Are the Conditions Right for Conception?
Most of the lubricants currently on the market have been shown to kill or significantly impede the movement of sperm – making conception far less likely. Fortunately, there are lubricants now on the market that are scientifically designed to match fertile cervical liquid and semen, creating a conception friendly environment.

Developing Baby's Fine Motor Skills
Fine motor skills are those movements involving fingers, hands and wrists, and helping babies learn to hone those skills can be both simple and lots of fun for baby and parent. Here are some ideas for helping your baby develope these very important development skills.

Pregnancy Weight Gain Recommendations
Pregnant women often feel liberated by the idea that this is the one time in life when they can eat, really eat, for a purpose. However, almost half of all expectant mothers gain more than the recommended amount of weight. How much is too much? And does it really matter what you eat as long as you gain the right amount of weight for the pregnancy?

Inside Pregnancy Week 23


You're 23 Weeks Pregnant!!!

It is now 22 weeks from your last menstrual period Yourbaby is now at 20 weeks gestation and is almost 7 1/2 inches long from crown to rump (10 1/2 inches from head to toe) and weighs about one pound! Your baby is starting to develop 'brown fat' -- this specialized fatty tissue keeps your baby warm. About now, your baby is developing a strong grasp reflex.

Advice for Mom
To avoid hemorrhoids and constipation, increase your fiber intake and drink lots of water. When women become mothers, it affects the whole family in many ways. Be proud of your transition! As the baby grows bigger and stronger, you may be able to see his or her vigorous kicks as well as feel them! Itchy belly? Join the club! Pregnant bellies are itchy bellies and they can become increasingly itchier as the skin is stretched across the abdomen. Lotions or cocoa butter may bring relief. If you are itchy all over, check with your doctor.
