		<title>Moms Rising- #1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday as I drove my daughter to school (a daily ritual), I saw this bumper sticker on a car ahead of me: Every mother is a working mother
How true this is!

I am writing this post in response to a request from my friend Alisa Donner, co-founder of Pregnancy Awareness Month (PAM). Clearly, I am NOT a mom, though, perhaps, close. I’ve been a full-time single dad for five years – raising my now 13-year-old daughter Meryl Fé, while being the sole bread-winner. So I can relate to cooking, cleaning, chauffeuring, ...

		<title>Birthing Plans for Hospital Births</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A clear and simple birthing plan is the most effective way to be sure the desires of both you and your partner are understood. Discuss ahead of time with your medical provider so everyone on your team understands your guidelines.
What is a birthing plan? The internet has sample documents to peruse.  Simply put, it is a document that clearly outlines how you want your labor day to unfold, and who you want to be there.  The word “want” is strategically utilized here.  Why?  Because it is labor, it is birth, ...

		<title>A Peek Inside the Barski Home Where the Woombie Brand Was Born </title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wear many hats – mother of five, wife, nurse, Certified Newborn Infant Care Specialist &#38; Instructor, Infant Sleep Consultant, Parenting Consultant, Entrepreneur – but first and foremost I am a mom. A mother to five beautiful children my husband and I are blessed with. The Woombie was built around our family, for our family and by our family.  This journey has brought us even closer together and knowing that we help other families with their problems and needs makes it all very rewarding.
How it all started…

		<title>Bringing Marriage Counseling Home with Power of Two Online</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Learn the skills to stop fighting, build trust, intimacy &#38; love at http://poweroftwomarriage.com. Marriage, like having a baby, doesn’t come with an instruction manual. We aren’t born knowing how to best approach sensitive topics, how to deal with jealousy, or negotiate who takes the garbage out. Marriage is wonderful but tough, especially around times of change like having a baby. With the expectation of blissful “happily ever after” hanging over our heads, marriage challenges can seem insurmountable and make divorce appear the only option.
Psychologist Dr. Susan Heitler designed Power of ...

		<title>What Helps a Stuffy Nose? Moisture</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The first time my daughter had a seriously stuffy nose she was 7 months old.  I tearfully panicked as she attempted to feed in the middle of the night, as was usual, and violently de-latched from my breast because she couldn’t breathe and suck at the same time.  I did what any 1st time mother would do, “turn on the hot shower” I yelled, and off we went to open her nasal passages up long enough for feeding intervals. 
That got us through that night, but the longer term solution involved ...

		<title>Anna Getty&#8217;s Salt Dough Ornament Recipe</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Traditions.
Ahhhh, it’s that time of year again. The holidays. A time when in theory, we are meant to gather and be thankful, celebrate one another and reflect on the past year. And in theory a time when we come together and create ritual in the name of hope, love, joy and peace. Well, it seems to me we have forgotten all that and in the last, say, 25 years or so in the age of mass consumerism and technological advancement Christmas or the holiday season has morphed into stressful, endless ...
