I'm looking for some advice on treating an ingrown toenail. Is there some way to prevent them? What is the best way to take care of them? I hear that diabetics get them a lot, is this true?

thisnurserocks I always keep a box of kleenex in the bathroom. I have had to use that a few times. I almost always have diaper wipes in the bathroom too so we usually have something to use.

My little 13 month old boy is just fascinated by toilet paper. Every time I go in there, he goes straight for it and just starts unrolling it. It's cute, but so frustrating at the same time. Does or did your little one do the...

Ok I know this is not a parenting question or anything. But I figured where better to start this conversation than the parenting section. I was wondering if anyone had any quick dessert recipes that they would want to share.

thisnurserocks I have always given my kids a dollar per tooth. When I was a kid I only got 25 cents. I always give the same amount of money for the teeth no matter what the age of the child at the time. As far as what to do about your child that is up to you but I would just...

I know, the logical view would be, it is never good to give in to a child's demands or tantrums but my question is a bit different. I sometimes feel that unnecessary argument makes a child more and more stubborn. It is fine till a...

Are cats and dogs friends or enemies only? We had cat and dog but they hated each other. However I have seen lots of pictures of cats and dogs together as friends. What do you think?

thisnurserocks I have never had a problem with my cats and dogs getting along. On some occasions the dog would chase the cat or visa versa but it was usually in play. They would sleep together on the couch or in my bed at night.

thisnurserocks I have two full grown cats and I also have leather furniture and although you can trim their nails instead of declawing I ended up having to get my cat front claws removed to keep them from scratching. Its just something that cats do.
