			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Norwegian scientists have proved that the <strong>children</strong>, who are given a more intense academic load at school, may enhance their natural <strong>IQ level</strong>.<br />
<span id="more-2383"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2384" title="At school" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/At-school.jpg" alt="Education and IQ level" width="400" height="267" /></p>
<p>The fact that the school provides knowledge and adds more reason is not new. However, early studies on this subject show that the children with high IQ levels have most likely received a better education than others. Now, there is strong evidence that additional education makes the <strong>child</strong> more <strong>intelligent</strong>. We are talking about years, and not about seven classes a day and the load of numerous elective courses.</p>
<p>How did it become clear? Some time ago, there was an <strong>education</strong> reform carried out in Norway, and the period of secondary education was increased for two years. The scientists compared the data of the people, who had studied before these developments and after them. It was found that the additional workload had had a positive impact on the growth of the rate of schoolchildren&#8217;s mental development, and their IQ had been increased by 3.7 points on average.</p>
<p>The results of this study are sensational, at least because the vast number of psychologists and educators continue to believe that IQ level is determined by genetic factors. They claim that IQ is stable and not susceptible to any modifications. And for them, it is a matter of faith rather than of scientific findings.</p>
<p>So, if your child has decided to quit school and go get secondary special education, try to convince him or her that a few extra years at school will give him more <strong>intelligence</strong>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some doctors believe that the real trouble for children&#8217;s<strong> teeth</strong> is caused not by chocolate and candies, but by &#8220;healthy&#8221; drinks instead – juices, fruit cocktails, and smoothies.<br />
<span id="more-2434"></span><br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2435" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Childrens-Teeth.jpg" alt="Baby with Teeth" title="A Teething Baby" width="343" height="257" /></p>
<p>The physicians believe the problem is that today&#8217;s children do not want to drink plain water &#8211; the most useful drink on the planet. They do not drink it even as they grow a little older. They do not have this culture, and their parents are guilty of it, since they offer their <strong>children</strong> juices, smoothies, cocoa and other sweetened natural substitutes from an early age, instead of giving their children the most natural liquid for a human being, plain water.</p>
<p>Britain&#8217;s leading dentist Catherine Hurley explains that fruit juices and cocktails, as a rule, are very <strong>acidic</strong>, and their pH levels range from two to three. And every time the environment in the mouth is more acidic than pH 5,5, the teeth get vulnerable to &#8220;acid attacks&#8221;. Parents, of course, understand that their child&#8217;s uncontrolled use of sweets can lead to tooth decay, but they do not know anything about acidity. Propaganda is certainly to be blamed for this, since it makes an emphasis on the harm of sweets, and juices are declared <strong>healthy</strong> drinks. According to Hurley, the most interesting thing is that the terrible picture of the &#8220;deterioration&#8221; of children&#8217;s teeth is observed more frequently in affluent families where parents do not spare money on healthy eating: fruit juices, smoothies, milkshakes&#8230;</p>
<p>So if Hurley&#8217;s message is heard, in the near future the manufacturers may be obliged to warn about the harm caused by fruit and sugary drinks, rather than tell about their health benefits. In the meantime, a good way is to offer your kids a straw if they are so fond of drinking juice instead of water. In addition, if the juice is drunk together with food, its negative impact on the teeth is greatly reduced. And this is the doctors&#8217; second <strong>recommendation</strong>. It will also be good if you drink some plain water after juice, or rinse your mouth with water.</p>

		<title>Arguing with Children Harms Their Self-Esteem</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Parents</strong> of teens, be careful! If you are accustomed to winning in debates by means of suppressing your child&#8217;s opinion, he or she will not be able to defend his/her opinion in other situations.<br />
<span id="more-2363"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2364" title="Teenager after argument" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Teenager-after-argument.jpg" alt="Teenager " width="400" height="526" /></p>
<p>A new research, conducted at the University of Virginia, shows that the <strong>teenagers</strong>, who are not able to convincingly prove their position during an <strong>argument</strong> with their mother, find it harder to resist peer pressure. In contrast, other children are able to calmly and persuasively defend their point of view.</p>
<p>Of course, parents should give their <strong>children</strong> an opportunity to use their arguments in the dispute. However, they must first of all learn to listen – to listen to their children&#8217;s opinion to the end, to try to understand the motives which prompted the <strong>child</strong> to commit a particular act. This is the basic pattern of behavior, which the teenager copies and will continuously apply in life, including interaction with peers.</p>
