question

Please no harsh remarks. Quickly explain my first son was born two months early due to lack of help we were homeless when he was born and when he was discharged from the hospital...plan was to take him to my mom's when he was discharged well that didn't happen DCFS took him before he ever got to leave the hospital. A few months later almost completed our service plan moving on to being able to do trial home placement in a month or less. Well told DCFS (wasn't hiding it just wasn't mentioning it unless asked) that I was pregnant our case worker right off the bat said if our current case wasn't closed when this one is born the they will take him. However everything that caused us to lose our first son has been corrected can they still take his sibling when born just because we have an open case...even though the situation is totally reversed (we have a home, and steady jobs) so would they still be able to take this one when he's born?...

Trigger. Our precious boy

Trigger. Our precious boy Last night, December 8th, 2015, at 9:58pm, our sweet precious baby boy was born sleeping. We spent 5 wonderful hours with him: holding him, talking to him, singing to him, mourning him, praying for him, and weeping over him.

At What Age Should a Child Make Their Own Breakfast?

Make your own breakfast! At what age do you think a child should be making their own breakfast? I have a 10 year old and I think he is perfectly capable of making himself breakfast. It doesn't take rocket science to put some waffles into the toaster, or microwave some pancakes. My husband insists that he needs to have breakfast made for him because if we left it up to him he wouldn't eat enough and it would take him forever.

SLEEP TRAINING So.. we hired a sleep consultant to try to help our baby soothe himself to sleep and we got a sleep training plan for him. It's basically putting him down in his crib, sound machine on, and letting him cry for 3 minutes before going into the room to comfort him. The plan is to repeat this until he falls asleep by himself (which I believe will take us the whole night, if we are lucky) I tried something similar when he was about 2 months old. I started at 7 pm and gave in at 2 am with an angry, exhausted baby. At that point we were both crying! 😭 Some of you told me he was too young to attempt anything. Here I am, 2 months later, still bedsharing and nursing to sleep. I still wonder what is best for him and if he is still too little to make him go through that stress, even if it's 3 minutes at a time. Anyone who's been through this? I'd appreciate your comments.
