Message to women

March 9th, 2010

Today is International Women’s Day and if you’re like me, you’re probably hard at work in front of a computer screen. Or your situation could be different: You could be looking at your day’s schedule before your patients start pouring in. Or trouble-shooting for your clients. Or finally catching a moment’s rest after having sent your spouse to work and your children to school.

Working at Home with Kids: Nightmare? or A Dream Come True?

December 5th, 2009

Many parents dream of working from home so that they do not need to send their children to daycare. When a mother is able to work from home, she can spend more time with her children. When a child becomes sick or feeling slightly under the weather you are right there for them, to help them mend and feeling better. You do not need to venture out in bad weather to pick them up from your local daycare center, relatives or from your babysitter. When a child is eager to learn new things and develop new skills you are there for them, sharing in their excitement of discovering new things. The benefits of becoming a work at home mom are endless.

It takes careful planning, organization and motivation to successfully work from home with children. There are many challenges when working from home while taking care of young children. If your children are not school age, they will be home with you all day while you work. Children often do not understand when mommy is working. They want attention and frequently are not willing to play quietly while you work. You will have distractions all day when working at home with young children.

As a work at home mom, you need to evaluate your children 's daily schedule. This can help you pinpoint the best time of day for you to work. If you are not able to complete your work at times of the day and week when your spouse is home, you will need to plan a general schedule for work. Of course, with children at home you cannot adhere to this schedule completely. You do need a generic schedule to help you stay on track.

You might find that you are up in the morning before your children. This might be the best time to begin your work. If your children nap at similar times each day, you can plan to do more work at those times. There might be times of the day when your children are quiet and content to play with some of their toys in your office area while you work.

Time management is key when you are a mom who works from home. You will need to use your time wisely. Make a list of everything you need to accomplish for work each day. Decide the order in which you will complete your work. Planning your time will help you to be successful even if you must work in one or two hour increments throughout the course of the day.

In some cases, you might be able to work in the evenings. You can plan some of your work for the end of the day after your children go to bed. Depending on your spouses work schedule, they might be able to watch the children while you work for a few hours in the evening and on the weekends. This will help you to have times when you can work uninterrupted.

Have a well-organized office. You will need to find everything you need quickly. If you work from home you should have a designated office space. Your youngest children will need to be in the room with you while you work. Have an area of the room where they can play with their toys. Make certain that they learn that they cannot touch your desk, computer or paperwork.

Working from home has many benefits. More mothers are working from home than ever before. You can be successful as a work at home mom by carefully planning and staying organized.

The Solution to Weight Loss After Pregnancy

February 16th, 2009

When I was pregnant, my ob-gyne kept telling me that I needed to eat lesser because I was gaining too much weight. I tried to eat small, I tried to eat more frequently, but it didn’t help. “Anyway,” I told myself, “I’m going to lose all these excess weight when I give birth.” Little did I know that a healthy weight loss diet
is as difficult as giving normal birth.

A lot of mothers are like me – we look at mommy makeover after pregnancy
as a short term effort. Unfortunately, if we are not willing to make permanent to the way we eat, then even an orange county personal trainer cannot help us with our weight loss goals.

What’s the best way to give my baby a bath?

December 19th, 2008

Here’s how to do it and what you’ll need to make baby-bathing easy. With any luck, his bath will become one of the most enjoyable parts of your days together:

1. Assemble all necessary bath accessories before you bring the baby in for a bath.

2. Make sure the bath water is comfortably warm but not hot; about 38 degrees Centigrade / 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit has been shown to help babies to retain body heat.

3. For newborns and babies up to six months old, fill the bath with about five inches of water, or enough to allow your baby to settle in the water with his shoulders well covered. Never fill the bath more than waist-high (in sitting position) for older children.
