I am a young mommy but my love for my daughter is age-less. When i got pregnant i read numerous books and ask my doctor question after question. Even know I do research before doing anything to my Rose bud who is 5 months right now. <3 and after 2am my answers usually dont reflect my true beliefs...im just screwing aroung lol Some say it over doing it but i want whats best for her and if that means taking a lot of questions to ask her pediatrician and then comparing his answers to other sources then so be it. :) Ihave advice on a few other subjects. Religion, Politics, Love,Cooking. Basically anything I know I will give advice about. If you don't like my advice, you can simply press the thumbs down and not have to see it. I try to be as nice as I can but i am a blunt person so don't get offended. :)

  • COMMUNITY SERVICE FORGED HOURS?

    Ok I have 52 hours due on the first. I have done about 30 of them and I feel I won't be able to finish. I've done them at a few places and one place doesn't keep a log. Could I forge the few hours I don't finish and not get caught?

    I'm not on probation and its court ordered from the Municipal Court. Do they check up on those place? The place for sure doesnt have a log because when I did I did it there she just signed my paper and sent me to put up flyers.

    Please help idk what to do.

  • How do I help my daughter learn to crawl?

    My daughter is 7 months and all the parenting magazines say that by that age a 7 month old should be able to push herself around while on her tummy with her feet and then slowly learn to crawl. But my daughter has been able to turn off her belly since she was 1 month old so by now she has mastered it and when ever I put her on her tummy she turns almost instantly. I try to keep her her on her tummy but she gets mad and if I don't let her turn she will start to cry.

    So how do I keep her on her stomach? Did anyone else have this problem?

    And even if its too early for her to start learning I would rather know how to handle this for the future.

    Thank You :)

  • Should I let my 6 month old daughter sleep so early?

    She is usually really sleepy and gets cranky by 6-6:30pm If she had a late afternoon nap I try to entertain her till about 7-7:30pm But sometime I put her down for a nap close to 5pm and she stay asleep. Should I wake her up?

    Also every other day is bath night so she goes to sleep after her bath which is usually around 8pm sometime 9pm.

    But on normal days with no bath and her last nap was at 2pm she is really fussy by 6:30pm so I let her sleep. Is that ok? Should I let her sleep or keep her up till after 7pm?

    Also she is still waking up once a night and it doesn't matter at what time I put her to sleep, she will usually wake up around 1am or 3am. How do I make it to where she sleeps thru the night? I don't wanna do the "cry it out" method. So please don't suggest that.

    I don't mind her waking up once a night so if its ok to let her do that till SHE is ready to sleep thru the night on her own then so be it. :)

  • Is this an OK Xbox 360 Headset?

    Before I buy it I wanna make sure that it will be worth it. The seller is asking $13 for it on Yardsellr.com. I want something simple but that works great with out burning a hole thur my wallet. Lol all the headset reviews I find of any headset are bad. I haven't quite found a review for this one so if anyone has had it before can you tell me your experiance.

    Also if anyone has other suggestions on inexpensive headsets please let me know. :)

  • How Can I Bleach My Mixed Baby?!!!! She is too dark!!?

    Lol jk I just really need help.

    Sorry for the alarm but I've skipped the rice cereal stage because my 5 month old (6 months on the 5th of Nov.) was just not interested in it. She made a face that was pure disgust. My doctor said it was because she wasn't ready. But when I would eat in front of her she would lick her lips and try to reach for my food. So i have started with sweet potatoes and next will be banana and then veggie, fruit, veggie, fruit and so on until we go thru them all.

    What is your opinion on skipping the rice cereal stage? Your experiance? and is it harmful to her if i just go into food? Any advice?

    Please answer even though you were heated about the title :)

  • 6 Month Old On the Couch?

    I recently discovered bed bugs on my bed. And since baby sleep in room with me I threw away my whole bed set instead of try treating it..just to be on the safe side. Well no more bugs but now with some money problems im not able to buy a bed.

    At first I was sleeping next to the crib on the floor. But after a couple of weeks the back pain was UNBEARABLE so I moved to the couch.

    Unfortunately, due to a loud a/c I wouldn't wake up fast enough when my daughter woke up. Im a light sleeper when it comes to her. When I use to sleep next to her I would wake up right when she started making noises. But when I moved to the couch I would wake up when she was crying. i can't even tell you how long she was crying :(

    Well what i've been doing recently is bringing her on the couch with me in the middle of the night. I have a firm sectional leather couch. I lay her down on one of her blankies, right next to the arm rest in the sectional part and I lay on the other side of her so that there is absolutely no risk of her falling.

    As for suffocation, I do not move in my sleep and like I said im a very light sleeper and usually wake up to her lightly moving/kicking or her playing with my face. I am 1000+% sure that she sill not get hurt.

    My only concern is if the couch can harm her back or in a way mess with her body.

    Also, during the day she sleeps in her crib and at night I put her to sleep in there to, I wait for her to wake up during the night which is around 1-3am and THEN i bring her on the couch with me until about 6 or 8am.

    When I had my bed I would rarely bring her in the bed with me and as soon as i am able to get a bed I will put her back in her crib. I just don't want her to wake me up by crying anymore I hate to feel as though Im failing her by sleeping while she is awake and hungry :(

    Please only respectable answers.

