By Guest

The presence of fathers in the delivery room is a 20th century occurrence. Historically, the role of the father in pregnancy was that of a “sperm donor”. All deliveries, until the 20th Century, were taken place at home. From time immemorial lay midwives attended the parturient.

Fertility 101 ~ A Basic Understanding of Infertility

By Guest

Basic Understanding of Infertility

Dr. Aladjem shares a basic understanding of infertility; what happens when you can’t get pregnant and what to do about it. Infertility problems are more common than one would suspect.

I … [Read more...]

Picking Up the Pieces

By Guest

losing a pregnancy

Life is full of pleasant surprises alternating with others that are painful. The painful events we attribute to the very essence of life, like the death of a loved one. We learned to accept such events as being out of our control. We mourn, cry and, eventually, time heals the emotional wounds and we remember the departed for the good memories we have of them. We never feel … [Read more...]

You Never Forget Your First

By Guest

First Romance

Who remembers their first crush? I know I do. I’m talking your first HUGE crush, the kind that inspired diary entries and giddy daydreams, the kind that had you doodling your name linked with theirs. If the object of your affection happened to be in your same class in school, you could pretty much forget about learning anything. Well, learning anything other than the various … [Read more...]

Romantic Comedies

Romantic comedies are good for the soul and we find that a little escapism never did anyone any harm. Author Carmen Falcone shares a few of her favorites that will be great for a night of reveling in the past. 1. Trainwreck - How can we resist Amy Schumer?
