these are just random things i’ve always been curious about.
1. what do you usually dress your toddler in and why? (sweats, wind suits, dresses, jeans ect.)
2. How long did you use onesis for?
3. How long did you use bibs and put your child in the high chair for meals?
4. How much stuff do you take along to the grocery store and why? (diaper bag, purse, cup ect) and what do you take inside and what stays in the car?
I am particularly interested in number 4. I finally have a working car so my 17 month old son and I will be doing the majority of errands and shopping alone together. Before now, my fiance would take the bags inside (diaper bag and purse) and I would carry our son since we went to do all these things together on saturdays since he had the only working car. Well i have no problem carrying both, but i just wondered if I wouldn’t be better off putting a diaper and a travel pack of wipes in my purse (its on the large side) and taking maybe his cup in with us? But then I think well what if he pees through his clothes or something and needs totally changed? I can’t leave him inside while i run out, and i can’t very well take my wet and unhappy toddler out in the cold and wind and abandon our full cart inside. s oi figure i may as well take it all in. but i’m just curious to see what other mothers think and what they do?
please answer all of my questions above, but particulary give any advice on what you do with your toddlers things and how you make grocery shopping and running errands with a little one as stress free and comfy as possible.
thank you!

I’m wanting to start an online company that sells various baby items. I’ve seen many people have myspace pages as well as websites. Which is better or should I start out with one and then add the other? Also how do I go about deciding shipping? I don’t want to set a flat fee since I plan to sell things relatively cheap but I don’t want it to be too high either. I wanted to use flat rate boxes from the post office. Also how do I get these do I pay for them upfront or can I just get the boxes and pay for them when I get the orders sent out? I was at the post office and I saw a girl getting a hand full of envelops for free and she paid when she dropped her stuff off so I’m thinking you can get them and pay later but how do I go about actually getting them? Thanks.

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?

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!

Thank you for qualifying your question! Your question screams of prejudice, but I am glad that you are….not anti-semitic, nor anti-Israel(!)
For you and other ignorant people, the U.S. gives support to many countries around the world. We don’t give support for nothing. We get a lot back, especially from Israel, which is the only true democracy in the Middle East, and a true ally of the U.S.
For those who address how much money we give Israel, you would show a great deal of fairness, even mindedness, and unbiassness if you were to address the fact that the U.S. gives tens of billions of dollars per year to Egypt, Jordan, and other Arab nations, the vast majority which are dictatorial regimes and have a substantial segment that is brewing Islamofascism and rais their children to hate America, hate Israel, hate the Western world, hate non-Muslims.
For those who believe that the extremist element in Islam is small, the numbers are staggering. There are 1.2 billion Muslims in this world. Lets take a very liberal view that only a very small percentage of Muslims are exterme, while the rest of the Muslim world is very peaceful. So if only 10% of Muslims have extreme point of views, and may be a threat, and must be dealt with, meaning dealing with 120 million Muslims! How about 1%? Then you must deal with 12 million Muslims. How about 1/10 of a percent? Then you must deal with 1.2 million Muslims. The numbers are staggering! How do you propose dealing with even the “very low” figures of 1.2 million Muslim extremists?
Israel, a small country made up of 6 million people, is a technology hub that has more patents than China, Japan, and Europe combined! Many of these advances are shared with the U.S. I am willing to bet you that you are using an Israeli invention right now.
Aside from a practical reason to help Israel, there are those who believe in the biblical importance of Israel, and maintaining a Jewish homeland as was available centuries before Muhammed wore his diapers.
There multitude of other reasons why support Israel is important, but to think that the support is given for free is absurd, and shows poor education and thinking skills.
As for your last comment, Israel would exist no matter what, as it did thousands of years ago in the Kingdom of Israel, and Kingdom of Judea, which were countries long before Muhammed rode his tricycle.
Your bias and prejudice is blinding your judgement and reality. But I’ve seen it before. Shameful!

Googling gets a lot of dead links, spammy sites, and not-so-great patterns.
The best places to go seem to be yarn company sites — there’s nice stuff at www.berroco.com, for one — but I’m not the one doing the crocheting, and I have no idea about good yarn companies. Throw some names at me?

It may look like i changed a lot but actually she was on one from the hospital for a week and a half and the doctor said change to soy. she was on that for 3 weeks and became extremely fussy all day after drinking it.the doctor said try alimentum and because of her reaction the doc said stay on soy. I then switched doctors. The new one said try good start and she would not even take it so technically she never had it. Now we are trying sensitive lactose free.

My daughter is now 8 months old, and up until Dec. 27th she was fed Parents Choice Immune Support formula (milk based, prebiotics added) She did great with this until Christmas Eve, when she started getting HORRIBLE diahrreah. We decided to take her off the formula for a day and just give her baby food,oatmeal and pedialyte, which ended the diahrreah. So she was switched to a soy formula which helped but also made her spit up every time she ate. So, we were told to put her on a lactose free milk based formula. She doesnt get diahrreah, but she gets horrible gas pains and severe constipation. I dont think shes allergic to milk protein because she doesnt get rashes or have any trouble breathing or anything, but I really think she cannot digest milk properly. Has anyone elses baby been through this and what did you have to do? Her doctor told us to decide for ourselves which formula is better for her, so im just seeking advice. Thanks!
Also… is it true that soy formula messes up baby’s reproductive system or anything like that?
