Can my 3 1/2 month old be eating too frequently?

He usually eats about 5-6oz every 2-2 1/2 hours during the day. He'll sleep from 11pm-5am without waking up, however. I know there is no rule about how much/frequently babies should eat, but all of the guidelines I've looked at said he should be able to go 4-5 hours in between feedings at this point. My mom was watching him for a few hours last weekend and decided she was going to feed him rice cereal (and before you jump on me, I KNOW he's not supposed to have it yet - my mom just thinks she knows best). He obviously wasn't ready for it, because he just spit it right back out. I'm not sure how much he weighs, since we haven't been to the doctor since his 2 month check-up. Everyone says he is a big boy. He's not very chubby, just healthy and tall. He doesn't spit up a lot or anything, so I guess I just want some reurance that it's normal :) Thanks!

Could this be diabetes? Is it worth it to go get checked?

What you describe actually sounds like textbook thyroid problems. Diabetes would definately be in the differential diagnosis list, but thyroid problems would be at the top of the list. I would definately get it worked up. Both can be easily identified through simple blood tests.

What is the drag coefficient equation as you go higher and higher in elevation until you reach space?

As a projectile goes through the atmosphere there must me a kind of simplified coefficient change, that's a good approximation. For example when a rocket is launched to space, the drag force must change when it goes through each of the atmosphere's layers.

Where is pacman on the list for best p4p fighters of all time?

I'd rank him third behind Sugar Ray Robinson and Henry Armstrong. Remember, however, that Pac is still very much active and at the peak of his career, and before he hangs up his gloves, he can very well snatch No. 2 from Armstrong.

Is there a way to repair this rug?

There's a shag rug that has been in my basement for 15 years. Now, my basement is unfinished and is a bit damp in the summer but only on the walls. The rug itself is in pretty good shape but it does smell a tad bit damp and gross haha, and the bottom is a little shredded. Is there a way to clean it up so I can use it in my bedroom upstairs?

Vaginismus? Disgusted after ?

I have no idea. I have a similar problem, I was molested when I was a kid though, so I'm sure that is part of my problem. I always tense up and my boyfriend can't really me fully, in fact it usually hurts and we have to stop. I've never had an with him, he tries, but I never let myself "go" when he's touching me, I end up trying to avoid pleasure. I know this isn't really an answer to your question, but maybe it will help if you know you're not alone.

Why are some people choosing to conflate "mixed messages" with self control?

TRADITIONALLY women have been igned the duty of ual "gatekeeping". As society begins to see the ism and inherent hypocrisy in the Old Ways, they will die a natural death. Women are starting to be seen as full-fledged, ual, adult human beings. Out-of-wedlock births no longer carry the same social stigma as in the past. But social change is slow, it takes many generations. The old erroneous umptions about human uality are being knocked down one by one. Like a house of cards, they fall, one after another, because there is nothing concrete to support them. We need to re-build, and that takes time.

Inter-faith marriage (Lutheran and Jewish)?

Judaism is not a hobby. It is not a trend. If you are dumb enough to covert because you are "slowly falling in love with it" then you have problems.

Menopause Question?

My mother is forty-eight and has recently been dry heaving and vommiting for about two weeks. Could that be a symptom of menopause as well? She had a heavy load of bleeding, and was anemic until she had some blood transfusion at the hospital. The hospital told us everything else was fine, but she should go check out a gynocologist if she started to bleed again. Any help please?

Where are all the dominican men in Philly? Also, is it true Dominican men do not like Blk women?

I'm a 24 year old Blk female who lives in Philly. We have a large (huuuuge) population of Puerto Ricans, but i've noticed not alot of Dominican males. I find them to be sooo y. So where are they? (Those who live in or around Philly will probably be more equipped to answer this question!)

My cat is constantly scratching his ears...?

just because they are pink inside doesn't mean there aren't ear mites. ear mites cause ear infections and the dirt builds up over time. you should take him to the vet to get medicine for his ears. and i'll tell you what, its not fun giving it to them either, i had to give it to all my cats, and they hated it.

