My daughter is 6 weeks old and this morning she smiled at me for the first time. Not one of those gas smiles either, a real genuine smile. I know they say it's a milestone that hap
We were getting destroyed for the first couple months with the every 3 hour feeding schedule. Thought we'd never sleep again. But the last week or so he's been going 7-8 hours stra

Our pediatrician said our 6-week-old should be lifting his head a bit by now but he seems pretty floppy still. I'm probably being paranoid but my wife says I need to chill. Should
