Computer won't load
Comments (8)It would not be a power overload but a power failure. Power supplies (P/W) have at least 3 different voltages. 12 volts for the fans and hard drives. then 3.3 or thereabouts depending on the computer age and somewhere around 2 or less for the memory. Are you comfortable entering the BIOS? If so start the computer and as soon as you hear the beep tap the F11 button. Once the BIOS is opened use your arrow keys to navigate to the screen providing the power info (scroll left to each screen and you will see where to stop hopefully). Then check the voltages listed, there might be 2 sets listed, the correct one and the actual one for your machine. These are allowed to vary by 10%. You will see the instructions to exit without saving any changes so just follow along (not sure with HP myself)...See MoreNeed suggestions for Baby that won't sleep
Comments (21)Just adding to what everyone has said about stopping the bottles and nursing more. If she does decide to try that, she should definitely talk to a lactation consultant first. If she goes back to breastfeeding, I'm pretty sure she'd need to gradually wean off of the bottle while building her milk supply back up. Otherwise she'll have a very angry, hungry baby on her hands! :) When Sophie was 1 month old, I had to go into the hospital for a week for surgery. During that week, Claude bottlefed her and my milk supply dropped to almost nothing, even though I was trying to pump to keep my supply up. When I got home and was off the medications I had been on, I started to nurse her often. She was still on bottle at first, but I gradually took her off, an ounce or two at a time, until she was being completely breastfed again. It's not easy, but it's doable. She was a big, hungry baby too - 9 lbs., 5 oz. when she was born....See More10 yr old stepdaughter won't sleep in her own bed.
Comments (13)mistykate, I agree with the others that this is not typical behavior for a 10 year old but not necessarily that it's a crisis. It sounds like something from Supernanny which I find a very helpful show. Not that it's important but kids in other cultures around the world co-sleep with parents for a lot longer than we expect in the USA. Before I would take SD to the pediatrician, I would ask the pediatrician first what they thought. My DS7 went through a phase of "ghosts" "men in black coats" "monsters in the closet" (this one came straight out of the Monsters Inc. movie) although he was a lot younger then. DH and I made a big ceremony of throwing out these "invaders." I'm sure it's different for a ten year old. I'm not trying to be flip but check out Supernanny. Plus a good incentive plan, movie tickets, special treats etc. for each night she spends in her own room with her sister....See MoreThis kid won't leave me alone!!!
Comments (46)There are four girls in this room. Poor set up, no privacy. The only doors are the front door and the ones to the toilet. There isn't even a door to the showers, only a curtain. They all sleep in the same room, which is open to the "living room". She requested a cheaper room which had four sharing a quad but two girls shared a bedroom which had doors. They were filled already. So, she's still poking me on Facebook, although not every day now. Yes, all three girls have problems with the one. One of them had a screaming match with her the first week or two of moving in. At first Lauren and C. (the one she gets along with the most), thought it was the other girl with the problem. M. (the nudist) moved into her brother's apartment for a couple weeks and all was quiet. She apparently got into a fight with her brother over something I'm not going to post here and moved back to the dorm. She has since been acting like a slob and being inconsiderate of her roommates. The 3 girls have morning classes, M. doesn't so she can stay out late at night and come back in the early morning waking them all with her loud banging around. Like I said, I'm going to let her handle it and if she doesn't go to someone about it then she will just have to put up with it. I'm not going to march up there and demand they fix it. She and the other two girls need to speak up. It's a 2 hour drive. I didn't want to pay $110 for nothing. She has no vehicle and who knows how far the nearest UPS was from her dorm. I did it so I wouldn't get stuck paying for the rental. (I should say she has a vehicle, but the transmission is out and it's sitting at her father's waiting for him to fix it.)...See Morekbarb - San Francisco - Z10a
