1. Martial Arts Classes for Four Year-Olds?
--------------------------------------------------------
hilaryandwendy - 1/2/2012 10:14 am

 Hi--I'm looking for a judo or karate class for our four
 year-old boy, preferably not clear across town from
 Glen Park. Most programs start kids at 6, but I wanted
 to see if anyone knew of any programs for younger kids.
 Thanks!Hilary

 I have two of the larger ones -- pea pod plus. We LOVE
 them. You are welcome to borrow them. I'll even give
 you a little demo on setting up/refolding them (it's
 tricky to refold them until you've done it a few
 times).Erin415-699-0509erin_loback at yahoo.com

 At age 4 months, we had just decreased from two to one
 night feeds (around 1 a.m. and 4 a.m. were the two at
 the time) when our doc encouraged us to stop night
 feedings all together. Because not only of their age,
 but their weights and abilities, in her opinion, they
 were capable of sleeping through the night and did not
 need the night feeds but were eating simply out of
 habit. We initially tried the method of cutting back
 on ounces offered at each night feed but in the end,
 the most effective method was just stopping offering
 them food cold turkey. There was some crying it out
 but they were sleeping through the night in a week. It
 helped that we had a separate room for me to seclude
 myself in for a week while my husband slept next door
 and listened to them cry and looked at the monitor to
 make sure they were okay. It wasn't easy but it made
 our lives much easier and more sane, and the babies
 sleeping more and for a long solid stretch at night
 made them (and us) happier during the days. They are
 now almost 8 months and we have had a few setbacks (the
 rollover stage was the biggest issue for us) but
 overall, they are great sleepers and generally sleep
 from 7:30p.m.ish until 7 a.m. without feeding in
 between. They will definitely let out a few cries here
 and there during the night but are usually great at
 soothing themselves back to sleep. In terms of that
 last feed of the night (7 p.m.) it is usually their
 biggest meal of the day - both nursing if I am home and
 taking anywhere from 6-8 oz in the bottle on top of
 that.

 NPR just interviewed the author on Talk of the Nation
 today. If anyone's interested, here is the link to
 listen:

 the way, is there an identical twin special interest
 group out there? Anyone interested in starting one?
