Tummy Tuck - The Post-pregnancy Answer?

Filed under Home and Family

Getting your body back to normal after a pregnancy can be a tricky business. When it comes to stretch marks and loose skin, there is no real effective method of treatment other than the surgical option of an abdominoplasty, a.k.a. a tummy tuck. Your skin is capable of expanding to accommodate a gradual weight gain, but when you are pregnant, it must expand relatively quickly to accommodate the growth of the baby. Consequently, the deeper layers of skin may tear forming thin white lines across your stomach. You may become frustrated (to say the least), and many women experience a big blow to their self esteem. However, a tummy tuck can remove most stretch marks and tighten any loose skin. In fact, deciding to go for a tummy-tuck seems a reasonable course of action considering that 130, 000 tummy tucks were performed in the United States in 2005.

Babies And Friendly Bacteria

Filed under Home and Family

Within a few days of birth your baby’s digestive tract will be colonised by bacteria. How your baby was born - vaginal or by caesarean section - will influence the type of bacteria that your baby will carry.

It has been shown that the beneficial/friendly bacteria bifidobacteria infantis were found in about 60% of 4 - 6 day old full term infants who were born vaginally. Only 9% of babies born by caesarean section had B. infantis. It is uncertain how, but babies pick up the friendly bacteria from their mothers during the passage through a clean, healthy birth canal. It has also been demonstrated that bacterial or yeast infections in the vaginal tract can have serious effects on an unborn child including triggering premature birth and low birth weight infants.
