Comment on Tell me the worst babyproof door knob cover by Leah

Leah — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 23:11:18 +0000

We used the 2-piece doorknob covers at first with some success, but later our 3 kids (we have triplets, 2b 1g) would beat them (with ball bats, toys, anything that worked) until the 2 pieces came apart, then they would just turn the knob normally & get out. So . . . we wrapped duct tape all the way around the covers, loose enough so they still work normally, but tight enough so the 2 pieces don’t come apart. That has worked pretty well so far.

Comment on Multiracial Pricing Disparity in Doll House Families: Marketing versus Reality by DIonne

I Just bought one of each kind of family. After all everyone race is in my family. I simply did it thinking it would be funny to see her play us as charaters. Who cares about race or the money. It is all in the way you raise your child. The world is made up of everyone….and her dollhouse represents that.

Comment on Recycle Leaked Breastmilk with the Milk Saver by Jessica

I wish I had these with my son! For the first 3 months I leaked like crazy all the time, and especially when he was feeding! To think I could have save so much more milk! After the first few months I quit leaking as much, but still a few months of use is worth it! I definitely understand that these are not meant to be worn as breast pad replacements. They are way to big for that. But definitely a great idea for at home and during feedings, or engorgement while you are preparing to feed or pump. I’m excited to get these for nursing my daughter when she arrives in a few months :)

Comment on Security Blanket Blues by Giggles

So I’m a preschool teacher and today during nap time I found myself wondering about kids/ adult and their attached objects. So I decided to google it and found this site :D My three year old daughter has a blanket she calls her ” stinky blue” she sleeps with it and carries it around the house. I’m 24 years old and have an old pillow I’ve had since I was a baby. My mom made it for me and whenever she comes to visit, she lives 600 miles away, she washes it and fixes any holes it has in it. so sweet of her since I can’t bring myself to wash it. I don’t think I’m super attached to it but I do find it uncomfortable sleeping without it, like if something was missing. My family and close friends know about it and thy dont seem to find it too weird lol. Anyway just wanted to share, thanks for letting me see I’m not the only adult with an old attached object.

Comment on My Newborn Son is Lactating by Angie

My son is just under 4 weeks old and is currently lactating. I am breastfeeding and he was born at full term, which are both circumstances. He was also born with Postaxial Polydactyly, which is where he has an extra joint of finger extra near his pinky’s. Technically they are considering it to be a 6th on each hand because they have nails. In both circumstances it’s said to be a 5% chance of having them. So he must be a VERY lucky boy :) We did everything by the books during our pregnancy, I wonder what else we’re in store for down the road!

Comment on Review: KID’Sleep Wake-up Time Indicator for Children by AJ

AJ — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 23:12:16 +0000

I don’t what to say. I wrote that you turn it on at bedtime, it activates at the preconfigured wake-up time, and then you turn it off for the day. I think that’s how most people need it to function.

Why would you want to preconfigure the bedtime? I suspect in most homes, the bedtime may be at a set time, but the actual time kids get into bed will vary by minutes, a half hour, sometimes longer. So it’s simply part of the bedtime routine for the parent to turn on the device when bedtime begins.

Based on these reviews I bought this clock…but I am quite disappointed. It is not possible to set bedtime and wakeup time…so it seems one must set it everyday…that’s a definite bother for us…any tips?
