I was watching a TV show called, CSI, a couple of nights ago. On it they investigate murders etc. I find it interesting to watch because it’s always a mystery that gets solved at the end of the show - and I really like mysteries.

As adults, we often take digestive functions for granted, unless a spicy burrito sends us running for the TUMS or Alkaseltzer. For newborn infants, feeding isn’t as simple. Their systems aren’t fully formed to digest the complex sugars that are found in milk and they’re often filled with too much gas. As parents, there’s very […]

I’ve always thought it was soooo cool to jog. I’d see all the cool people out with their outfits on, jogging away, looking so fit and trendy and think “hmmmm, that would be cool but I think I’d pass out after one block” LOL!!
Don’t get me wrong though, I love to do […]

A welcoming baby shower is one where the shower is held after the birth rather than during the mother-to-be’s pregnancy.

I remember back in University sitting in a Psychology class about child development and thinking “oh God, look at all the things that can go wrong!!”. Everything from preemies with cerebral palsy to boys with an extra “Y” chromosome :shock:… scary stuff!! It really did scare me a lot.
