Thanks Paige - When Sam was little I bought a pillow like for traveling on a plane it held his head up - I put it around the front not the back and that...
We actually purchased the "Rest Upright Pillow" and it worked - The ist time he pushed it away now he likes it. I will also try to tilt the chair a little...
I did not get married till I was 42 - so I changed my legal name to be hyphenated with both names - as I had established my credit under my maiden name...
Hi
Older
Mom.
It's
great
to
meet
you.
Welcome
to
Work
it,
Mom!
I
so
agree
with
your
parenting
advice:
do
not
laugh
at
your
children.
I
just
think
it's
terrible
when
people
do
that
and
belittle
them
(and
their
budding
identities).
Ugh.
Anyway,
I'm
a
moderator
here
at
WIM,
so
let
me
know
if
you
have
questions
about
anything.
Also,
since
you
say
you're
an
older
mom,
perhaps
you'd
like
to
