No Justice When It Comes to Tween Body Image

No Justice When It Comes to Tween Body ImageLike most 10-year-old girls, my daughter loves to shop at Justice. So I was flipping through the latest Justice catalog that came in the mail, and I noticed a disturbing trend. Before I point out the obvious, see if you can see what's wrong with the following pictures:…See More

"My DD will soon be 2 and sleeps in her own cot in our room. But she comes to our bed if she happens to get up in the middle of night. "

Happy Mommy replied to Momniscient's discussion 'Do you co-sleep with your baby?'

"I wasn't sure what I was going to do with my first but ended up not co-sleeping. He slept in a basinet next to our bed for the first few months until he grew out of it and was moved to his crib. Now, if he cries, I will bring him to our bed but…"

Sarah Fox replied to Momniscient's discussion 'Do you co-sleep with your baby?'

"I swore up and down I wouldn't do it while I was pregnant (as I did with many things before realizing I knew nothing). But then my sweet baby boy was born. And he was loud. And he didn't sleep. And I was tired.…"

Do you co-sleep with your baby?

There is a great deal of controversy about co-sleeping nowadays. Some studies show it increases mom's stress hormones as well as the risk of SIDS, while others show that it benefits babies and prevents obesity. Where do you stand?

Losing Sleep Over New Co-Sleeping Study

Posted on November 17, 2012 at 2:53pm 0 Comments 0 Likes

A new study has found that women who co-sleep with their babies are possibly more prone to stress than those who don't.

According to a Fox News article, "Breastfeeding and co-sleeping with baby affects mom's welfare," the study followed 195 women in a Chicago suburb for six months…

My daughter had a friend sleep over the other night. I'm not a big fan of sleepovers, so we don't do them very often. But this girl is one of my favorites of S's friends. We'll call her Peggy.

Peggy brought a large bag of leftover Halloween candy with her. We were going to the movies, so her mom let her bring the candy to take with us. She also proceeded to eat a…
