I got the arch of my foot tattooed 4 days ago. My artist had me keep it wrapped, changing every 3-4 hrs in saran wrap for the 1st 4 days. Now I've 'graduated' to aquaphor ointment but idk if I should cover it to sleep? I'm afraid a sock will stick, the ointment dry, & color get pulled out. Also I don't know how to go to work tomorrow...socks, no socks, wrapped up(I wear slip on flats to work)??

I delivered via c section exactly 3 months ago. In the hospital I had issues & actually had blisters on my incision but at my 2 week check up, my scar looked beautiful! It was fading & I haven't had issues.3 weeks ago I started spotting & having mild pain on my incision. I just looked at it tonight & the scar itself is so Rex its almost purple!!!!!

My daughter woke up this morning coughing like her allergies were acting up so I gave her Claritin. Then she got worse through the day so we gave her some Benadryl tonight. After we realized she had a fever of 101, so I gave her Motrin. Of course all the Children's forms. She has since broke her fever but I was just wondering. I have a 11 week old that I really don't want to catch whatever it is she has. :(

My son is on Enfamil Gentlease with added cereal & I just recently realized when I mix his bottles, its more than I thought. I add 5oz of water, 2&1/2 scoops of formula & his tbsp of cereal....once its mixed its closer to 5&1/2 - 6oz!!!!!! I guess my question is, is my baby eating a 5oz bottle or what? And does this seem to be a lot for a 3 month old? (He is on a pretty good schedule & eats 5 bottles a day)

And since I know people will say something, he gets added cereal due to severe acid reflux, recommended by the Pediatric GI.

My son is scheduled for a barium swallow test on Friday & I was wondering if anyone else experienced this with an infant?

A little background; he had an ultrasound that was positive for pyloric stenosis at 5 weeks, same day we sat in the ER, he was prepped for surgery & a 2nd ultrasound was negative so surgery cancelled. He was put on Zantac & cereal added to bottles. About 4 weeks later ALL symptoms returned & he was sent to a pedi GI. This Dr raised his dose of Zantac & ordered the test to be sure there is nothing going on. He is gaining weight appropriately just spitting up, sometimes severe & really fussy when he does.

My son is 10 weeks & we use Avent bottles. He gets cereal in every bottle due to reflux & up till now we have had to cut the nipples so he could eat. I guess from washing them, the holes are slowly getting bigger. This morning I tried a #2 medium flow meant for 1-3 months as he was drowning in formula using a cut one & he was able to drink fine. So I've decided to replace them with all new uncut nipples but I'm undecided on if I should get all #2s or get @3s meant for 3months+ since he will be 3 months soon. I'm posting this bc its going to cost A LOT to replace all 12

Ok so my son has reflux so he's had cereal in his bottles since about 6wks. He suffers from constipation from the cereal so our pedi suggested giving him diluted juice. He's now spitting up more & more fussy. I'm thinking the acid in the juice hurts him so today I gave him plain water instead. He gets a total of 2oz within 24hrs. Anyone else experience this? Aside from adding Karo to his bottles, any suggestions for the constipation? Oh & he's on Gentlease, having better results with this than Enfamil Premium, AR & Nutramigen.

I had my section on Oct 3rd. I had my post partum bleeding then a period. Now Im having another period just 2 weeks later. I am taking birth control pills too.

My son is 9 weeks & weighs 11lb11oz. He's drinking 4oz bottles 6x a day, he has himself on a schedule. After some bottles he acts like he's still hungry then calms down after just a few minutes. I've offered him 5oz before & he will drink it but seems to spit it all up afterwards. Oh & he also is on Zantac for reflux.

My son is 9 weeks & weighs 11lbs 11oz. He gets 3/4ml twice daily. How much does your child weigh & how much Zantac do they get?

My son has been bounced back & forth on formulas before being diagnosed with acid reflux and put on Zantac with cereal in all bottles. He's on Enfamil Gentlease. He's only had dirty. diapers every other day & he's been screaming all day, unable to sleep soundly due to being constipated. What can I do as he's miserable!!!!

What's your child's schedule like? My son has really started on a schedule in the last 2 weeks or so. He has to be on a schedule when I go back to work & he's at my sitters house so were just starting it now.

Also how much formula & how often does your baby eat? Mine is 8 weeks & eats 4oz + 2tsp of cereal, due to acid reflux, 5-6 times a day.

I want to get a tattoo to represent my two kiddos but do NOT want names or their birthdates. I'm sorry, I just don't care for name tats. I have a 3 yr old girl & 2 month old boy.

Okay, a little background... 1 week after my last period I began having some lower abdominal pains. Lasted for 2 weeks then doctors ruled out out appendicitis & determined by ultrasound I have a 'large functional cyst' on my left ovary. Now I am 5 days late, took a home pregnancy test & got a positive result. I called the drs office & I'm going for HCG levels tomorrow & then again 2 days after. If that's ok, they want me back in 2-3 weeks for my 1st visit with an ultrasound. I have a 2 1/2 yr old & while it was a difficult pregnancy, I had no problems until well after 14 weeks.
