May 26, 2011I Forgot to Add Kai to My Insurance
You know I’m pissed right? I can’t even really say I forgot. I try to write down everything because lord knows, my memory is hardly what it used to be. Thing is, I thought there was some sort of delay and never followed-up to check that my employer received the enrollment paperwork. Babies are covered [...]

March 22, 2011Breast Is Best….For Me At Least
I don’t get into the drama of which is better, formula or breast milk-I used both on the other kids and they turned out just fine (or so I think). I nursed Kayden for close to a year and with Kennedy, I quit early because I heard the milk would taste funny when you started [...]

February 20, 2011Travel Noir: I’m Glad I Didn’t Get Rid of The Bugaboo
I can’t believe how close I was to getting rid of my Bugaboo. I never put that hook up. I took a little breastfeeding getaway with Kai to the Bahamas recently and I knew that I would need a stroller. I was reluctant to take the Bugaboo because I always get dirty looks from the [...]

December 9, 2010Culture Noir: Woodward’s Gripe Water
The Trinidadians have a few remedies for colic and of the two I’ve tried, I prefer the gripe water seen below. (I’ve also tried red lavender oil around the navel and on the feet). I was told once that boys get colic more than girls but Kai seems to be just as gassy as Kayden [...]

40 Weeks & Counting??
I am officially due today. Meaning, “the situation” should’ve moved out by now. Last week I remember feeling sad that the pregnancy was coming to an end because I honestly enjoyed being pregnant. The kindness of strangers, Kim getting up to get me water or anything else I need from the kitchen.Once “the situation” is [...]

Operation Turn Baby Around
Yesterday I went into the hospital to have the version done. The appointment was for 7:45, I got there at 8:30, so much drama took place at home. And it was raining. The first step was to do an ultrasound to a) determine baby’s position again and b) measure my amniotic fluid. These two factors [...]

November 1, 2010When Your Baby is Breech
and you are terrified of C-sections, it can be a bit of a depressing situation. That’s me today. I went in for an ultrasound to check position and low and behold, baby’s head is right under my breast. I’m sad. I am all open to tips to turn baby. I’ve done a version with Kennedy [...]
