If this resonates with you as a new parent, then like us you probably are wondering, too, what are some things you can do that will have the biggest impact on supporting the health and well being of you baby?

One of the biggest gifts you can give your baby is to reduce all the environmental toxins they are exposed to. One of the most surprising contributors of toxins is their crib mattress. This surprises most new parents as they have never heard about or considered that the crib mattress they are using contains harmful toxic chemicals and allergenic materials, like fire retardants! They also don’t know that healthier solutions are available to them and their babies.

One of my favorite brands is Naturepedic! Naturepedic is the first and only mattress company to specialize exclusively in the design and manufacturing of infant and children’s mattresses that promote natural and organic materials, a non-toxic design, fire-safety, and baby health, and the one I recommend to all of my clients.

I have created an easy way for you to enter to win an amazing $299 Naturepedic No-Compromise™ Organic Cotton Classic this week right here below. Come watch our show this Tuesday night at 9pm (or our replay after if you are not available at that time), and make sure you follow the directions to enter to win this amazing prize!

Entering my contest is EASY!! Just follow the directions below and gain as many entries as you can!
Good luck! :)

I was joined in studio by a group of amazing new moms, dads and their adorable babies!! We created a “virtual” breastfeeding support group for our live viewing audience, we answered viewer questions, and we celebrated our guests as they shared their personal breastfeeding success stories!

This post is also being shared in a weekly “BlogHop” with some great mommy bloggers who are all posting their blog posts on the topic of “breastfeeding celebrations”.

Enjoy! ;-)

Our sponsor was Bravado Designs, and we included a special video clip we filmed to demonstrate for you two BEFORE/AFTER bra makeovers to show you the difference, and to point out some important tips to help you achieve a better fit for your maternity/nursing bras!

I have been professionally fitting thousands of new & expectant moms into maternity/nursing bras in my boutique in NJ and remotely (via Skype) for years.  So many moms on my Facebook Fan Page and Twitter have been asking for my support.  Finally, I am able to bring to you a bra fitting makeover demo and some of my top tips to help give you some guidance on your journey to achieving your ultimate bra fit!

Enjoy this special episode! ;-)

What I do know is there is discrimination against mothers in all directions…Breastfeeding, Bottle Feeding, Working Moms, Stay at home moms, etc… The list goes on and on!

One conversation that NEEDS TO CHANGE is how we as a society view Breastfeeding.  Somehow it is OK to see breasts in every magazine and on huge billboards selling products, but attach a nursing baby to that breast and it suddenly becomes obscene!

Last week Facebook removed this photo from Earth Mama Angel Baby’s Fan Page,

claiming it violated Facebook policies! This is a problem for all of us!

In case you missed my special TV episode last week, you can watch it here and listen to three amazing women I interviewed:

I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing Alicia Voorhies from The Soft Landing about a very eye-opening topic, toxins we are exposed to in plastic products and food containers and how we can limit our exposure to them.

It was a great show, and I am providing you the video replay here, in case you missed it or want to pass it along to your friends or family:

PS…Make sure you join us for our live show tonight, as I’ll be interviewing nationally recognized Pediatrician and Author, Dr Susan Markel about the important topic of Vaccinations.  Dr Susan and I will be sharing information with you to support you in making your own personal decision with your baby regarding their vaccines.

See you tonight! :)

I have taught over 450 couples to cloth diaper their babies, save thousands of dollars on disposables, and have fun doing it!  In fact, probably 90% OR MORE of my clients had no interest in cloth diapering before they took my class!  Once they saw how simple and fun it is, and all the health benefits for their babies the environment and their pocketbooks, it was a no brainer!

You deserve the same great class I teach live to my clients in the NJ/NY area, so I decided to make the 1st ever video program to demystify cloth diapering and make it both fun, easy and extremely affordable!

Listen to some of the moms in this video who are LOVING cloth diapering their babies, and Follow Me on Facebook to be the 1st to know when my groundbreaking program becomes available in a few weeks!!
