No: Heard that the latest information on "brain training techniques or games" is that they don't work, so they are not the answer to our aging brains and aging population.

Is it normal to feel guilty about going back to work?

Dr. Terrence Harrisanswered

Of course: Feelings of guilt when returning to work after having a baby are very normal. But, remember that having a life outside of parenthood does not make you a bad parent. You need to find your own balance. (make sure to avoid people who try to make you feel more guilty - they are not helpful.).

Although I agree with Dr. Harris this is not a simple question. It depends on how soon after giving birth. Are you having other symptoms such as depression, crying spells, mood swings, weight changes, difficulty with breast feeding or other new or unusual symptoms. If this is the case you should discuss it further with with your Gyn or PCP.

Going back to work: Going back to work poses different challenges.
All of us have felt sad when we leave our little ones, but please, do not feel guilty. As moms we always strive to do what is best for our families.
Get organized before you actually go back, find dependable child care and always have a back up!
learn to delegate and ask for help , make sure you spend special family time, and pencil time for for you.

If I shave my babys lanugo, will it grow back even faster?

Don't do it: Shaving hair, any kind does not make it grow back faster, this is indeed an old wives tale. But please do not touch the lanugo it will go away and would be afraid of any potential harm to shaving a baby.U only have lanugo once. Embrace it.
