Quote from .teri. :
My preemie had the same problem and the doctor sliced the nipple a little bit too. We changed nipples and it was so much better after that. Poor fella was burning more calories sucking than he was getting from the milk Sadwalk
They have low muscle tone in the mouth, don't like to eat bc of pain associated with eating (severe reflux) and have a weak suck, and have not mastered the suck/swallow/breathe reflex thing. Which means that larger nipples wont' help bc they gag/choke. in fact my son was on preemie nipples (even smaller hole then regular size 1 newborns) and that was the only way he can eat and not choke and cry. Now they're doing better and both on size 1 nipples but any more overwhelms them.

Quote from BFshopgirl :
Try the soft nipple sippys ... they are clearencing them out a Wags.

I'm going tomorrow...were these red dot 75%off or just reg $$$

Quote from shop247mom :
OMG, I know exactly how you feel, exact same thing happened to me about 3 weeks ago. Only I didn't have my GCs & RRs in there, thank God. I don't have much I can send you since I'm starting over myself, but how bout some FFS booklets and kleenex qs? I'll see what else I can scrounge up, but it will be next week sometime. I have a super packed weekend ahead of me and I've procrastinated tooooooooooooooo much as it is. In fact, I don't even have time to be on here!! (and before I get in trouble from yoluna, I'm PRINTING TAGS!!!)
So send me your addy and I'll do what I can to help. I had a couple people send me some qs and I'm not well known, I'm sure you'll be overloaded with help from the regulars.
I hope you didn't have an a**load of $ on those GCs. : hug:
Thank you, I will. And, sadly, I did.

Quote from Dec12Girl :
Oh no!!!! I am so sorry! That is awful!!!! PM me your addy and I will send you some coupons and a couple of RR's - I think I might have 4 and I don't think I will have a chance to get there this week ... but they might help a bit! I don't have any cool 01's I mailed those all out ... I do have a couple of the Pounce that I have never figured out LOL And some renuzit ... um don't know what else. I hate when I hear things like that happening!!!!!! : hug: : hug: : hug:
Thanks, you. I don't want to take your RRs though; you earned those!!

Quote from notrevloo :
I'm sooo sorry. : hug: Let me know if there is anything you need.
Thanks! I'm still in shock and trying to take inventory of what all I lost. I had my little Q box in the purse that had all my "I think I might use these soon" Qs in there. Makes me so sad to think of those Qs in the trash somewhere.

Quote from laina :
Those little farkers!!!! : boxing: : bash:

I had lost a $100 gift card, and found the receipt on it, called Target and they cancelled that one and sent me a new one. Not sure if you're like me but I keep every Target reciept. If you do have them you could quickly check your receipts with the GC's you bought and got through deals and check the balance on them, then call Target to cancel those ones, If they haven't already gone to T and used them.

I'm so sorry!! Frown I know your Q's weren't stolen, but if you could use some Q's let me know, I would gladly help you out with some Smilie
Oh, the best ones were. Sigh. Yeah, I went through my receipts and found some. Some I've sent in for various rebates, any my receipt from Saturday that had a $200 GC on it was still in my wallet.

I'm going to try to call tomorrow if I can. Hopefully that won't be too late by the baby has been having a rough day today (teething) and that combined with all the "necessary" calls I had to make took up my day.

Quote from imnotanasshat :
SB, that blows!

If you have the receipts from the Target gift cards, you can call GS and cancel them.

This is the main reason I no longer carry a purse, btw....
Rofl2 Thanks for that.

Quote from .teri. :
: comfort: How awful! Hope there weren't too many GC's in there and hope you can get them cancelled and re-issued. hug
Sadly, there were many, many, many. . .

Quote from mama2cole :
Oh that sucks. Farking idiots. : mad:
Yep.

Quote from qqueen :
OH SB, that is HORRIBILE.

Makes me want to rethink my bad habit of leaving the purse in the car. And if you are like me, my receipts are in my purse too, so I wouldn't even be able to cancel them. UGH

I must stop being so blatant to the changes going on in our country. Desperate times call for desperate measures. No more leaving my purse in the car. DH is always on my case about this! And I can't even imagine the GCs you might have had in there.....
hug So sorry SB!!!!
Yeah, property crime has always been really bad here. DH was saying it's amazing that neither of us has been affected before.

Quote from sungoddess7 :

Oh, spit!! I'm so sorry!! Big : hug: to you! If there is anything I can do for you, please, please let me know!! I've got an RR or two I can send your way to get you started back up on Wags. Aw, so sorry!!

This is another case of it sucking big hairy donkey balls!! : hug:
Thanks, dear. But keep your RRs; those are hard earned.

