Baby Blog’s Week in Review – September 30 – October 6

Valorie’s been doing a great job with the Baby Blog this week, I spent a lot of my time focused elsewhere, but I’m working on getting re-engaged here. Here are some of the articles we featured this week in case you missed any.

Saturday, September 30th

In Painless Portraits Valorie talked about ways you can get pictures of your darling little ones without going through a lot of pain and anxiety. In 10 Great Baby Products to Make Life Easier Valorie described some great products including the Bunk Barrier to help keep little ones from climbing into an older child’s bunk bed.

Sunday, October 1st

On Sunday, we talked about what a big month October is in Moms, Dads, & Babies – Welcome to October we talked about the articles that we’re going to be working on and more. In the Reasons Babies Cry we talked about the different types of crying that a baby uses to communicate with you. Baby Showers – The History and Evolution of Gift Giving tackled the history behind baby showers and the timing of the gifts.

Thursday, October 5th

It looks like we both took off a few days this week, but we’re back into the swing of things on Thursday, October 5th with Principles in Breastfeeding a Preemie where Valorie discusses the unique challenges of breast feeding a premature baby. In Baby Smarts & The Breast Valorie reported on a study that challenged popular belief and other research to indicate that breast milk doesn’t make babies smarter.

Friday, October 6th

We paused to have a little Friday Fun with Funny Baby – Friday Baby Funnies and the fact that it’s important to learn to laugh and enjoy ourselves as parents – even when we’re poking fun at ourselves. And that brings us to Friday , and the weekend kickoff.
