All mothers realise that for the baby's sake, they must do this, but the danger is that not everyone in families heeds this advice and it isn't just uncomfortable for the unsupported baby - It's very dangerous. No-one would deliberately risk a baby's health but many folk don't know it isn't just about the baby's comfort, it's about possible - and highly likely - brain damage, which...

I see it every day- babies breastfeeding, but not gaining an ounce a day. How can this happen? Breastfeeding is the way to feed babies, and babies are born knowing how to latch-except when they are tired, sleepy or drugged from labor or a c-section. Even if your baby is feeding 8-12 times a day, does this guarantee he is gaining weight? Nibbling or Drinking? It would seem simple enough to look down at your nursing baby and say, "He's drinking alright." But when you are a first time mom, you might not have a clue as to whether your baby is really drinking. Some babies are content to nibble the hour away without getting anything to drink. Do you listen for swallowing? Some babies are as silent as a...

Not every type of crib they produce was recalled—just the “Cabana,” “Hudson,” and “Pinehurst” cribs. These cribs were being sold at baby-centered establishments such as Babies R Us, USA Baby, Beautiful Beginnings, and Buy Buy Baby, just to name a few. The cribs posed a strangulation hazard partially because of the type of wood from which they were manufactured. Apparently, the type of wood being used to build the cribs is genetically notorious for breaking easily. When the slats in the side rails of the cribs broke, it became easy for children to slip their heads between the gaps and become trapped, potentially suffocating. All of the cribs were manufactured in either China or Vietnam...