<p>The skill of reasoned argument will be very useful when a classmate or a friend from the neighborhood will offer your child to try alcohol or drugs for the first time. It is not simple to abandon the &#8220;temptation&#8221;, because one can easily do anything &#8220;in a company&#8221;. And if a teen has an argument and the skill of using it, he or she can prove the <strong>peers</strong> that drugs and alcohol will not do any good in one&#8217;s life. At the same time, the teenager will retain the &#8220;reputation&#8221; in a social group, which is so important in this age.</p>
<p>Of course, parents can simply demand compliance with some rules of conduct, but the consequences of such pressure on the child are unpredictable – the teenager may act in the opposite way, thus demonstrating the protest.</p>
<p>Joanna Marie Chango (Ph.D., a post-graduate student in clinical psychology) and her colleagues have tested the adolescents and their <strong>mothers</strong> (because it is mothers who spend the most time with their children). They were offered to discuss any problems and then take part in a simulated hypothetical situation. As a result of these studies, the children, who did not get their mother&#8217;s support and understanding during the <strong>conversation</strong> with her, were more susceptible to peer pressure.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <strong>parents</strong> of little capricious eaters can affect their appetite by just offering them another plate as a dinner accessory. The main condition is that it must be multi-colored!<br />
<span id="more-2441"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-2442 aligncenter" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/colorful-dishes.jpg" alt="Colorful Table" width="500" height="419" /></p>
<p>The study, conducted by the scientists from Cornell University, has shown that <strong>children</strong>, unlike adults, prefer bright and <strong>colorful dishes</strong>. For example, a child will gladly <strong>eat</strong> even broccoli and fish from a plate, which is decorated with seven different images and painted with 6 <strong>colors</strong>. Adults need only three items and three colors in the picture. So, it is not the parents&#8217; remark, but the color of the plate that is crucial for the child when he or she sees porridge or steamed vegetables.</p>
<p>By the way, last year the British Tesko company invented another way to feed little fastidious <strong>kids</strong> with tasteless cauliflower. The company has raised cauliflower, which is literally colorful. Purple, yellow, green cauliflower is colored this way not because of the use of chemical substances. Cauliflower has just been hybridized with other species, including broccoli.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some <strong>children</strong>, who have had sleep problems as a baby, experience the same difficulties later.<br />
<span id="more-2417"></span><br />
<a href="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/sleep-disorders3.s600x600.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2419" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/sleep-disorders3.s600x600.jpg" alt="" width="425" height="282" /></a><br />
The researchers from the University of Chicago asked 359 mothers to fill out a questionnaire in order to find out whether their kids of nursery school age had sleep <strong>problems</strong>. It was found that 10% of children, who had had these difficulties in infancy, did not get rid of them ever since.</p>
<p>The symptoms of poor <strong>sleep</strong> can be characterized by snoring, the syndrome of &#8220;restless legs&#8221;, the difficulty in falling asleep (more than 15-20 minutes), nightmares, insomnia, and night terrors.</p>
<p>It is needless to say, that restless sleep affects the child&#8217;s daily activities in a negative way. Sleep is an important part of development. The development of cognitive skills and the ability to think, learn and analyze also depend on whether the <strong>child</strong> gets enough sleep, especially at the age from 1 to 3 years.</p>
<p>Not all parents pay attention to the child&#8217;s snoring. Such a situation is normal if the <strong>baby</strong> has a cold, but there should be no <strong>snoring</strong> in the baby&#8217;s usual state. Snoring during sleep is a clear message that the child may be prone to sleep apnea and various breath problems during sleep. If the disease <strong>develops</strong> and is not treated, the consequences can be very unpleasant: an increased risk of hypertension, heart <strong>disease</strong>, obesity and diabetes.</p>
<p>If you notice that your child has sleep problems, try to stick to the regime, walk in the fresh air more often, offer your child to play active outdoor games, and provide him or her with a healthy diet. If you cannot get rid of the problem in such a way, go to the doctor immediately, especially in the case of sleep apnea.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why don&#8217;t our children like to eat <strong>vegetables</strong>? One of the reasons may be sensitivity to bitterness.<br />
<span id="more-2365"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2366" title="Children cook vegetables" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Children-cooking-vegetables.jpg" alt="Children Dont Like Veggies" width="315" height="315" /></p>
<p>This phenomenon is quite common among <strong>children</strong>. For example, 70% of the kids, who participated in the study conducted by American scientists in the laboratory for the study of obesity, said that they would rather be drawn to an apple or a banana than eat lettuce or even less desirable <strong>Broccoli</strong>.</p>
<p>Dr. Jennifer Orlet Fisher, who led the study, says that the gene TAS2R38, which is responsible for the way we perceive the <strong>bitter taste</strong>, should be blamed for it.</p>
