| Article Title :: Cultural Differences in Baby Care: Part 1, Pregnancy and Labour |
| |
| One of the many fascinating aspects of moving from one country to another is the difference in attitudes to baby care. In my case, I had two children in England, where I come from, and now have a two year old born in the Philippines, where I now live.

It also enables me to compare and contrast the two approaches to baby care.I think it is fair to say that, the world over, people love babies. However, there are degrees, and the Filipino people, at least on the surface, love babies a lot more than the English. That is, (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Cultural Differences in Baby Care: Part 2, Post Birth Baby Care Comparison |
| |
| Prior to the birth of our daughter in the Philippines, there were not really many cultural differences in the way pregnancy was dealt with.

| Article Title :: 1st Birthday Party Planning |
| |
| The very first birthday in a child's life is probably the most special and the biggest celebration during childhood. It's been the year with the most changes. They've gone from sleeping through most of the day to playing right through the afternoon. They've gone from bottles to cups. And they've gone from crawling to walking. A party of this magnitude deserves plenty of planning and thought put into it.For invitations, pick a theme you would like to use for the party. Winnie the Pooh is a very popular choice for younger children. Or you could pick something that is cute and whimsical like a ladybug or a butterfly theme.

| Article Title :: Buying for Your New Baby Without Breaking the Bank |
| |
| After my daughter was born, I sat down and looked over all of the unnecessary and unused items that I had accumulated during my pregnancy. A baby “backpack” to carry my child around in (turns out she absolutely hated it), swaddling blankets that promised that baby would be so comfortable that she would sleep all night (which she still has not) and many other items.For reasons unknown, I purchased these items because I thought they would make me a better mother. Now that my daughter is older and I have become a little wiser, I have compiled a list of absolute necessities for a new mom. Hopefully, this will help you save time and cash when shopping for your new baby.Onesi (read full article) |
