My intention is to provide educated advice about tough decisions new and soon-to-be parents face. Much of my advice is based not only on research statistics, but also on personal experience and opinion-- please do not take my suggestions to be absolute fact. I do not claim to be THE expert on any one subject, simply an informed professional who wants to provide a starting-point for discussion on a variety of topics. I expect all my readers to continue to research reputable, unbiased sources and consult with their care providers before making any major decisions regarding their or their baby's health.
