    Congratulations.

    The final hours are the hardest. Get some rest now, because sleep will soon be a very valuable and rare commodity.

    Make sure you take some time off work to support your wife (if your work allows).

    I remember the day our first was born. She fell asleep for 3 hours right after she was born. We ordered Pizza for the entire floor (nurses, Dr.'s other patients) and I remember my wife and I just looked at each other and started laughing and laughing. Great moment.

    Happy New Year to all the babies and moms with babies waiting to come out.
    And the dads and families too.

    I had a couple colds while preggo and no worries.
    Baby probably doesnt even know you have a cold.
    Except of course when you cough! :D
    Gives baby a little jiggle.
    I know colds are worse later in pregnancy when you are having a hard time breathing as it is cause theres no room for you lungs and everything is squshed. But I asked my midwife and she said a teeny bit of nose spray would be ok. So I took a bit. Helped. Adria is fine. Got 10 fingers and 10 toes.

    We are currantly going through some tough times teething.
    Adria has 2 bottom teeth. Her gums are positivley bulging on the top.
    She is miserable. And to top it all off I know shes in pain cause she bit me.
    And when I broke her latch she screeemed in pain. Poor girl. Poor nipple!

    Anyone have any suggestions.
    They are saying not to use Anbesol or Oragel or other numbing stuff.
    Something to do with a blood disorder and also risk of choking.
    I rubbed some liquid Tylenol on her gums and then gave her a dose.
    Hope that helps.
    the person below me smells like cat pee and raisins...

    Meh, people say and think alot of crazy things, for example, my mother in law told me to rub Brandy on my son's gums when he was teething. Umm no thanks. I use baby ambesol on Joey with recommendations from my doctor.

    I was told by a dentist and doctor NOT to put tylenol directly on to the gums as the sugar in the tylenol is just awful on the gums and teeth.

    gen - We haven't hit the teething stage yet, thank god! I have heard of people using tylenol and also hyland's teething tablets, which are homeopathic and disolve quickly in the baby's mouth.

    lady - I had bad allergies at the end of my pregnancy and I took an antihistimine, which helped me feel a lot better. I was told not to take decongestents, since they are known to raise blood pressure. The cold won't hurt the baby, though. I remember being worried about that, too! But the doctor said the baby is not hurt by a cold. :) Don't feel bad asking questions! Ask as many as you want! We are happy to answer them! :)

    Happy new year everyone!! :)

    Gen

    Have you tried freezies for her gums? The things you take right out of the freezer and they chew on them? Jack loves em

    Also, our Dr. recommended Infants Tylenol drops. It works pretty well with Jack. He'll usually take the Tylenol, (very willingly) then take his bottle and go to sleep. Obviously, every Dr., and baby, is different. Our Dr. was okay with Orajel, though we rarely use it. We also found a vibrating teether, made by John deere, shaped like an ear of corn, that Jack likes.

    Talking about colds/flu subject that lady talked about, well, I am actually sick right now. I think it is a cold/sinus combo, which sucks. I got sick on New Years and still feel pretty bad. I got a headache, ear ache, cough, sore throat, running/stuffy nose. I feel miserable! I want to take something, but I'm going to wait until I see my midwife tomorrow. I also read information about labor/delivery from the hospital I was going to, and they said that it is a sign/symptom of labor or something like that.

    still waiting for my daughter to come out. Any day now!

    and Happy New Years to everyone out there! :D

    X celebrated his 2 week birthday yesterday! :)

    I came back to work yesterday and it was nice to get a little bit of a break. PBW needs to take a break, but she won't allow herself to do that yet.

    Baby sleeps a lot during the day and is up a lot at night. We're trying to reverse his schedule, but we haven't had any luck just yet.

    This morning, we fed him, changed him, held him and rocked him, yet he continued to cry. Is there an underlying issue or is it normal for him to just cry?

    He might be gassy. If he continues, try Mylicon Gas Drops, they saved my life when I worked in daycare for a few years.

    If he's formula fed and the drops don't work, maybe try changing the formula. If he's breast fed, maybe it is something that PBW ate that is affecting his stomach.

    Good Luck!
