Mommy wars…very much in the news. I have never really dwelled much on the external and internal ‘mommy wars’ that most of us moms experience daily. Though lately, these ongoing cold wars have been hard to ignore. In the past couple of weeks SAHM(stay at home moms) were criticized when Mitt Romney‘s wife came under [...]

Interesting reads of my week….enjoy. I love taking pictures of all kinds of things…my favorite subjects are people especially babies. Babies are beautiful and photographing them with a telephoto lens can really capture some wonderful ‘shots’ without disturbing their moment. Here are some tips on photographing those tiny baby hands and feet….nothing cuter! It’s an [...]

I’m a pediatric urologist, and here’s my response to the parents of Izabella Oniciuc, the famous potty-trained 6-month-old: I know you are excited about your precocious pooper, but watch your daughter closely, because she may be headed for trouble. Potty training is and has always been a topic up for discussion…after potty training two girls [...]

Friday the 13th…are you superstitious? Interesting reads of my week….enjoy. Alicia Silverstone has defiantly defended her practice of re-feeding her 11-month-old baby son. Ms Silverstone said she has no regrets about publicly portraying how she feeds Bear, her son with rock musician husband Chris Jarecki, even though many medical practitioners say it is unhygienic and [...]

NOTEWORTHY WEDNESDAY! Recently, one of my tweets, was from a mom of three who announced that NYC where she lives was in a way calmer than visiting her hometown in Northern California with her three young kids. Now there were probably more reasons for this statement than I realized but I tried to understand what [...]

The Hunger Games…I have not read the book …I have not seen the movie. But I have read an excellent review on a website that seems to be a good find if you want to know how to keep pace with your children and their exposure to technology and media. What parents need to know…Parents need [...]
Toddlers …”Stay in Bed…PLEASE!

In our home, once upon a bedtime used to mean a simple, pleasant and relatively easy routine until “bad dreams” became one our little one’s nighttime fears. Fortunately, the ‘bad dreams’ have all but disappeared with the help of a magic wand and consistent reassurance whenever our toddler is awakened crying and frightened. Now bedtime has [...]

Highlights of the week…sharing some of the reads of the last few days. Ainsley closed her eyes, as if to shut out the embarrassment. The ongoing quest to understand why her young body was turning into a woman’s was not one of Ainsley’s favorite pastimes. She preferred torturing her 6-year-old brother and playing school with [...]
Vogue …Mother and 7 Year-Old Daughter Diet…Healthy or Sick?

NOTEWORTHY WEDNESDAY! As a professional advocate for children, I am saddened and appalled by the obesity epidemic in children. The younger generation actually may not live as long as their parents…this is sickening…because we have the knowledge. But our social programs, our big businesses that make their money selling non-nutritional foods, and our own will [...]
