Keeping calm in an emergency

I recently received a phone call from a parent notifying me that his son could not make a play date to the pool with my step son because he had scraped his arm. With great concern I asked when this happened and how bad the injury was. The father’s reply was “oh a few days ago, my wife tells me it is down to the bone!” Oh dear! “did you go to the hospital for stitches?” I asked.  The answer did not match the description of the injury....

Prepare for the unthinkable

It’s every parent’s worst nightmare: while eating breakfast in his highchair , your child begins to choke. His face turns red, his lips blue. As you frantically unbuckle his safety belt, your mind races. Do you know what to do? Naturally, it’s difficult to think about worst case scenarios. What if he chokes? What if he is injured?

To Have or Have Not—A Second Baby Shower

By: Tara Weng I remember well the day of my baby shower for my first-born. I was feeling humongous and overwhelmed but excited for the cool baby stuff and well wishes given by family and friends. For some reason when I had my second child it seemed much more daunting of a task to procure additional baby stuff and I never got that special “Let’s welcome the new baby” party. More and more second-time moms are deciding to forego the...
