@ ywlg30 i dont know if i can say i have a strategy but all i try to do is keep my hands busy cleaning, or whatever. i am also taking N-Acetyl Cysteine (no idea if i spelled that correct) its a pill that u can buy at your local health store. its an amino acid, and i dont really know what helps you in the pills but i think its basically the fact it decreases your urges to pull. i dont have a lot of urges, so i'm guessing its working =] i bought my bottle at wegmans for around 15 dollars.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
