I know which diaper is better for the environment but which one is actually better for my baby.

Diaper Rash

Posted by: Sassoo

I have found Desitin does well when my baby gets diaper rash but what can I do to help prevent her from getting it in the first place.

Changing Diaper Battle

Posted by: Cassidy

It is a big battle every time I need to change my son's diaper, he starts to fuss, cry, and scream every time. What could be the problem, and advice for me?

Breast Feeding to Bottle Feeding

Posted by: Tarla

I have pretty much exclusively breastfed my son for the last 6 months. I need to get him switched over to the bottle within the next 6 weeks. I have no choice in the matter.

Any mom's have any tips on how I can make this easier on both of us, but especially him.

Bottle Feeding

Posted by: Genny

I don't think I would be comfortable breastfeeding and I will have to go back to work full time when my baby is about 6 weeks old.

I am catching a little flack and starting to feel guilty for my choice of bottle feeding, is it that bad?

Getting my home ready for the new baby

Posted by: Soontobemom

I don't want to forget anything and I want to be ahead of the game and have my house baby proofed before I give birth.

I am doing things that I know won't be necessary yet but I want to make sure they are in place well ahead of time. I have the little plastic things that go in all the electrical outlets. I have locks on drawers and cupboards that contain any cleaners and chemicals.

I don't have any stairs so I don't need to worry about a gate for them. No pets to worry about. What else should I be doing?

Stairs and Babies

Posted by: SweetMamma

My baby is only 3 weeks old right now so I do have a bit of time. But I am trying to get everything baby proofed so when she starts scooting and crawling I am prepared.

I need a gate for some stairs that go down to the basement. I have a gate that I am going to use to block off a hallway that leads to a bathroom and our bedroom but I don't think that type of gate is safe enough for stairs.

What kind of baby gate do I need or what special features make them good for stairways?

Keeping my 9 month old out of mischief

Posted by: Tandry

If I turn my back for a minute my son is in the bathroom, flushing the toilet, or unrolling the toilet paper.

I have told him no over and over but that doesn't seem to stop him. I don't feel spanking is the right answer in this case but he does need to learn to mind and know his limits. any ideas?
