news roundup - mom in photosSome of the articles of interest to working mothers that we’ve seen around the web recently…

  • In The Huffington Post, a mom adds herself to photos of her husband and kids in entertaining ways.
  • NPR covered a topic we talked about recently — amazingly creative school lunches … that none of us have time to put together. A good complement to that is this piece from 40% and Rising that reminds working mothers that being a good mom isn’t all about making sacrifices for your kids.
  • The New York Times looks at a small law firm that gives parents flexibility and the ability to work from home. (They don’t even have a permanent office.)
  • Working Mother looks at some not-so-surprising numbers on whether moms or dads do a greater share of the chores and parenting duties.
  • Working Mother also talks about making decisions on whether to send your (slightly) sick kid to daycare.
  • So everyone loves to tell nursing moms to go pump in the bathroom… but breastfeeding in the bathroom (BabyCenter) causes an Instagram uproar?

Interesting story inspired by the reporter’s own experience on giving birth in NY. I had a really bad (life threatening) experience giving birth at a top NYC hospital given over taxed under staffed nurses and it’s such a shame how bad the options are here in Manhattan vs other cities.

Wait, is it wrong to send a kid to school with a cold? Because if I can’t send her to daycare with a cold, then I might as well hire a nanny, because she would be home sick half the time and daycare might as well not exist.
