Camping with 13 Month Old

Hi, My husband really wants to take our 13 month old camping this spring and summer. I wanted to see if anyone has any experiences, good or bad, they'd be willing to share. What did you do for sleeping arrangements? We are going to start with a park close to home, in case things get out of hand. Thanks!

Used Cribs? a Yes or No?

I am getting ready to shop for my first baby crib. I recently read the book "Baby Bargins" and they recommended NEVER getting a used crib. I know older cribs don't fall under the new safety regulations but what about cribs within the last few years? What have other moms heard or experienced?

Blankets in Cribs

I have a 7 1/2 month old little boy and I was wondering when did you mommy's and daddy's start putting blankets in the crib with your little ones?

I tried to let him cry it out but I dont want him...

Swaddling, Pacifier and CIO

My daughter is 5 and a half months old and i was thinking of trying the Ferber CIO method with her soon. I still swaddle her as its the only way she'll fall asleep and she also won't fall asleep without a pacifier. So getting her down for the night is a piece of cake. I put her down between 8:30 and 9 but anywhere between 11:30 and 1 she wakes up looking for her pacifier. She wakes up almost every hour after that but usually goes back to sleep when i give her the pacifier. Then around 4:30 she seems totally awake and the only way to get her...

Moving from Co-sleeping to Big Boy Bed

My son is almost 2 1/2 and we have been co sleeping since birth since it was easier for me because he was breast fed. We have long past that stage and I continued to co sleep with him because I feel guilty and a bit selfish on my part since I work all day. Its our time for me to snuggle with him but he is now too big and is offically a bed hog. We have had a Big Boy Bed for a while now and the only time he uses it is as a trampoline. We have tried making it a big thing for him, tried to get him excited about it,even tried bribes, but...
