Sorry that I have been away from this blog for quite some time. Was a little busy with moving the whole family Down Under to Adelaide. We have finally settled in nicely and I guess it’s time to revive this blog.
So, to start of, here’s some quick links that I’ve accumulated over the past month:
- [Why parents are unsure how to control their children](http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0,22606,24538924-2682,00.html)
We are facing some of these same issues that is highlighted in this news article. But we will try our best to ensure that Matthew has a healthy and acive lifestyle as well as strong family relationships.
- [Light drinking ‘no risk to baby’](http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7699579.stm)
Well, I still believe that once you are pregnant, there are just some things you’ll need to give up. And one of them is alcohol.
- [Cut caffeine, pregnant women told](http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7705319.stm)
Well, I guess the researchers needed to add in other caffeinated drinks, such as Coca Cola, into their study. The study shows that the caffeine results in babies with low birth weight. And children born with low birth weights have a higher incidence of health problems such as heart disease and diabetes.
- [Lungs ‘boosted’ by breastfeeding](http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7715261.stm)
Guess this gives even more impetus to promote breastfeeding.
- [Stress hits even before pregnancy](http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7767316.stm)
So, even stress before pregnancy can be a big cause of preterm delivery. Guess for anyone who is trying to be pregnancy, it’s good to manage your stress levels way before you become pregnant.
