My favorite finds from the past week:
- Expecting the Baby, But Not the Pain – Wall Street Journal article about Hypnobirthing.
- Licia Ronzulli Brings Baby to EU Parliament – Article from Britian’s Daily Mail discussing an Italian representative who wears her baby to work (parliament!) in a wrap. Too bad all employers can’t follow the EU Parliament’s example…
- Mindfulness as good as antidepressant drugs, study says – A new study published the Archives of General Psychiatry finds that depression patients in remission who underwent mindfulness therapy, a practice based on Buddhist Meditation techniques, did as well as those who took an antidepressant, and better than those who took a placebo.
- Notes from the Delivery Room – an interesting poem about birth by Linda Pastan on the Writers Almanac.
- A Sacred Journey – A fascinating blog post by Bellies and Babies about Native American traditions surrounding womanhood, pregnancy, and birth. Thanks to Mamapokie for sharing.
- Tummy Time: Why Babies Need More Than They Are Getting – An article on Slate that discusses the long-term implications of slow motor development associated with too much back-lying.
