Darcy Novo Albrecht of Lullabye Exercises says, "I got into doing Lullabye Exercising when my baby would not stop crying. That was the bottom line. It was about making him happy and I was getting a bit of a tight tushy there at the same time! I found myself dancing around the house and doing squats. The up and down motion calmed him and he usually fell asleep."
Joee aka girlisrad says, "Make hay while the sun shines! Prepare healthy snacks when you get the chance so you're not reaching for junk. Have your "couch basket" filled with water, snacks and all things you need to be handy when your stuck on the couch with the baby."
