Old school rap... Whenever most people hear this term, they think of the mid 80s-90s. A hip-hop fan who is in their teens or twenties might think of Run-D.M.C and their likes who were big in the mid-'80s as old school rappers. Well, they certainly had a very different rhyming style from Eminem, Jay-Z and other rap stars of the 2000s. However, old school rap isn't Run-D.M.C. or LL Cool J - those artists were part of hip-hop's second wave, and they didn't become popular until 19... Read Full Story

Circumcision is unnecessary and cruel!I must admit I didn't always think this way. I grew up where circumcision is a must, an absolute normal and natural thing.

I always heard that babies should be massaged after bath as a part of their bedtime routine. Mya was a very fussy baby. Bedtime routine? We didn't know what it was until few weeks after her birth. I would lay her on my bed and try and all I got was screaming! lol It was hard to persevere, plus I really didn't know what I was doing and was scared to death to hurt her tiny body. Well, once I did my reasearch (which proved that infant massage is a wonderful thing) and my husband and I ma... Read Full Story

I am still passionate about pregnancy,labor,b... Read Full Story
