Birthing Utopia: A year spent entrenched in birth

http://birthingutopia.blogspot.com/2012/06/year-spent-entrenched-in-birth.html

Monday, June 4, 2012. A year spent entrenched in birth. Let the hippies have their lotus birth, but produce some great products to allow that to happen? I see a whole line of high quality dolls coming along and watch these women fight over a $400 stuffed toy, would they do the same if they could jump the line and hire their own midwife? To my family, for making it possible to spend the time learning, and digesting the year. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). All About Birthing Utopia. Where do I start?

Birthing Utopia: Time Magazine celebrates Mothering

http://birthingutopia.blogspot.com/2012/05/time-magazine-celebrates-mothering.html

Friday, May 11, 2012. Time Magazine celebrates Mothering. Or was it a social norm? I think it was probably both - formula was always expensive, and WalMart didn't exist. Would they have wet-nursed another baby for a neighbor or relative? As much as I say I like to party, I spend the entire time out talking about my children or my work, and usually talking about work difficulties usually links directly back to my kids!

Birthing Utopia: I want versus I wish

http://birthingutopia.blogspot.com/2012/06/i-want-versus-i-wish.html

Friday, June 15, 2012. I want versus I wish. I recently had some moments to myself, and went through the list of wants/wishes. I think I wish sounds a little more attainable, maybe like asking the world to provide a little? Maybe helping me formulate a goal? I wish to breastfeed Jonas until he is at least two. I wish to find a career solution! I wish to have more work flexibility, I WANT to have more work flexibility. What are you wishing? What do you want? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Birthing Utopia: Changing Infant Paradigms (part 2)

http://birthingutopia.blogspot.com/2013/08/changing-infant-paradigms-part-2.html

Monday, August 19, 2013. Changing Infant Paradigms (part 2). Now that you have examined and thought and pondered over the basics of how praxis is developed, how about examining a new thought on practice. That is an appropriate question). Depending on praxis, and maybe even personal bias, she may see the newborn in an isolette with tubes and lines. We are all shaped by praxis, to evolve our practice. I had no effing clue what the implications would be. Lucky for me, nursing pairs may have figured it o...

Birthing Utopia: Shutting the door on Post Partum Mood Disorder

http://birthingutopia.blogspot.com/2012/05/shutting-door-on-post-partum-mood.html

Thursday, May 3, 2012. Shutting the door on Post Partum Mood Disorder. Not many people know my unique situation with mood disorders. Or maybe you do. I still remember the first time I was told by a man that I was psycho, and the situation that came from. Instability in life seems to create instability in mood, and perhaps choices in who we surround with our love. Maybe I wasn't thinking clearly when I matched myself with an overweight and depressed man? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). How will I know...

Birthing Utopia: Changing Infant Feeding Paradigms

http://birthingutopia.blogspot.com/2013/04/changing-infant-feeding-paradigms.html

Monday, April 15, 2013. Changing Infant Feeding Paradigms. Surges throughout history waxed and waned - the church, of course, had opinions on breasts and dictated how newborns were fed. The world's rich and famous have always had opinions of their own on how to rear children. As have medical professionals. Even today - if you ask around - the opinions are loud and proud. One would expect that these surges and trends will continue through the eons. Having a close connection with women and their stories ha...
