Bringing Up Baby

Well. There is nothing like struggling with a personal trial to help a writer develop a niche. Read my latest article "Bringing Up Baby" in the June issue of Whole Life Times.

I met the neatest people writing this ("met" as in talked to on the phone or via e-mail in most cases, but still!). Julia over at FertileHeart.com sent me her two books (amazing reads). And Gift of Green let me interview her husband (thanks, Amy). I got to touch base with Randine Lewis of TheFertileSoul.com who, like Julia, leads holistic fertility workshops. And I found a lovely connection through a gal in my writers' group who shared her birthing story. Since writing the piece I've met Njemile in person. She's given me a few acupuncture treatments (with really small needles!). And Sima - a wonderful yoga teacher - has been in my living room offering one of my favorite (and rare) indulgences, a private lesson. She forgot her iPod, and when she came back to retrieve it, she had her adorable baby daughter in tow. I bonded with the playful little girl over my dog (who loved the attention).
