    Lilian Presti

  • Breast Feeding My Baby

    Breast Feeding My Baby
    Andrea Donsky

    I was never one to love breast feeding. Surprising, right? But true. I now have 3 kids - an 8 year old son, 6 year old daughter and a 4 month old daughter. I breast fed all of them, but my experiences with each were very different. Before my son was born, I knew I wanted to try to breast feed him.That was until I tried it.A friend once said to me, out of anyone I know, you are the last ...

    Air Travel With Baby
    Naturally Savvy

    The experience of traveling with your new baby can be wonderful. Or it can be awful. Most likely though, it will fall somewhere in between. To make the experience as pleasant as possible for the whole family, preparation is key.
