Babies

Newborns should sleep on their backs, in a crib, alone, without any fluffy/soft bedding or toys. The National Institutes of Health sponsors a "Back to Sleep" initiative describing the benefits of sleeping in this position and under these circumstances. The major benefit is that newborns sleeping on their backs have a much decreased risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).

I'm 15 weeks pregnant. And i haven't feel him/her move yet. I'm so excited to feel him/her. Anyways i think you should feel your baby move by 4 to 5 months. ^^

With proper neonatal care, a baby born at 29 weeks has a good chance of living a healthy life. However, each case is different as per each baby's different circumstances, and usual results may not always be what happens in each case.

You can often tell just by placing your hand on the child's forehead. Or take its temperature with an underarm thermometer (underarm measurements are usually one or two degrees low, so add a degree or two).

A baby does not have a fever unless its temperature is above 100 degrees F / 37.7 degrees C in the morning or over 101 degrees F / 38.2 degrees C in the evening.

If the baby is less than 6 months, then call the doctor. If there is nothing else wrong with the child it probably will recover by itself. Fever is a sign that the body is fighting some illness.

Some people resume their normal cycle 1-2 monts after birth, and some not for 6 months. If you are nursing it could be a year or more depending on how long you nurse. I nursed my last child for 13 months and nver had a period until 2 months after i stopped nursing. You can go to your doctor to get a hormone to get it going if you want. Hope this helps.

If your baby is shaking constantly, even when apparently warm enough, you should consult your doctor as soon as possibleto rule out any causative factors, such as positional discomfort, or allergies to materials, food, or medication.

If you are having chest pain you shouold go straight to the ER as there are too many reasons to go into here, some serious and others not so serious, only a doctor can tell you the precise reason you have it.

This depends on why you need the help and if it's the woman who have problems or the man. Consult your doctor. There is no universal medicine that can do this. Fertility drugs has to go through the doctor since they can have serious side effects that can harm you.

Go to a doctor straight away as this could be symptomatic of gastroenteritis, a major cause of death of babies. In the meantime give plenty of fluids -- the best would be something with electrolytes in it. Highly dilute lemon barley water for example. Nothing concentrated. Make sure the water is boiled and sterilize rattles, dummies, etc., by boiling or placing in sterilization mix (rinse well with extra boiled water).

The baby comes out of the frontal private area called the vagina, located below where the penis is on a male body. The hole stretches like spandex, to let something bigger come out. The hole is as small as a dime and grows to a foot to let the baby out.

January 31st 2011? Your conception date would be roughly May 9th, give or take a few days. However, it's difficult to accurately say when your conception date was. I suggest speaking to your doctor, midwife or obstetrician to get a better idea.

At that point it's mostly lung development. The lungs have to mature to in order for the baby to breathe on it's own. Also, to gain a little more weight so he/she can start to support it's own body temperature better. It's just a "neediness" factor. They thrive best at full term, but can "survive" with help from heaters/oxygen/etc. before that.

Humans should drink between 6 and 8 glasses of water per day.

The position does not matter in early months of pregnancy. It is preferred to sleep either on left or right lateral position. But once you go to sleep, you have no control over the position. Sleeping on your back may compress the abdominal vena cavae. From ages that has not created much problem.

There are many causes of cough and depending on clinical examination some investigations may be required to make a definite diagnosis. But severe cough leading to vomiting should make one suspect whooping cough.

28 week old fetus approximates at 14-16 inches (35cm) in length and about 2.5 pounds (1.1kg) in weight. The average lengths and weights vary from baby to baby and from one pregnancy to another.

Baby oil is simply scented mineral oil. Mineral oil is often used as a laxative and will most likely cause diarrhea.

The scents or perfumes added to baby oil are most likely non-toxic as baby oil is meant to be liberally applied to the skin- and our skin absorbs at least 50% of what is placed on it.

Unless you or the child swallowed a whole lot of it, it should be non-toxic.

While in the womb the baby gets everything it needs from the mother through the umbilical cord.

It could be later today it could be 3 weeks from now. Just because you are dilated to something doen'nt mean labor is anytime soon...sorry.

I have been dilated to a 3 for 2 weeks now :(

Enfamil Lipil , but every baby is different and you may have to try different brands until you find one that doesn't upset his tummy. I recommend you buy the smallest can (powdered) of Enfamil Lipil that way if it doesn't work for him at least you didn't spend $20+ on formula you won't be able to use. I liked powdered formula better because it doesn't go bad as fast as canned. Also remember that soon (at 1 year) he's going to be able to drink Whole Milk!

Yes, you can . Baby lotion is gentle, light and quickly absorbed. However, this may be insufficient if you have dry skin or your skin is in an environment which is drying. Also, baby lotion contains no sun protection so you may need to apply additional sun screen on top. So while you can use baby lotion on your face, it might be insufficient for the exposure that our skin undergoes.
