2 Qs...Bouncers And Teddy Bears.

SOOOO.... 2 questions... 1~ My DD is 3 months old. Is this too young to get her a bouncer? I want to get one of those activity bouncers...She can sit on her own (she needs help getting there... but once she's sitting she is good.) and has excellent head control... She also loves to "stand" for up to 5 minutes at a time. (she is standing on her own, just uses us for balance. lol) She has a floor gym that she likes... but she gets MAD if she is laying down too long. She wants to be sitting or standing. We put her in her bouncy chair, but...

Transitioning from a Crib to a Bed - When??

Hi all! I have a 25 mo old daughter. She sleeps in her crib for naps and at night. She rarely cries at night (knock on wood) and sleeps all the way through...once she gets to sleep! We are considering transitioning her into a big girl bed, but realize there's no real push either. She falls asleep almost immediately for her naps - maybe within 5 minutes - BUT - at night - I lay her down and she plays for up to 45 minutes - not sits and plays - throws herself from one side of the crib to the other. Stomps at the wall- throws her stuffed...

Kids Sharing Room

Hello Mamas, I have two questions, please help! I'm expecting a little boy in September and he will be sharing a room with my 3 1/2 year old step-daughter. I need ideas on how to decorate their room! I want to paint it and decorate it without it looking silly, while allowing each of them their own part of the room. I was thinking of going with two colors that are gender neutral and just decorating her side girly and his side baby. I don't have the best interior decorating skills and could really use the help from you guys (gals)! ...

Infant Who Insists on Sleeping on Her Belly

I have a 6 month old beautiful girl who recently began turning over in her bassinet. I wake up in the middle of the night for feeding or to check on her and she is face down asleep. I am worried because I have heard so many horror stories of crib death, suffication, etc. I have tried putting the body guards but she still manages to turn around. Does anyone have any suggestions or experiences like this. Should I be worried.

Transitioning Out of the Swaddle

My baby boy is 6 months old. He has slept swaddled since he was born. He is a good sleeper with the swaddle on. He has given up his middle of the night feeding and we usually only have to go in to give him his paci a couple of times a night. A few days ago I decided to leave his arms out of the swaddle so that he can get used to sleeping that way. It has been horrible! He will only take naps for 30 minutes at the most. I am having to rock him longer to get him to sleep. I cannot lay him down drowsy but awake for naps. He will only go to...

Moving from Crib to Twin Bed

Hi Mamas, My DD just turned 2 and we decided it was time for a big girl bed. So, last night we moved the crib out ans set up the twin size bed. At first she was really excited about it when she came in and saw it (she spent last night at Grandpa's house). But, when I went to lay her down for a nap in it she started throwing a fit and it didn't take her long to figure out she could get down off the bed even though we have the railing on it. Any ideas on how to get her to start sleeping in her bed? Thanks!
