SQS April

[Bluedaisy]

Has anyone dealt with a yeast diaper rash?  I'm not sure if that's what we keep getting. LO gets a rash that looks like little pimples or white heads.  I always assumed it wasn't yeast because it seemed to clear up on it's own and never spread from the actual butt crack but I was reading something today that made me wonder.

Any experience?

I would definitely call the dr about that. It could be a yeast infection & you don't want to let that go.

I can't eta for some reason. I have seen a yeast infection present it self like that.

LBB used to get those. Angry is definitely the word I'd use. And very painful. He needed prescription cream.

These aren't angry looking and don't seem to bother him but I will definitely ask the doctor. Thanks ladies!

Any suggestions on how get O to let me brush his teeth?
It's a nasty battle every day. I've tried having him brush my teeth at the same time, letting him do it himself, saying Ahh, making it a game; basically anything I can think of. It turns into a 2vs1 where H holds his arms and I hold his head while I try to brush his teeth. It's not fun and isn't building a good relationship with tooth brushing.

We used Raffi with LBB.

I have one. When you ask M what her name is, or who she is. She says me or looks At you like you are crazy. She refers to things as hers "kaygee's water" or when she sees her self she says her name. But I feel like she should answer something when asked what her name is. Am I wrong? Is too early?

W JUST started responding to this question, and I think it's only because we've been asking him constantly because at his gymnastics class the kids/parents are supposed to go around a circle and introduce themselves. So if we ask him at home, he'll tell us his name, but of course when we're in class he still clams up and we have to do it for him.

I have a very random SQS. Any other kids get terrified when the wind moves something? It has happened to DD a few times now where the wind moves something and it freaks her out into tears. Most recently today after dinner she had a cupcake on a napkin and the wind blew the napkin up. She immediately screamed and cried like she was scared. We took the napkin away and she was fine. Wut?

We have similar children. It was super windy but warm here this weekend. DS was playing in his water table, and the wind knocked a bucket right out of his hand, and he flipped out. So H wound up making a wind blockade for the table with the grill. But still, anytime we were outside and it got really gusty/windy, he would kind of start crying a little and say either "cold" or "inside." Of course, when we'd ask him if he wanted to go back inside, or even imply were were remotely headed that way, he changed his tune pretty quick.

O has this reaction to a lot of things; most of the time it's when he didn't understand or anticipate something happening. People cheering, everyone singing Happy birthday in a large group, mostly situations with a lot of sudden loud stimulation. We just get him to calm down and explain what's happening so he'll understand it in the future.
