Moms in the US are up in arms about a recent Motrin ad, the J&J brand of Ibuprofen in the US.
The ad implies that wearing your baby in a sling hurts your back, buy hey, you do it because it is fashionable and "supposedly" good for your child.
Twitter Moms especially did not like this one bit. And in my opinion you shouldn't piss off a group of about 14,000 mothers that are active in microblogging.
First, the Best of the Mommy Bloggers is up on Under the Big Blue Sky.
Check it out, it’s an eclectic mix of stories from the trenches of motherhood.
Second, I read something the other day that is really bugging me.
The debate is raging in blogosphere. Some prominent bloggers have decided to “retire” because, to sum it up, now that blogging has reached mainstream in the US, it’s not cool anymore.
Microblogging, such as Twitter, is now the “in” thing.
I’m going to share a secret. The National Gallery in London does FREE art workshops every Sunday aimed at the entire family to enjoy and learn about art together. The workshops, run by professional artists, focus on an area in the gallery. After a short discussion, you are given insider tips …

Welcome to the first edition of the Best of the Mommy Bloggers Carnival! This carnival highlights posts from the best of the mommy blogger community.
Bloggers were asked to send in their "best post ever" — either in terms of page views, comments, or what each blogger felt was their personal best.
You can tell I am a victim of "mommy rot" as I picked the date of the US presidential election for our carnival debut. Ooopps.
I’m not a big fan of television. There’s not much worth watching. When it comes to a mediocre television drama or sleep – I’ll pick sleep every time. Children’s television is different. Though parents don’t want to admit it, we often use TV as a type of babysitter, a way to keep the kids …
Half term is over, and we had no trips to A&E. I consider this a huge success.
One year I had to deal with a two-year-old who got her finger nail ripped off when it got slammed in the door (her sister swears she didn’t do it) AND a three-year-old who broke her arm climbing out of her cot.
In the UK, kids seem to have time off from school every few weeks. I’m lucky as my children go to state schools. It’s worse at the fee-paying schools. The more you pay for your child’s education here, the more time off they get off school (I guess it comes in handy if you have a chalet in Chamonix and want to get full use of it).
