I need to include th eobvious details, but I would like to add that we are having a girl and her name to the invitation. What is the best way to do that? And should I have an RSVP by date? I f so what is the time frame to when the party is?

So far I have:

Rsvp with Jody by _____??
It’s a girl – Her name
The shower is July 21, 2007. When should they RSVP by?

I got a baby corn snake about 2 months ago but it won’t eat. I’ve tried exposing the brain and it still acts like it isn’t interested. i try feeding it twice a week but nothing. Is force feeding too stressful for a 3 month old snake? the diameter of the snake is smaller that the diameter of the newborn pinky.

Okay, maybe it’s just me….but I got an invitation to my friend’s baby shower, and the wording sounds so strange to me. She decided to name the baby Logan, and the invitation says:

“Join us to celebrate the newest arrival
and help them prepare for Logan’s survival.”

Prepare for his survival?? Is it just me?? That sounds SO odd to me; who would say “we are preparing for our baby’s survival.”?

I just had to ask others opinions because another friend of ours said it didnt sound too weird…

*This question is ideally for breeders with the actual experience of rejected pups*
*The pups are already born, so please leave ‘don’t breed’ comments at the door*
* I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing and have only vets and kind breeders words to go on – please help*
*p.s Make a cup of tea – my worry comes in the form of a long long message – thank you so much for your time and help!*
Back story: I trusted a family member to keep eyes on my 1yr old Pomeranian/jack russell cross when in heat – they failed their mission drastically and she got pregnant.
6 Pups were born 31/08 – 1/09,
one was still born (she gave birth to it without me seeing – SHE WAS SO QUIET – i think she crushed it while tending to the other 4 pups, i tried for 10 mins to resuscitate the pup back to no avail, even mouth to mouth –  very sad) *please save telling me how I could of saved this pup other ways cause it’ll break my heart and make me cry*
It may also be worth noting: 3 pups were born with sacks over their head – she thankfully allowed me help her without 2nd thought but it worried me that she didn’t instinctively go to remove the sacks I HAD to help her, she went straight for their cords unconcerned by their lack of breathing first…
We went to the vet on day 2 and he said she had done as well as she could have, examined her for left over placenta and gave her an antibiotic to help with milk let down. I also was concerned as she wasn’t drinking any water – I had to (and still have to) spike it with a drop of milk or mix it into her food. My worry being she wouldn’t produce milk, the vet mentioned bitches milk to me for the pups if needs be and said to give her some too, it wouldn’t do any harm. They had none there that day, only kitten feed.

For a family.

just the parents and don’t include the children?
oh. it’s a web baby shower. long distance. not a real shower.
i have several cases where adult children live in the same house.

The baby will be 1 month old. We had a June shower planned, but since all the flooding in Iowa we had to postpone it. He will be the guest of honor!
Sorry, the new shower date is Aug 30th and we are sending invites out this weekend.

She wants to eat every 3-4 hours (bottle), and WAS falling asleep shortly afterward, but today had NO interest in sleeping at all, aside from ONE 3 hour nap. She just wants to be held, which I LOVE doing, but I wonder if maybe I’m holding her TOO much. I didn’t think it was possible to hold a newborn too much. Also, when she IS awake, what can I do to play with her at this young age? I don’t want her to get bored with me just holding her all of the time, feeding her, changing her, and telling her how pretty she is. I talk to her all of the time, I was just wondering if there’s something more I should be doing
And I do realize that I can’t really “convince” her to sleep, I was just under the impression that newborns slept a LOT and apparently I’m supposed to sleep when she sleeps, …. (that won’t be happening :O) ) I was just wondering if it was normal for a 2 week old to get “bored” with the sleeping all time routine. I just really want her to be happy and always feel loved.

How do I word a baby shower invitation to include the fact that I don’t want anyone bringing their children with them? I don’t want it to sound rude. Please help.

I am fixing to have my baby and the father is my now ex and has not been around throughout the pregnancy. He is wanting the infant to stay overnight with him even though I am breast feeding and it is not in the best interest of the child. He is very irresponsible, selfish, and does not know how to care for an infant (basically he scares me!). How should I proceed if he does take me to court for visitation rights? Has anyone been thru this before?

I am having a “diaper shower” for a friend- where everyone brings diapers instead of gifts from a registry. How can I word “bring diapers as a gift” on the invitation.
