My pediatrician told me to start feeding rice cereal now that she’s 4 months old. She has really good support of her head and neck. My aunt said it’s too early and that she’s never heard of any mom starting their babies with solids at 4 months. What was your experience? How was your baby reacting the first time you tried giving them their first rice cereal? Thanks!

As most people know he is dead. :o ( It is so sad. Hubby & I have been very blessed to meet him 6 years ago at the LA Zoo. To make a long story short, Hubby knows the head of the zoo, Mike Dee. And we were invited to meet him and listen to him speak there. So we have pictures of us with him, terri and Bindi. So our son knows who he is. our son is 4 months older then their son Bob. I told him that he is with the angels and that he will watch over all the people who love animals. But, I don’t know what else to tell him. Any ideas?

PS: Does anybody have the address to his zoo? I can’t get on to his web site.

Should I skip a size in stretching my ears?

I know that is probably the one thing you are NEVER supposed to do but here’s the situation:
I purchased my 14′s, 12′s, and 10′s at the same time. I’ve had my 14′s in for about 4 months because I haven’t taken the time to move up. When I finally went to put my 12′s in I was able to insert the jewelry without stretching the hole at all, so now I’m wondering if I should just stretch up to the 10′s now? I mean, I’m not in any rush but, why wait if II don’t have to, you know?

My daughter is 4 months old and it’s finally starting to warm up around here! Usually I put her in long sleeve footed body suits for night time, but I think most of them are pretty heavy weight and I feel like they’ll be too hot for sometime. What is something else I could have her wear when it’s warm out?

Thanks!

I am 15 weeks pregnant. I live in the tristate suburban area. I am planning to resume my job about 4 months after the baby will be born. I heard day cares have limited capacity for infants and have longer wait times… any idea how soon one needs to start looking for a day care?