Do you have a boat for sale in E. Med. Turkey, Greece, Croatia, etc?

Hi, I am a private individual looking for a fibregl boat,approx. 23' - 30', and can pay �2,500 - �6,000. I have had many boats in the UK and know what to expect for that price. There are a lot of web sites and brokers, but they only seem to bother with newer and bigger boats. So if you have a boat out there and would like to sell please post a reply with the make, length, location and price. Thanks for reading, arthur_calland@yahoo.co.uk

I left my mini lathe running for 30 minutes (whoops), could this have damaged it?

I recently left my mini lathe running accidentally for about 30 minutes. When I got back it was extremely hot, but still operates fine. I am a woodworker and know nothing about the internal workings of electric motors, bearings, etc. The lathe is nearly brand new. Could this have damaged my lathe, or decreased its life expectancy? Thanks.

What would be the result of this hypothetical scenario?

I'd just stare at the screen with my mind all over the place, celebrating the (hypothetical) fact that finally I knew for sure if they were, but also a little skeptical of their intentions, but they're part wolf and animals don't lie. The world would be thrown into a panic about intelligent wolves, though, or be insanely curious and want to experiment on them to see if they're real. it would be a sad day for the warewolf.

Do You Agree with Samantha Geimer That US. Prosecutors "Need to Let Go" of Roman Polanski's Case?

If he was a black gash remover living in a slum would you want it dropped then? I doubt it. So no I do not agree with you. Just because he is famous does not and should not put him above the law ever. i thought in US every man was equal before the law

Why couldn't Israel just let Russia win?

and finaly do something good. But you know you can never expect anything good from them. Now I'm hoping Croatia beat England.

How to Track Down a Family Member?

There are ways of tracking people down by using the person social security number. This man is your grandfather, someone in your family should be able to find his number somewhere. An old tax return, a pay stub, something that will show his number will help you find him. The web sites will charge around $20 to find out where that number is in the country. I am not sure but they might nitify him that someone is looking. Give it some thought.

What to do with my future?

I think you should stay with your family because it sounds like they need you. I know you’re finishing high school and you want to move away and “meet new people and have a good time.” Trust me when I say you have plenty of time for that, your family always comes first. For now you should go to community college (where you can always meet new people) for the first semester or two and take your core courses such as English, Math, social science etc. That way when your mom is done with her chemotherapy and things get better you can transfer to the school of your choice, if that‘s still what you want to do. You have been waiting to go away for college for a long time but everything happens for a reason. Stay with your family, I’m sure your mom will be thankful.

How long does it take to recover from surgery? Specifically appendicitis?

She should be quite safe to go to Disneyland about a week after the stitches are removed- but the question really should go to her doctor for the recommendation. You wouldn't want to go while she still has stitches, no. As far as the blood when she goes to the bathroom- that sounds like a small hemorrhoid or a tear. You really do need to let your parents know about that. It could just be from constipation after the surgery, and her straining to go has caused a small tear, which would heal on it's own if matters get some relief. Your parents will know best how to help with that. It's not dangerous, as in causing death or serious illness- but it is something that needs to be taken care of before it becomes a big problem. Just tell your parents. It's embaring, but nobody dies of embarment. And your parents already know where all the birthmarks and freckles are, so they aren't likely to curl up and croak from hearing about this.

If someone wants to die who are you to tell them that they shouldn't. And why?

Honestly that life belongs to the person that has lived it. If you conclude that suicide is the LOGICAL thing to do than that would be the best choice for you. Most Asian cultures don't really have many laws or even as many moral issues as western culture. So for the most part thoughts on the matter are just acculturated and learned.

Does being a gentleman with your girl a bad idea?

Any decent girl would love for her man to do those things for her. Now, if she doesn't like it maybe she is not the girl for you. Don't change who you are.
