A Premature Birth May Be Linked to Heart Health


If you gave birth prematurely or your baby had a low birth weight, you may be at greater risk for heart disease, found two recent studies in Denmark and Sweden. Researchers aren’t certain if a predisposition to heart disease leads to early birth or smaller babies or if it’s the other way around. Either way, if you fall into these two categories, consider asking your doctor to closely monitor you for heart disease, including cholesterol and blood pressure checks.

Babies are undeniably angels
Posted by MaryamG | Sat, 07/11/2009 - 4:22am

Babies are undeniably angels from heaven. Since a new viral video campaign has hit the internet, people have been looking for videos of babies on skates. The idea of actual babies on skates is kind of frightening to parents, but they're all computer animated, so rest easy – it's just an advertising campaign from Evian water, and the Evian water babies are becoming popular. The roller skating babies dance to Rapper's Delight, and some other songs in other commercials – even if the dancing baby thing has gotten completely maudlin by now. Still, fast cash won't make it go away, although the original did along with Ally McBeal. Someone definitely does not need cash loans with the success of the babies on skates videos.
