Weight After Pregnancy

After having my first baby I was very eager to get back into shape. After a few months of working out and eating healthy I am now a few pounds less than before I had my son. This is great, but some of my pants are still snug around my thighs. Can women carry weight differently after having a baby? Does anyone have any good suggestions for leg/thigh exercises?!? THANKS FOR THE HELP!!

More Help with Reading

I have a daughter who is 10, and she has trouble reading. She likes to read, she likes books, but she struggles. She does well in every other subject, and is social at school and other activities.

She has used all the "context clues" that they have taught, but she never learned phonics. What are some ways that we can incorporate basic...

Can Your Child Swim?

I was wondering how people teach their kids to swim? We have a pool, so I am really determined to get my son swimming sooner than later. He's 4 1/2. He has gone to the YMCA for swim lessons... well, started in the mommy and me "play" class before he was 2, and has progressed into the preschool swim class for 2 or 3 sessions now. And I am so dissatisfied with how the classes are taught, but there is no other place in our area that offers lessons. So I have decided just to try to teach him myself. About a week or so ago, I started...