<p>What does the doctor recommend to the parents, whose children fail to eat useful vegetables? One should just reduce their taste with low-fat yogurt or buttermilk and add applesauce or hummus to the salad.</p>
<p>Cook delicious dishes – from the point of view of your children, – and then your kids will eat broccoli, <strong>lettuce</strong>, and other vegetables.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Flynn Christopher, <strong>Miranda Kerr</strong> and <strong>Orlando Bloom</strong>’s first child, celebrated his <strong>first birthday</strong> on January 6 with family members and several friends attending. Five of the guests were Flynn’s friends of the same age, and there were things to enjoy for grown-ups and little ones alike.<br />
<span id="more-2431"></span><br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2432" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/miranda-kerr-240.jpg" alt="" width="315" height="315" /></p>
<p>The one-year-old’s great surprise was the first ever cake in his life! Kerr, who graced the occasion with her cooking, shared the details with PEOPLE as she debuted as the Qantas airways ambassador. It was an organic cake, gluten-free, she said Thursday, and <strong>Flynn</strong>, who had never seen one before, started the celebration with putting his face in it.</p>
<p>The happy parents also called in a balloon man to provide balloons – which Flynn adores – in large quantities. There were also activities for the boy’s friends.</p>
<p>The inexperienced baby was able to last for only a couple of hours, added the Victoria’s Secret Angel, 28. Then the boy adjourned for his nap.</p>
<p>It’s new discoveries for Flynn’s parents every day, Kerr said, as he is exploring his abilities and “almost walking,” making his parents proud of him.</p>
<p>Bloom, 35, is always there to play his dad’s part, she added, delighting her with the way he rises to the occasion every time and feeling glad to be a father.</p>

<p>Naturally, there was a safety glass wall between Sofia Walker, 3, and the <strong>lion</strong> Malik, but that did nothing to diminish the ferocity with which the animal tried to get at the girl with his paws. It paused and then continued to strike at the glass making his anger manifest – yet failing to get the undaunted girl to cringe away from the sight.</p>
<p>The Wellington Zoo’s Paul Hatton explained that the threatening pawing was intended to show that Malik wasn’t going to share his breakfast with the <strong>girl</strong>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it became clear that a young Englishwoman had got <strong>pregnant</strong> again despite taking the <strong>contraceptive</strong> pill, the doctors decided that she simply had not followed the instructions as for taking it. But she became pregnant again and again, though she had referred to a more reliable method of intrauterine spiral.<br />
<span id="more-2394"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2395" title="Gemma Potter with family" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Gemma-Potter-with-family.jpg" alt="Gemma Potter got pregnant despite contraceprion" width="450" height="316" /></p>
<p><strong>Gemma Potter</strong>, the resident of the English city of Plymouth, is only 23 years old now. In 2006, when she met her future husband, she was a very young girl. Their love was passionate and mutual, but soon Gemma noticed a strange thing: all the contraceptives, which she resorted to, were completely ineffective.</p>
<p>As a result, she has given birth to three <strong>children</strong> during 5 years, and two pregnancies ended in miscarriages.</p>
<p>But the most piquant is the fact that the woman with three children and a young mother – judging by modern standards – is pregnant for the sixth time, although she took every precaution to prevent <strong>pregnancy</strong>.</p>
<p>Gemma and her husband Glenn made love no more than three times from the beginning of September until early December – once a month, as it turns out. The woman was very worried that she would get pregnant once again. But there was no way to escape her fate. Neither pills, nor intrauterine devices and hormone injections could help her. During the fall, she and Glenn used condoms, but Gemma still got pregnant.</p>
<p>At first, the doctors, whom she spoke with, only smiled and advised her to comply with the prescribed rules for the use of various contraceptive methods more carefully. But now they look at the woman as a kind of a medical phenomenon.</p>
<p>Gemma complains she has forgotten what a party with friends is like. She has forgotten the taste of champagne, whiskey, and wine. She will never be able to find a good job again, and all of that is because she is constantly pregnant. Gemma loves her children and her husband, but she is terribly afraid to once again discover that she is pregnant.</p>
<p>The woman decided that in future she would take advantage of this feature of her organism. After giving <strong>birth</strong> to their fourth child, Gemma is going to become a surrogate mother.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>January 7 is the birthday of <strong>Beyoncé</strong> and Jay-Z’s little girl, and <strong>Blue Ivy Carter</strong> is her <strong>name</strong>. There’s nothing pink about that girl, but she is all done in blue. According to what a source spilled to PEOPLE, the expectant parents even sent out blue Christmas gifts to their friends as a symbolic harbinger of their daughter’s arrival.<br />
<span id="more-2415"></span><br />
<img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2416" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Beyonce-gives-birth-Ivy-Blue2.jpg" alt="" width="315" height="315" /></p>
<p>Fans and friends speculate that the name Ivy is the verbal variation of the Roman number IV, or 4, which plays an eminent part in the lives of Beyoncé and Jay-Z and in turn is played up by them.</p>
