Help Calm Me

I am curious/wondering if maybe I'm not crazy. I'm slightly worried that I may be pregnant. After having unprotected sex with my husband, I realized that we were really close to ovulation time (one of the few times we've done it since I went off the pill...due to the fact I didn't want to go back to the clinic, I know, my own mistake). In the past couple days, I've started getting sick (nauseated, upset tummy, couldn't drag my butt out of bed yesterday), getting real senative to smells (nearly threw up last night when my son was eating his...

Help! My Baby Cries All the Time.

My 3 mo. Old little boy cries the majority of the day. In the mornings he is happy and content to lay on the floor and play. As the day goes on he gets more and more whiny, escalating to an unrelenting scream in the evening. We switched formulas and helped alot at first but now it's starting again. He's too old for colic. The doctor thinks it might be acid reflux. Should we ask for a prescriptionfor it? Does anyone have experience giving the acid reflux meds?

Question About Letting Baby Cry Himself to Sleep

My baby boy is 9 months old. He was breastfed but is now on solid food and drinks formula. He wakes up 1-2 times a night to drink formula and goes back to sleep. He usually goes down around 9:00 p.m. and sleeps until 8:00-9:00 the next day, waking up during the night 1-2 times. I walk him to sleep. Lately he has been waking up around 5:30 a.m., drinking some bottle, and acting very sleepy but fighting it. I walk him but he fusses and won't let himself just drift back to sleep. Twice I have just layed him back in his crib, made sure he...

Separation Anxiety at Four Months?

My four month old will not let other people hold her let alone babysit her. She will smile and play with relatives(people she sees often) but if they hold her or she is left alone with them, she screams. We tried to leave her with her grandparents for a couple hours and she screamed the whole time, refused to eat and would not nap. Is is possible for her to have separation anxiety this young?
