Moms Talk: How Do You Explain the Death of Loved One?

Post a comment to share your thoughts about how to talk with children about the passing of a friend or family member.

Last week in Moms Talk (dads, you're welcome to chime in, too!), we asked for your advice on getting back in shape after baby. Here's what you had to say:

  • "Give up all carbs. It isn't forever, just until you get back into your pre-baby clothes. Also, invest in a jogging stroller and use it! Use it at least 3 to 5 times per week." – Libby Turpin
  • "I spent a lot of money on a treadmill. It made me feel so guilty I made sure to use it! It's hard to do as a parent, but it's really about investing in yourself: Time and money." – Alissa Malerman
  • "I had a friend who breast fed. She said it was the best thing she could have done because it helped her drop her pregnancy weight and even a little more!" – Nicole Krawcke
