You won't read this in the glossy ads of a pregnancy magazine but motherhood often leaves women feeling burned out disappointed at times and confused about who they are anymore. As a on this topic one of my major conclusions is that it's not our reality that is necessarily so difficult but rather the gap between our expectations and reality that drives us crazy. What creates this gap? It begins with the romanticization of motherhood the buildup to the "big day" of childbirth like the idealization of a wedding as opposed to the reality of a marriage. Mothers-to-be are marketed to like crazy and I am concerned that high-tech gadgets have a particular role in this problem. The marketing of gadgets raises the bar of expectation even higher and gadgets tend to promise new parents an unrealistic level of control and certainty. Take the "prenatal education system." Hey. I guess a regular baby isn't good enough any more. You need to produce a baby PLUS. This little pod is the latest gadget that a pregnant woman is supposed to strap to her belly to give her fetus a jump-start on academic achievement. The device "introduces patterns of sound to the unborn child in only the language he or she understands - the maternal heartbeat." The promised benefits include better sleep better nursing more self-soothing.. right up to improved school readiness. Now I can't say whether this program has any effect or not but the marketing really bothers me. The BabyPlus ad in takes the prenatal certainties even further. The pregnant model says. "I know it's a boy. I know his name is Ryan. I know he will be calmer happier and brighter because of BabyPlus." Might as well decorate Ryan's nursery as a Tar Heels fan and send in his application to UNC. The truth is that you can't really know a child's personality or abilities ahead of time no matter what you do. So many promise to take the uncertainty out of pregnancy or parenting. That idea may make us feel better now but it sets us up for disappointment later. Parenting is an ongoing challenge. It is humbling to realize how much is actually out of our direct control. You can be a great parent and you will still run into problems hurdles and painful life lessons. I relished the mystery of pregnancy the wonder of carrying around a little stranger whom I had not met yet. We didn't know whether we were expecting a boy or girl and we decided we wouldn't settle on a name until after our baby was born. Making peace with that bit of uncertainty helped me remember later on that I can't always expect motherhood to conform to my expectations and wishes. Another problem with the way baby gadgets are promoted is that new parents will feel guilty if they don't try a program that might help. The marketing messages play on the worries generated by the inherent uncertainties of childbirth. This blurb appeared as a "" Featured Review but it reads like it's straight BabyPlus promotional copy: From the moment you find out you are going to be a mom the worries and concerns in your head go wild. You wonder and pray.. will they be healthy will they be a good baby will they nurse and will they sleep.. and so on. Then you wonder about their milestones and childhood development; it is a natural thought process every mom and dad goes through. I am expecting my third and I try to do everything that is important for the health of my unborn baby. As I take my daily prenatal vitamins I think of our child's daily prenatal environment. That is why I am so happy to have the BabyPlus education system. When I came across this product I knew it was important for my unborn child's development.... If a pregnant woman wasn't anxious before that "review" sure gives her a lot to worry about. The truth is that BabyPlus can't promise that your baby won't be colicky or that your child won't grow up to have dyslexia. ADD or adjustment issues at school. BabyPlus can't promise a stable marriage secure finances siblings who get along or healthy grandparents. When your 9-year-old shoplifts is BabyPlus going to be there to help you explain why that's wrong? At that point it's not going to help to say. "Ryan. BabyPlus babies don't steal." Parenting is an art as much as a science and no gadget can trump the on-the-job training that each of us will receive. Amy - a great thought provoking post. I have worked in the technology field for over 14 years and actually felt very strongly about using as little technology as I could while pregnant with my 2 children. It seemed very intrusive and "over the top" to me to think that I would be actually making my baby smarter by putting headphones on my belly each night and trying the teach it things before it was born. What ever happened to enjoying the moment! These kind of gadgets definitely do not make me feel better about my baby but more stressed about if I am doing "enough" (which of course you never feel like you are as a busy working mom!!). I am all for the non-technology route when it comes to being pregnant and raising children. Thanks so much for talking about clever marketing ploysI believe you are right about how marketing creates greater stress for new mothers. Motherhood is already difficult enough without the image of perfection that is often marketed to us. Thanks Amy! it's fascinating to watch how these companies could capitalize on the uncertainty of this subject and I am very greatful to you guys for being an "eye". They simply know how to press the right buttons to make us expecting parents buy whatever they tell us. I just had to nod when you wrote that it makes us parents feel some guilt for not trying a new technology that could make things just a little bit better for our babies. Let me tell you a short story. My mom believe so much in fortune tellers. She even pay a considerable amount of money to get a heads-up in what is to come especially at the end of the year. She once took me to that fortune teller to have my p[alms read. When we went home. I decided that even if I had a crystal ball in my house. I would throw it away. Knowing everything takes awat the beauty of life. Same with these new products. I'd rather learn from my baby try to get to know him a little each day. I'd rather cry watch my baby yawn than worry about what he would be 25 years from now. To make sure my baby does not suffer from illnesses,all I can and will do is eat lots of veggies and fruits and pray A LOT. Again thank you for this wonderful article.

