It has been a wonderful three weeks. Each day I look over our show ideas and anticipate writing our top topics of the day. We have shows coming up surrounding water birth, dietary needs during pregnancy, and adoption, to name a few. All of these and the hot topics in the news that pertain to pregnancy and the first year of parenting should keep us busy for a few months.
Are there topics that you would like to hear about? Chime in and let your voice be heard!
Also make sure hear our show on 3/23/10, as we discussed the Mother.com baby-wearing webinar with Milagros. It was a great show!
Today we had local boutique Milagros to talk about infant carriers and how to wear your baby safely.
Here are a few carriers that we talked about:
Baby Hawk
Ergo Baby Carrier
Moby Wrap
Kangaroo Korner
Milagros is located at 5433 NE 30th Avenue, Portland, OR 97211. They have these and many other carriers.
While there don't forget to look at their gently loved carriers, you might find a few to take home.
This week's show is all about Babywearing, and we called in the professionals! We have Carrie from Milagros Boutique joining us on the show to discuss all things carriers, slings, wraps, etc. Hear about how the safe ways to wear a baby and the products to match.
