What would cause a newborn to get Purple lips?




My baby is 1 month old and her lips have been purple for a week. We took her to the doctor and they checked her heart and said everthing is fine. Has anyone else experienced this with their newborn? My baby is breast fed so it’s not from sucking a bottle too hard. Any suggestions?

Does anybody have the Peg Perego Si stroller?




I’m just wondering when I can stick my son in the stroller without the infant seat? The infant seat weighs SO much & I can’t wait to not have to use it for the stroller. I really don’t have time to sit & google it. Is there a website that I can look at that anyone knows of?

Thanks! =]
Ugh I’m kind of unhappy with it too & only went with it for the SIP. Oh well hopefully we won’t ever have to know if the SIP is needed.
Just so you know, I called the store where I bought it & they told me I could put him right in the stroller as it reclines enough! =]

Please help me decide which stroller to get!?




I have experience with the infant car seat all-in-one stroller and I HATED the stroller. It was a nice stroller but once I was done with the baby seat (5 months) using the stroller portion was horrible. Here’s why: The handle bar was too low and it HURT my back. There was no cup holder for my son. It was very lite — thus not very sturdy. I liked that I had a cup holder though and I liked it when it when it carried the baby car seat. That whole package cost me about 5 (9 years ago).

So I bought another stroller. I liked: the snack/cup tray for my son; the "boot"/cover that kept him warm; it was reversible so it faced me or away from me; nice size storage bag underneath the seat; it layed flat like a bassinet; it was sturdy but didn’t fold down very small. I also disliked that it had no cup holder for me and the after-market ones were a joke. This cost me about 0 (8 years ago) and I had to purchase a toddler seat for about 0 (8 years ago). I also had a miserable umbrella stroller for short, quick needs.

In all I paid 0 for the whole traveling package for my son and we used the latter three products for about 4 years.

NOW I’m having another baby and have found a few options but can’t decide. I’ve included the links and would love opinions. Yes, they are a LOT of money so I’m taking my sweet ol’ time and searching eBay too. Thanks for your input:

Orbit comes with a baby seat for 0. Toddler seat is another 0 but it’s also a toddler car seat. You can get a lighter weight toddler seat for the stroller only & it is 0. The bassinet is 0 and it works as a bassinet in the house too. TOTAL: 20 (OUCH!)

Peg Perego is 0 but an additional 0 for the baby car seat = 0

Chicco is about 0-400 depending on the location & the type.

The 6548 is a sedan, although fully equipped with ejection seats for maximum enjoyment at high speeds (and to get rid of your pet who can’t stand to go faster than 15 MPH). The servomechanisms that serve the mechanisms are rated, again, by Consumers Retorts, as the best in the business. Here in America, the car isn’t selling too well, but Audio is increasing stereo output in the car so it won’t matter. Thoughts? Opinions?

I started potty training my toddler since he turned 17 months, he is now 19 months and he seemed to be very UNcooperative when it comes to this! I’m running out of tricks and ideas on how I can make him go without having to deal with him crying all the time. Any suggestion?

I am trying to decide whether to purchase a Joovy Sit and Stand stroller or a Phil and Ted’s double stroller. Does anyone have experience with either? Thanks!

A friend of mine is giving us her Eddie Bauer car seat to use when our son is born, but it only has one base. I was hoping to find out the company so I can purchase an extra base.

Is it safe to raise a carseat so it sits higher?




I have the Britax Husky, just like the Regent. It sits very low. Is it safe to raise it by putting something under it? Any suggestions on what I could put under it?
