MLK and Tu Bishvat Have More in Common Than You Think

Arielle Kaplan

What does a Jewish holiday for trees and Martin Luther King, Jr. have in common? A lot, actually. This year, both Tu Bishvat and MLK Day of Service fall on Monday, January 21. (Hey, it’s no… Thanksgivukkah, but we’ll take it!) The former celebrates the life of trees, and the latter celebrates the life of an influential American civil rights leader. Both holidays are commemorated by giving back to the earth and our communities — so it's a pretty cool opportunity for a cultural mashup and a prime "teaching moment" you… >> Read More

Tara Worthey Segal

Pregnancy, as so many of us have experienced, tends to turn our bodies into public property.

Luckily, Sperling-Milner… >> Read More

What’s Your Kid Really Like? Their Birth Story Tells You Everything

Stacy Reiber

Each year I subject my children to listening to their birth stories. I love reliving the magic of those moments and I consider it a right of passage for them. But I also share the stories to remind… them that they are who they are and they have been since the day they were born. And while I can’t prove these things to be true, I do think our children show us who they are the minute they enter the world. Here are five ways you can determine what your child's future holds:… >> Read More

Does Having an Orgasm Help You Get Pregnant? Oh Yes!

Arielle Kaplan

Stop us if you've heard this one: Having an orgasm can help you get pregnant. Unfortunately, the veracity of this rumor has long been suspect. Lacking concrete evidence, doctors have typically… considered it a dubious claim, many cheerfully suggesting, "It definitely can't hurt!" But, well, let's just say that science is awesome. And luckily for us gals, a new study suggests that the orgasm/conception connection might be more than just an old wives' tale. While writing his upcoming book Tulips at Midnight: Exploring the latest Research into… >> Read More
