I am 44 with 16 m DS. We are having typical issues..how is everyone else? Orisa

Okay, so Jacob fell down the stairs last Saturday. Eeeek. Yes, I was terrified, but he seemed okay. No tears, after the tears from the actual fall. Until yesterday. He was very fussy and clingy. But I blamed teething. Then this morning when I was dressing him for the sitter, he cried owie owie owie...

I can't believe that the LO is going to be 2 a week from Wednesday! Is it time to move over? Anyone else with me????

Hi ladies, I am usually found on the december 2007 playgroup board. I have a son who is 15 months old and he is still eating mostly babyfood. I dont think he has difficulty swallowing or chewing (he just got 4 molars). It seems more that he just refuses to try new foods. So I was wondering if...

Anyone else's LO suddenly becoming picky? I'm not sure if it's because he's teething 4 eye teeth at once or because he's almost 2, but his lousy appetite is driving me crazy! My older DS never went through this phase...any thoughts?

It's only February. When will spring get here? Of course, last spring we dealt with Roseola... but I've had it with these fevers! Be gone! It wouldn't be so bad if K didn't have all the seizures...I'm a wreck...waahhh...

...of course, she qualified. Now, let me be more clear. She was 25% deficient in two areas, speech and then they all it "cognitive communication". So, cognitive communication is a long name for "Mimi doesn't listen well". LOL She did not follow their instructions/directions all of the time,...

Anyone else??? Nothing like cleaning up mac and cheese while the LO is still throwing it down...ON YOUR HEAD! Makes me wish I had a dog....sigh.... I'm sure it's just another phase...hoping that it doesn't last too much longer :rolleyes:

What will they say about my little precious? LOLOLOL She'll go t the ENT in March to check the fluid thing, but I'm really nervous now that they are actually coming out. T2, what about you? Are they coming to your house?

K suffered her third febrile seizure. I was SO praying that we were done. It's been almost a year since her last one. The ER doctor had absolutely NO bedside manner. His prognosis was dark and unhappy. I was so mad. I spoke to my pediatrician and she assured me that that guy was an a$$. ...

I've mostly been lurking here, but wanted to say goodbye. DD turned 2 today. I'm still in a bit of denial. ;-) I'll likely lurk for a bit, but overall my time online has been decreasing. More incredibly, #2 due in less than 10 weeks. How can that be? Wishing you all the best, -Tia

Well, I had to take Mimi to the dr. this AM, she had a high fever over the weekend, she has an upper respiratory infection and an ear infection.... so.... we are off to the ENT and speech therapy. Anyhow, I get home and we are just in the door, and my little Monster is saying something that I...

We are having a very hard time understanding you & me. K thinks she is you and whoever she is talking to is me. Do you know how hard it is to explain this? I am usually thoroughly confused by the end myself! LOL Anyone try to explain this. I tried to say Kailey is me and mommy is you, but...

Well, Little Miss No-Words (she does say things but she is quite selective on what she says, repeats, etc...she'd rather babble gobbledy-gook all day long...not a Chatty Kathy, let's say that.... decided to come to me today, grab at her diaper, and tell me, "I poop." I've never been happier to...

Smushings is what I say to my LO when she does this thing with my face...she like rubs her entire face all over my face, sorta like a kiss, but sorta like a hug all mixed into one. Do you have any special names for your LO's attempts at lovings? Or other things?...LOL.

Hi girls. This could be a long post, but I'm wondering about some things. I plan on asking the pedi at her 24 month appt, or sooner if she winds up sick before then. I think my baby has very bad allergies. When she goes outside, she has an allergy attack (eyes red, watery, runny nose,...

I am lucky that the LO will sit in the shopping cart at all, given the amount of times I have seen others being carried around while mom or dad tries to push the cart at the same time. That being said, he will try to stand up even though he is strapped in...and often succeeds!!!!!!!!!!!! This...

Just a thought from my other post: If you had to name yourself "Queen ______", what would it be of? I am Bleach Queen. I use bleach for everything possible. I have an entire drawer of clothes that I only wear to clean, because they have bleach stains on them.

My Little One of Nearly Zero Words was overheard yesterday by myself dropping the handle of a pull toy on the ground and saying "sh" "sh" "sh" over and over. I clearly watched her actions to see if she'd put her finger to her teeth as in "shhhh, be quiet". Nothing. Which leads me down the only...

sooooo.... My DD does the "Take Along Tantrum". Directions: Throw a giant hissy fit. When Mom looks the other way or goes to another room (how dare she)...follow her there...position self on floor preferably under her feet (or within a close proximity), and continue said tantrum until...

Oh, my complete and utter angel is starting to spread her wings...and say NO!...and completely defy whatever mommy asks. Sigh. Most times I just leave her have her tantrum. Distraction just seems to get her madder. (I must find better distraction methods! :tongue: ) When she's quiet I ask...

I just wanted to take a minute to wish all of you and your families a very Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Happy Kwanzaa or whatever else you choose to celebrate at this time of year! Hugs, Bash

Ok so its been a lil over a year and a half. We have used no birthcontroll methods. So I was thinking my lil angel was gonna be an only child. WELL...yesterday I got a bfp!! Natural...omg!!!!! I am not sure how far I am because my cycles are so messed up. I am thinking I am only 5 weeks or...

:tongue: My little Mimi had pneumonia last week...after going to the doc's for an ear infection and of course, higher than high (104) fever, she was put on Amox. But she seemed to get worse, not better, so back to the doc's again (I swear he can retire on my copays, I'm constantly bringing them...
