This book seeks to apply the gospel to various spheres of life during pregnancy: relationship with God, marriage, family, fear, health, lifestyle, service, community, and preparing for birth.

I wrote "Your Vegan Kid" because I remember raising my first child meat- and milk-free in the early 1990s. Since I was new to both - motherhood and plant based lifestyle and information was scarce, it was a big challenge. Nowadays I'm a mother of 3 beautiful, healthy and happy vegan kids aged: 26, 12 and 12 (yes, vegan twins). And I want to share my knowledge and experience with other parents, especially those who are new to the vegan lifestyle. In my book I discuss reasons to raise your child vegan - not only health-related ones, but also psychological and ethical ones. I advise on how to do it at each phase of your kid's life - from being pregnant to raising a teenager. And also how to transition your child to veganism at each of these stages. I also cover most common issues, like: social prejudice, non-vegan co-parent, poor eater, eating on a budget, traveling, etc. I hope my book helps you raise your kids happy, healthy and vegan: ).

As a genealogist, what would you give to spend one day with one of your ancestors? To witness everyday details of his or her life, whether it involved a favorite recipe, cooking methods, gardening, transportation or how children spent their day? Genealogy and stories related to major life events are often found in journals and other sources, but what about activities such as holiday celebrations or games children played on balmy summer evenings? Wouldn't you like to go one step beyond vague stories about walking four miles to school through two feet of snow or canning peaches on a woodstove? On a more recent level, what are your favorite memories about growing up? Did you carry on the same holiday traditions as an adult? Where and when did they originate? Generations ago? Or more recently? Which begs the question, what will your progeny know about your daily life? Where do you even begin to record, much less organize, such things? What do you even call it? It's not genealogy, not family history--so what is it? All these delightful details about everyday life are what comprise family folklore! And if you want to learn how to preserve these precious family memories, The Family History Fun Factor teaches you exactly how. You'll learn which genres are included, see examples, even find a checklist and resource list. If you've procrastinated writing your personal history (and who hasn't?) this is the perfect place to start! No research is required, it's all inside your head. Just recall those everyday activities that make life worth living. Wait until the next holiday, if you like, then record what you do in the Family Folklore Idea Collection Sheet in the appendix. Easy, peasy. Subsequent generations will thank you for it.

Having a baby is supposed to be one of the most magical things that can happen to a person. Or so they say... Meagan Gordon Scheuerman was nearly a year into motherhood before she realized she had postpartum depression. Instead of thinking she was sick, she thought her vision of motherhood was a sham and a lie. She wasn't entirely wrong. She was also in more trouble than she knew. Babies Are The Worst explores the unexpected challenges that parenthood presents, with humor, hope, and a little help from her friends.The book is divided into three sections. The first, "My PPD Journey," chronicles Meagan's journey into motherhood, including the depression that snuck up on her and knocked her sideways. Having never experienced mental illness until PPD, she didn't recognize the symptoms and hid her new reality from everyone around her until she sought help. Part Two, "On Miscarriage & Fertility," discusses being well enough to try for another child, along with the struggles that followed. Part Three, "Not Alone," includes interviews and first-person accounts from other mothers who each experienced postpartum issues for differing reasons, none of which include clinical depression.This memoir is not just for women with PPD. This book is for every person who is left wondering, "Am I crazy for thinking this is sometimes the worst?" You're not the only one thinking it. Let's dive in."Self-help meets Chick-lit - Scheuerman's story shines in her remarkably raw and real depiction of postpartum depression."- Abigail Levrini, PhD, author of "Succeeding with Adult ADHD" (APA, 2012) and "ADHD Coaching: A Guide for Mental Health Professionals" (APA, 2015)
In her book, midwife Ruth Ehrhardt very simply explores, as the title suggests, how the basic needs of labouring women can be met. It takes into consideration the subtle effect environmental factors have on labour and what those attending births need to be aware of. Drawing on the work of Michel Odent, it focuses quite plainly on the physiology of labour, childbirth and postpartum. This book is aimed at pregnant mothers as well as those attending births, whether in the capacity as caregiver (doctor, midwife, doula) or partner."To bring together what is important in such a small number of pages is a feat. I hope that, on the five continents, all pregnant women, midwives, doulas, doctors, etc. will take the time to assimilate the contents of this chef d'oeuvre: it will be a turning point in the history of childbirth and therefore in the history of mankind." - Michel Odent
Parenting is hard. Really? This may be what they tell us and it may feel that way at times, but is this something you just want to accept? Have you caught yourself thinking that the challenges of parenting a defiant kid far outweigh the joys? Do you ever wish your relationship with your child could miraculously become more enjoyable? If so, then you and this author have a lot in common.Lisa Cavallaro has helped hundreds of parents, teachers and administrators create the kinds of relationships they want to have with kids. Influenced by her own real-life parenting blunders, Lisa created a plan that helps clients feel a greater sense of ease - even with the most difficult of kids. And now she shares her process in this easy-to-read format including simple exercises so that you can begin feeling greater ease too.In No More Drama, Lisa offers personal experiences from her "struggle years" demonstrating the effects of "hard" parenting. She then quickly moves into the anecdotes that worked for her and the processes she developed for her clients.After reading this book, you'll feel a greater ease in parenting and you'll also feel: - Confident in knowing you can handle any situation with your child- Self-assured regarding your style of parenting- Happier with life in general- A renewed interest in what really jazzes you"This book is counter intuitive--if you have a defiant child, how do you make them change that? Well, according to what I'm reading, you don't. The problem of defiance isn't resolved by focusing on or trying to micro manage the defiance or other negative behavior. The answer is in correcting your own behaviors. I'm loving it as I see this more of a leadership book--effective leaders don't spend their time focusing on the wrong things in an organization but in setting a vision for success, enabling that and trusting on the organization to rise up to that bold expectation. The premise is that children are good and intelligent and will follow the example set for them--the child learning from their actions is not a function of a parent drilling that into them.If you have a defiant child and "controlling" their behavior isn't working for you, I strongly recommend Cavallaro's approach. I also recommend the book for managers who want to stop mico-managing. This book has a lot to offer in both realms."Sasha Mobley, Founder of More than Enough Life Transformations