<p>Their birthdays fall on the 4th – September for Beyoncé and December for <strong>Jay-Z</strong> – and the day of their marriage was also the 4th (April 2008). It is believed that they had IV tattooed on their ring fingers. Beyoncé’s latest album was also entitled 4.</p>
<p>On the other hand, three of Jay-Z’s albums were named The Blueprint – the first of these came out in 2001, the second, subtitled The Gift &amp; The Curse, in the following year, and The Blueprint 3 was released in 2009. It contains the track A Star Is Born where Jay-Z refers to himself as the paragon rapper, blueprint for all rappers (not for the first time by far!). Therefore, the Blue in his daughter’s name may echo her dad’s musical personality.</p>
<p>There were some who tumbled to the name significance straightaway, as evidenced by a few Twitter messages like the one from @kisssmyDIAMONDS that tied up the Blue to Jay-Z’s The Blueprint, which was in the same breath proclaimed as the rapper’s “hottest album ever.” An @omgitsralph’s tweet linked IVy to IV and 4, known as a special number for Beyoncé, and Blue to Jay-Z’s Blueprint series of albums, thereby tying up both parents in their girl’s name.</p>
<p>Until the parents have confirmed or denied the tie-ups it’s all pure conjecture, of course, but it sounds pretty conclusive.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, another Twitter message from Aunt Solange of Sunday stated that Blue Ivy Carter is the prettiest baby in the world, and no-one doubts that!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A new <strong>trailer</strong> for the movie &#8220;What to Expect when Expecting a Child&#8221; proves that <strong>pregnancy</strong> is not an easy process. The first thing, which comes to your mind, is the initial phrase of one of the heroines, saying that &#8220;it sucks&#8221; and that now she &#8220;most of all wants to smash her husband&#8217;s face!&#8221;<br />
<span id="more-2340"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2341" title="What to Expect 1" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/What-to-Expect-1.jpg" alt="Jennifer Lopez in new movies" width="500" height="264" /></p>
<p>And that is because these <strong>expectant mothers</strong> were not at all prepared for what they will have to encounter with.</p>
<p>The film is based on the bestselling book by <strong>Heidi Murkoff</strong>, which tells about five couples, who go through all the difficulties and joys of pregnancy. Some of them decide to have <strong>children</strong> despite their age, some of them come to this decision spontaneously, and the others are aimed at adopting a child. What unites the characters is that they are making funny discoveries, while getting ready to become <strong>parents</strong> (one of them is the phrase uttered by the character of Cameron Diaz: &#8220;If I knew I was going to have a rack this gorgeous, I would have gotten knocked up years ago!&#8221;).</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2342" title="What to Expect 2" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/What-to-Expect-2.jpg" alt="New movie What to Expect when Expecting a Child" width="500" height="319" /></p>
<p>The cast of this romantic comedy is star-studded: the movie involves <strong>Jennifer Lopez</strong>, Brooklyn Decker, Rodrigo Santoro, Anna Kendrick, Chace Crawford, and Matthew Morrison. They all promise to please the audience with the <strong>film</strong> next May.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <strong>Maines twins</strong> were born identical boys, but before long their lives swerved apart so drastically that now they are living as brother and sister.<br />
<span id="more-2334"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2335" title="Maines twins" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Maines-twins.jpg" alt="Twin-boys Wyatt and Jonas Maines" width="450" height="311" /></p>
<p>When brothers Wyatt and Jonas were getting on to four, Wyatt began to show his preference for dolls; he also loved donning girls’ clothes and high heels and walk about the house like this.</p>
<p>No-one paid much attention to that until the day when Wyatt stepped out dressed in his mother’s shoes and a sequined shirt. His <strong>parents</strong> wanted to know then if he felt comfortable in that kind of <strong>clothes</strong> and got an affirmative reply, according to the Boston Globe. Brother Jonas also told his dad that he’d better accept his brother as a girl and daughter.</p>
<p>It was an idea that didn’t sink in at once. Father, <strong>Wayne Maines</strong>, had been dreaming of handing down his passion for hunting to his sons and couldn’t wait until he would take them out to the Maine woods and hunt deer together. He admitted to the ABCNews that he fretted over the transition and felt as if he was “losing a son.”</p>
<p>Deciding to live with it, the Maines held a family council when the <strong>children</strong> turned nine, explaining to them the meaning of freedom, but also about fear, evil and hate that may also become part of their lives.</p>
<p>Other lessons their father taught them were to walk through life with integrity and pride taking care of one another and staying loyal to their friends.</p>
<p>The parents went on to engage help of the Children’s Hospital Gender Management Services Clinic that offers ground-breaking services for teaching parents how to handle a <strong>transgender child</strong> and recognize his or her emotional and medical difficulties.</p>
<p>Now, at 14, Wyatt is definite that his is a girl’s life. She is known as Nicole and acts like a sister to his brother Jonas. She says she has always been looking on herself as a girl and it makes her “cringe” whenever she thinks of being a boy.</p>
