• Birds, Bees, and STDs

  I realize that this statement makes me a huge wimp, but I'm not looking forward to having "the sex talk" with either of my sons. And if Brian Hennessey and Radia Daoussi have their way, that talk is going to include AIDS.  Read More...

• Wha? Smoking NOT Bad During Pregnancy?

  I've often complained about how pregnant women are given all kinds of conflicting information and told not to do all kinds of things, even when the evidence against such things is dubious. There seems to be an all-or-nothing approach to pregnancy dangers, which makes it hard for pregnant women to engage in any activity without feeling guilty or anxious (I suppose it's practice for new motherhood.) However, even I was pretty floored by a new study by the London School of Economics that says smoking during the first four months of pregnancy does almost no harm to the baby unless it is combined with other factors, and even after the first trimester the impact on birthweight is negligible. Um, excuse me? The study looked at birthweight, and the researchers basically said the greatest risks are to women...   Read More...

• Mom Gets Ticket While Sick Kid Barfs In Car

  I feel for moms and dads when I find things like this in newspapers, because what parent hasn't had a day like this? Gina Boyd's three-year-old daughter was running a fever and had an earache, so they climbed into the family van and headed for a clinic. As they were driving, the girl started making choking noises and throwing up, so Gina made an illegal U-turn to pull over and care for her kid. Aaaand that's when she heard sirens behind her.  Now, you might assume the officer would show some mercy considering the circumstances...   Read More...

• Kitchenista: Oatmeal That Tastes Like the Packaged Stuff

  My husband is rocking the oatmeal lately. He started making it every morning last month, when I realized we could retire early on what we were investing in the Kashi cereals empire. It was easy for me to lay down the law on buying cereal by the industrial pallet, since I don't eat it often. For him, though, it was a serious lifestyle change. (But well worth not having me refer to his breakfast as edible gemstones in milk). He started out by making the oatmeal according to the instructions and it was fine but nothing great. Our daughters had just come from spending three weeks at their grandparents, where that super high-sugar, apple 'n' cinnamon, maple 'n' brown sugar, crack 'n' meth flavored instant oatmeal ran plentiful like water. They couldn't go back to bland.   Read More...

• The Basic Seven

  When it comes to the health of my kids, I'm a fairly laissez-faire mom. I'm not quick to call the doc. I don't bundle them to the ER at the first cough. They've been in my house long enough that I can tell when they need to see someone in a white coat.  Most of the time, it works out. I mean, they're both still alive. Read More...

• The Worst Kids Meal Packs 1,200 Calories in a Bowl

  Remember when the Center for Science in the Public Interest came out with a devastating report on movie theater popcorn? How it was loaded with calories and fat in numbers so high we could hardly imagine it? We kept on eating it, sure, but it was also a nice tap on the shoulder that we even if we read labels in the store, we’re kind of flapping in the wind when it comes to eating outside our homes. Then some 10 years later, we get people who want to pass laws forcing that kind of information to be available in restaurants too! But we cry out! “Idiots,” we say, “fast food is fattening! Get over it!” And then we try to order salads and stuff. Make good choices. Attempt to be a little healthier without new laws or the help of anyone.

• Weekly Check-Up: Healthy Gifts Are Okay...For People You Wanna Alienate

  I've seen a couple of these stories lately: Instead of boring old candy or wine or pajamas this holiday, why not give some fitness-related gift? Like some piece of exercise equipment (iGallop anyone?) or a certificate for a massage or a consultation with a nutritionist. I say, BAD IDEA. Okay, yes, wine is bad for non-drinkers and candy is harsh for diabetics and pajamas are lousy for people who sleep in the nude (boo-ya) so I'm not saying other gifts are without peril. But even as someone who might stand to personally gain from, say, you giving away a certificate for three sessions with a personal trainer like me, let's just stop and think this one through a little more. Because I think there's one strong possibility to consider, and I believe I've said it before. Fitness gifts could easily be interpreted as saying... Read More...

