    Breastfeeding moms~ a place to chat (2)

    during times like these (and after bites once they have teeth) a nipple shield is GREAT! They are usually sold for those with flat or inverted nipples, but I find them the best solution IN THE WORLD for pain!! I have friends that have used them for mastitas & w/ newborns who have bad latch too.

    People telling us not to have children!!!

    Any voice you hear is only from God if it doesn't contradict his Word. Because God IS the Word! So... I would take any criticism you receive from those who are recommending you not have children & compare them against the bible to see if they are biblically valid. Ask a Pastor for help doing...

    "Green" Vaccines

    I wonder about the aluminum... right now it's in nearly all vaccines... and it's VERY toxic.

    Breastfeeding moms~ a place to chat (2)

    My oldest turned 3 last month. I nursed him until 3 months ago. My daughter is about 20 months and I'm still nursing her, my 3rd is due in March, and I'm going to see if I can week Jill before the new baby... but she isn't having anything to do with it yet. Makes for one tired momma!!! :wave...

    Does anyone know any good books on parenting and discipline?

    Shepherding a Child's Heart. by Tripp. He is a Christian author.. the best in my opinion. I'm not a fan of spanking, so I just disagreed with him on that point. It's not a main focus in his book, and the rest of the book will have great relevance for you. Also, Creative Correction by Lisa...

    Wedding plans and making everyone happy...

    Well... I think that most of simply was him not wanting the attention. This stumps me because he's great in any social situation I've seen. I think the antipication and waiting and thinking about it must be hard too.. because they've agreed to get married the weekend before Christmas and have...

    Is my wife choosing the church over us?

    My heart hurts for your situation. My cousin Kouki told me that Christmas is more of a lovers holiday than anything else in Japan. He said it's somewhat like we celebrate Valentine's day.It makes me wonder why her church is so insistant on doing something so long and drawn out. I don't know...

    Wedding plans and making everyone happy...

    I think this would work if it was a business transaction, but she is emotionally invested too. She wants someone to share the moment with. I think it would be sad that they have to have 2 witnesses by law, and he doesn't want either to be anyone they know... so a stranger and the photographer...

    Facebook... Do or Don't ?!?!

    I'm wondering if some of you are thinking of myspace vs. facebook. The reason I say so is because myspace allows questionable advertisements, pictures, inappropriate content stars can advertise, and it very much seems like pick-up joint to me. I can't stand it... it's awful. I've NEVER seen anything like that on...

    Age Gap Frustrations

    (((Applause))) I think you handled it great! I think that if you decide to reply you could mention that... Say "I'm sorry you felt disrespected, however, my marriage is my number one priority and I need to decide and discuss issues with my husband. I did hear your advice, and it's nice to know...

    Facebook... Do or Don't ?!?!

    My husband and I each have a page (so do our pastor and his wife too.. along with many others from our church family). John and I know each others passwords and check anytime we wish. With that said... I rarely if ever do. We also have each others email passwords. Full accountability. We've not...

    Wedding plans and making everyone happy...

    Okay... I'm asking this for my sister E and her boyfriend M. She has always envisioned a big wedding, a reception with dinner and a first dance and the whole thing... Her bf wants to elope and come back and send out announcements and be done with it. So to compromise she said, if we have a...

    Talk to me about adult baptism.

    I think you've already had some good advise, so I'd just like to add my personal experience. My family like yours is Catholic. I even taught 2nd grade catechism. My mom's side of the family is Lebanese and went back in generations of tradition. Catholicism was just as much part of my identity...

    scriptures that illuminated your mind...

    think back to the time you accepted Christ, is there any one verse (or few) that really impacted you? The ones that were that "aha" moment where you realized who Christ was and that you needed to follow him? What were they? Why?
