It’s one thing to intend to avoid neurotoxins, but another to arrive at the grandparents’ house and find they’ve just had ant poison sprayed. What do you do then?
Two working parents, no daycare
We briefly tried full-time daycare but it was a disaster. Here’s what we do instead
Lead paint
Reducing kids’ exposure to lead from paint, dust, and soil
How much did it cost us to have a baby?
About $20,000 for the first 9 months.
Fine?
The midwife told me that the baby would be “fine” if she were born now. “But there’s still a lot more brain development for her to do,” I pointed out.
