Baby Bottle Dilemma
2008-11-02 18:06
Back when we first came home from the hospital, we used the standard bottle and nipples that they provided. It seemed to work just fine at the time, until our baby boy kept crying in the mi… Read More

I think the prune juice worked! It took a couple days to 'kick in' - but when the time was right, the BOMB dropped. About a weeks worth of backed-up poop all in one diaper! Now, he poops… Read More
Baby Constipation
2008-10-17 22:23
We've been trying to transition to formula - not because my wife can't produce, but because it actually helps him sleep thru the night. The experts say that it is more complex to digest tha… Read More

Now they really thought of everything!I never even knew these existed until a friend gave us these Pee Pee Tee Pees as a gift. I guess it makes sense, but I didn't even know that there was… Read More

My brother of all people gave me this tip before I had my kid. Put some vaseline on the diaper so that when he poops, it won't stick to his bum. I gave it a try, and it worked! Sometimes… Read More
The Straight-Jacket Swaddle
2008-10-07 21:29
I can certainly vouch for the effectiveness of swaddling your infant - it provides him/her with a sense of security and safety, plus they don't end up hitting themselves and waking up! From… Read More

A few weeks before our due date a friend of ours lent us a book & DVD of "Happiest Baby On The Block". She and her husband convinced us that it worked and helped their baby to sleep and… Read More

We were expecting sometime in June, so we figured ordering a crib in March should give us sufficient time to receive and set it up before our son's arrival. Our crib was coming from Europe… Read More

Make sure that prior to checking in to your hospital that you securely fasten your infant car seat. Call your local police department - they can ensure that it is installed correctly. In L… Read More

I would say that the most intimidating experience I've had in recent memory was not: asking my then-wife's parents for her hand in marriage; placing the ring on her finger to seal a lifetime… Read More
Delivery Day Thoughts
2008-09-27 14:45
It was 5am in the morning and my wife wakes up, "Hunny, I think I peed in bed". We checked the sheets and sure enough there was a damp puddle of liquid around her. Not knowing what it was… Read More

After some relief and rest post-delivery, we were eager to wrap things up and finally head on home. Just a couple of things left to do: circumcision and a meeting with the in-house lactatio… Read More

I just put our son JD down to bed, and turned on the stuffed lamb that makes various sounds - I chose the rain sound, that seems to soothe him the best. When he was younger (3 mos.) we alwa… Read More

Now that JD is crawling and climbing (EVERYWHERE), we knew it was time to get a gate so he doesn't accidently tumble down the stairs. My wife's sister had purchased a cheap wooden one to sa… Read More

It has been a couple months now, since JD has been able to sleep through the night without waking up. My, what a relief! Since he was about 7 or 8 months, he has been able to sleep from ab… Read More

Our son, now 10 months old, loves sitting in his booster seat. We have a high chair, but we don't even use it. This Fisher-Price booster is great because you can take it wherever you go… Read More
