Budget - What Do You Pay for Groceries Each Month?

I am curious. I think of myself as a pretty savvy shopper...SAHM who checks out the ads, uses coupons, shops sales, etc. I may not be as good as the "coupon Mom" who runs her own internet site on how to shop for groceries, but I think I do well. My question, what do you spend each month on groceries? (Food, eating out, toiletries, household items like detergent, etc. and "super club" purchases like CostCo and Sam's)? So ALL food and day-to-day items? And how many in your family? I thought I was doing pretty well for our family of...

HELP- 18 Month Old Measuring Small

My daughter is almost 19 months but we had her 18 month checkup today. She weighed 21 lbs 8 oz and measured in the 9th percentile. I have not been worried about her weight (even though I knew she was small) because she ate a blanced diet (fruits, veggies, beans, cheese, etc.) and is meeting her milestones. She even has a little bit of a "belly." The only thing she really doesn't want to eat is meat. She has been known to out-eat my 4 year old son from time to time. The doctor, however, is concerned as her percentile has dropped. She...

5 Month Old Allergic to Both Milk & Soy - What to Feed Him?

My 5-month old son has had a pretty severe case of eczema for over 5-wks. We've switched formulas several times and just had blood test done to confirm allergies. We are now trying Neocate, which is very expensive and he does NOT like the taste. Does anyone have a suggestion for an alternative formula? He's allergic to: milk, soy, wheat, egg whites, peanuts, codfish. I've had people recommend goat's milk - but my research indicates this is not a good alternative due to lack of vitamins/nutrients that infants need.

Help Needed for Constipated Child

My son is almost 9 and has been suffering with tummy aches and constipation for a couple months now. When he first started complaining about "not feeling good" I didn't connect the constipation with it because as far as I know, he hasn't had trouble with it before. For about the past week now, he has had trouble passing stools because they are big and hard....sorry I know this is gross, but we're all moms right? Anyway, it's about killing me to hear him whimpering in the bathroom as he's trying to go and he's afraid it will happen at...

My son just turned one last week and the doctor reccommended we start transitioning him from Formula to Whole milk. So last week I started giving him half formula and half whole milk.

Trouble with Eczema

Hi Moms, I was wondering what kind of lotion to use for my 3 year old with eczema? He was always had very mild eczema that I have had under control. I always put lotion on when he got clothes on in the morning and when he gets pjs on at night. I use Johnsons bedtime lotion. I don't know if it because of the dry weather lately but he had a flare up that I can't get rid of. So if anyone has a lotion that they would recommend it would be helpful. Thanks.
