I have a almost 21 month old daughter, we live in canada so it is cold out and not a lot of snow, she seems to be very board, I have try ed a lot of activities coloring, different crafts, she still is to young for a lot of that. I have done puzzles, shape sorters, roll play, dancing to music, you name it. So if you have any ideas that would be great.

My daughter seems to be board with some of are act, I am just looking for ideas thank you

My mother in-law insist that I am over feeding my 14 month old daughter, I personally don't think so she is happy with what I feed her and gobbles it all up here is an example of what I feed her

BK: 6oz of milk 1/2 piece of toast with half banana(730am)

1030am 4oz of milk

1130am 6oz milk, some fruit 1/2 banana or 1 strawberry, cottage cheese about 1 tbsp, 2 eggs scrambled (just one example of a nor mall lunch for her

330pm 4oz juice diluted

500-530pm 6oz of milk 1 tbsp of veggies, 2 tbsp meat, 1 small potato (just one example of a supper she would eat) also with 1/2 banana or other fruit

I know she drinks a lot of milk but she loves her milk, and really does not care for juice

any serious in-put wonted nasty comments and stupid answers keep to your self as I have seen on other questions, thank you all in advanced

I was just looking for some ideas of fun things I could do with my 14 month old daughter for in side and out, we go to the park a lot, nature walks, bike rides, sand box swimming ect, but in side it is a struggle because she really does not play with toys that much or like the tv, which I don't mind, we play with blocks, tupperware, hide ans seek books ect if anyone has any other suggestions that would be great thank you all in advanced

I have an eight month old daughter, and there is so many different opions on how much to feed, yes I know to go by my baby is the best answer, but some people think I feed her too much while others think I feed her too little, so I am just looking for examples on how much others feed there baby's ie 3 TBSP of meat and 2 of vegetables something like that and routines ie 700 am breastfeed, 800 cereal thank you to all in advanced

My daughter is 6 months old, and I am making her baby food, my mother in law said I could put in a little brown sugar for flavor with her squash, sweet potato ETC, does any one know of any reason why I can not put in a little amount of brown sugar when making her baby food, she does not really care for veggies at all, but loves fruit bec it is sweeter, she is breastfeed and is use to the sweet tast I guesss

I was looking for some cute ideas for halloween for my four month old daughter, if anyone has any ideas please I would love to hear them

I was just wondering do baby's weight gain slow down a little when you introduce solids to them or does it make them gain more weight and faster. I know this sounds like a stupid question but it is just to prove something to my mother in law, who thinks that my daughter is to big and thinks by giving her rice cereal at 5 months is going to get her even bigger faster, I have talked to my doctor and she recommend me to give her cereal now, and says she is not to big just a lot longer then most baby's her age, so anyways in general does giving solids slow down weight gain or in-cress it faster?

My four month old daughter who is totally breastfeed is only having a bowel movement every 4 days, by this time she is blooded and cramps, has a lot of gas and very fussy. is it normal for her to only be going every 4 days or could this indicate a bowl problem, I know she is obvious having problems but I was just wondering how often other breastfeed baby's are normally going?

it also seems to me that she sleeps a lot NO I AM NOT COM PLANING, but like I said she is breastfeed and she sleeps through the night 11 hours 730pm until 630am-700am eats and is back to sleep at 900am she then sleeps until 1100 and is up for another 1 1/2 - 2h and is back a sleep again for an hour I just do not remember my son ever sleeping this much, he as well sleep-ed through the night but stayed up for longer periods of time during the day.

My four year old son has had a hard time excepting the arrival of my daughter who is now 4 months old, his behavior is totally out of control at home and is getting bad at school, which he just started jk, I have tried everything I give him one on one, we have one day a week to go out just myself and him, and still it is not good enough, I involve him with the baby were he can ect nothing seems to be working, he does not listen to me he takes a lot of his anger out on me, the last past week the baby has been very fussy and has taken a lot of my time, every time I go to do something with him she screams, so this week has gotten a lot worse with his behavior. Please if any one has any advice on how I can get my son back, the way he was before the baby arrived and to deal with his behavior I would greatly appreciate it

I was wondering if anyone knows, when a baby has a lot of gas does this make them feel as though they are hungry causing them to eat more, maybe even over eat, or does it cause them not to eat as much.

MY mother in-law thinks I am over feeding my daughter, but I feed her on demand, cause she is breastfeed every 3-4 hours she is 4 months old and yes she is a little bigger than some four month old baby's I see, but like I said I only feed her every 3-4 hours, bum is dry, I make sure she is not to hot or cold, I hold her, do exercises to get gas out you name it put her to sleep ect and the only thing that stops her crying is because she won ts to eat, so all I wont to know if she is gassy can this cause her to feel hungry?

My daughter is 31/2 months and is sleeping a lot she has only been staying awake for an hour at a time, she normally will be a wake for 2 1/2 hours at a time or more, I think she may be going through a growth spirt, the only thing is she is eating less than normal, she has no fever or seems to be ill, is it possible for her to be going through a growth spirt even knowing she is not wonting to eat more

My daughter weighed 7pounds and 2 ounces at birth, she naw is 2 months old, and she weighs 12 pounds all ready, she is 23 inches and some long and totly breast feed, people are always saying that she is big for her age is this an ok weight or should I be concern?

My son may have adhd, I do not like the idea of putting him on medication, I have heard of changing a child diet may help, does anyone know of foods to keep out of his diet that may help or adding something to his diet that also could help, my son is four years old and does have many almost all the symptoms of hyper active adhd, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated thank you
