Subject:Parental Controls Go Wireless Posted by:ngt826. Time:3:27 pm.
With school back in session, it’s a great time to check out AT&T’s new Smart Limits for Wireless service. Parents can set monthly usage and spending limits, decide when a child’s cell phone can make and receive calls, and place restrictions on text messages, talk time, and downloads. According to research firm The Yankee Group, 72 percent of children ages 13 to 17 now carry mobile phones. Smart Limits for Wireless is a great way to offer parents peace of mind and help ensure that these children are working within a budget and using their mobile devices safely and reasonably.For more information visit http://www.att.com/gen/press-room?pid=9122

I'm working on a project for my linguistics class, and I'm wondering if anybody out there would be willing to help me out. If you have children that have already learned how to talk, can you follow the links over to my journal to take a poll? The first poll is for parents who have taught their children spoken English only. The second poll is for parents who have taught their children spoken English and baby sign languageI sincerely appreciate your help with this. Crossposted.

Subject:www.mamarevolution.com/phpbb2/index.php Posted by:mamarevoltion. Time:2:10 pm.
Mamarevolution.com was started in early winter 2004 by four young mamas who needed a place where they belonged. Too young and alternative for babycenter and too old for the teen based online communities, they struck out to make a home for mamas who just didn’t fit in anywhere else. After a few nights of brainstorming and women sharing their talents, Mamarevolution.com was born.Mamarevolution is a pro-choice, feminist community who seeks to support, encourage and educate young women and mothers from all backgrounds and cultures. Our goal is to provide the community and support that is so desperately needed as we fight for our rights as parents and women, and to defeat the social stereotypes that surround young or alternative parents. While we promote breastfeeding and natural parenting, we recognize that each family is unique and has their own set of needs and customs. We respect and support all families and their allies in their quest to raise strong, positive and socially conscious children.

hey everyone. i'm just a little concerned about some stuff and was hoping you could all help me out. my daughter's 7 1/2 months old now and i've been breast feeding this whole time, and just recently my milks' production has lessened. a few months ago, when i'd get off of a eight hour shift at work, i could pump an 8 oz or 9 oz bottle. but lately, i'm lucky if i can pump 4 or 5 oz. that's make me afraid that she's not getting enough. also, about 2 weeks ago, a part of my breast became very tender and soar for a day or two. i'm setting up an appointment to see my gyno and get a breat exam, but i just wanted to see what you think. thanks for taking the time to read this.-love, a concerned mother.ps:x-posted

Well, we went to the doctors, and the doctor checked Nathan out. Apparently his esophagus is STILL developing, and when he eats, his wind-pipe closes up a little bit, making it hard for him to breath. The doctor said that it should get better in time, but if it gets worse, bring him back to the doctors immediately! We have a doctors appointment for the 20th to get his shots, so we will see. Thank you guys for all the advice! Thank you so much for caring!

hey moms! I have a question... I have a 1 month year old some about to be 2 months on the 20th...well, we've noticed that when he is bottlefeeding, he starts to breath hard and then all of a sudden, he starts to weeze. Now, he's doing this at night when he's sleeping. Plus his sleeping pattern has changed. He sleep alot more in the day time and in the night time. Does anyone have a clue what this might be? We are going to the doctors tomorrow, but I was wondering if y'all might know what it is. Thanks!

*12 Things About Pregnancy You'll Remember Forever*1. The way your heart felt when the stick turned pink2. The way your stomach felt after the mere whiff of a cracker3. The look on your husband's/boyfriend's face - and your parent's and friend's - when you told them4. The miraculous flutter of that first kick5. The closeness you felt with your husband/boyfriend as you held his hand and, together, felt the baby move6. A few months later, watching your tummy undulate as the baby played soccer in there7. How hard you laughed over the silly name possibilities: Horace or Mango, anyone?8. The agony (getting yet more blood drawn) and the ecstacy (previews of the baby's face via sonogram) of all those doctor visits9. How much fun it was to march up to the bra counter and ask for a 36D10. How incredible, in every sense of the word, your body looked at its fullest11. How ravenous you were that one night when you wolfed down a pepperoni pizza, a pint of mint chocolate chip ice cream, and a jar of pickled peppers - and still could have gone for more12. How thrilled - and terrified - you felt when the labor pains finally kicked in and you realized your child was almost here...and your life was about to be transformed forever ********************************************************************************In other news...I have a question. Does the tiredness ever go away? I mean, I take a nap whenever Nathan is taking a nap, and that's basically every 3 1/2 hours...(unless I want to be on the computer!) Is there anything I can do for the tiredness? I would really appreciate the help!
