My 4 year old does. It is so hard to understand him. He had his ears checked so he doesn't have a hearing problem. He still points to stuff he wants or brings the item to me because he can't say what it is. I send him to a...

kellyanna_99 I think that is the "old school" way of thinking when c-sections were down with the vertical incision. I think it depends on your experience, you situation, your doctor's policy, etc. It really seems to be highly individualized. I've had three c-sections...

kellyanna_99 I de-clutter contantly. I grew up with two packrat parents, so I think my decluttering is in response to that! I "try" to get everything picked up each day, and make sure I put things back in there original places. Doesn't always happen, but I try. And, I have...

kellyanna_99 I do. You have to search around as sometimes with shipping it isn't cheaper, but often I find it is. Or nearly, and the convenience of not having to go out for me is a big factor in shopping online. I have 4 kids 4 and under, am a part time student,...