Quote from mofome :
Y

: bigeye: WTF? That SUCKS! But why would YOU feel like an idiot? For trusting that you could leave your purse in your car for a few minutes? That really sucks! I always say "sure, take my purse, whatever, there's nothing much of value in there but take my coupons..." EEK! Nono That's why I couldn't check my suitcase that had my coupons in it on my trip to Chicago recently...had to have them in my sight at all times!

Oooh...good idea! It would take me quite awhile to cancel all my gc's : whistlin: but I do keep all of my receipts too...so hopefully sb has hers and can cancel the cards she knows she had in there. I would have a hard time knowing which ones I hadn't already used though.
Yeah, that, and for carrying all that stuff around with me and for not spending my GCs. I had been saving the T GCs for a Dyson but I had long surpassed that and was just waiting for them to go on sale (and trying to figure out what else I wanted to buy with them). Plus there were all the other GCs I had, KM cats, WAG RRs, ECBs (plus, conveniently for the theives, my cards). So yeah, I feel like an idiot.

And, yeah, it will take me a while.

Quote from Sharon526 :
OMG, I am so sorry! Frown
Thanks!

Quote from TargetMagic :
Aww...that's horrible. I've heard this happening quite a bit lately. I leave my purse in my car all the time with all my giftcards, ECBs etc. Those are worth more than the cash I have! Maybe we all have to be more careful, and take our purses or hide them in the back underneath a blanket or something.
Yeah, there's actually a sign in the lobby of the gym warning people about auto break-ins. (That's where the "I feel like an idiot" part comes in.)

Quote from crazy4vs :
OMG! That is awful : comfort: If I can help with anything please let me know.
Thanks!!

Quote from bblueskye :
: comfort: I'm so sorry SB - that is horrible! I hope you are able to get them canceled. That is NOT cool!
Thanks!! Hopefully I'll be able to call and it won't be too late on some of them

Quote from plgffl :
SB- I am so sorry about your purse! If you need anything let me know please!
Thanks!!

Quote from TexasCathy :
You are not an idiot! Some people are just mean. I can relate to all those phone calls since someone took my wallet out of my purse at HEB (TX grocery store) about 2 years ago. . . .

Anyway, words to the wise. Don't leave anything visible in your car someone else might covet. Don't leave your purse in your cart. Make a copy of the front and back of everything in your wallet at least once a year because it is hard to even remember what you were carrying if you have cards you don't use often. My DH would say those cards should not be in my wallet, but then I don't have them when I need them. I did take all my gift cards and put them in a pencil pouch that fits down between the seat and console and that way they are in the car with me but not in my purse. Wish I had more wisdom but that is it.
.
Thanks! That's what I always thought. Now, I'm just going to spend GC right away, no matter what so I'm not carrying them around or anything, I guess.

Quote from tots05 :
so sorry about your purse sbhiggins : hug: : hug:
Thanks!!

Quote from MyFeetHurt :
So sorry to hear about that : hug:
Thanks!!

So I did end up calling the police today and reported it (figured if it become an identity theft issue later I better substantiate it) and then spent mucho time on the phone with the bank trying to get our checking account cancelled and transferred over to a new one. Apparently the farkers used my Visa debit card at a bunch of gas stations and also made an online purchase with it. So now my DH is all up in arms to try to get the address so he can sic the police on them or something. I'm not hopeful.

I can't even imagine the sick feeling you have in your stomach, SB

I just got nervous not too long ago about the GCs that I had in my purse so I pulled a bulk of them out and put them in my drawer at home. Figured, until I need to make a big purchase, I don't need to have all of them with me all the time. Let this be a lesson to all of us with GCs.

SB, have you gone to the gas station where they went, and surronding areas to see if you can find your piurse? A lot of times they toss it in a bathroom garbage or something.
I am hoping your GCs weren't in your wallet, and then maybe they didn't even find them. Not that you will get them back, but at least they don't get to reap the benefits from them.

SB - that double-big-time-farking sucks. I will send you something (I still need to make good on the last stolen purse promise I made - I will, I promise - just so damn busy lately!).

And to echo INAA's sentiments, this is the main reason I no longer go to the gym. Rofl2

In target you can buy a gc with gc's. So I regularly take my smaller ones and buy a large one. I learnt this the hard way too, after losing a 'handful' of gc's somewhere.

That really sucks and I can only imagine howyou feel. Its stuff I haev nightmares about sometimes. Frown

Well, it sounds like it's already an identity theft issue if they are ordering things online in your name. We had our CC # stolen and they made 3 large orders online. They did eventually catch the person and I'm not sure if they tracked IP's to do it or what. There was more than one of us in our area that it happened to and they were able to trace it back to a pizza place where we had given our CC# over the phone! EEK!

So I am glad you filed the police report.
