Lose the Baby Fat: Workouts With Strollers

The Issue:  After the baby is born comes the process of getting rid of that extra weight you gained during pregnancy.   

The Solution:  Take your baby out on a morning jog in a sturdy baby jogger/stroller!  If you find yourself unmotivated to exercise, form a group with other mommies and jog together two or three times a week.

BabyEarth.com has a wide variety of baby joggers including this
Baby Jogger City Mini Stroller in red and black. 

Here are some great ideas for workouts with strollers...

Video: Tips On How to Wash Baby Clothes

Babies have brought love...and loads of laundry into our lives!  Here is a video featuring Erin Sheppard, owner of Austin Baby and Austin Diaper Service, sharing tips on how to wash baby clothes...




I like the tip about using detergent that has less chemicals and fragrances.  I recommend Seventh Generation Natural Laundry Detergent, made especially for babies.

Music and The Healthy,Chic Mama

Sometimes being a mother can make you feel just downright tired and frazzled.  Maybe you have a baby who can't stop crying or maybe you're a mother who's trying to juggle a career between taking care of a baby plus other children. 

One thing I can always rely on to help me relax and stay centered when my day seems a little chaotic is music.  Soothing, calming music has the power to heal you.  Music has the power to even soothe and calm down your baby.

That said, I want to share with you a guest post I wrote over at The Cloth Diaper Report titled "Music and Your Baby".  Thanks to Emi for giving me the opportunity to share my thoughts with her readers!

Bottom line:  A healthy mama is a chic mama ;)
