- I was wondering if any of you ladies used or plan to use bumpers in your babies cribs? I'm 28 weeks with boy/girl twins and I keep finding different opinions on using bumpers from different sites...some say they're safe as long as the babies aren't...
- My husband and I are very interested in the "simple parenting" philosophy, and are hoping to follow it with our children. It basically focuses on raising children with minimal amounts of stuff, minimal exposure to media (little to no tv and video...
- I just wanted to say that I've observed a very cool phenomenon while carrying my twins. Every time I or my husband sees a parent with twins or more, we usually say hello and chat, and as soon as they find out that we are expecting twins they are...
- I was wondering if any of you ladies had a thought on whether infant preparedness classes are worth it. My husband an I are already taking an infant CPR class, and I will be taking a breastfeeding class, but I wonder if we should sign up for a...

- Hello everyone. I am new here so here's my story:I started dealing with major depression when I was very young. In fact, at the age of 10 I went through my first suicide attempt. My parents never believed in mental illness, they thought I was just...
