    A question for the parents

    I'm posting this in WD and in parenting. Thanks to all of you so far who have helped me out. I don't know a lot of parents locally so you guys are a gigantic help, no doubt. Question: Should sitting, crawling, and walking be deliberately encouraged in infants and toddlers? Why or why not?

    I thought the terrible twos were just an urban legend...

    NOTE: more of a senseless rant than anything. UGH! That is all. Just ugh. My son now screams "No, no!!!!" at me. I've never screaed at my child and he screams at me. :o Not only that, when he doesn't get his way, he just throws himself down wherever he is (he could be in the middle of a...

    CD chat

    It is so funny, I was just coming to make a cloth diapering chat thread when I saw Jan's. ^_^ Anyway, let's make this a place to discuss cloth diapering. What's your fave diaper? Where do you get most of your diapers? Pockets, AIO, PF, Fitted...what's your poison? How long have you been...

    Say a prayer, please

    Please say a prayer for us. We go to the dr. @ 2:30 to get the results of all our preliminary testing and figure out where to go from here. I'm going to ask about the Soy Isoflavones and see what he thinks about those. I'm so excited and scared...all at the same time. I just want God's will here...

    Tests

    Ok, so a couple of questions about TTC tests. The home ovulation kits...worth it? No? Why or why not? IF they are worth it, what is one thing I need to know when buying them? My gynecologist said that he would start all the tests for Jesse and me to make sure we are "working right." What do...

    So I'm in the middle of a flare up...

    Yeah...so I'm new to this subforum (didn't know it was here, hi everyone :wave:). I have severe anxiety disorder with a side order of PTSD. :) I've been doing okay. I prayed when Jesse and I first got married 2 and 1/2 years ago that if he would just give me someone to take care of, that I knew...

    Do you ever

    Just want to run away? I don't mean joking around and going oooh, I wanna run away and never come back type stuff...I mean do you ever just want to place your little one safely in his crib and walk out the door and never look back? I'm there now and it is eating me up. :sigh:

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080425/ap_on_go_pr_wh/bush_economy Does he really think that less than $2000 per family is REALLY going to help the economy *that* much? :confused:

    Big kid bed

    What age did you put your little one in a "big kid bed?" Justin has been trying to climb out of his crib, which doesn't concern me much because he is far from succeeding. What does concern me, though is that the last two nights, he has gotten his pudgy little thigh stuck between the bars of...

    What are they? Us? We are leaving for the Outer Banks (NC) @ 7 in the a.m. and spending the weekend there. A mini vacation if you will. :) How about you?

    Another negative

    :sigh: Why do I even bother taking pregnancy tests? It is utterly pointless. That is all.

    I am so proud of him!

    So it has been speculated that Justin is behind developmentally with his speech. I have really been drilling words into his head lately. He says daddy, bath (more like baaa), and bite. That's really about it. Today, I was getting ready to take my shower and he takes it with me. I said "Ready...

    He won't stop eating!

    These last couple of days, Justin eats and eats and eats. I feed him breakfast, he wnats to graze and eat until lunch. I feed him lunch, he wants to eat all afternoon and then eat dinner. After dinner, he wnats to eat more. I know I'm feeding him enough and I know the stuff I'm feeding him...

    Do Quiverfull

    Adopt? We have agreed that God is totally in control of the size of our family, but we also feel it really heavy on our hearts to adopt. I know that I don't need a word to define what God tells me, but would you, as a practicing quiverfuller (haha, fun word) adopt?
