Are Working Moms More Fertile?
By mommy.trackd, on Mon Jul 14, 2008 12:10pm PDTEurope is having a baby crisis. The New York Times reported in a recent magazine cover story that fertility levels in Europe are at an all time low. This baby shortage has been called the “lowest-low fertility.” Given that the planet seems to be exploding, resources are tapped, and we’re all... Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (0) | Blog

Moms Behaving Badly.
By mommy.trackd, on Fri Jun 13, 2008 9:24am PDTby Wendy Sachs. I don’t do reality television. This feels like a confession, like admitting you’ve never seen “Sex and the City” in its original airing because you didn’t have HBO. I’m not completely out of touch. I once watched a “Dancing with the Stars” routine and somehow, while... Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (2) | Blog

Embracing the boondoggle
By mommy.trackd, on Wed Jun 4, 2008 4:55pm PDTI’ve been traveling a ton for work. And while, yes, I do get pangs of guilt for leaving my kiddies, there has been an unexpected upside – a lot of ME time. Some may call it selfish, but I’ll be honest, ME time is fabulous.
There was the Aspen ski weekend I finagled with my husband when I traveled to Denver on business. There was my self-guided, spring tour of Seattle from the Space Needle to the world’s first Starbucks. And then there was the salsa dancing lesson I took in Toronto . But it’s also those small things that I find luxurious like sitting on a train to Washington, DC, where I was able to read not only the Wall Street Journal and US Weekly but also a novel. Read More »

Leaking Nipples: Too Much Information for the Office?
By mommy.trackd, on Mon Apr 28, 2008 7:06pm PDTI admit it. I shamelessly pimp out my kids. Not all of the time, I actually only do it at work. Ironically, it’s my kids who help me create instant chemistry with my colleagues and clients. I realized this early on when I mentioned my leaking, nursing nipples to a colleague, who also happened to be a new mom. She was one of those women at work who never had a kind word to say to me pre-baby. But suddenly, after my declaration of lactating leakage an instant bond was created. Read More »
