A Brief Review Of The Babywise Blog

By Annabelle Holman


A new blog is a resource for new and veteran parents. Complete with a Home page and the babywise blog, Bulletin Board, Forum and Chat link, it hosts a great number of details, information and networking. The administrators keep the blog fun and updated on a regular basis with information on baby news, contests and important information on baby care.

One new idea which has been presented on the blog is that of blog sharing. The topics allow for both owners and visitors to click into the topics and post comments. The comments section then becomes a sharing tool for a multitude of baby related blogs set up by bloggers and parents.

If there is no area appropriate for the topic being shared, the owner of the website will create a new category. When a topic is listed in one area but the upload fits a different one, always post to the category closest to the topic. When in doubt, it is always best to send an inquiry to the contact information listed on the website rather than guess.

Blogs that have links at which individuals can post include religious, photography, miscellaneous, learning, health, family, entertainment, craft, cooking and business. Each week, there is a shared scheduled of activities, contests, games and other interactive features.

Parenting websites often contain advice which is essential to successful parenting. For example, some good planning ideas when expecting a baby are to plan "ideal, " schedules before the baby arrives. Relax housekeeping standards for awhile. Realize that it can often take longer to get back to regular routines than expected.

Children have a way of adapting when a new baby finds the home peaceful, calm and welcoming. It is often the new parents who have more issues adjusting to new schedules, figuring out baby care when going back to work and how to deal with any pets in the home. While supervision is essential, it is also important to allow older children to give the baby love and attention

At times, one or other parent may want one on one time with the baby. It is important to not think of the other parent as more or less important. When both parents are present, attention, caring for, and discipline need be shared by both parents if planning on maintaining peace.

Caring, cleaning, sharing, shopping, all responsibilities of both parents. When schedules are busy with home and work, it can often be beneficial to hire outside help. Whether a house cleaner, a personal shopper, sitter or other home help, it can often be worth the money.

When baby comes home, it is important that someone in the household monitor the baby and sibling interactions. It is also important that other children understand the tender bones and heads of babies. Most new moms allow other children to give a baby love, attentive and supervised but still love.

It is also important to keep pets away from babies, especially when first home from the hospital. As pets are not aware of the difference between small toys and newborn babies, doing so is extremely important to the safety of the new family.
