We've been wiping and gently dabbing the area around his eyes with a wet wash cloth, but have noticed that scabs (or dry patches) are forming all around his eye. Im concerned and wonder if there is something I might be able to try at home before taking him into the vet, where they might suggest the same thing for a whole lotta money, lol. Thanks!

Ive found myself waking up physically from dreams about work latley and not being able to mentally get out of the dream state.... I work at a courthouse, so my job is pretty stressfull and I hear a lot of really crazy stuff. For instance, I'll be sleeping away and all of a sudden, get up out of bed, dreaming that I need to go pull a file or get something, or that Im in court and the judge has directed me to do something...I cant wake up out of the dream, even though I totally know that Im dreaming...its so weird. I get so confused on where I am and what is going on...my husband often has to comfort me because Im freaking out in my sleep- sweating, crying, breathing hard...Is this a sleep anxiety attack or just a night mare? Im trying to decide what I need to do about this so that I can enjoy sleeping again :) Oh and I love my job, so I really need to learn how to cope with this! Thanks!

My daycare provider recently told me that my 17 month old son bit another girl in his daycare...The daycare provider showed me the mark on the girls skin and it made me so concerned....We told our son that he doesnt use his teeth on people (we pointed to his teeth and told him this) and he seemed to understand at the moment because he got very upset...but how do I get through to him so that he understands in the long run? Any ideas? This is the first dicipline concern I've had with him!

I send my son to daycare full time and I need new lunch ideas....He has been loving mac & cheese and chicken fingers, fruit cups and applesauce, cheese and crackers...Im looking for new ideas. I tried quesadillas and he didnt like them at first try- I'll probably try again with that one....but I need a few new ideas, stuff I can just throw together for him every morning...any ideas? He's a big eater :)

Sooo, I am preparing to add rice cereal to my son's diet when he is 4 months old as recomended by his pediatrician (he is 13 weeks now). If he normally takes a 4oz bottle of formula before bedtime, how much rice cereal should I try giving him? I've been told to not put it in his bottle, so do I mix 4oz of formula and a scoop of rice, mix it, put it in a bowl and feed him by a spoon or what? Im a first time mommy here, if ya hadnt guessed :)

I have a pair of Elan Parabolic Ski's (SCX Mono it says on them as well). I used them a few times, bought them new in 1999. I havent skied since, so I have no idea what they are worth. They have 'Titanium' bindings and they are in good shape, no scratches or dings. They say 163 on them, which Im guessing is the size. (Im a 5ft female). I also have poles to match. Im looking to sell them and want to get a good price for them but want to be fair as well...Anyone know enough about skiis to give me an idea on how much they are worth?

I have a kitten who is 11 weeks old. She is litter box trained, but Im pregnant and hate having a litterbox- not only are they stinky but its also dangerous for me to be around while pregnant. We got her shots and she's been curious about going outside, so we leave her out in the back yard and she hangs out with the dog while we are at work. Its been great so far, but every time she comes back inside, she goes straight for the litterbox to go potty. We've tried putting the litter box outside, and she will use it then- but then when she comes in at night, she doesnt ask to go out, she just pees inside...Any suggestions? We'd love to have an indoor/outdoor cat- just like our dog! I potty trained the dog, but it seemed a lot easier, cats are so stubbron!

Im 32 weeks pregnant and for the last few weeks Ive been in tremendous pain right under my right breast. I went to my regular check up yesterday and doc said it may be gallstones. She said if it is, they wont perform a surgery until after I deliver (thank God thats only 8 more weeks!). She put me on Vicodin (which i wont take, Im worried about the affect on my baby) and said to cut down on Fatty foods. Anyone else had gallstones? What symptoms did you have? Were you able to find any relief? Any suggestions for me? I've never been in this much pain....Thanks!

So my best friend just asked me to be her matron of honor in her august wedding. I am almost 19 weeks pregnant and due 3 weeks before her wedding. How should I try on dresses? This is my first baby and Im showing for sure- I know that in my wedding dress from Davids I was a size 6 and that was 6 months ago...Should I get a size 8 and hope it fits after the baby?There is really no way for me to try on dresses with the belly and the boobs bigger than normal!LOL! Im not sure I can get a dress altered in 3 weeks during that time of the year!

How do you become an ultrasound tech? How many years of schooling do you have to go through? Whats the pay like out of school?

Im 15 weeks pregnant and my OB suggested adding a DHA supplement to my prenatal vitamins. The samples she gave me were the brand Enfamil, which I can find online- but no where in the stores. Does anyone know where to find this brand, or another good type of DHA? Thanks!

Im 14 weeks pregnant...If we have a girl we are torn between these two names....Which one do you vote for? Jane will be the middle name- as it is my grandmothers middle name (plus its classic and timeless!)

Gracie Jane

Meliah Jane ( sounds like Mah-Lee-ah)

Whats your vote?

So I'm 27 years old and 9 weeks pregnant with my first child. I work in a high paced Corporate office where I'm on my feet alot. My current footwear of 2 1/2 inch heeled boots and pumps are starting to make my feet tired within an hour of wearing them. I cant imagine what it will feel like in a few months! My question is..Im 5'0 and all my pants fit me to wear heels with them (So my pants will be too long if I wear flats), and Im guessing my maternity pants will be the same length. Any suggestions as to comfy shoes to buy that are cute and professional? Thanks!!!

Im 9 weeks pregnant and just now starting to crave certain foods....What are you craving? How far along are you?

My cravings so far are:

Apples and Carmel dipping sauce (Low-fat!)

Chewy Spree Candies (not so low fat!)

Yogurt with Granola

Sparkling Cider Cranberry flavored

Its so hard to eat right, when my cravings are SOOO sweet! I've never had a sweet tooth before! At least the yogurt is good for me! LOL!

Hey there, Im 27 and had my navel peirced in two spots. I found out I am pregnant and took the jewelry out. Is there any way to heal the holes or will they be there forever? They are just so ugly...lol. I've had them for 10 years, so I'm guessing I'm scarred for life...Any suggestions?

Is this normal? Theres no bumps or rash, and I am using cocoa butter...could it be from that?

What symptoms are you experiencing if any? I'm 8 weeks preggers and just wanted to see if anyone is feeling the same way I am...Im 5'0 and 115lbs and this is my first pregnancy. I have litteraly no sickness and im just really tired all the time. I feel really bloated all the time, specially after I eat and my breasts are only tender at night...Anyone else this lucky?

So I sold my banshee a couple years ago (long story)...My question is...How much should I sell these three things (package price) for...I cant remember how much I paid for them back in 2005...They were worn probably 3 times.

1) Shift recon over the boot pants, size 28

2) HJC CS-X2 Helmet, silver and black size small

3) Fly 303 Silver gloves, size youth Large

I want to put them up for sale on my work bullitan board- and I want to be fair in the asking price....what is this stuff going for these days? I think it'd be a great xmas gift for someone's kid.(Im a shorty!) Thanks!!

YAY! I tested positive last week.... My last period started on October 7th...Does that make me 7 or 8 weeks pregnant? I have my first appt in two weeks, but Im just curious and every pregnancy calendar website gives me a different answer, either 7 or 8...which is it?

A co-worker of mine turns 27 next wednesday and we'd like to decorate for her and embarrass her a little too! :) We're getting a cake, and would like to do a theme- any ideas? She did a Hawaiian theme for my birthday so we can't do that...and it has to be 'workplace appropriate', blah...
