I am super frustrated. My 9 month old doesn’t want to nap! No matter how hard I try she will not go down for the last 4 days. I am not sure what to try. Yesterday I took her for a car ride and she slept in the car. I was so hungry, I ordered [...]

Hello, I am struggling with the issue of letting my kids outside by themselves. I have a 7 (almost 6 (almost 7) and 3 (almost 5) year old. We live on a cul de sac that thankfully doesn’t see a lot of cars. They have a “club” down the hill behind tall weeds. There [...]

My fourth month old will only take naps in his swing. Anyone have any ideas or tips on how to wing him off the swing? I had to finally buy one for the grandparents since they watch him two days a week and same thing. He falls asleep fine on my shoulder or arms and [...]

My 16 month old is a wee little guy (5th percentile for weight!), who is VERY VERY active, and is not interested in eating. He will nibble here and there on fruit, bread products, proteins (sometimes)…veggies are a definite no. He does love drinking things out of his sippy cup or bottle though.
So I thought, [...]

So, I guess I should start with the background as to why I think my son is so afraid of the vacuum. When he had just started crawling, he crawled down the hallway and was interested in the vacuum. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize I hadn’t unplugged it and being the smart boy that he is, [...]

I am running into issues with my son napping. I have read and read Healthy Sleep Habits Happy Child like recommended and it states that around 3-4 months the morning nap develops around 9:00-10:00. He usually wakes for the day at 6:30, there is no way I can keep him up without getting “overtired” until [...]

I am having such a hard time getting my 9 week old on a nap schedule. Is it too early? He doesn’t take naps consistently, they are different daily depending how his eating schedule falls that day. I have tried putting him down when I notice he is getting fussy and he just cries and [...]

My 5 week old has been presenting with symptoms of acid reflux. He spits up quite a bit and screams afterwards. Anyone have any suggestions on what we could do to make him a little bit more comfy. His doctor doesn’t want to put him on any medications nor do his dad and I, but [...]

So I wish I had my 14 month old metabolism, but everything he eats burns off him since he learned to walk and now beginning to run. He is go, go, go. I already feed him lots of avocadoes, flax, nuts, seeds (for healthy fats), but he still is on the leaner side especially with [...]
