Parenting.com Erin at Project Pregnancy (who's due in January) wants to know: "Should I just skip New Year’s resolutions this year? Is that allowed? What are your resolutions? Do you usually keep them?"

forums.parenting.com
I know I want to lose all my baby weight (30 pounds so far) and be back in fighting shape (i.e., maybe have a stomach muscle or two) by June, but I really don’t want to think about working out just yet. I would also like to cook more and get take-out less but, again, I don’t think I’m going to be sp...

Mine is to spend more time just hanging out and doing fun stuff with my kids (5, 4, 2, and 9 months). Maybe also do at least one random act of kindness a day, whether it's toward one of my kids, a friend, or a total stranger.

my resolution is to be healthy, so i have enough energy to keep up with my two little boys (3 years and 8 months) and have fun without being exhausted. losing some weight will help improving my health, but i'm hoping to lose weight without thinking too much by being busy with my kids. do make a new year resolution, so you can work towards your goal... See More. even if you don't make it 100% this year, meeting your next year's resolution will become a bit easier. nothing's wrong with having the same, continuous new year resolution spanning through a few years.

www.parenting.com
It's not that children don't love packages and bows. (Oh, they do!) Or that toys aren't a wonderful part of the season. (Oh, they are!) But gifts are only one dimension of holiday spirit, no matter which holiday you celebrate. And small children, with their open minds and hearts, are perhaps more at...

Parenting.com Project Pregnancy blogger Erin wants to know: Were your babies born on their due dates? Early? Late? What about second babies?

forums.parenting.com
I am so not ready to give birth next week. I still haven’t finished the baby’s room or, more importantly, picked a name. That said, I am a firm believer in letting a baby come when he/she is ready. I absolutely do not want to be induced unless it’s a necessity for the baby’s health and I will do wha...
