I'm a first time mom, so sorry if yall think this sounds like a dumb question, but my son is 3 weeks & I know on average newborns should eat between every 3 to 4 hours.

Well my son doesn't wake up every 3 hours, so I wake him up to feed, but he doesn't always take a lot, should I stop waking him up & wait for him to wake up? Or what should I do?

That's not a dumb question at all! I was always told to wake them up to eat that young. They're still getting in their routine so they might want to sleep more than they eat sometimes. Also when they're that young they can get dehydrated quickly, so they need to eat often!

I would say for the first 2 months yes wake him up to eat. However everyone is different and has their different routines. I was told they need to eat that often for the first 6 months @teamblue040416.

I would say wake him up only because my nephew has been hospitalized a few times for not eating enough and being under weight. It was because his mom wasn't waking him up to feed him, she only feed him when he was awake.

Ok, so my friend is wanting to get pregnant but..... Her fiancé does not want kids, at lease for another 3-5 years he said... so she came up with the idea to have me pee on a stick for her and show it to him so that he’ll be comfortable with not wearing a condom and finishing in her.. basically the whole idea is to make him think she’s pregnant already...... so I do this favor for her or should I tell my girl to chill? He and my husband are friends through us and he’s going to invite him over tonight and run it by him...

Mommas who are separated from their childrens dad. If my sons father is to get our son every other Friday-Sunday, but then tells me halfway through the week he can't take him Friday until Saturday due to taking up an optional shift at work, can I legally tell him he either takes him Friday at his ordered time or doesn't get him? He's constantly cancelling whole weekends or taking our son a quarter of his ordered time. He also isn't following the meets on the order. Almost every Sunday he has him I get a message that he doesn't have a car so I have to get my son, or he tells me i have to run him out there. I'm already having cut hours at work and getting no child support from him since he's been continuously in and out of work.
