My baby is already eating solid foods at this age but is only limited to cereals, potatoes, carrots, eggs and rice. I'm just curious if you also give your child this age what the rest of the family is eating, like if there's an...

gnamarie It depends. I choose not to give her candies or other sweets yet. Its best to give her nutritious foods which are high in protein and iron. Just ensure that the food you are giving can be chewed and digested easily by your baby. Remember to give lots of fluids...

gnamarie I agree with you. In reading, it challenges your imagination. The plot is not limited to the ones presented in the movies. Aside from that, movies does not totally capture all the facts indicated in the book. And it sometimes misses some important...

gnamarie This is indeed a very difficult scenario. But given a choice, I would let my child live. For one, I want the baby to have a chance for life. This is one sacrifice a mother can do for her own child. You can call this unconditional love.

Women are moodier than men. Is this true? In my opinion, this is false. Men have hormones, too. Besides, I think my husband is moodier than me. LOL!

gnamarie It depends. Men and women have different make up. You have to consider if the woman is pregnant as well. She could be more moodier than men. Most people think women are moodier because they are more vocal about their feelings and emotions. Men tend to be more...

gnamarie I'd prefer marrying someone 2 years older than me. Some say guys act 2 years younger than their age. Though I believe maturity does not come with age. It really depends on the individual. I ended up marrying someone 3 months older than me:)

gnamarie I used to encounter this problem during my younger years. What I usually do is drink milk in order to calm my nerves and read a book. Eventually, I may fall asleep.
