Botox, Fillers and Peels – Oh My – Fighting the Aging Game

December 15, 2009 By Chelsea 9 Comments

Picture 2 Generally when my husband chases the family around capturing them on his Flip Cam, I try to stay out of view. Recently, however, I saw myself on video and it turns out I am fifteen years older than I have in my head. Naturally, I cried a thousand tears (not really) and then Breezy Mama turned to my favorite derm, Dr. Vi of Comprehensive Dermatology out of curiosity (ahem) on the options that are out there. Plus, she answers questions sent in from other moms.

I look a lot older than I thought, Vi. I mean REALLY older. I’m not doing Botox. Just not (yet). But can you give me the info? Where are the best places to get injected so you can still make a facial expression?

How to Get Your Kids to Eat Healthy and Boost Their Immune System

November 2, 2009 By Chelsea 5 Comments

IMG_7029_3You may have heard that the flu has been making the rounds and it’s spreading quickly – even (gasp!) the Swine Flu. There are the general measures to take such as repeatedly washing hands, avoid touching one’s nose and mouth and avoiding sick kids, but perhaps one of the more overlooked ways to protect your child is just plain ‘ol feeding them healthy foods that will help boost their immune systems. For me and my picky eaters, this is a lot easier said than done. So, Breezy Mama spoke to Christine Wood, M.D. author of How to Get Kids to Eat Great and Love It! for tips on feeding those tiny people their veggies, foods to avoid giving them, advice for picky eaters, how not to become a short order cook and more.

Listen, my hubby and I put vegetables on our kids’s plates every night, but we’re realizing they’re rarely touched. What’s your advice for getting them to actually eat them?

Sometimes parents [Read more…] about How to Get Your Kids to Eat Healthy and Boost Their Immune System

The Latest on Birth Control

July 13, 2009 By Chelsea 2 Comments

31eEkcXvNkL._SL500_AA280_ From why the IUD is back and more popular than ever to questions on whether it’s really safe for a woman to miss her period (oh, and WHEN IS THE MAN PILL coming out) and so much more, Breezy Mama’s favorite go-to OB Dr. Rothbart answered our questions.

I have heard of many OBs recommending IUDs now. Why is this? What’s changed from our mother’s generation when there were lots of problems?

We have come a long way from our mother’s generation of IUDs. IUDs got a bad rap in the 70’s and 80’s for causing [Read more…] about The Latest on Birth Control
