Baby Update

Posted on August 28, 2010 by Katy

So, there was an ultrasound this morning.

It’s a girl.

Later the ultrasound will go up so everyone can admire Sarah Felicia in all her glory. My mom was very happy. I told her “So now you can tell everyone.” She replied “Now I can buy girly things!” That’s my mom.

We told Liam this evening. Showed him the ultrasound pic, asked what he thought it was. He didn’t know. So I told him it was a baby. Then I asked whose baby he thought it was. He named both my sisters and a family friend first. Then I told him it was mine and that he was going to be a big brother. He gave me a thumbs up. Then I said it was a little sister. He facepalmed. Seriously. But he seems rather okay with it and was overall just kind of blase about all of it. It was far easier than I’d thought it would be. He’s since asked when she was coming out but no other questions. He’s gonna be a great big brother.

Chlorine Free Diapers

Posted on August 27, 2010 by Alan King

Chlorine is a harsh chemical. Used as a disinfectant to kill bacteria, the toxic product can be found in many paper products, including diapers for infants and toddlers. In addition, chlorine provides that ultra-white color for most paper products, as unbleached paper tends to be brownish. Many parents are looking for alternatives to harsh chemicals and want to provide gentler options to their baby for the best care possible. Chlorine-free diapers answer that demand.

Chlorine-free diapers are less harmful to the environment, as well as being kinder to sensitive newborn skin. Bleaching paper products to a whiter than white shade allows chlorine derivatives to leach into the ground and water. The dioxins produced have been linked to cancer, not only in wildlife but in humans as well. Chlorine-free diapers mean that youre swaddling your newborn in a product that isnt harmful to the childs health either now or in the future.

Since most people today prefer bright whites over brownish shades of paper products, chlorine-free diapers use more friendly methods to produce the clean white parents look for. There are no horrible chlorine derivatives left in landfills to create toxic pollution and babies arent exposed to chlorine by having the chemical laid directly against their skin. Chlorine-free diapers provide us with a safer alternative to the old disposable diapers.

Chlorine-free diapers may also provide benefits for rash-free bottoms. The fewer harsh products and irritants against a babys skin, the less chance a newborn or toddler will suffer ill effects or diaper rash. Chlorine-free diapers are just as absorbent as other diapers on the market and while they may cost a little more, chlorine-free diapers are a safer, kinder alternative for a green life and your childs health.

When making your choice of products you use to care for your child, choose chlorine-free materials that offer the best for your baby. In a world where increasingly children are being diagnosed with cancers and other serious illnesses, you are minimizing the risk of the effects of chemical exposures.

Top 10 Books From Babies to Young Readers

Posted on August 27, 2010 by

As a mom and avid reader I am a firm believer in reading with your children no matter what their age is.
I also believe that books make the perfect gifts for anyone regardless of their age.

I started reading to my children when they were only few months old. My older son is 12 years old and his thirst for knowledge and love for reading truly warms my heart. I like to think that I have something to do with it. Even thou I don’t read for him or with him anymore I will always treasure the moments we spent together crawled up under a blanket and being transported into a fantasy world that I got to experience through his eyes.

What Was I Expecting Now That I’m Expecting

Posted on August 26, 2010 by Katy

[ad]I am happy, I am sad, I am excited, I am worried, I am scared, I ecstatic, I want to smile, I want to cry, I am scared shitless (might be the prenatal vitamins with iron), I am happy, I am sad, I am excited, I am worried, I am scared, I am happy, and that was just the last thirty seconds. If you feel any of that, then you aren’t alone in this. This is normal, trust me. You aren’t going crazy, it’s the hormones and let me tell you, it will only get worse (or better) with time. You’ll alternately want to curse your husband/boyfriend/significant other and then jump his bones. It’s loopy and weird, but it comes with the territory.

When I was pregnant ten years I know I found great solace with all the people I met on different message boards and thought I would like to do that again. But Brad said no, no, we will start our own blog and board. He has turned his other blogs profitable, or at least to the point of not losing money so I am on board with this. So thank you for visiting us and helping us out. Point anyone else you know over here, we’d appreciate it and maybe they’ll learn something, or just get a good laugh for the day.

My due date is October 21, 2008, just two weeks after Liam turns ten. When my mom heard this, she joked I should cross my legs if I felt contractions on his birthday. I didn’t think I would be in this position again. In fact I had all but decided I was done. If I had any clue the pill would fail after all these years I would have suggested to Brad, who I knew didn’t want more kids, to go get snipped. I wish he had he had been thinking about that too, because we wouldn’t be in this situation, and what a situation it is. Remember, no matter how long you’ve been using a particular birth control method; it’s never going to be one hundred percent effective. I’ve been on the pill for almost ten years, since Liam was born. There was a brief two year period where I lost medical coverage and we used condoms, and we’re damn lucky I didn’t get pregnant then.
