My 4 year old daughter found a book.......? it was a book of "positions"! It was my kama sutra guidebook. I'm beside myself with worry that I have just made a HUGE impact on my daughters thinking. I know guys are curious and most don't think anything of it....however, when I caught her with the book ( I didn't over react, I never made a big deal over it being wrong or what not) I'm not concerned with how I reacted. I did sit her down and I wanted her to talk to me about what she saw and her answers to me seemed to be very mature...too mature. As if I wasn't talking to a 4 year old (well nearly 5yr old) When I asked her what she thought about it, she said she liked looking at naked people. She said it was strange and that the boy and girl (man and woman of course) were doing weird things. And she actually asked me if I had MORE things like that for her to look at! I of course went over the whole Mommy and daddy have private moments together and what we do is not for little girls or boys. (I'm going to have to extend this) | What a lovely mommy you are! Don't worry at all! You handled it brilliantly. I remember finding a porn mag under my parents bed when I was about 4. I was just soooo confused lol. My Mum came in and took it away without any explanation. Even so, it didn't do anything to me! Sex is perfectly natural... surely you had a laugh about it with your partner... saying she wanted to see more lol what a sweetheart! She is just a curious and obviously intelligent little girl :-)
Yes, it is right to explain that Mommys and Daddys give each other special cuddles that only Mommys and Daddys do. To be honest thats plenty info for now. As she gets older she will ask more questions. With my son, I always answered them openly yet suitable to his age. For example, when he asked me why people has sex I said it was to express love and make babies. Later on when he was 10, he asked why do people have sex if they dont want a baby! I said because sex is a loving act and it feels nice. He just took it all in his stride and was like ok! | I was messing around with my wife and I got her in the rear...? Naked chokehold. We got a little carried away watching UFC Fight Night and I choked her out. Was it wrong for me to jump up and yell "Who's your daddy?!?!" I asked this in M&D because I wanted mature answers ; ) | | LOL! (People in the office are looking at me funny ... ) | Would like to hear something to cheer you up and make men jealous? Here's a little lighthearted humour!!

Mom got some pictures back from the developer and one looks like a below the waist to mid-thigh shot of a naked woman. Mom thinks so anyway. The picture is kind of dark and blurry, I'm not completely convinced. I think it might be some kind of shadow that just happens to look like that. We thought someone's picture got into our envelope by mistake but it's on the negative too. It's not either of us nor did anyone else have access to this camera. Anyone have any idea? Mom is freaking out, I want to tell her something. If it's any help, we were taking pictures of the arrangement on daddy's grave one sunny afternoon, the picture is in the middle of that section. I trust everyone will be mature about this. | If it appears on the negatives in between photos from your camera, then it's from your film.
However, a blurry dark shot that might be part of a naked woman might also be any old shadows and light resulting from somebody who pressed the button when they were carrying the camera in their purse or pocket, or accidentally hit it with their arm, its strap, etc. It's really easy to take accidental shots with some cameras. (Just like it's easy to make accidental calls from some cell phones. One of our son's friends used to make "pocket calls" where he'd press some button(s) which would call our number, but the phone was clearly in his pocket.)
My mother in law had a camera that 'fired' too easily. She didn't take three or four pictures from just about every roll. Like yours, they were dark, blurry, and open to interpretation as to the subject matter. | Getting my toddler out of the baby stage..? my toddler is very babyish in many ways, but very mature in other was. Most, if not all, of her babiness is my fault. She still has a bottle, she is not potty trained in any way shape or form, and she sleeps in our bed. For quite a while I was ok with all of this, figuring she'd show signs of being ready to move on on her own...however, she is content with me changing her dirty bum, with drinking her soy milk out of her 'bubba' and with sharing a (rapidly getting smaller) bed with mommy and daddy. Another reason I haven't been very proactive is because I feel that they're only young once, why force them to grow up before they're ready.....however
We're going to have to put her in some sort of daycare in the fall, because I'm going back to school, however most of the pre-preschool programs require her to be potty trained and off the bottle. As well as dance programs and any of the other fun little classes...The sleep thing is just for the sanity of mom and dad :)
So here are my questions:
what age did you get them off the bottle, potty train, and if you had a family bed, get them to spend the whole night in their bed?
what did you find that worked well?
I know I can't traumatize her will all of this at once, so what do you think I should tackle first
and i have the unfortunate lack of the ability to lie, so in september when her pedi asks if she's on the bottle, i'll have to say yes, and get a scolding, because they've already said she's way too old to be on the bottle at her 2 year visit (she's 2 years, 6 mnths as of yesterday btw).
So far I have tried:
-taking away the bottle cold turkey. she didn't drink anything for four days. we gave it back.
-taking off her pants, and letting her roam around the house naked, in the hopes that if she pees herself, she'll not like it and want to use the potty. she didn't like standing in a wet puddle, but didn't care enough to go in the pot.
-also, in potty training, we've tried to sit her on the potty for a while in front a movie with juice. she won't go. she'll hold it and go in her diaper later on.
-if she comes in our bed in the middle of the night, and we put her back in bed, she'll cry till she throws up. same thing if I leave her room before she's asleep.
thanks...
(ps this all came about because my aunt and cousin almost had a heart attack when they found out that she was still on the bottle, while i didn't think it was that big of a deal...but apparently it is...) | I would do....bottle, bed and then potty. When it comes on potty training, she is still on track age wise, so I would watch her for readiness. She is clearly exhibiting no signs, and at 2 that is ok still.
Bottle....offer a sippy cup with every meal, and slowly take away one bottle that she typically has. Even if she goes on a thirst strike, offer none. She will do use the cup when she absolutely has to. I would also take her to the store and buy her the most gorgeous sippy cups money can buy, let her pick them out so she is excited about them, whether they be princesses, dora, elmo etc.
After she has been successful for a few weeks off the bubba...go get yourself a good book about sleep training with toddlers. I love Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Guy, by Marc Weisbluff, but there are other good ones out there. Read up, and be consistent. DO NOT give in. When you give in you teach your guy that whatever behavior that they used to wear you down, worked. You have just reinforced and encouraged that behavior. You may have a few truly hard weeks, but if you can be consistent, you will be loving your bed very soon and wondering why you did not do it sooner. (At least that is how I felt)
Potty...wait until she shows some more signs, since she is on track age wise, I would not stress this one yet. |