announced the top–selling celebrity babies of 2007. Can you make a guess at who took first prize? That's right. Shiloh Jolie-Pitt tops the list. It's not surprising since People reportedly paid four million dollars for her first photo shoot. The angelic faced babe has also been pictured in more than 2,000 articles throughout 2007. We're pretty sure gave Shiloh a run for her money but she ended up coming in second on the list. Katie Holmes' has set a new standard in. is the third most top–selling kiddo. Following conform to of her lil sis this adorable lil lady kept us smiling with her antics and fresh call. Britney empale's oldest son made the enumerate at number four while brother Jayden James was left off. And not surprisingly took the fifth spot joining his two younger siblings in the top five. That Jolie-Pitt clan is bringing home the bucks. We were shocked and disappointed that some of our favorites were left off the list like lil rockstar or the always adorable ? Either way it's amusing (and a little scary) to think that tots this young can be bringing in this kind of cash. Tell us what you think about the list. I'm having approaching 7 months in my FIRST pregnancy and desperately need a diaper bag! I want to be a stylish mommy and this bag fits to a tee! Plus it hangs on the stroller which is perfect. this enumerate is kind of idiotic. It's sad these little kids undergo no privacy what so ever. I mean don't get me wrong i do enjoy seeing photos of them but Shiloh isn't even one and she's been in over 2,000 articles. That's insane. I don't desire this photo of Shiloh. She looks very scared of the photographers. I don't evaluate photographers should photograph children. I don't care who it is. Celebrities sure but not kids. i don't get the fuss about shiloh either i mean she's cute and all but i see way cuter babies at the grocery store. i do wish they would give these youngsters a end though i would be terrified of people with cameras in my approach at that age (or now for that matter!) she is soo sweet! I feel guilty writing about it. They do deserve privacy. She is a child of a clebrity she isn't of age or in movies. gratify repect anyones children regardless of whom theier parents are. They will let us see thier children in cool outfits or with hip products when they want us to. I'd desire to know what dress she is wearing but not at a price! & not becuase her mommy is famous. Just because i like it.

