Jun 8	comment	How long should we try to conceive before consulting a doctor? The two couples I know who had tried unsuccessfully to conceive for over a year both managed once they had made the decision to go IVF, but before IVF started. The stress levels seemed to have a lot to do with it!
May 30	answered	How to encourage a 4 month old to swim
May 29	comment	Encouraging my 2-year-old to play independently Definitely this - use very small, defined time slices at first, and always come back when you say you will. Then just extend that time slowly. It's often all about trust - that you will return.

Apr 24	comment	What are some good multi-player collaborative games for a 9-12 year old girl? I'd be a bit concerned if you are focusing specifically on girls. As the father of boys and girls, I can say that one of my girls loves shoot em ups, the other likes princesses and mermaids, so your best bet is to avoid gender stereotypes.
Apr 24	comment	How do you find great reading material for a child whose reading ability is far outstripped by his/her comprehension? Similarly, Piers Anthony's Xanth books have some fun ideas but are simple reading. I read them about the same age as the first few Pratchett Discworld books and really enjoyed them.

Apr 18	comment	Is there any problem with same-sex siblings sharing a bedroom when there is an 8 year age gap? Have a look at factsanddetails.com/… and everyculture.com/wc/Japan-to-Mali/Japanese.html for examples.
