Candy’s List of Favorite Things: Part Deux

1.  UpSpring Baby Milkscreen Home Test for Alcohol in Breast Milk.  Well, THIS won’t make me sound like an alcoholic mother or anything.  *Ahem*  But after abstaining from sweet, sweet libations for nine months, mommy is entitled to a drink or two.  I believe the general rule-of-thumb for breastfeeding mothers is that we’re supposed to [...]

Mr. Candy’s List of Favorite Things

When I posted my list of favorite things, some of you asked if Mr. Candy could suggest his fave items for new babydaddies.  He’s been traveling like a fiend lately (fun for him AND me… ugh), so he asked me to be his not-so-secret ghostwriter, and even gave me pointers on the jokes he would [...]

A couple weeks after giving birth to my gorgeous daughter, I strolled into Starbucks feeling rather good about myself.  Wearing a pre-pregnancy dress and high-heeled boots, I felt like — dare I say it? — a hot mama.  While I waited for my latte, I chatted with the barista about my baby and noticed that [...]

Toy Review: Norman PhartEphant Needs to Lay Off the Bean Burritos

Passing gas is not something that was ever done openly, or discussed openly, in my house while growing up.  Rather, it was done behind closed bathroom doors — OR something my dad did in his sleep, causing him to wake up with a start and look around for the loud and offending intruder:  “WHO?!  HUH?!  [...]

Dealing with Stretch Marks and Other Joys of Pregnancy

Moms who choose not to commemorate their pregnancy with a scrapbook, blog or what-have you still often have another lasting memento: stretch marks. Yay! A pregnancy roadmap forever etched on your breasts!  How wonderful. Or… not. Personally, I’m not too keen on my stomach looking like the New Jersey Turnpike, although [...]
