A few questions

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. When do babies drop that third nap? It seems like Allie might want to but I am not sure if this is a normal age or if it is just her cold.

2. How many teeth should Laney have? She has the front 8 and recently got her molars. Should she have 12 in the front yet?

3. Anyone know any great stain removal for Nutramagen formula out of clothes? I have stains on the front of my shirts from where Allie lets it drool out of her mouth while eating.

4. How do you tell if your toddler is sick or just whiney? And on that note, what is the easiest way to take a toddler's temperature? Laney has had a rough few days. I am not sure if she might be getting some of those 4 teeth in question, whether she might be sick, or whether she has decided to stop being and pleasant and happy kid.

Lucy has the same jammies and zips them up and down all evening long. She doesn't sleep unsupervised in her own bed though, so I can watch the undressing. I think you should count your blessings that Laney sleeps in a crib and just duct tape her diaper on. Who cares if she doesn't wear pajamas?

I forget the answer to #1 and #2 and I don't know about #3. But I do have one of those Braun ear thermometers to take Ella's temperature, and that works well for us.

I second Jennifer. They are more expensive, and someone told me they only work after 1 year old, but it's way easier. Good luck!

I forgot to answer any questions. Lucy is working on #17 and #18 (her two year molars) this month. Taylors get their teeth early. My family, however, doesn't. My nephew is 11 months old and just got his first tooth.
Three naps?!!! I wish.

here I go, if I remember the questions right
3rd nap? I never figured out that transition. I had 4 naps down and now I have 2 naps down, but deciding when to do away with the early evening nap was a tough for me with Asher and Ivy. The teeth thing, Asher has 20 teeth (10 on top, 10 on bottom) and I'm pretty sure my dad said that's what he's supposed to have., thermometer: I do the digital in their armpit. It's not super accurate, but cheap. and we have a few around the house. And formula stains- I have never used your kind of formula, but I get our yellow stains out with the baby oxi clean. It has a pink lid and I get it at Target.
Good luck! I'm not expert, I think the nerd in me just loves answering questions.