• Kids Are Developing Peanut Allergies Much Younger

  Researchers found peanut allergies are showing up in younger kids than before, and they don't know why. In a study of 40 kids, the median age of first allergic reaction was 14 months for those born between 2000 and 2005, compared to a median age of 22 to 24 months in kids born between 1988 and 1999. Doctors urge parents to avoid exposing susceptible kids to peanuts until they are older, because as one says, "When kids are older, it can be easier to manage bad reactions. They can tell you right away if their mouths feel funny. For that reason alone, it's worth delaying exposing your child to a peanut product, especially if a child is at high risk."  But hold on a minute--could it be that by limiting exposure, we're helping create these allergy problems...

• Crude And Unusual Punishment: Gas Prices Affecting Children's Healthcare

  The ever-rising cost of crude oil is affecting consumers in more ways than just what they pay at the pump for gasoline, which reached a National average of $3.11 in mid-November. Many common household items are derived from oil (plastic products, polyester, synthetic rubber and soapless cleaners just to name a few) which, coupled with increased shipping costs, is causing most Americans to closely monitor their spending and cut-back where they can. I think we’ve all felt the pinch and have tried to phase out spending money on unnecessary items and amenities like that $6 Starbuck’s Caramel Macchiato on the drive to work, certain name brand products at the grocery store and the health care of our children.

• Big Babies and Even Bigger Babies

  After giving birth to my second daughter, a whopper at nearly 11 pounds, I’m always interested in the details of big babies, especially the extra super-sized newborns that make mine look like a peanut. Like this one – a 14-and-a-half pounder born six months ago to a fairly wee mama (5 feet tall and slim). She looked full term at five months pregnant, and by the time she was 37 weeks along (that's her in the picture), her doctors in the U.K. insisted she head down to surgery for a c-section. The surgical staff gasped when they pulled little, er, big Jack out and held him and his linebacker shoulders and roly-poly legs, arms and bloated torso up to show his parents. Jack was suffering ...         Read More... Posted Nov 26 2007, 10:06 AM by Madeline Holler with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: newborn, large babies, sick kids, health and kids, U.K. moms

  Okay, we all know we’re smearing chemicals on our faces, scalps and body as a part of the daily beauty regimen. They’re safe, right, these products? Not tested on animals! FDA approved! Well, yeah, but still, a writer/activist says we’re soaking up lots and lots of carcinogenic crap and other dangers whenever we look to Revlon or Maybelline or Lancome and all the rest to get rid of those lines/blemishes/narrow eyes/dark circles/double-chins/bulbous nostrils.

• California to Drivers: No Smoking Around Kids

  Nothing takes me back to childhood more than the smell of a freshly lit cigarette. I spent countless hours of the first 16 years of my life sealed inside a Buick with my father, who would puff away on pack after pack of Winston Lights. Ashes settled like snowflakes in my hair, fiery airborne cherries burned holes in my shirts, the turbid, smoky air burrowed deep into the fibers of my winter coats, creating memories like Proustian cookies.

• Bush Refuses Treatment for Wounded Healthcare System

  As promised, President Bush vetoed a children’s health insurance bill that passed in both the House and Senate and had unusual bi-partisan support. The bill would have expanded the number of children covered by State Children’s Health Insurance Program to 10 million, whereas now the same program covers 6.6 million. The president argued the bill moved Schip away from its initial purpose of paying to cover poor children and instead start providing for children from middle-class families. Which would be a crime? Does he know how a large part of the middle class lives nowadays? Read More...

• Be All Healthy In Pregnancy and Your Baby Might Grow Up To Be A Cowboy. Or Healthy. One of the Two.

  I'm sure there are many pregnant women out there thinking to themselves, "Should I eat well, exercise, and take care of this little life growing in my womb, or should I only eat Pringles and sit on my behind all day?" If so, there's a piece here that might tip the scales. Turns out that eating well in pregnancy might not only result in a healthy baby, but might also help your child grow up to be a healthy adult. Why, Rachel made a list of reminders for herself should she ever get knocked up again: "1. leave off crack smoking, 2. stop running more than 15 miles per day in the 8th month, and 3. avoid kickboxing and bikram yoga." And I told myself, "Froot Loops over JD and Coke is not a nutritious breakfast." See, we help with the hard choices here. But one thing I want to point out... Read More...

• Suicide Rate Goes Up For Girls, Ages...10 to 14?

