I have checked Amazon but didn’t find much luck. I need hoodies for my 3 years old baby-boy. Any suggestions where I can purchase/order (online) hoodies for extreme cold? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

4 month old and bathing?

My son is a bit too big for his infant bath so we have been giving him a bath in the bath tub. We have to lay down a towel in there to keep him from sliding around and too provide some kind of cushion. I have no idea where to find something for him to lay on. I have looked on Walmart.com and BabiesRUs.com. Does anyone know where I can get something to lay down for him to bathe him? I remember I got a foam type cushion for my daughter 3 years ago at Walmart but now I guess they don’t carry them. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

I’m having little girl and there’s 8 weeks left! YAY! My mother in law is quite excited too! Since we told her shes been mailing in big boxes full of used clothes from preemie size to size 7, shoes from NB all the way to tap shoes size 10.

I’m very grateful but really over whelmed… to date I have revived a total of 33 boxes! I started to put them in totes by size and quickly relished I need a better plan. I have too much but there so cute! BUT
How many clothes per-size do I really need? What about the used shoes?
She has sent clothes that will be out of season for her age too, do I keep them just in case? (my son was born over 9lbs and 22inches long and didn’t fit in any of his NB clothes, he was to long)
I’m also a Air Force wife and every 3 years we move..I so don’t want to pack and move clothes that my child won’t wear for years!

Thanks for the ideas and help!

I have 3 children and they were all toilet trained before they turned 3 years old. But our next door neighbors’ son is 3 and a half and they are still trying to get him out of diapers. I’ve been wondering if there’s an age where it’s illegal for your children to still be in diapers. Is there such a law in some states, or can parents keep their children in diapers as long as they want without any consequences?

My baby girl is 17 months old and she is using the Gerber size 2 NUK silicone pacifiers. When she turns 18 months next month, I am planning on getting her the Gerber size 3 NUK pacifiers which are for ages 18 months to 3 years. However, they do not make the size 3 ones in silicone, they only make them in latex. I have heard that some people are allergic to latex. So how do I know that they will be okay for my baby. Or should I just keep on using the size 2 silicone ones?

So whats new? Here were are almost 3 years later and I have had no results. Long story short.. I had a child with my ex husband. By the time he was 6 months old, we separated then finally divorced. That was April of 07~ the court then ordered him to pay me 7.00/month for child support. Since then I have only received 1500.00. My ex has this whole thought that unless he sees him he wont pay me child support. I recently got remarried, and my husband has had to pick up the slack. I thank god every day because I struggled for along time having to work, pay daycare, food, clothes, insurance, etc all on my own. My husband loves my son, absolutely would love the thought of him being his own one day. Recently my exhusband has gotten a new girlfriend who has a kid and tells me that he no longer wants anything to do with us. I know I know.. Stupid! So the sum of it is, he doesnt pay what the court has ordered him to pay, he doesnt want to see him. So can I get his rights relinquished? Can he volutarily give up his rights? Or are there any more serious actions that I can take to get him to step up and be a dad. My attorney is quite expensive and im really trying to do everything I can not to involve her but know that ill probably have to give in. Ive gone through the local child support service to try to get his wages assigned, but unfortnatley its taking almost 4 months to get anyone to know anything on my case. I dont know. Its aggrevating. Ive got a man that wants to be a father and will do what it takes but on the other hand doesnt want to keep cleaning up another guys financial issues. My son is our world and I just wanna do whats right for his future… help!

My sister in law does not wipe her children’s face when the get food on it. Also, her children go around the house with food and don’t have to sit down with it, so they get food all over their clothing as well. Also, her daughter is almost 3 years old and has had one haircut in her life and her hair looks very unkept, she in my opinion looks neglected.
My daughter is 4 weeks old so I don’t have a toddler yet, but I see myself wiping her after she eats and having her sit down and eat her food.
Does everyone allow their children to be this sloppy?

I am the mother of two children of my own and a stepdaughter who i do everything for and really love her as my own, her mother is a deadbeat who she hasnt lived with since she was 2 and the daughter has lived with me and my fiance (her father) for almost the past 3 years, she mother is a mother when its convenient for her.. I have accepted this child because of my own life experience as an orphan and being treated very differently from the woman who raised me children, and for that I never would want to treat a child in my household different.

well now her mother has decided that I should not be able to do her daughters hair, take her to school, or dress her in the morning, my fiance said ok, came home to me and told me either his mother or the childs mother will be taking her to school from now on, his mother or his sister will do her hair, like what kind of nonsense is that? I asked him so I can bathe her, feed her, clothe her, pay for her trips at school, etc etc, but if i have to take her out and you are not with me and we see her mother in the street what am i supposed to do? obviously the answer is run the other way

so i told him if she can have so much influence as to change the day to day routine of our household there is no point in me doing anything for this child period, she should not have the authority to pick and choose she isn’t even a full time mother .. and she always tries to swing her power around and he lets her every time, he never went and filed for custody because every time he did the mother would cry and he would feel guilty and dismiss or throw out the court papers,

now because i bitched and moaned about it, he calls the mother back to tell her she cant dictate what happens in our house.. how wishy washy does he look?? and what happened that he didnt feel that way when she said it instead of just folding? i am sooo sick of being second to the childs mother when i am the one who does everything for the child.. and i told him if thats the case and she is going to be able to have influence over what happens in my house where i pay all the bills then maybe we need to rethink the making of this "family"
