If you knew there was an insurance that could potentially save your child's life, wouldn't you buy it?

momlogic's jenny: Before my son was born, I picked up a brochure at my OB/GYN's about Cord Blood Stem Cell Banking. Cord blood, which is also called "placental blood," is the blood that remains in the umbilical cord and placenta following birth and after… Continue

For several months, Baby-Ko's language has really started to bloom. He's definitely mastered Mommy, Daddy, Up, Down, Baba (bottle), Bye-Bye and a slew of other "common" (no shit) words that a 17 month old might say.

I don't work out. Why? I have a kid. That is a valid excuse, isn't it?

I mean, it was a fat fuck's paradise and I was the queen of the island. But as I eyed the row of all things good, I was suddenly overcome with anxiety. You see, my husband is out of… Continue

Like most new moms, I was a bit frazzled and dazzled by the all the information I was constantly being fed when Baby-Ko was born. I'm sure I could have shut myself off to some of it, but the over-achiever, neurotic and Hollywood mommy in me ate it up like crack. Plus, what did I know about motherhood and parenting, really? I certainly wasn't about to take advice from my mother in law (who thinks you can get a "cold in your vagina" if you walk around barefoot), and I certainly wasn't going to… Continue
