What should a baby wear in the snow shes 5 months?
So far shes got a long sleeve vest leggings, long sleeve top, short sleeve top and cords when we go out she’d have her snow suit and a very thick blanket (its my old one for camping lol) and her cellur blanket. I have a foot muff but because of all the layers she tends to be uncomfortable is this ok?

Martin answers:
Oh my goodness your baby must be hot! Most baby snow suits are extremely warm to begin with, so I don’t think you actually need to put so many layers on underneath and above it. I would probably dress her in a warm, regular outfit, put on the snowsuit, hat, and then keep a blanket too. We actually used a bunting on her carseat and carried that in and out of the house, and she was always just wearing normal clothes under the bunting and would still manage to sweat she was so warm. They can over heat!

Caring for an 18 month old boy?
A family friend is having a a baby about two months premature. Obviously this baby will be very tiny and sick, so she will be staying in the hospital for a while (perhaps a couple of months). The hospital is about a half hour away drive away, and the couple will be spending a lot of time there with the new baby.
So I was asked to babysit their 18 month old son. He is a sweet little kid as far as I know. Every time i’ve spent time with him, he has been very quiet and just plays with his toys.
I work at a summer camp and have extensive training and experience with kids age 5 to 16. I was just wondering what else I should expect from a child this young, and any tips or ideas on how to keep him well cared for while he’s with me.

Martin answers:
Do your best to spend time with the family before the baby gets there if the situation allows.
Find out what his schedule is right now..Baths,meals, naps, play time, outside time etc…
Be sure to write down any allergies! At that age he should be eating regular food instead of baby food. Find out his favorite things to do, favorite cartoons etc.

I have a baby by a serial cheater! What would you do?
This will be a bit long but worth reading to answer my question. So im a 3year college student. When i was a freshman I met my bf on the bus during springg break (i know a bus guy). He had been in adoption since he was 5 and never been adopted, raped as a child, beaten, and jforced to join a gang at 11- sad huh. He had just found his parents and was sleeping on their floor. Anyway we eventually started dating and i helped him get into school at my university. He said all the right things and just seemed like he needed guidance in his life and he made me happy.That’s just the person i am, i help others. I lost all of my friends because they didnt like him and I just had nobody to be there for me but him. this last. I basically was the man in the relationship, i provided, nurtured, paid bills ( i know-stupid). This last August i gave birth to our beautiful baby. And I was happy but I just felt like he was up to something dirty. And he was.
FOR THOSE WHO WANT ME TO GET TO THE POINT ALREADY. When our baby was just 2 weeks old I found out that he had been cheating on me with internet females, older woman, and the worst people that called themselfs friends of mine! That hurt me worse then birth. He had been cheating on me throughout our entire relationship amd i was almost completely oblivious. I guess i needed hard evidence to shake me. An boy did it. So now here i am with a 3 month year old baby and where is he? Hes at boot camp for the army. We have a joint bank account so he’s taking care of me and the baby. But now that I found out im hurt pissed and all that stuff. So what to do. Well Friends say get a bootycall to help forget him, move out and do my own thing, or they just dont know. Well to me all of those are badass ideas. I AM NOT PLANNIG TO BE WITH HIM! I love him yes! BUT I LOVE ME MORE. To me if i leave then he’s getting away with this. So I figured since i took care of him for the past 2 years I should let him do what he said what he wants to do which is take care of me and our child. BUT I reaaaaaaly dont want to be with him ugggh how do i make this work! he is a pathilogical lier, I think he may have a sexual addiction, and he’s a serial cheater. I even found out that he had been going by this other name (like an alter ego). I think that he has deeeeeep issues that make him this way. that dosent justify any of this though. He says he wants to go to counseling but Im soooo sure Im done i deserve better. but I have to finish school and he has all the funds to make my life easier . . . i know that sounds like a gold digger huh lol. Im really not im just trying to get out of this situation quick and easy and my baby still know her father. I really am done with relationships for a goodwhile and all i want to do is continue my education. Im fine with leaving without his money or ever seeing him again, but we have a child so i feel stuck. There so much more to this story and i can write a freggin book lol so anyway plz your opinions. Do I stay and let him think were together? (maybe he’ll get his issues worked out although i will still never want to be with him) Or do i leave and struggle with a child while he continues his orgies hardly seeing his child and having all the military security in the world?
