My mom friend had to pee the whole time, and even considered using her son’s diaper before the traffic broke and things starting moving again. She’s not the first to think about this … kyriesmommy13 in Answers posed the same question a few months ago. She said being trapped in an enclosed place and peeing in your baby’s diaper seems a much better option than wetting your pants. The first several dozen commenters wouldn’t admit to it, some even said no way, they’d never do it, but I wonder if they’re telling the truth....

I’ve been on this ‘where the freak did my eyelashes go?!’ rampage for some time now. I suspect that after I had my children, my eyelashes went the way of my ass and just disappeared. My suspicion also has me believing the coarse hairs that once helped me bat my lashes to win over my husband’s heart are now reappearing on my chin. We won’t talk about where my ass went, but I think most moms know exactly what happened there....

Texas Tech University sociology professor Jerome Koch, PhD, has been studying body art for YEARS. But the findings of his newest research, which will be published next year in The Social Science Journal, surprised even him. When he surveyed over 2,300 college-aged women (mostly freshmen and sophomores), Koch found that those with four or more tattoos had the highest self-esteem. But they also had the highest number of past suicide attempts....

For those kids and moms, here’s a great eco-friendly potty training option: The Beco Potty. Made of bamboo and rice husks, Beco Potties are ergonomically designed for your child’s comfort. The potty is biodegradable, which means when your toddler is finished potty training, he can plant it in the garden. Seriously. Beco Things recommends you drill a few holes in the bottom to let the moisture through. Then submerge the potty in the dirt, add some seeds and a little water, and watch something grow....

There is a chart of sorts at Parenting.com that has the scoop on poop, complete with photos. You can check it out to find out what it means when your baby’s poop looks and smells certain ways. According to the chart: Dark brown, firmer, smellier poop. This happens when you introduce solids. The color and consistency may change from day to day depending on what your baby eats. Introducing a new fruit might cause loose stools temporarily....

So when I realized that the biggest Sephora in the US was not just in New York, but five minutes from my office, I knew I had to go. Hell, I needed a new dark tinted brow gel, anyway. And not only was it an all-caps EXPERIENCE, I literally ran in to one of my beauty idols. Yes, there’s a makeup celebrity at the end of this story. Here’s what it’s really like to shop at the biggest Sephora in North America....

Celebrate the Same Holiday Twice"When my boys were little and divorce was relatively new, I started holding ‘Second Thanksgiving.’ I wanted them to be able to continue to spend Thanksgiving with their cousins on their father’s side, so they travelled to a nearby state for the first Thanksgiving and two days later, we celebrated our own Second Thanksgiving. Many years later, I’ve remarried, the boys have grown up, and Second Thanksgiving is now a welcome opportunity for all of us — myself, my husband, two sons, two stepdaughters and their husbands — to get together regardless of who went where on the first Thanksgiving....

Is formula as good for my baby as breast milk?A. “It’s impossible to duplicate breast milk, but companies work hard to make sure formula is as close to it as possible,” notes Dr....

Enter a ’90s classic: press-on nails! I’ve been wearing them for a while now and they’re actually pretty amazing. The trick is to use the right glue and to file the surface of your nails beforehand. Follow these five steps and I promise you’ll be able to get 1-2 weeks of wear out of your press-ons. STEP 1: Clip or file your nails as short as possible so they don’t peek out from under the press-on....

I had been dating my now-husband for three months when he suggested that I meet his daughter. I was unbelievably nervous. As hard as it is to believe, I’d had very limited interaction with toddlers. I am an only child and my closest friends were childless. I worked in a small office and had two colleagues I considered friends. Looking back, I feel silly, but I asked them for advice on how to talk to a toddler....

No matter your size, strapless bras are stressful. But at some point in our lives — hello, bridesmaids dresses — there’s no more avoiding it. We have to come face to face with the dread bra. But strapless bras don’t have to be The Worst. I tested five different strapless bras for a week to see which was the best. Let the games begin — and may my boobs survive this experiment....

That’s why when CVS announced it would be introducing Korean beauty brands to its stores, I knew I was screwed — I HAD to try them. They’re the pinnacle of skin-care technology, and they’re much more affordable than my go-tos from Sephora. Luckily for me, one brand invited me to try its entire line — and it changed my entire life. But your mileage may vary. Dry skin types definitely need to stick to the Blueberry Hydrating Toner or the Pomegranate Nutri-Moisturizing Toner, otherwise your skin might tighten TOO much — not ideal....

This wasn’t something I’d always known. For a long time, I only wore “flattering fashion.” I dressed in A-line skirts, empire waist silhouettes… anything to help me fake an hourglass shape. Risky fashion trends of the moment were a no-no, ESPECIALLY the oversize look. While I definitely hid in baggy T-shirts in my teens, as a young woman I steered clear for fear of looking “frumpy” or “sloppy.” Thankfully, my love for fashion trends won out and I began experimenting with roomier designs, but not too often....

Ask a photographer, on the other hand, and the reactions are much the same: birth photography, as Laura Eckert says, is addictive. Eckert is the woman behind New Creation Photography, an Iowa photography studio, but she’s also the mom behind the wildly popular Birth Photography Facebook group, a place where folks like her share images of magical moments inside the delivery rooms and bedrooms where babies come into the world....

Who on Earth thought this was OK? The photos are ads for a new line of “loungerie” (that’s lingerie plus loungewear) for girls as young as 3 months. The line is called Jours Après Lunes, and claims to be the first designer brand of underwear/lingerie for children and teenagers. But does this seem like something you would want your daughter to be photographed wearing? See below: How about this:...

Because if you think married sex is “boring,” then you are doing it all wrong. Married sex is anything but stale. You know that old saying “you can’t step in the same stream twice”? In no other part of life is that more true than in marriage. It’s constantly evolving, ever fluid, and after 11 years of marriage and 14 years together, I can say quite honestly that we have never had the same encounter twice....
