Helping a Friend Through a Miscarriage
When you have a friend that has had a miscarriage there is a lot you can do to help her. Many times we are afraid to say anything because we don’t want to say the wrong thing but not saying anything at all can be just as bad. So what should you say and what shouldn’t you say. I have had three miscarriages myself and have heard a lot of things that were just not the right things to say. I have put together a list of things you can say and things you probably shouldn’t. Please be gentle with your friends that are coping with miscarriage. They need your support. Things you should say.
Do call her and tell her you are sorry for her loss.

Do offer to help with housework, babysitting or other things that she may not feel up to doing.
Do acknowledge her baby.
It is okay to say I don’t know what to say or I don’t know how to help. Do call and check up on her. The pain does not go away in a couple days.
Give her extra attention. She needs to feel like other people care about what she is going through.
Do ask if she wants to talk about it.

I think the biggest mistake small businesses make in marketing is making everything so difficult for consumers to understand that they don't get it.

Just Diagnosed With a Visually Impaired Child
Finding out that your child is blind, partially blind, or has low vision can be a scary experience.Some disorders will be discovered at birth, if the vision impairment has observable characteristics such as cataracts or congenital glaucoma, but many go undetected until the child doesnt meet certain visual milestones.Parents may start to notice that their child does not seem to make eye contact or track bright high contrast items.Children with profound vision loss will often have nystagmus.Nystagmus is an observable condition where the eyes tend to shift back and forth rapidly, giving the appearance of jiggling eyes.There are a few children that are born with normal vision and develop vision loss due to accidents, brain tumors, or severe illnesses.Generally if your child is not meeting typical vision milestones by around three or four months your pediatrician will refer your child to an ophthalmologist.Proper diagnosis cannot be made without a thorough exam from an ophthalmologist.

Parenting Starts Before Pregnancy
While it may seem farfetched to some people, many of my clients remember what they felt and experienced while still in the womb. Comments such as these are not unusual:
The Great Awakening--Menopause
Menopause is a natural transition all women experience, as natural as adolescence. For your grandmother and great-grandmother, life expectancy was shorter. Reaching menopause often meant that their life was nearing an end. But this is no longer true. Today women are living longer—on average, until age 78. How you experience menopause is determined by many factors: attitude, diet, overall health, genetics, and your cultural group. Medical science views menopause as the state of your body after you had completed one full year without having a period. It is most definitely not a disease! By making wise decisions about your menopause and healthy lifestyle, you can make the most of the 20, 30, or more years afterwards!
The First Week with your Baby
The first week of your babys life brings big adjustments for both of you. You are adjusting to being a mother and caring for your baby and your baby is adjusting to life outside the womb. It is a time of great joy -- and possibly immense fear! Although youve been preparing for the birth of your baby for months, now he is here and depending on you for everything which can seem overwhelming. Dont expect too much of yourself during these first days! If anyone offers you help -- take it!
Glutathione for a Healthier Pregnancy
All parents-to-be nurture the dream of a healthy pregnancy and baby.
What Every Woman Needs!
As a woman, your body is very complex. Throughout every phase of your life you will require extra care and nutritional support. Todays scientific advances support a number of natural choices for women, like soy. Still, the fact remains that calcium, folic acid and iron continue to be the most important nutrients that can impact a womans total health. All women should take a daily multiple vitamins with these essential nutrients.
