Second Trimester
I am now 6.5 months pregnant (or 26 weeks) and am feeling great physically.  In the midst of my second trimester, I don’t feel nauseated as much and I’m actually sleeping fairly comfortably.  The belly does pose a few obstacles, however.  Who knew tying your shoes would be such a hassle?  I’ve resorted to sandals [...]

Naming a baby
What’s in a name?  Everything!  Your child will not only be called by his name for years to come but also judged by countless numbers of people!  My husband and I recently found out that we’re having a boy.  We are so excited, but we can’t seem to agree on names.  Of course, if the [...]

It’s a BOY!!!
We just found out the sex of our baby and from the title of this post, I bet you can guess what it is.  Yep, we’re having a boy!  We were so excited and so surprised when they told us he was a boy.  My husband and I both wanted a boy first, but we [...]

Worry Wart

Finding out the baby’s gender
I am now almost 15 weeks into my first pregnancy.  My husband and I are counting down the weeks until we find out the sex of our baby.  When I told my parents that we were going to find out before the baby was born, they seemed sad or disappointed, like I was really missing [...]

Pregnant and emotional
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I have been going through a rollercoaster of emotions with my first pregnancy. Don’t get me wrong, I am so excited and grateful to be pregnant! In fact, I was already reading parenting books before I saw that “positive” on the test. But now [...]

Conflicting Baby Advice
I am a first-time pregnant woman and I have mixed feelings about all the advice out there.  I tend to overly prepare for big events in my life, so naturally I’ve read my fair share of books, articles, etc.  Yes, some information is crucial to know, but when I compare advice with fellow pregnies, it’s [...]

A Case for Babying your Baby
Recently, I have noticed a resurgence of parents afraid of “spoiling” their kids, in particular their newborns and infants by carrying them too often in a baby sling carrier. This fear of spoiling children certainly isn’t anything new. In the early half of the 1900’s, the overwhelming majority of child care experts discouraged new parents [...]