  • Can My 5 Month Old Have Seasonal Allergies?

    She is turning 6 months on the 5th of Nov.

    As of yesterday she has been sneezing and had a runny nose, she didn't have a fever and was happy. She would also cough every once an while and today she was sneezing and having watery eyes. Still had a runny nose.

    The weather in Texas has been getting cooler so I have been having the door open and going out on walks since the weather is so fresh. I always dress her weather appropriate.

    She is also up to date on her vaccines so could she have allergies?

  • Would I be a bad mother if?

    I have a baby girl that just turned 5 months yesterday ♥

    Her father was just arrested with 2 felonies and is currently in county jail. Him and I have always had problems with our relationships. At the beginning I found out he had another serious gf, but he promised to break up with her. I took him back. We kept having problems with this other girl, I always believed him and kept being stupid. When i got pregnant it got worse.

    He basically acted like since I was having his baby that he could do whatever he wanted and still be in my life. He started having more and more lovers and kept lying to me. He was a very smooth talker, plus I was very stupid.

    When I started trying to leave him, he started hitting on me. Even while I was pregnant, after that I was more scared than in love. I never told anyone and hid my bruises.

    The other gf had the same problem, He would say one thing to me and another to her so me and her always blamed each other and idk very complicated.

    But recently she got away from him and the abuse with him towards me was worse especially since I wasn't pregnant no more.

    He never had a job, I bought all of my daughters things, all he did was see her every once in awhile..

    Well im glad to say that I finally got over him to where I would only let him see her when there was others around so he wouldn't start a fight.

    In jail he's been sending me letters and telling me that's he's thought things over and he wants to be a real family and serious about changing for our daughter.

    Well after these letters I found out that not only was he trying to get in contact with the other girl which he also got pregnant and 8 months preg with a restraining order against him, but he has ANOTHER girl that he is sending letters to and she is visiting him.

    Im completely tired of all his lies and I don't want my daughter to ever think its ok for a guy to treat her like that. So I want to lose contact with him. (block his calls, block all his family members, and move) Just make sure to get him out of my life.

    But would that be fair to my daughter(who by the way never really knew who he was and would always cry like she got scared when he held her), Would that make me a bad mother for cutting off contact with her dad?

    I want respectful answers please, I know I was stupid and should have never got pregnant by him. I regret him but not my daughter she is my world.

    oh and btw me and the other baby momma are friendly towards each other now she has told me that her baby isnt gonna have his name and that he probably wont have any contact with her son.

  • Why must you bible thumpers make us look bad?

    I 100% believe in God, but the bible NO!!

    it was written by MAN, men that want to make themselves closer to God. And no i don't mean closer as in spiritually, no they want others to see them as godly, "the chosen", immortal. However you wanna call it.

    Who are you bible thumpers to try to change people. You ALL contradict yourself not to mention the bible, And how to live with yourselfs? Well you say "that's what God wants."

    "He wants me to neighbor because he LOVES someone of the same sex"

    "God wants me to hate her because she had an abortion after being raped, oh and what about the rapist...he ask forgiveness he's ok"

    You need to stop being ignorant assholes and LOVE THY NEIGHBOR like your stupid little book says.

    Think about this, Why would God make this life just to have thousands or rules that make everyone the same?

    Next time you are in your brainwashing building look around and i bet you will see everyone being exactly the same.

    Dressing the same.

    Looking the same.

    Doing things at the same time.

    ect.

    Im not telling you to stop believing but seriously self evaluate what you have been thought about religion and START THINKING FOR YOURSELF. God made everyone, They are His children, and like a TRUE LOVING Father he accepts us regardless of our decisions. He loves us :)

  • Is it ok to feed her less ounces at night?

    My daughter who is about to be 5 months on the 5th drinks about 6oz every 3 hours during the day.

    She usually is asleep by 8pm even if her last feeding was at 6pm. But through out the night sometime I only make her 4 or 5oz since she usually falls back to sleep with that. She doesn't wine or seem hungry after a small feeding like that.

    Also last night was her full night with out waking up. But when she did she drank 10oz but after that she went back to her regular 6oz every 3 hrs, is that normal?

    During the day is i was to give her 4oz she would wine and cry, like any normal hungry baby.

    So is it ok to feed her about 2oz less during the night?

    Also when she goes to sleep at 8pm she doesn't wake up till about 4am some times 6am.depending the level of noise. But there is time that she wake up at 1am.

  • How to take care of mixed babies hair?

    My 5 month old was born with a lot of very curly hair. I am mexican and her father is black. I dont want to offend or sound ignorant but she does not have "black people" hair. My friend says she could later have "mixed" hair?

    A mother of an all black baby said use a little baby lotion in her hair to keep it managable. Sometimes when her hair is all wild i do but usually after bath time her hair seems fine and cute so i leave it alone.

    If she does have mixed hair, how do i take care of it? Im pretty sure she will have surly hair regardless.

    I know at this age i shouldnt care, but theres sometime about me letting her look all crazy that i cannot do. Please help and IF YOU HAVE ONLY A RUDE COMMENT SAVE IT because i will just press the thumbs down and ignore it. :)