  Here's the heartbreaking news of the day: suicide rates for kids ages 10 to 24, which had decreased since 1990, have now gone up by 8 percent. While rates for girls ages 15 to 19 went up by 32 percent, the biggest jump was in suicides among girls 10 to 14. Good lord, those are still lego and doll years. Now, while we are talking about small numbers here (94 suicides in that age group in 2004, compared to 56 in 2003)  think about the fact that kids as young as 10 even have moments of contemplating the end of their lives. Middle school may have been one the lowest points in my existence, but still...ugh. So why are the numbers going up?  Read More...

• Things Fall Apart: Salmonella in Your Spinach

  Just when you thought it was safe to eat fresh bagged spinach again, it's not. Literally tons of spinach distributed by Metz Fresh LLC of King City, California into all lower 48 U.S. states plus Canada has been recalled due to testing positive for salmonella. The majority of the tainted spinach was held by the distributor and never released, but there's still plenty out there to make you or your family sick. Read More...

• Could Your Kid Have High Blood Pressure?

  High blood pressure. That's something usually reserved for portly stogie-chomping, three-martini-lunch Type A types. Isn't it? Apparently not. And apparently, according to a new study anyway, over a million U.S. kids have undiagnosed high blood pressure. One. Million.  That's one million who don't know about it. There's another million who do. One = one = (let's see, rapidly counting on fingers, oh I've got it) TWO. Million. Kids with high blood pressure.   Read More...

• Strollerderby Playdate: Play With the Fit Folks

  You know how when you become a parent, all of the sudden you end up spending time with people you might never have met before simply because they have kids the same age as yours? It's a blessing and a curse of parenting. But for our playdate today, once again I wanna steer us temporarily away from the mom and dad bloggers and check out some of the people who write about health and fitness and stuff like that. We'll all sit around and they'll munch on carrot sticks and apple slices, and we will too, followed by half our kid's PBJ and those organic goldfish crackers dropped on the floor. "But I don't care about fitness!" you say. Hey, did you know some of these peeps write things that are even relevant to us mommy-daddy types?

Unfortunately, the chemical is everywhere -  in baby bottles, laptop computers, CDs, dental sealants, food can liners, water bottles, car parts... the list goes on and on.  In other words, if you are a living, breathing consumer, you are exposed to bisphenol A mulitple times, every single day.

• Should You Have Your Child Tested For Lead?

  We have some of the recalled Thomas trains in our home.  I haven't done anything with them yet, mostly because they're down in the basement and my youngest doesn't go down there. Though he'd love to play with the trains if he could be persuaded not to just systematically throw them (sigh). But my daughter, she's seven and still very oral. Almost daily I remind her that the whatever-it-is that's in her mouth isn't food. Read More...

• Baby Cranky? You Might Check for Embedded Needles

  I'm only slightly astounded at the news that a one-year -old Chinese baby was found to have had six sewing needles embedded in him after he was taken to a doctor because of having been irritable and refusing to eat. (By the way, I say "slightly" in my astoundedness because, frankly, I've run across some pretty weird news lately, and I'm maybe a little jaded at this point.) But hello? Sewing needles? Six of them? And the parents have no idea how it happened! The poor kid had two needles in his chest, one in his abdomen, one in his HEAD, and (commence cringing now)  two in his scrotum. I am pretty sure that would make me "cranky" too. The needles will have to be surgically removed, and were revealed through an x-ray. Ouch.    Posted Jun 19 2007, 04:33 PM by Karen Murphy with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: babies, health and kids