<p>The only thing Nicole lacks is having a female body and she means to get it! She needs a body “that matches up to my image of myself’’ and intends to undergo <strong>gender reassignment surgery</strong> as soon as she can.</p>
<p>In the common course of events such a surgery isn’t performed before the applicant turns 18; moreover, in New England where the Maines family lives there are no hospitals that do that kind of operation. It will be either Montreal or Philadelphia for Nicole to finally realize her wish. Meanwhile she is half excited, half anxious about the possible pain and the outcome of the surgery.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Traveling</strong> as a family with six children is not a disaster, but the most common thing for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Demi Moore often appears in public with her three daughters, and it is not an event for them, but something of a tradition, just as a <strong>family</strong> dinner.<br />
<span id="more-2329"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2330" title="Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt with family" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Angelina-Jolie-and-Brad-Pitt-with-family.jpg" alt="Brangelina Family" width="450" height="439" /></p>
<h3>Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: 6 Children</h3>
<p>The number of <strong>children</strong> in Hollywood families is not surprising. A new trend is that the family must be very large.</p>
<p>The first son of <strong>Angelina Jolie</strong>, Maddox, had been born before dating <strong>Brad Pitt</strong>. The actress did not think of a big family, she just wanted to raise a baby. People say, that it was one of the reasons why she finally won the heart of the most handsome man in Hollywood. There had been everything needed in the marriage of Pitt with the actress Jennifer Aniston, as Brad&#8217;s friends confessed. They had love, common interests, mutual understanding, but they had no children. Several years ago Brad&#8217;s dream of a large family came true: he became the head of a large family. Brad&#8217;s first adopted son is a Cambodian, he is followed by Angelina Jolie&#8217;s charming adopted black daughter Zahara from Ethiopia. Angelina Jolie went to adopt the girl together with Brad Pitt, arm in arm.</p>
<p>Then there was a blond beauty Shiloh Nouvel, the first biological <strong>child</strong> of the star parents. Jolie once joked to explain that they had <strong>adopted</strong> their second son Pax Thien (his homeland is Viet Nam) to have the balance between boys and girls. Jolie has repeatedly said she does not plan to have children, because there are so many orphans in the world, who need parents. But the twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline were born, and the balance between adopted and biological children has finally been reached.</p>
<p>According to Pitt, the children have turned his life into chaos, but the actor is happy about it and says that six children is just the beginning.</p>
<p>However, there is one small difficulty: the family is now reluctantly invited with their children. Especially after the bachelor Clooney told the whole movie world, what his mansion had been turned into by Pitt&#8217;s kids in a matter of a couple of hours.</p>
<p>The family&#8217;s hobby is traveling. For the foster kids not to lose contact with their native cultures, Jolie and Pitt are frequent visitors to Cambodia, neighboring Vietnam, and Ethiopia.</p>
<h3>Heidi Klum and Seal: 4 Children</h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2331" title="Heidi Klum with family" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Heidi-Klum-with-family.jpg" alt="Heid Klum and Seal with 4 children" width="450" height="326" /></p>
<p><strong>Heidi Klum</strong> calls her private life not an easy one, but very happy. The fans at first called her marriage to British singer <strong>Seal</strong> a fairy tale about the Beauty and the Beast. The fact is that Seal suffered from tuberculoderma as a child, that is why his face is covered with scars. Nevertheless, it was not he, who showed affection for Heidi. The &#8220;Angel&#8221; of Victoria&#8217;s Secret brand was the first to fall in love with a dark-skinned giant.</p>
<p>The couple have four children, but the <strong>parents</strong> do not plan to stop and intend to adopt a <strong>baby</strong>. The top model said that they had thought about the possibility of taking a foster child to their family, but finally they were convinced by the example of Sandra Bullock. Recently, the actress has adopted the boy Louis. Heidi and Seal are inspired by Sandra&#8217;s decision and are going to do the same. For the sake of raising children and spending more time with the family Heidi Klum once decided to leave the catwalk and terminate a million-dollar contract with the famous brand of underwear, which she had been working with for a long time.</p>
<p>The hobby of the family is fashion. Heidi says that Seal has an excellent taste, and she and their children have to try hard to match him.</p>
<h3>Demi Moore: 3 Children</h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2332" title="Demi Moore with family" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Demi-Moore-with-family.jpg" alt="Demi Moore with three daughters and two ex-husbands" width="450" height="316" /></p>
<p>The actress&#8217; childhood was not happy: her parents were addicted to alcohol, and it had the most unfortunate effect on the atmosphere in the family. Every day ended with a scandal and a fight. When the truth about Demi&#8217;s stepfather not being her biological father was revealed, the future actress could not stand this news for a long time and left home.</p>
