My hubby thinks it is great I
breastfeed- he doesn't have to get up
with a baby... |
|
11:07:43 |
Calebs_Mommy |
haha yeah :P |
|
11:08:09 |
Djbluzclooz |
question. how do i stop isis from
tearing off my clothes when we are
out...and in the house too. My mom is
really supportive but she is getting
less and less supportive the more isis
tries to undress me |
|
11:08:27 |
Calebs_Mommy |
awww.. i don't know, i haven't been to
that stage yet :( |
|
11:08:37 |
whooey22 |
by the time i've feed and changed her my
husband is just waking up to her noises |
|
11:08:42 |
Host_Housepoet |
choooooooooooolllllllllaaaa! |

11:08:49 |

My husband is still weirded out by NIP |
|
11:08:53 |
Mod_ariana |
Djbluzclooz I say you treat any unwanted
behavior the same way |
|
11:09:07 |
Mod_ariana |
Tell her no, we don't do that, etc. |
|
11:09:15 |
Djbluzclooz |
ive tried that |
|
11:09:23 |
CrystalDOF |
ORELAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA |
|
11:09:23 |
Djbluzclooz |
i tried treating it the same why as
biting |
|
11:09:26 |
whooey22 |
my husband gets deffensive because he
doesn't want anyone saying anything to
me, but it hasn't happened |
|
11:09:28 |
Mod_ariana |
It's best to be consistent, she's
probably too young to understand it's ok
at home but not in public |
|
11:09:45 |
Djbluzclooz |
thats why i probably have to stop her at
home too |
|
11:09:49 |
givinguponyou |
my husband loves it when i nip because
that means she isn't fussing to be fed
and attracting attention to us! |
|
11:09:50 |
Mod_ariana |
Also if she's doing that because she
wants to nurse it's a good idea to nurse
her before she gets to that point |
|
11:09:57 |
lifeisstatic |
I think he if afraid of the
confrontation if someone ever did say
anything to me |
|
11:09:58 |

I went through that with Aiden, but I
just taught him the nurse sign and it
helped it all |
|
11:10:08 |
Host_Housepoet |
yes crystal you are pink. |
|
11:10:09 |

|
11:10:10 |

|
11:10:24 |
whooey22 |
when is the best time to start the
signing? |
|
11:10:30 |
whooey22 |
it is something i really want to do |
|
11:10:35 |
givinguponyou |
we've just started at 6 months |
|
11:10:49 |

that is what i found to be the general
recommendation every where |

I knew / knew of a mom who is deaf |
|
11:11:10 |
Mod_ariana |
She started signing to her baby at birth |
|
11:11:14 |
whooey22 |
i'm going to have to get a baby signs
book around christmas time so i can
learn it myself |
|
11:11:20 |
Djbluzclooz |
she turned 19 months yesterday, i know
she understands what i am talking about
but she chooses not to listen sometimes |
|
11:11:29 |
Djbluzclooz |
is it too late to start signing with her |
|
11:11:31 |
mommeeof8 |
How are the baby signs different from
ASL? |
|
11:11:35 |
Host_Housepoet |
no it's not too late |
|
11:11:58 |
Host_Housepoet |
it's really not any different. You try
and teach your child ASL, and what they
pick up they use. |
|
11:12:02 |
givinguponyou |
a lot of the methods use asl |
|
11:12:05 |
Host_Housepoet |
Like for instance, my son does 'more' |
|
11:12:13 |
Djbluzclooz |
does everybody use the same sign...what
do you guys use? |
|
11:12:22 |
Djbluzclooz |
i know the more one |
|
11:12:27 |
Host_Housepoet |
and more is all fingers together on each
hand, then you touch your hands together
at the tips |
|
11:12:32 |
givinguponyou |
i took asl for 4 years in school so we
use asl |
|
11:12:37 |
mommeeof8 |
We have signing for kids and signing is
fun (books). We could start with those? |
|
11:12:38 |
Host_Housepoet |
but my son does it as his pointer
fingers touching together only |
|
11:12:53 |
rainingkisses |
hey everyone |

I got a NIP email from Hyland's just now |
|
11:14:15 |
whooey22 |
i think you should be able to teach
signing at amost any young age, children
pick things up so quickly |
|
11:14:19 |
Host_Housepoet |
it is a web site, where it shows
thousands of different signs in a
quicktime window |
|
11:14:21 |
Host_Housepoet |
it's amazing |
|
11:14:23 |
rainingkisses |
ariana, I'm gonna send you those
pictures right now |

Host_Housepoet |
my son picked up nurse in a weekend. |
|
11:14:48 |
Djbluzclooz |
how old was he? |
|
11:14:56 |
Host_Housepoet |
he was ........ |
|
11:15:14 |
Host_Housepoet |
heh....um...17 months? |
|
11:15:25 |
Djbluzclooz |
ok |
|
11:15:29 |
Host_Housepoet |
then he learned more and please and
thank you |
|
11:15:54 |
givinguponyou |
my baby seems to be 'getting it' quicker
than my husband |
|
11:15:59 |
mommeeof8 |
I wonder if that would help with the
biting thing- teach her to communicate.
She already says a few works we
understand- more, some, eat that, hi
daddy- |
|
11:16:12 |
Djbluzclooz |
i always thought sign language was
interesting |
|
11:18:54 |
mommeeof8 |
The other 7 all went through similar
stages- it just gets frustrating when
you know they are hungry and then they
bite. I ended up in the hospital 9 yrs
ago for three days with mastitis- my # 4
actually bit a chunk out of me when she
was nursing |
|
11:19:11 |
Mod_ariana |
Since we're all interested in
breastfeeding I think we'll all be
intersted in this! |
