Requesting Perinatologist Info

May 29, 2012

Just wanting some suggestions on a great perinatolgist that would specialize in high risk pregnancies because of a cone biopsy on the cervix. My OBGYN/Oncologist highly recommends that I see one before I become pregnant. Any suggestions? Or has anyone seen Dr. Pereira? ....I'll be using ODS insurance. Thanks! C-Squared

Prenatal Yoga! (Beaverton)

May 20, 2012

Hi Mamas!

My name is Danna and I am a certified yoga instructor, as well as a mama to a two-year old boy and currently 3 months pregnant with baby #2! I teach vinyasa flow at a studio downtown, as well as regular one-on-one sessions with clients, but I would love to start teaching a prenatal yoga class out of my home! We live in the Murrayhill area of Beaverton and since learing I was pregnant, it has come to my attention that there aren't a whole lot of choices when it comes to prenatal yoga in the Beaverton area. 

Prenatal yoga is a great way to build strength and flexibility, as well as cultivate a little bit of peacefulness during your pregnancy. The class would be 75 minutes long and I would ask for a donation of $10-$15 per student. We have a nice big den area with hardwood floors to hold practice on. I am thinking that Saturday mornings at 10 would be a good time, if I could find a few other ladies who would be interested in attending! I would love to get some feedback on this, and if this sounds like something you would be interested in, please send me an email at dannaheydorn@me.com

Hope to hear from some of you Mamas out there! Namaste :)

Hippola.com - The place to swap not shop

May 18, 2012

I am a local mom of 2 who is trying to find a new way for frugal parents to get good quality everyday wear for their children.  I like most moms saved all of my 1st borns clothing that was still in good condition for the second child.  Unfortunately the second child couldn't use 80% of them because he was born in a different season, 2 # heavier, and the opposite sex!  I didn't have any time to go to a clothing swap, nor the money to buy all new "used" clothing, so I started Hippola. 

Hippola gives parents the opportunity to swap their good condition everyday childrens clothing for clothing in the size, style, sex they need.  I swap 1 for 1.  Send me 20 items of 3 m baby girl clothing you can't use and recieve in exchange the 12m boy clothing you want.  Hippola is based in Milwuakie Or and wants to give local parents the opportunity to avoid shipping costs.  Email for pick up and drop off locations in town!!  Check us out at www.hippola.com

May 15, 2012

Looking for a fun musical camp for your 2-4 year old?

Tiny Talkers is now enrolling for their Kindermusik SUMMER CAMP!

Girl with hula hoops

Theme: "Carnival of Music"
M/W/F June 25, 27, 29 10-11 am
Ages 2-4 years old
Location: The Warehouse: 3434 SE Milwaukie Ave., Portland OR 97202
Cost: $50 (includes take home materials: cd which includes all the songs from the class, egg shaker & family guide with includes the Shoofly Pie story that we will read in class)

Children are compulsive music makers. They hum in the bathtub, sing along with the radio in the car, and love the opportunity to use wooden spoons and pots from the kitchen as drums. That's why they will absolutely love Carnival of Music. In class, your child will explore and play various musical instruments. Your child will develop comfort with instruments and his ability to play them, increasing his likelihood of playing instruments as he gets older.

Parent participation is welcome and encouraged in this class (or if you need a break you are welcome to hang out in the cafe if your child is comfortable with you leaving)

Siblings are only an additional $20 for the whole week.