<p>The actress wanted a big family, got married with a star of blockbusters, <strong>Bruce Willis</strong>, and gave birth to three daughters. In 2000, <strong>Demi Moore</strong> divorced, not being able to reconcile with the husband&#8217;s adultery and her best friend&#8217;s betrayal. Demi&#8217;s young fan, the unknown at that time actor Ashton Kutcher became the stepfather of her daughters and the actress&#8217; husband. To the envy of Hollywood, Demi appeared at social events in the company of her husband, her three daughters and her ex-husband, with whom she maintained friendly relations.</p>
<p>This November was a run of bad luck for Demi, since she initiated a divorce after Kutcher’s extramarital affair. Unfortunately, the marriage was not saved even by the couple&#8217;s dream of adopting a child.</p>
<p>The hobby of the family is visiting social events.</p>
<h3>Victoria and David Beckham: 4 Children</h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2333" title="David Beckham with family" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/David-Beckham-with-family.jpg" alt="David and Victoria Beckham with children" width="450" height="421" /></p>
<p>The singer and designer and her famous husband, a soccer midfielder, already have three sons: 11-year-old Brooklyn, 8-year-old Romeo, and 5-year-old Cruz. Now, this &#8220;mini football team&#8221;, as the English people call the children of the <strong>star couple</strong>, includes a little sister, Harper Seven.</p>
<p>The soccer player has recently appeared on the field with a new tattoo, dedicated to the little girl. <strong>David Beckham</strong> dedicated other images on his body, his amulets, to Victoria and his sons. David says they have always wanted to have a <strong>big family</strong>. Who knows, maybe soon they will think about having the fifth child!</p>
<p>The family hobby is football. Even <strong>Victoria Beckham</strong> does not mind playing a little with their sons in the yard. But with the birth of the baby it can be changed soon!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Unluckily, <strong>Jim Bob</strong> and <strong>Michelle Duggar</strong>, following a tragic turn of events, are still left with only the 19 of them – the 20th child is not coming.<br />
<span id="more-2322"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2323" title="Michelle Duggar" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Michelle-Duggar.jpg" alt="Mother of 19 Michelle Duggar had a miscarriage" width="350" height="338" /></p>
<p>As they showed up for a routine check-up on Thursday wanting to learn the sex of their expected child, the doctor failed to detect a heartbeat and came to the conclusion that Michelle, 45, had suffered a <strong>miscarriage</strong> some time during her second trimester.</p>
<p>It was with a deep sadness that the couple returned home and informed their <strong>19 children</strong> that the next child had perished – coming right after the evening that they spent discussing various names for the <strong>baby</strong> and eager to learn the baby’s sex.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, they are going to give the unborn a name after they get to know the sex and use it for a funeral service.</p>
<p>It was a bitter moment for Michelle and her husband when they had to break the news to the children. &#8220;They have all been so excited about this baby and looking forward to April coming around and having a new little one in our arms,&#8221; she recounted. But, she added, she and her family understand that the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away, and the choice is up to Him.</p>
<p>Before that, the 19 Kids and Counting crowd had come through a medical trial that had hit their youngest, Josie, born about two years ago. It is also Michelle’s second miscarriage, the first one occurring during her second <strong>pregnancy</strong>. At the time they brought it down to oral birth control she was undergoing, which became one of the reasons Jim Bob and Michelle made up their minds that the number of kids they were to have should rest with God.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Samantha Harris</strong> had a good chance to rival her usually curvier Hollywood female friends – but it proved to be a short-lived success. As soon as she was through <strong>breastfeeding</strong>, her assets dwindled back to what she had before.<br />
<span id="more-2317"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2318" title="Samantha Harris" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Samantha-Harris.jpg" alt="Samantha Harris with her second child" width="400" height="494" /></p>
<p>Is she worried with that?</p>
<p>Not a bit! Harris has other ideas about being busty &#8211; maybe because she has grown accustomed to not having <strong>big boobs</strong>. “I’m okay with that,” the Entertainment Tonight correspondent confessed to PEOPLE when cornered at The Beauty Book for Brain Cancer launch event on November 14 in Los Angeles. She admitted that she wouldn’t like to be famous just for her cleavage – although when she was pregnant, her <strong>breasts</strong> were very much in evidence.</p>
<p>But that was only a temporary growth, as she knows, since it happened this way when she was bearing her first daughter, Josselyn Sydney, 4 years ago. Now history repeated itself with her second, Hillary Madison, who turned 10 months.</p>
<p>When they are among themselves, most <strong>women</strong> agree that large breasts are a difficult thing to manage in everyday life, the 37-year-old says. So she is sure that the cleavage is played up for men’s sake more than not.</p>
<p>Recently she had to make fashion choices for her bras – and she didn’t like the experience. “You feel constricted” was her conclusion, you always had to mind them, especially during workouts.</p>
<p>But it’s now a thing of the past, and Harris is promoting a new trend for the red carpet – drool-adorned gowns.</p>
