Take all the male questions and it sounds like the kind of questions my son used to call me about when he worked in the hardware department of a department store during his summer break. They were usually panicky calls when an angry customer came in, and he couldn't answer them. He quickly learned that a former machinist who now works in automotive powertrain development is the LAST person you should call for tips on buying the best tap and die set, or grade of oil filter, but he seemed to enjoy giving the cutomer far more in the way of detail than they needed to know.

Ok, I think most are covered fairly well, but there is one thing I want to clarify regarding #2: the misses/ladies clothing sizes. If, by Ladies, we mean WOMEN'S, there is a difference. WOMEN'S sizes have a W after them. Now, you can have a 14 or 16 or 18 in Misses, but it is NOT the same size as a 14W or 16W or 18W. The W is a larger size.
As for the babies sleeping position, as others have stated, it is constantly changing. When I had my babies, they said back only. Mine always were propped on their sides because I didn't want to risk them aspirating if they spit up.
I actually DID know a few of the "men's" answers before I read the replies though. And some of the "ladies'" questions were beyond me lol.
