I'd say yes- pools can be rough on feet. you may also want them for playground sprinklers, hot sand, rocks in water etc. I am trying to find some now too- [ Reply | More

[ - ] 2 year old with 103 temp. Nanny speaks english but limited in lengthy conversations. She couldn't understand the amount of Tylenol to give. So she gave less dosage. She used common sense and raised three kids. She was able to put a cool cloth on her and call us etc. Today she admitted she was nervous and needed to know exactly what to do.

[ - ] Not to freak everybody out, but the message about getting K G&T letters this week on the DOE site has been replaced with a new message on future public hearings. This is either a good sign that they are done with the placement letters or they are just trying to hide the incriminating evidence. I guess we'll see in the next couple of days... 9 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

I am hoping that they were mailed yesterday (or they will be this morning) and that they had to put the other banner up. It still says early June notification on the G&T page and they would have changed that as well. [ Reply | More

You guys are freaks. So far the DOE has been quite okay with all deadline if you can tolerate a couple of weeks longer here or there. It's not like it's going to take them extra months. [ Reply | More

I really think that it depends on your body and on how you carry -- I have friends who did and friends who didn't. I didn't -- I looked fat, but not PG (and that's what almost everyone said when I "announced" -- "I thought you'd gained weight!"). I think it's the same with gender and how you carry -- I have a DS and a DD and carried the same (high) both times (but I'm short and busty and high-waisted). [ Reply | More