<p>It’s a design that goes back to her girls who would leave spit or other signs of their activity on her. Now it’s mostly drool, laughs the happy mother, because little Hillary Madison took to gnawing her shoulder!</p>
<p>Meanwhile her house often reverberates with the sounds of chase as her younger is trying to catch up with her elder sister &#8211; “Hillary just wants to be around her big sister Josselyn and go wherever she goes.” Harris says that this desire makes Hillary exercise a lot in her walk so she gets less wobbly at a faster rate than Josselyn did.</p>
<p>This is a great example of the <strong>second child</strong> syndrome at work, is the belief of Harris and her hubby Michael Hess. She remembers the time when they were doing everything they could for their first girl – now it’s so different with having to be torn between the two cuties!</p>

<p><strong>Kourtney Kardashian</strong>, 32, and her longtime partner <strong>Scott Disick</strong>, 28, have overcome some hurdles during their four years together and won a lot of happiness through their <strong>children</strong>. Their first child, son Mason Dash Disick, was an unexpected arrival (as Kourtney confessed to PEOPLE at the time) but was a &#8220;100 percent a blessing&#8221; and has been one for almost two years (he is looking forward to his second birthday on December 14). Now Kourtney and Disick have another kid coming!</p>
<p>The couple is happy, shares Kourtney’s sister Kim with PEOPLE – and she is as happy and excited as they are.</p>
<p>Her other sister, Khloé, tweeted after Mason&#8217;s arrival remarking how her sibling had changed having found another use for her boobs apart from flashing them. What is she going to say after Kourtney’s second?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>American scientists have linked <strong>teenagers</strong>&#8216; aggressiveness to the amount of soda they drink. Sarah Salnick and her colleagues from the University of Vermont in the USA have surveyed more than 1.8 thousand schoolchildren aged 14 to 18 years.<br />

<p>The scientists were interested to know how much sweet <strong>soda</strong> the teenagers had drunk during the previous week. Also, the participants of the experiment were asked whether they had been <strong>aggressive</strong> towards their peers during the previous year. Moreover, they specified whether the teens had had a gun or cold arms with them.</p>
<p>The adolescents, who used to drink more than 14 cans of soda <strong>drinks</strong> per week, confessed of carrying a weapon twice as often as those who drank only two cans. Among the fans of soda, the probability of showing <strong>aggression</strong> was higher by 9-15%.</p>
<p>Carbonated soda drinks have long been in the physicians&#8217; black list. The main remark concerning these drinks is the increase in blood sugar levels and the risk of pancreatic <strong>cancer</strong>. In addition, there is a research proving that carbonated drinks cause premature aging.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The couple Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar definitely don’t like the number 19, so they decided to have one more <strong>child</strong> – at least one. Their reality show on TLC is not called 19 Kids and Counting for nothing! It’s time for counting in once more for them. On Tuesday they announced that their next <strong>baby</strong>, the 20th, is on the way.<br />
<span id="more-2249"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2250" title="Michelle Duggar Pregnant" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Michelle-Duggar-Pregnant.jpg" alt="Michelle Duggar with family" width="450" height="300" /></p>
<p>The Today show has the latest information on the great event in an exclusive interview with <strong>Michelle Duggar</strong>, who is into her fourth month. She is 45 and she says she hadn’t been expecting to bear another child, but when God obliged, she and <strong>Jim Bob Duggar</strong> felt “so excited” and “so grateful.”</p>
<p>The Duggar brood couldn’t take the news in at first, thinking that their parents were joking. Her husband chose to announce the news to the <strong>kids</strong> when they had been arranged on the staircase for taking a picture – he shouted out, “Smile – Mom’s going to have another baby!” Michelle was amused to see how their jaws fell and they swung round to take a look at her and decide whether it was true.</p>
<p>As for her hubby Jim Bob, he claims to be thrilled at his Number 20, for he is sure that all his kids “are so sweet” and they are a blessing bestowed on them by God. Besides, he said they had never meant to have an uneven number of <strong>children</strong>.</p>
<p>Michelle’s already past her first trimester sick spells; apart from that she is in good health and even believes she is better fit than 20 years ago, especially after a year’s workouts five and more days every week! Her food craving is dill pickles.</p>
<p>The gender of the baby will be known by Christmastime.</p>
<p>Their youngest girl, Josie, to turn two in December, proved a trial to the family at the time due to her gall-bladder problems and preeclampsia that caused premature delivery by more than three months. Thus Josie was saved and now enjoys excellent health.</p>
<p>From Josie the youngest, the <strong>Duggars&#8217; children</strong> to the oldest, 23-year-old Joshua: Jordyn-Grace, Jennifer, Jana, Johannah, Jackson, Justin, James, Jason, Jeremiah, Jedidiah, Joy-Anna, Josiah, Joseph, Jinger, Jessa, Jill, John-David.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Why should <strong>children</strong> be protected from <strong>influenza</strong>? First of all, they suffer particularly much from it, and various complications may occur against the background of frequent colds, thus leading to a chronic disease.<br />
