A name is the first gift, (after life itself!) that parents bestow upon their children. It is something they will have through the baby months, to the toddler years, teens and until they are the old f...
All families have relatives who insist on certain names to honor ancestors in the family tree. Of course, everyone has the prerogative to either go along with name requests or to overrule as the child...
Breastfeeding shouldn't require manuals and equipment, support groups or lactation consultants, right? It's a natural thing. If it was so hard, how is it that all the lower mammals don't have a La Lec...
Look up "permissive parenting" on the internet and lots of articles will pop up by experts on why it is becoming an epidemic family problem. Why? Because kids need guidance, boundaries, and rules. The...
Some of my kids have longer and admittedly difficult names. My youngest was in fourth grade before knowing the proper spelling of her middle name, because her first name was tricky enough.
Naming a son is a task that requires a balanced approach. Most people don't want their kids to have the same name as a half-dozen other kids in their school, or even class. Parents also don't want to ...
When my mom was pregnant with me, her first child, she purchased a lovely hardback book with rough-edged pages. When I was about 10 I discovered the book my parents had found my name in, and I fell in...
Mo' money, mo' problems? Maybe. But wouldn't we like to find out for ourselves, instead of having to guess? I know I wouldn't mind trying out these kids' problems for a day or so!
When our mothers (probably) and our grandmothers (definitely) were pregnant, knowing the gender came down to guessing games, like how low she carried, what tastes she craved and whether the object hel...
Think of it; you have to dedicate time to looking at pictures of fabulous nurseries for inspiration and need to peruse countless websites and stack oodles of catalogs. Sounds like hard work, doesn't i...
I am old enough to remember the original hippies, although not with great clarity. They seemed to wear the best, lived-in and soulfully-embellished blue jeans, had great, let-it-loose hairstyles and f...
Moms come to the job with a lifetime of expectations. They played with baby dolls, they babysat, had younger sibs or cousins and just assume the mothering instinct is strong and real and will fill in ...
Finding that oh-so-perfect, no one else is using this, charming baby name is not an easy task. Sometimes I wondered if the whole real point of having 9 months before giving birth was just to give us t...
Choosing a baby name is a daunting parental task; one of the first a mom and dad must undertake. Finding one they agree on makes it all the more difficult! What if you want something that makes the ch...
Let's be honest, ladies. There's something hardwired in most of us that find a good, doting and sweet dad irresistible. We see a man playing peekaboo with a baby and our ovaries tingle. One tried and ...
Unlike celebrity moms who don't blink at carrying a diaper bag priced at $50k, most moms grab theirs at a discount store or online, and those on second or third kids may just opt for the free one from...
Choosing a baby name can induce stress in a pregnant woman! After all, what other single decision made upon birth can determine the rest of a child's days the way a name choice does? Think of it; for ...
I was a skinny pregnant woman...at first. I remember worrying that I'd never be able to get pregnant because I fought so hard to put on any weight. Ah, those were the days! I did get pregnant eventual...
Let's face it; not all pregnant women have a husband like John Legend, or at least how we imagine John Legend to be. We whine, cry and pout, and he writes a beautiful song that celebrates our beauty a...
Sounds a little like a Disney kid movie, doesn't it? A kid, probably spoiled and doted on, decides when his parents crack down on him that things aren't fair and takes his parents to court. Hilarity e...