• One Step Ahead: Blog Down, People

  By now I think my fascination with One Step Ahead might be bordering on obsession. It's like my Gilmore Girls. I had a nice run where I laughed hysterically about the giggle bug, the naughty seat, the hands-free carrier, the helmet, and the tub bumper... And then came the cart cover. Many of y'all said the cart cover rocked hard. I am happy to eat crow*, cuz it's a good source of protein and I can save my carbs for cake, darling. But now I sense a sweet opportunity to mine the parent pool. Before I go off half-snarked I want to hear from you if these products are ridiculous or crucial. Feel free to weigh in on whatever and whichever side, because, you know the old expression, opinions are like... a part of the body I do believe in keeping quite clean and germ-free.     The Ear & Throat Illuminator (Otoscope). You know, like doctors use to check you out. Should these be in the hands of untrained parents eager to diagnose every ailment, given the perils of home medicine? Is it worth the $44.95? Or is it more like, "even I can tell when an ear canal is red and swollen, and I don't want to make a damn appointment every time I suspect something is up." The Inflate-a-Potty. Whoa now, a travel potty is no big thing, but one that has to be blown up is a little different. I think this one is not so much with the ultra-sterile, even with liners. It says it has an "inflating tube" but I'm unclear if you have to put your mouth on it to inflate, and if so, ugh. Even if there's no chance of contact with the potty contents, I already have the heebie jeebies. Also, I really, really don't want to carry a potty in my purse, I just don't. And I just know we'd pop that sucker in 30 seconds flat. But perhaps this is the toilet we've all been looking for. Do tell. (By the way, the names of these things just slay me. So far I've snorted out loud at the PiddlePad, a carseat liner for "big time blowouts, and potty training uh-ohs" and the Utterly Yours Breast Pillow. Because I needed more cow associations when I was nursing.) Now please share. *That helmet is still the lamest thing ever.   Posted Jun 07 2007, 11:31 AM by Kelly Mills with | with 6 comment(s) Filed under: potty training, safety, health and kids, One Step Ahead

• Kids and Vegetables: Making Friends Of Foes.

  I have three very particular eaters in my home, two are children and one is a 39-year-old child-like adult. I've dropped the word 'Picky' because I'm attempting to think about their absurd eating habits in a more positive light. One day they will be connoisseurs with wildly successful food blogs where they explain in glorious detail how that tomato in their mouth sort of feels like a tiny blob of puke. Or they will note how from the moment they poked that souffle with the tip of their finger, they knew it would be horrible. Their blogs will be titled something like, "The Extremely Particular Food Blogger" or "I can tell I don't like it by the way it sounds." Oh yes, I am familiar with the eating habits of the fickle younger set. Read More...

• So Your Kid is Fat. Now What?

  The media is great about telling us all the reasons why our kids are fat, but when it comes to giving parents and kids actual tools to use to help this problem, things fall a little short. Oh sure, there's vague talk about "playing outside more" and "eating better", obvious advice to those who are already leading a fairly healthy lifestyle, but what about the families who aren't? What about the families who truly don't know the Seven Ways to Hide Broccoli So Your Kid Will Eat It, or Things To Do Outside That Aren't Video Games. That's where the new website aimed at kids ages 4-7 comes in. The Great Grub Club promises to be a handy and fun site aimed at giving kids information about being healthy while having fun at the same time. The new site, the brainchild of the World Cancer Research Fund, is set to launch on May 21 in conjunction with National Cancer Awareness Week (U.K.).The site is aimed at preventing the up to 40% of cancers that could be prevented by diet and exercise. Whoa. (Since the site is for kids, cancer isn't actually mentioned, just lots about a healthy lifestyle). Although my kids don't do much with computers yet, I'm going to check out this site with them when it becomes available. I figure that I can use all the help I can get in giving them the message about healthy living.

• Helping Kids Fight Off Summer Gain

  I'm not a fan of summer vacation, in fact if I wasn't so busy tearing my hair out by around July 1, I'd be a major advocate of year round school. First kids lose ground in reading over the long break and some people say being away from the routine of school causes some kids to gain weight through the summer. This article, instead of pointing fingers, points out some innovative programs in different states which attempt to keep kids moving and healthy throughout the summer. I wonder if they can find a program which keeps me sane, that's asking a lot I admit it. Experts say the weight kids gain in the summer can be traced to unhealthy snacking throughout the day, increased time in front of various screens and a drop in physical activity. Outlined in the article is a pilot program being run in southwestern Florida called 'Healthy Kids'. The idea of the program is to combat the summer weight gain by teaching a more in depth health and wellness curriculum during the year. The piece is full of great information for educators and worth a look for parents of kids who are not involved in day camp programs during the summer. I feel your pain.   Posted May 16 2007, 08:18 AM by Melissa Summers with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: obesity, summer, health and kids