<span id="more-2227"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2228" title="Protect childrne from flu" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Protect-childrne-from-flu.jpg" alt="Cold prevention" width="400" height="600" /></p>
<h3>Why Do Children Get Sick So Often?</h3>
<p>The reason why children are very often ill is explained by the typical of their age imperfect immune and anatomical and physiological mechanisms which should protect the child&#8217;s body from respiratory <strong>viruses</strong>. Secondly, it is children that bring <strong>flu</strong> viruses from kindergarten or school. The incidence of flu in children is 5-7 times higher than in the case of adults. The standard scheme of getting infection looks as follows – parents get infected from their ill child, and then they are followed by grandparents. If at least one link in the family is protected from the flu, the incidence decreases significantly.</p>
<h3>How Often Can a Kid Get Sick?</h3>
<p>Still, <strong>colds</strong> in children are inevitable. According to pediatricians, a kid may be ill with various colds 6-8 times a year, and it will be within normal limits. Another issue is that <strong>prevention</strong> and strengthening of children&#8217;s organism should make illnesses not too frequent and as mild as possible.</p>
<h3>5 Flu and Cold Prevention Tips</h3>
<ol>
<li>Observe the rules of hygiene. Contrary to a popular belief, the flu, SARS, etc. are not only airborne, but are also transmitted via handshaking or a towel.</li>
<li>Lead a <strong>healthy lifestyle</strong>. Everyone knows what that means, but not all follow this rule. Meanwhile, the conditions and way of life in 55% of cases determine our health, and genetic factors are only responsible for 5-10%.</li>
<li>Strengthen the <strong>immune system</strong>. In autumn and winter, you should regularly take multivitamin complexes.</li>
<li>Take preventive measures. Many doctors recommend vaccination as a kind of protection. If, for some reason, you are not going to get the vaccine, you must use non-specific measures: folk remedies and immunostimulants.</li>
<li>Demonstrate awareness. If you do <strong>get sick</strong>, reduce your contacts to a minimum and get your treatment at home. Thus you will not infect your colleagues and neighbors, and the complications will not be so likely to occur.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Adolescents are now reaching puberty at an earlier age. Manufacturers of <strong>underwear</strong> know about it. So, one of the British producers of lingerie for women presented a <strong>bra</strong> model for 9-year-old girls.<br />
<span id="more-2211"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2212" title="Bra for Girls" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Bra-for-Girls.jpg" alt="Lingerie for 9-years old girls" width="400" height="367" /></p>
<p>Mothers from all around the country immediately responded. They have agreed that girls are growing faster and asked the manufacturer not to make the <strong>bra for girls</strong> sexual. The model, that the designers suggested, was discussed by the whole world in one of the most popular social networks for moms, Mumsnet. For this purpose, there has been created a special discussion club! As a result, <strong>mothers</strong> agreed on the model, which would not have any sexuality at all.</p>
<p>The new bra for <strong>9-year-old girls</strong> costs 9 pounds, has no bones and no lace, while the design fully corresponds to the idea suggested by the moms in Mumsnet.</p>
<p>International research confirms that young girls are now reaching puberty about one year earlier than 20 years ago. What does it mean? Are the first-graders going to wear bras soon?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>According to the researchers, <strong>fit parents</strong> can often pass on to their children special genes that will make them <strong>slim</strong>, too. The probability of a child being born thin is three times bigger in such a family.<br />
<span id="more-2191"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2192" title="Slim Parents and Children" src="http://geniuspregnancy.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Slim-Parents-and-Children.jpg" alt="Slim mother and daughter" width="400" height="530" /></p>
<p>The scientists have been studying the height and <strong>weight</strong> of the parents and children from 7000 families for 5 years. The analysis of Body Mass Index (BMI) has shown that when both parents have a lower index, the probability that the <strong>child</strong> will be thin is 16.2%. But in the cases when the index was higher, the probability of being fit was only 7.8%.</p>
<p>The index of thin <strong>children</strong> was about 18.5 or lower, though normally the index should be 18.5 &#8211; 24.9. If the index ranges from 25 to 29.9, the child is <strong>overweight</strong>, and in the cases when the BMI exceeds 30, one can diagnose obesity.</p>
<p>By the way, when both parents were overweight, the child was thin in only 5.3% of cases, and if they were <strong>obese</strong>, only 2.5% of the children were slim.</p>
<p>The head of the research, Dr Katrina Whitaker from the Department of Epidemiology and Public Health at University College London admits that the researchers had already been discussing the connection between the parents&#8217; weight and their children&#8217;s cases of overweight before this study. But thin children and their parents had never been in the focus of their attention.</p>
<p>It is well known that all genes have two versions called alleles. Most likely, the genes responsible for weight also exist in two versions: the first one is associated with low weight, and the second one &#8211; with <strong>obesity</strong>. Accordingly, fit parents have more &#8220;skinny allele genes&#8221; which they can pass on to their children.</p>
