This is my first time posting here. I read the guidelines and it seems like this topic is appropriate for a standalone post, so I hope this post is ok here. I am trying to conceive in my late 30s, and I have been sent to a fertility specialist. The fertility specialist noted that my TSH was...

Since my oldest son turned 3, bed and wake times have been a struggle, to say the least. My wife and I have come up with a bedtime routine that works if we stick to it. We give him choices for PJs, books, where he wants to sleep - he has a bed but has preferred to sleep on the floor in his fold...
