Do you favor one child more than the other?

laydlexius @laydlexius (133) • United States 1 Aug 07

I have to say that it hurts my heart to see parents who show favor to a child over another. I feel that does nothing but causes seperation between siblings and that's not cool. In my household I did cling to my oldest son because...

sugarcrystalz I'm having a hard time with it right now. I have a 2 1/2 year old and an 8 week-old. My first was colicy as a newborn, and is a terror now at 2. My newborn, on the other hand, is the textbook "good baby". I find myself wanting to be around my newborn more just...

Would you have another baby shower if you were pregnant again and had one already for your first? Who would you invite?

sugarcrystalz I think it's about the baby and each baby should be celebrated. I had a baby shower with both of my girls. The first was thrown by my friends at school (I was still in high school) and the second was thrown by my sisters-in-law. I think if someone wants to...

What do you with clothes that you no longer use?

Hazel Funcion @Zelmarq (12585) • Cebu City, Philippines 31 Jul 07

In our house we keep them and gather them together and when they are many enough we send them to our relatives in the province. We keep them so that we can give it to them because we know that they still can make use of it and it...

sugarcrystalz If I know that I can get a lot for them I'll sell them on e-bay. Otherwise, I'll give them to Goodwill or something like that. Usually, they just sit around my house, though, because I never find the time to do something with them.

SIDS - Will you co sleep with your baby?

babydolphin @babydolphin (536) • Australia 14 Feb 07

I have heard that SIDS are often caused when the baby are sleeping together in a bed with the parents. The Australian charity SIDS and KIDS recommend that the baby sleep in their own bed in their parents room for the first 6 to 12...

sugarcrystalz Co-sleeping actually reduces the risk of SIDS. It does increase suffocation risks if you don't co-sleep safely, but suffocation is not SIDS. There are many precautions to take if you co-sleep. Don't co-sleep on a couch or chair, only on a bed. Don't use...

sugarcrystalz It's different for everyone. I got married at 18, and while I wouldn't advise just anyone that was 18 to get married, it was right for us. You have to look at many things. Have you been together for a long time? Do you have the same views on having kids,...

sugarcrystalz I've found they go through within a day, and if not by then they probably won't be approved. If you're still waiting, you can try doing an offer again. Mixing up your email addresses and deleting your cookies helps more offers get approved.

sugarcrystalz Yes I do, but mostly "adult" cartoons like Simpsons, Family Guy, Futurama, etc. Although I do watch Spongebob with my daughter occasionally... I miss the cartoons that were on when I was a kid, though, like the road runner and shows like that.

Do you worry that other moms will judge you?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 30 Jul 07

I'm always surprised how many different opinions there are when it comes to parenting. Some moms love to micro-manage their kids lives, while others take a more laid-back approach. I think I'm somewhere in the middle. My little...

sugarcrystalz I don't really worry about it. I've researched the decisions I make so I believe that I'm doing what is best for my kids, and there's no way that I can feel bad about that. Sometimes if I'm talking to someone who is at the complete opposite side of the...

sugarcrystalz It's strange how pregnancies can be SO much different. I just had my second girl and the pregnancies, births, and their personalities now didn't have anything in common. With the morning sickness- make sure that you DO eat. Usually, morning sickness is caused...

Does your spouse clean better than you?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 30 Jul 07

I know better than to ask my husband to clean anything around the house, cause he would do a much better job than me. While he rarely cleans around the house, when he actually does do the job, he's much better at it than me. Even...

sugarcrystalz I think my husband does clean better than me, but it's more of a time thing. For example- when he does the dishes he washes every piece of silverware seperately- when he vacuumes he moves every piece of furniture, etc. I just don't have the time or the...

sugarcrystalz Haha, that's great! I wouldn't want to drink either one, though- that's definitely NOT the way I'd want to go into labor. I think wives tales are interesting. They're usually so stupid that you have to wonder how some people believe them in the first place....

sugarcrystalz My dad started using one a few years ago. He smoked from when he was 8 up until about 45 so I'm sure that had a lot to do with it. I don't kno much about it but he sleeps much, much better with it.

sugarcrystalz My 8 week-old usually sleeps on her back or side. Occasionally I'll put her on her tummy if she's crabby and I'm always close by. Also, co-sleeping actually reduces the risk of SIDS as long as you do it safely. I co-sleep with both of mine and love it!

sugarcrystalz I've never scrapped with anyone but I have had marathon sessions at home a few times. I'll join an online crop and just scrapbook all day- lots of fun! I think I'd need to scrap all day every day for months to get all my photos done- I have thousands too!
