introduce formula milk for my baby ( 5 & 1/2 month old). This is because i will start my job when she is six.

Hiccup chatter!
I love the old wives tales that pop up while a newborn is having their umpteenth episode of hiccups! Rest assured that hiccups are not bad for your baby’s heart or anything else. No need for sugar water either. Just let them be and their frequency will taper off pretty quickly. While we are on the subject, how about sharing your favorite remedies for hiccups in adults? I’d love to hear some of the creative ways people banish them!
Here’s a quick hiccup update! According to a new (small) study, they may serve a purpose in b… -

Dry patch on baby's face – HELP!
My LO has had a small patch of bumpy dry skin on her cheek since birth – almost 12mo now. Her pediatrician said it could be baby acne or a mild splotch of eczema. Thoughts? Treatment options? It’s not especially noticeable or troublesome but if something can be done to clear it up, I’d like to.
Hi Roxanne! Eczema (aka Atopic Dermatitis) is very common in children. Baby acne, while very common… -
Non-stop crying
My two month old baby girl cry’s all the time. When she first gets up she’s happy and full of smiles but about an hour or two after that the crying starts and will literally last until night time. She doesn’t nap much during the day because she fights sleep so hard and I know that could be the cause of some of her crying but I wouldn’t think it could be the whole problem. This has been going for over a month now and she’s only two months old. I don’t know what to do and it’s completely aggravating at this point. Her formula has been changed three times already and that hasn’t helped. I’m just not sure what to do.
Try babies magic tea. I have been using this formula that’s organic for my 8 weeks old LO and… -

We have four boys. The oldest had a stomach bug Tuesday, then the two middle ones on Friday. The baby (21months) and I got it today. How on earth can we break this cycle? I am so worn out from washing laundry and catching vomit.

All Car Seats are NOT created equal – but is price really the determining factor?