• Five Second Rule

  Admit it. You apply the five second rule. You use it for yourself and you use it for your kids. And do you really even count to five? I don't. This article sites two different studies of the five second rule. The results? You don't want to know. I'm not kidding. It is gross. Of course they infected the surfaces that they dropped things on, and of course the food they left on the floor for five seconds was waaaaaaaaaay less contaminated than the stuff they left down for ten seconds, but that doesn't change the fact that gummi bears and cookies both picked up E. coli bacteria within five seconds. Maybe we should rethink this rule. Harold McGee of The New York Times says we might want to rethink eating that piece of food even if it was only on the floor for five seconds. Of course, if it is chocolate it might still be worth it.  Posted May 15 2007, 10:34 AM by Sarah, Goon Squad Sarah with | with 6 comment(s) Filed under: new york times, germs, health and kids, bacteria, Harold McGee, five second rule

• What? Kids Snacks aren't Good for You?

  Well, well, well. A spokesperson for the USDA said: The majority of foods marketed for children that highlight their healthy nutrient content were found to be high in saturated fat, salt and sugar. (Read this next part with a sarcastic tone) You must be kidding me! Gogurt is loaded with sugar and dyes? Those Backyardigan snacks aren't good for you? Snacks are high in saturated fat? Those apples you can get at McDonalds instead of french fries aren't healthy if you dip them in the caramel sauce? You don't say! Come on. This isn't a surprise to parents, is it? Do any of you really believe that that disgusting bright green crap is good for your kids just because the package claims that it is yogurt? Sure, it's better for them than say... crisco, but it tastes like sugar and food coloring. Yes, the apples at McDonalds are better than the fries (not taste wise, but fat wise) and the whole grain goldfish are slightly healthier than the rainbow ones, but let's try no to fool ourselves. It is okay if your kids eat some of this stuff as long as they are still eating fruit and vegetables and a generally healthy diet otherwise. If this garbage is all that they are eating, you may be in trouble.  Posted May 11 2007, 04:07 PM by Sarah, Goon Squad Sarah with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: healthy eating, health and kids, kids snacks

• Believe It Or Not: Pregnant Women Still Shouldn’t Smoke

  A new study indicates that smoking during pregnancy can have bad effects on the cardiovascular health of offspring. Researchers treated pregnant rats with nicotine, then tested the heart function of the babies three months after delivery. They found that nicotine decreased coronary blood flow in the female rats. Both male and female rats were more susceptible to heart injury. No word yet on why female rats fared worse. Just add it to the list of messed up things women have to deal with, like salary inequity and mom pants. The study is part of new research called “fetal programming of cardiovascular disease” which looks at a number of things during fetal development that affect long term heart health. And of course, previous studies have showed smoking is not so good for developing fetuses. It has been tied to a higher rate of SIDS and to asthma, as well as a greater risk of heart disease into adulthood. But if you didn’t know about the problems with smoking and pregnancy, here’s a few more things pregnant women should avoid: drinking lye; swordplay; sucking on car tailpipes; riding mechanical bulls; K-Fed and Eddie Murphy; eating mysterious mushrooms you found in the woods; and crack.

• Fast Food Joints Get Healthier, So You Don't Have to Feel (As) Bad

  Did you know that Burger King recently announced that it was only going to buy and serve humanely raised and slaughtered animals?  Me either.  Did you know that KFC and Taco Bell recently followed through on their promise to eliminate trans fats from their menus?  Me either!  But I know it's good news.  Quick-serve chains around the country—from McDonald's to Subway to Chick-Fil-A to Starbucks—are finally paying attention to what scientists and health experts have been saying for years: that you don't have to sacrifice taste for nutrition.  First they got rid of that horrible styrofoam packaging, then they started serving grilled chicken sandwiches and salads (some even serve veggie burgers!), and now they're kicking trans fats to the curb.  Fast food is getting positively modern!  Can serving serving antibiotic/hormone-free meat and dairy be next?  (Fingers crossed.) I am not above feeding my kids fast food from time to time, but if a healthier option were as quick and convenient as the McDonald's drive-thru, I'd gladly go out of my way to grab it (I'm thinking Whole Foods needed a drive-thru, like, yesterday.)  I try to pick the healthiest fast food options, but that's not enough to make me feel good about eating there.  So it's good to know everyone from Ronald McDonald to The King is thinking about how to change that.  The will is there —now they just need to find the way.  (Via Quick Serve Kids, a fabulous parenting blog for "guiding kids through the fast food world.")
