You might be surprised to find out how much your kids are really influenced by what they watch. With the Oscars being the talk of the town this morning, I thought this would be a great opportunity to shed some light on the impact that smoking in movies can have on our children.
Travelling with kids doesn’t have to be a nightmare
Passports? check. Plane Tickets? check. Diaper Bag? Diaper Bag? My heart sank. As I stood toting my 1-year-old and 3-year-old, my 
face was hot with panic. How would I ever make it through a four hour plane ride with nothing? No bottles, no diapers, no toys. This is probably any mom’s worst nightmare. Continue reading

From Fertility Clinic to a Two-rrific Pregnancy!
This is the final post in a three-part series about the pregnancy, labour, birth and beyond.
“Whoa…she’s HUGE!” is what I heard as I rounded the corner of a local Tim Horton’s shop. A small herd of teenagers were referring to the size of my pregnant belly. “There are two in there” is all I said. A collective and almost sympathetic “ohhhh” came from the teens.

I’m overdue, now what?
This is the second post in a three-part series about the pregnancy, labour, birth and beyond.
You’re so excited that the end of your pregnancy is coming, and you can’t wait to meet your new baby. Unfortunately, that due date comes and goes and you can’t help but feel a little deflated that baby is not here yet. The endless messages from friends and family checking in to see if you’ve had your baby makes you feel even a little more disheartened.
Rest assured… some of us of are slow cookers and some of us are microwaves. What I mean is that a baby is ready to be born sometime between 37 and 42 weeks. A due date is only an estimate of when baby will be born!

5 best baby things not for sale…
This is the first post in a three-part series about the pregnancy, labour, birth and beyond.
Recently, during a prenatal class I had some parents ask me how do they know what the best products are to buy, like strollers, cribs and car seats? Everyone wants the best for their child, but finding the right products really depends on your needs. Taking time to do some research, and chatting with other parents can save you money, time, and some of those sleepless nights. But as I got thinking, what is even more important than getting the perfect stroller is making sure your home environment is healthy for your growing baby. So, I want to share with you some of the 5 best things you can’t buy for your baby…