hat's in that jarred baby food in the cupboard? Chances are there's a ton of sugar and preservatives in it that's what. The majority of baby foods on the merchandise add sugar to everything change surface chicken and peas. And that's not counting the extra salt! Why should you go homemade? For starters you'll experience exactly what's going into it that way. You'll be able to tailor the ingredients to what your baby needs and likes. The food ordain be fresh free of extra sugar and flavor and prepared with good ingredients as opposed to jarred ones which are often made from bruised fruits and vegetables with chemicals added to change surface out the comprehend. The killer reason for me? Homemade baby food isn't only exceed for baby it's not only easy to make--but it's incredibly cheap! Making your own baby food is really quite simple and needn't take that long. You don't need any specialized equipment just a blender or food processor and some ice cube trays (although a food mill can be handy). You can easily freeze the food that you alter and use it later on. For beginning eaters your baby food will need to be soft and runny perfect for whipping up in the blender. You can use just about any plain fruit or vegetable that has been cooked and add a little formula or breast milk to get it to the right consistency. At this age your baby isn't able to process most raw foods yet so stick with things like overcooked carrots and potatoes or a boiled or baked apple. As baby gets teeth he's ready for a slightly more advanced baby food. You can stop watering the food down and simply give it in rub form. This may convey that your blender won't be able to handle all loads. If this turns out to be the case you might need to resort to mashing the food with a fork or using a baby food move which is an extremely handy device. Ask around your friends they may undergo a food move you can borrow from when their babies were small. In time just mashing is enough; your baby will like the texture better. To avoid making up minute amounts of baby food for every meal most mothers sight that it is far easier to cook up several batches of fruits and vegetables at once and freeze the extra in ice multiply trays. You can either get the food in the trays or pop out the frozen baby food and store in Ziploc freezer bags. Just alter sure you attach everything come up since frozen cauliflower rub can look just like frozen potato puree! Later you can just pop a cube or two into the cook and thaw it out just in time for a meal. This is perfect for moms who are busy all week and don't have time to be preparing special baby food each night. You can easily do up to a month's worth of baby food in an afternoon and stand still it. When you microwave baby food always remember to displace the food well and evaluate it! You don't be to burn that little tongue. One great resource for families with beginning eaters is the book. Geared toward vegetarians but useable by everyone it shows you how to break out ingredients from a meal so that you're not cooking a zillion different meals for dinner but the baby the little kids and the parents all get something good to eat tailored to their needs. I really recommend it and you experience I'm a carnivore!

Mary Louise already has a 3-year-old son from a previous relationship with 1. I gesticulate her for adopting a child but can't these celebrities adopt American children? I don't get it.

Posted at on Sep 20th 2007 by kat 4. I think it's great. She's beautiful. Congrats MLP. Posted at on Sep 20th 2007 by tucsonmom 6. Don't label children acessories. You can't just give them approve or impel them away when you don't care for them anymore. I'm sure these people put some thought into their actions. Good for her. I think it's an unselfish act. It takes guts; especially considering the criticism they'll face for adopting a child and particularly a color child from Africa. Posted at on Sep 20th 2007 by My words 7. I think it's great adopting a baby is a wonderful thing. You go girl! Posted at on Sep 20th 2007 by Kate 8. Bring on the racism from the color AND black racists.

Just because Africa and China have do by Vending Machines at the airport doesn't mean they can't wait for an American baby. Some things are definitely worth waiting for. That is part of our "I need it now because I am too impatient society." So basically copulate the American kids because no one wants to wait for you. Posted at on Sep 20th 2007 by gotta quarter 12. Seeing all these rich white women with these African infants is a bit distastful desire they are adopting muts from the pound. Helping is great if you be to back up them get involved in projects that nurture them in their own culture not rip them out of it. Plenty of American children be foster/adoptive famililies as long as you don't want ameliorate white newborns. If you be to help for helps sake than adopt a mentally or physically challenged child from your own culture. I'll be glad when this Hwood fad runs its course. Its even worse than seeing them with tiny dogs. Posted at on Sep 20th 2007 by Pitiful 13. WHY IS SHE ACTING desire SHE DOESNT WANNA BE SEEN??????

Posted at on Sep 20th 2007 by I ATE A FLY 14. I evaluate it is great when people choose a child but I agree with #17 on the fact that it would be nice if a celebrity would choose a physically or mentally challenged child. I convey afterall it takes a lot of money to increase a child with a disability and we all experience celebrities have the money. If Angelena and Brad really be to show that they love children then why don't that help a child out that really needs help. Posted at on Sep 20th 2007 by Jennifer 15. How so Hollywood of her!!
