So, my daughter is going to be 6 months in four days. She usually takes 3 naps during the day and they usually last for about an hour. She'll then sleep from around 8:30 pm to about 7 am, waking me up once or twice to nurse.I've read other places that this is all going to change here shortly, but how is everyone else's baby napping during the day? Are you all still doing three or four naps a day, or has your LO changed up the napping schedule and reduced them down to one or two a day?See More

So, I just had my first child (she's going to be 5 months old. Where does the time go?!), and I'm going to be 33 this month. My mom is visiting us right now, and we've been swapping stories about dealing with newborns and what it's like having a baby. Now, my mom had me when she was 24. I remember looking at my birth certificate and realizing that when I was 24 and thinking to myself, "there is just no way I'm mature enough or have enough of my life together to add a baby to the mix".My mom's…See More

This group is for anyone (even Mr. Moms) who want to discuss or relate to other moms who just happened to be around 30ish. I think it is important to know that mothers (and fathers) come in all ages. Be proud of it! =)See More

My daughter will be completely asleep and then kick her feet up in the air and slam them down on the mattress (I usually hear the thunking noise from her doing it from where I'm sitting in the next room over) and still stay asleep. She likes to kick her feet A LOT when she's awake, but still. To do it like that when she's asleep? O_o;; Does anyone else's child do this or move this much in their sleep?See More

So, my daughter isn't going to be four months until Thursday, but her 4 mo. check up isn't until mid-April. But! I'm curious as to where everyone else's babies are falling the the length and weight spectrum. How long was your baby and how much did they weight at birth, their 2 month appointment and then at their 4 month appointment? (Also, just because I'm curious and I heard it makes a difference, did you formula feed or breastfeed?)See More

So, at what point do you stop burping a baby? I assume it happens at some point as I've never seen anyone regularly burp a toddler, but when? At what age to you not have to worry about that anymore?See More

So, it's winter (still, argh), and my LO's skin is super dry. I only give her a bath twice a week so that I don't dry her skin out any more than it already is, and I try to put lotion on her afterwards. Except the last time I put lotion on her, I used Aveeno's baby lotion for eczema. Everywhere I put the lotion? Angry looking red rash. Her poor belly was just a series of red bumps. What do you all use for baby lotion? My mother suggested just using petroleum jelly and skipping the lotion all…See More
