    Seperation-ONly Mommy...

    My son is 4 years old. I have been with my SO for a year and a half now and we just moved in together a couple of months ago. I definitly make sure to give my DS 100% attention when he is with me for the week, but I feel like he maybe feels like home and a family when he is with me and my SO...

    Seperation-ONly Mommy...

    I have been checking out his behavior on Daddy day, but he acts the same. He works himself up all week to when Friday is when Daddy is picking him up from school and he freaks out before I even drop him off. I am hoping it is just a stage in his life and that he gets over it because it is...

    Seperation-ONly Mommy...

    My husband and I split up a couple of years ago but lived together a while afterwards as neither of us were ready to date anyone else and we wanted to ease our three year old then into the situation. He didn´t notice anything different except that mommy and daddy slept in different beds. When I...

    Please Help...

    I agree that it is not a big problem to take your child to a pretty mild concert. This is something that your kid will enjoy and gives the mother some time with her kid to do something outside of the playground and child things. I would have loved if my parents did cool things like that with...

    3yr old won't stop "hitting" his head...

    I agree with Trina! A three year old is not always emotionally ready to be completely seperated from his parents. Sometimes it is best to have a child that is not ready to be in a playschool environment in a more personal childcare position where it is more one-on-one and they are not so...

    4 year olds and their private parts...

    We live in Costa Rica, so he spends a lot of his time just in his boxers before bed, when it usually happens. So it is kind of different then? How old is your son?

    4 year olds and their private parts...

    I have now written a few threads, and they have helped so much. Thought I would throw this out and hope that someone is in the same boat as me. My little boy, 4 years old, actually gets an erection and will start playing with it when it is like this. He hides it, because he is embarrased, but...

    My Kid Will NOT Eat...

    Thanks so much for the suggestions! I have totally cut down on the snacks after lunch and he has eaten so well over the last week. It actually feels nice to cook and know that he is going to enjoy it(for now).

    Anyone with IUD?...

    I have had an IUD for the last 3 years and have had absolutely NO problem with them. I had a month or so where I was a little irritated by bladder infections, but other than that it has been one less worry. I would wait until you have medical insurance and go to get an ultrasound so that they...

    Embarrasing moments......

    I once was in the swimming pool with my 4 year old son, and he asked me what another guy in the pool was doing. When I said that I did not know, he proceeded to yell that he was a very ugly man. Then asking me if I thought so myself? I couldn´t have felt more embarrased trying to change the...

    any other moms feel this way?...

    I definitly agree. I sometimes get this very nostalgic feeling for my little guy being a baby again, but then I think ¨wait a minute, no more diapers, no more late night feeding, no more carrying in the arms, and more independent play¨. What was I thinking. No, I think it just is the feeling...

    Challenges of a 4 year Old PLEASE HELP...

    Thank yo so much! It all makes sense, it is just be super strict with my discipline habits. You are absolutely right, I donñt do anything until I am completely upset and furious and that is when I decide to discipline. Thanks again!

    My Kid Will NOT Eat...

    I have been fighting with my little boy for the last 3 years everytime we have lunch or dinner. He will have a great breakfast, with yogurt, cereal, brown bread and fruit but then lunch comes around and he is not hungry or refuses to eat anything that I make. I am really tired of fighting for...
