It has been 7 weeks since my 34th birthday. On that day, I was celebrating my special day at Disneyland with my husband Paul, my eldest daughter, and her boyfriend. Interestingly my daughter was 32 weeks pregnant and I was 25 weeks pregnant. It was one of the happiest days I had had in a...

I was pregnant, but I wasn’t going to be able to keep the baby? After 16 years of infertility, this had to be some big cosmic joke. I felt short of breath. This pregnancy couldn’t be tubal like my primary-care doctor thought. It just couldn’t. My emotions flipped from...

(A look back at August, 2008) I’m not dying; I’m pregnant. It had been sixteen years since I last tested positive for a baby. It wasn’t the result I expected my primary care doctor to return. I’d gone to see him because I...

It's becoming more and more real, more and more official.  Around April 21, give or take a week or two on either side, I will be welcoming Jaden Charles, my first grandchild.  It is a slow sinking in process, perhaps made more slow by the fact that my daughter has gone through hell and...

In spite of all the books out on pregnancy and raising a child, I had many a shock when raising my own. There were quite a few occurrences that were never listed in these books, and that none of my friends went through, or shared with me. In my continuing efforts to help other moms survive...

While in postpartum yoga on Wednesday, I discovered I have diastasis.  I wish I had known back in August 2007  when I gave birth, so that I could have been doing exercises along the way to correct it sooner.   But it 's never too late to start now. Diastasis is a separation...

Yesterday was my son's 14th birthday. I honestly don't know where the time went. On one hand, it seems like he was just born a few years ago. I remember every moment as if it were just a few breaths away. On the other hand, I can't (and don't want to) remember a time in my life when he wasn't...
