Rafaela Lamprou is a 24-year-old mother of two who gave birth to her son, Anjelo, seven months ago.

More Bugs In Formula Stress Importance Of Bottle Preparation

Disturbingly, Aptamil was under fire a mere few months ago for having beetles and live SPIDERS in the formula. Supposedly eggs got inside, were exposed to air when the seal was broken, then hatched. Ugh, I’m twitching just writing that. Sadly, we know this isn’t a foreign problem, since we had (thankfully) dead beetles in Similac powder not that long ago. Companies always stress that powdered formula can’t be sterile, and the process of making a bottle and killing things often falls on you, the parent....

Never Keep It Quiet In Your Home Especially If You Have Kids

And what better way to do it than to introduce your child to music, even during those quieter times. Turns out, there are brain benefits to it as well. I’ve exposed my kids to music since … well, conception. My children’ father is a musician and we both really enjoy listening to many different kinds of music. Every night from when my children were first born, we’d go to bed listening to classical music....

New Mom With Insane Body Makes Us Want To Wear Compression Shorts Too

Wanna know what her (weird) secret is? Compression garments. Judd recently gave an interview in which she credited compression shorts that her doctor gave her for her crazy post-baby body. “Having a baby, my abdominal muscles separated by 8cm, which is huge. So as soon as I had Billie, my physio gave me compression shorts to wear, and I’ve been wearing them at home all the time,” she said, adding that the garments give “a little helping hand” at speeding up the weight loss process....

Organic Milk Is Worth The Crazy Price For This Overlooked Benefit

But even that’s not the main reason that I will continue to buy organic milk despite a shortage and the inevitable rising cost. Yes, the price of organic milk is going up — the short story is because it’s a lot more expensive to produce and farmers say they aren’t getting paid enough for it, so they have to cut back. For us, that means paying about 10 percent or about 40 cents more per half-gallon, which seems to last about 3 hours in my house of two bottomless pit elementary schoolers....

And now, she’s 1! As of her one-year check-up with the pediatrician, which happened this week, that little infant weighs 20 pounds and is 2'5" tall. She has teeth, six ridiculously cute ones.

Parents Change 14 Month Old Son S Name Because Of Racist Connotations

David and Christen Epstein decided to change the name of their son, now 14 months, because the name no longer fit the heroic ideal they’d harbored from reading To Kill a Mockingbird. “When the new book came out, we just felt like, this does not at all encompass the values that we want for our son to have and know,” Christen explains. “And we felt like our son was young enough that we could change his name....

Pregnancy Complication Caused This Woman S Horrific Rash

The condition itself is fairly common. Although experts haven’t been able to pin down whether it’s caused by hormonal changes, issues with the connective tissues in the belly, or maybe even something having to do with the placenta, it’s the most common skin condition that crops up during pregnancy. But Bostock’s was anything but common. Hers was spreading beyond her stomach — where it typically shows up on expectant women — to other areas of the body, covering her legs and arms in angry, red, painful pustules....

Pregnant In Real Life But Not On Tv
