jolanda33 i do the same thing! first lunch, and then candy, but not too much! after dinner no more candy at all! yes and when she starts crying i just let her cry and ignore it, or try to do something with her so she forget about the candy at all! it works for me!

jolanda33 hi, it is not my style, but if you make them in funny colours for the summer maybe you can sell them! i think a lot of the people likes them! under a skirt or dress!

jolanda33 oke i understand! maybe you can put something on your nipple that taste bad? little ones don't like the new taste in the beginning so if you put something on it like mustard(just a tiny little bit) and try the bottle then maybe this will work?

All right all you parents out there! Admit it. It's not always easy to get your child or children to sleep at night. At the moment we are struggling a bit with our 2 year old. Got any advice or experience on the issue?

Our baby is 6 months old and we don't burp him anymore. I guess we unconsciencly figured he didn't need the help anymore. Should we continue burping him? When did you stop burping your lo?

jolanda33 same here! my daughter didn't burp at all after 6 months! and as soon as the bottle is empty she cannot sit still anymore so i can not even try it. and after the evening bottle she falls asleep after finishing it, so no burping either!

When did you move your baby to the crib? My daughter is 13 weeks old and I have been thinking about moving her from her bassinet to her crib in her own room, but I am a bit hesitant.
