What is Croup?
It’s not unusual to hear someone remark, “Oh, he sounds so croupy,” upon hearing your young child’s loose, rattling cough. Medically speaking, however, this isn’t accurate. Croup isn’t characterized by a phlegmy-sounding cough; instead it’s associated with a sharp, barking cough. While this symptom alone can often be used to identify croup, there are other symptoms and risk factors that can lead you to a diagnosis of croup. Knowing the progression of symptoms and how to treat them can ease your mind and your child’s discomfort.
Types of Birth Control Pills Available
When birth control pills (or the Pill) were first made available to women in 1960, it was a liberating breakthrough. For the first time, women had a way to directly control reproduction. What they couldn’t control were the significant side effects associated with birth control pills, which until the 1980s were produced as a one-dose, one-hormone-fits all medication. Today however there are a number of different types of birth control pills available, with different hormones in differing levels, giving women a number of options to minimize side effects and maximize reproductive control.

All of these tasks leave little time and energy for time spent together that is not focused on daily tasks. One of the hardest things for moms and dads to remember after they become parents is that they can talk about other things besides their kids. Rediscovering topics of discussion, spending time together and enjoying each others company are the goal of any fun date ideas for home.
