January 07, 2010
Here we are at the beginning of a new year - and the beginning of a new decade! I know that 2010 is going to be a great year for me, and I look forward to sharing it with you.
I'm planning to do an update on EC'ing Galen soon - Scott figured out that a lot of Galen's night waking seems to be related to needing to go potty, so we've been trying to offer in the night (not so easy for a very tired mama). We've also been working to figure out why Galen has such a hard time with solids (he's getting better!) and I'll share as we find out more.
I have a couple of reviews and revisions I'd like to get done in the next few days, so look for those next week (including the promised Sleepy Wrap review) - still getting back into gear with schooling and working from the holidays. I have some new birth stories to get up, too. I promise it's all coming!
The Q&A on the site has gone well, and Natural Birth and Baby Care's Facebook page is seeing a lot of attention. I love seeing these two areas of NBBC grow because it means that I'm really getting your input on the site. The questions that come into the Q&A are just awesome - they're things I would never have thought of to do an article on, but it's info you need. Thank you so much for sharing.

Bellies & Babies!
-----------------
The January Baby of the Month is: Audrey - this little cutie is toddling around in a dress made from Grandpa's old dress shirt. Audrey's mama is helping her be part of thriving community of local foods and outdoor fun even while living close to downtown of a big city!
The January Beautiful Belly of the Month is: Sarah - she titled this photo (by friend Tiffany Venters) "I'm Not a Super Model" and I just love it because, well, she's *not* a super model! This picture shows the true beauty of pregnancy - full, complete, and without an airbrush ;) Thank you for sharing this Sarah, you're lovely!
They'll be up on the homepage by the weekend!
