 All new parents find themselves extra cautious about germs once they have a newborn in their home, and in light of the current COVID19 pandemic, parents are likely to be even more concerned about their little one's congestion. How do you know what is normal and what is cause for a call to the doctor?
 As a mom of five (5!) myself, there's one question I get asked more than any other: "How do you DO it?" Indeed, how does a breastfeeding parent sit down to nurse a cluster-feeding newborn when there is a toddler climbing furniture and a preschooler spilling snacks all over the floor?
 Ah, crisp mornings, crunching leaves, boots, and snot. Wait- what was that last one? Plenty of us try to avoid folks who are sneezing and coughing, but when you're the parent of a wee baby, cold and flu season can be even more stressful! Here's our tips for keeping your family well- even if you can't control the germs in the air!
 It’s one of my favorite times of the whole year- the holiday season. The excitement and anticipation bring a certain sparkle to an otherwise dreary outdoors. If your calendar is booking up with celebrations and preparation, be mindful not to let a busy schedule knock you and baby out of your usual routine.
 November has many of us counting our blessings and reflecting on the people and things we are most grateful for. What better way to express our thankfulness than to share the love with others in our communities? Today we are focusing on charitable giving most needed in southern Ohio and ways to include your kids too.
 A few weeks ago my oldest son had a full evaluation with a psychologist and received the formal diagnosis of Autism and ADHD. My son is 8 now and this diagnosis was one that I fully expected. In fact, I'd go as far as to say that I have known this to be true of him for some years now. Hearing those words in an official sense was not upsetting to me that Friday, but when we first set out on this journey 6 or 7 years ago they would have devastated me. It's been a long process and looking back I sure do wish I would have had a doula to walk alongside me!
