The Mighty Throne

Mon, 10 Jul 2000 17:04:28 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Julesmom1 - At around six months of age, it was becoming harder and harder to restrain my squirming son in order to entice him to eat his cereal and mashed foods. I was tiring of being caked with various sorts of fruits and vegetables, not to mention that...

It's Ear-Resistable

Fri, 30 Jun 2000 01:00:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Julesmom1 - I can't rave about this product enough. If it weren't for the manufacturing genius at Braun, I'd never know what my son's temperature was when illness beset him.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Julesmom1 - In my neverending quest to wean my son from breast to bottle to cup, I encountered some challenges along the way. Like for instance, how he hated cups to begin with.

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 01:51:09 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Julesmom1 - I am sorry to say that I have had nothing but bad experiences with the Pampers Baby Wipes. Notwithstanding the cute baby face and the easy-to-open box, the bottom line is that these wipes irritated my son's bottom.

Time and again, even with...

Oh Baby What A Toy!

Mon, 26 Jun 2000 01:39:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Julesmom1 - As a new mother, I must have tried every conceivable wipe on the market.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Julesmom1 - I am a veteran viewer of children's programming on PBS. As a child of the 1960s, I watched my fair share of "Mr. Rogers Neighborhood," "Zoom," (wasn't that PBS? - and I still recall the address...Box 350, Boston, Mass, 02134), and of...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Julesmom1 - I was intrigued by the invitation to try Stamps.com while I was browsing the internet. The very thought of avoiding long lines at the post office was enticing enough, and coupled with the fact that I was starting my writing career finally and needed a...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Julesmom1 - As a stay-at-home mother myself, I personally opted to join, and then subsequently receive, the quarterly publication "At-Home Mother," published by the National Association of At-Home Mothers. The cost for membership is $18.00 with another...
