WHEN YOU GET YOUR NEWBORN HOME, WHAT SLEEPING PROBLEMS DID YOU ENCOUNTER?

Dec 22nd

Question by Nelle – Keeley is now 1!:
When you get your newborn home, what sleeping problems did you encounter?

Hello there ladies. Hope you’re having a good morning/afternoon!

Just curious, I am 35 Weeks 5 Days pregnant and due to get induced on the 29th of October – if I can make it that far! (On medication to try stop contractions and OBGYN is hoping I can make it to 37 Weeks)

What I was curious about was since it is only a matter of weeks until we have our little one here, I wonder what problems I might come up against when it comes to settling our baby for sleep during the night.

How do you overcome these problems? Does your baby have trouble sleeping and if so what were the reasons you found it was due to?

If it helps for you to know, I plan to breastfeed (milk has already come in – colostrum) and my husband is a light sleeper so just curious as to what we could come against in a normal night. So we’re prepared.

Also the baby’s nursery is set up in our bedroom and the baby will be sleeping in the cot which we have a newborn support for him/her to go in.

Sorry if this question is broad but any input on how your newborn sleeps/slept and what problems you encountered, or just the usual amount of feeds (not problems! – just expected stuff) you experienced would help give me an idea of what we could expect. Thank you!

Question by star m:
What do you do after a newborn’s belly button falls off? Are there any special after care instructions?

My baby’s belly button pops out, is that normal or will it go in? Or do I have to do something so the baby has an inie not an outie?
I accidently wrote belly button instead of embylical cord, thanks Melanie for pointing it out, it’s been a little hectic and I am not thinking straight. Thank you for the answers I have recieved so far.

WHAT TOYS CAN I BUY THAT WOULD BE SAFE AND FUN FOR MY GUINEA PIG?

Dec 19th

Posted by admin in How to Choose Safe Baby Toys

Question by Hazel:
What toys can I buy that would be safe and fun for my guinea pig?

Would infant/baby toys be safe, if so, which ones? (I would supervise of course)

Would dog toys, like stuffed animals, be safe?

I’m also buying some of those balls with bells in them for cats, and a ‘ferret fun’ pack with a ball and wagon wheel that has bells in it. I am also buying these treat balls that are made for cats, where you put treats in them and they roll them around until they get them out. Would these entertain my piggy, or are they a waste of money?

Any other recommendations (I’ve looked on the web plenty of times, no need for links, but rather your own ideas) would be GREATLY appreciated!

Oh, and my piggy is an 8 month female. :]

Question by kiko:
How old can a baby be and still get cradle cap?

My baby got cradle cap at one month of age. I got rid of it, and now every week I take preventative measures against it (rubbing in baby oil, then combing it through before shampooing it). She’s 10 months old now. How long should I keep doing this?

Question by Meshel:
Does anybody know how to install the gold bug head and body support for a baby automobile seat?

I just bought one this day and there was not much instruction in the packaging. It is pretty self explanatory except, I am unsure about the lower portion, where my daughters legs would be and where the lower portion of the seat belt buckles?
