freestuf — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 09:13:23 +0000

I bought all newborn diapers to prepare for when baby comes home! How many woman skip the N and go straight to 1?? I have no 1 diapers at all (accept for free samples).
Right now I have 4 packages of N diapers from different brands. Should I stock up on 1 too, take some N back??
Whats your opinion!

U.k. Parents Did You Know This About Bpa Free Baby Bottles?

freestuf — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 02:59:34 +0000

ALL of Asda’s own brand baby bottles are BPA free…the really cheap ones that they sell…I think they’re about 1.50 for three! I’ve been ordering glass ones off the internet and it was costing me almost £20.00 for three including postage! Asda dont make a big deal of it on the packaging…it just says “BPS free” in really small writing…plus I never would have bought those cheap ones if I hadn’t know they were BPA free…did you know this?

Have You Ever Felt Like You Want To Shake The People At Your Child’s School?

freestuf — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 02:59:24 +0000

I know I am feeling particularly sensitive today, but bear with me:
My child had baby eczema, this lasted for years, right up until he was 3, but has since cleared, because I carefully apply the correct moisturisers, have never changed any of his soaps or powders, and always get products for sensitive skin, if I must buy outside of his usual stuff (such as shops own scent free baby soaps). The school have never seen his eczema flare up, because since he started there, he’s never had one.
Recently, his dry skin is back, just like in the cold weather when he was a baby – but I am making sure I keep it dry after baths, apply his Oilatum, do not change his products etc. It is very red around his neck, but I believe he has been scratching it too, as 6 year olds are wont to do!
Yesterday, his teacher pointed it out, making sure to speak veerrrrry slowly, as I am obviously stupid, and have not noticed this – So I told her about his baby eczema and how to me, this flare up seems very mild compared to how it was when he was seeing a dermatologist at the hospital, I had already made plans to check him up with his GP as I am taking my younger son for his injections today.
Today, the school secretary grilled me as if I was a bad mother on every product I use, occasionally she would say “you shouldn’t use that you know?” and I would shut her up by pointing out that if a qualified dermatologist and all of his GPs have said there is no possible way that was causing his eczema then THEIRS is the opinion I shall go with. Again, I said I had already spoken to his teacher AND made arrangements to get an appointment for him.
DO these stupid people seriously think I would neglect my son? How on earth can they have been in teaching for so long and never seen eczema? They must think I am one of those evil parents who does not care!
Has anyone else felt that people at the school need a good hard slap?
If I was the sort of mother that did not care, do they seriously think I would mend my ways because they allude to the fact? I could scream!

Which Formula Do You Recommend And Why?

It seems similac advanced is the best, but its pricey..I was able to get a free sample from the docs office before giving birth. It lasted me a month. I tried Parents choice and it gave my baby gas… (horrible gas)… I haven’t tried anything else.

If I Wear A Diaper For Bedwetting, Should I Put On Powder Or Lotion And Which First?

freestuf — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 21:03:39 +0000

I had a horrible accident. I peed in my pants on the school bus and everyone saw. I’m in seventh grade by the way, and 12 years old is way too old to wet your pants. And then that night I wet the bed. My mom took me to the doctor and he said I had a urinary infection so he gave me antibiotics and a weeks worth of free sample bedwetter pants (pullup diapers). So I wore them, and used them and my skin was itchy and raw in the morning. Should I use powder or lotion or what? I have a baby sister so all that stuff is in the house. I’m too embarrassed to ask my mom, so I thought I’d ask you since you have babies and know about this stuff. What should I put on and how much and in what order? Is it lotion then powder or powder first? My face is really red. I’m embarrassed even to type this but it’s serious.

If I Join Weight Watchers, Will They Give Me Vegetarian, Lactose Free Options?

freestuf — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 21:03:36 +0000

I recently had a baby and now have to be in a wedding in May, so I want to lose the baby weight, about 15 pounds right now (but ultimately about 25 or 30).
The problem is, I am mostly lactose intolerant and I do not eat meat. I am worried about the high fat content in some of the things I eat to get protein, such as nuts. I would love to learn some lower-fat options and want to know if weight watchers would be able to teach me these things (or where else I can learn this stuff).
My sister-in-law did weight watchers and it worked great for her. Polite answers only, please! Thanks…

freestuf — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 15:13:51 +0000

and people answer with have you tried breast milk! It’s free no warming up and always with you. Can we all assume they couldn’t breast feed! I couldn’t! I had NO milk I tried and tried and pumped and pumped and nothing! My daugher was in the NICU and I was very stressed out/sad. The nurse said that could’ve dried up my milk! PLEASE people be courteous and just answer what they are asking. BTW I just had to get this out! Sorry!
