How to wean a toddler from bottle feeding

Bottle feeding a baby is a time-consuming and stressful task. You must monitor your milk production, your baby's feeding schedule, and other factors. Once you start weaning your toddler from the bottle, it can be equally as stressful—but for very different reasons! Some mothers feel bad about denying their toddlers something they adore so much, while others worry that if a bottle isn't around at all times, their children won't get enough food or liquids.

Excellent Yet Economical Bifocals

Poor eyesight is a genetic condition that runs in our family. The four of us, me, my husband and two children are having poor eye health. Thus, all of us are wearing bifocals.  We often remind each other to “don’t expect your world to look bright if you are not wearing your pair of eyeglasses”, lol. My husband and I being at the prime of our lives were both prescribed by our optometrist to wear Progressive glasses for comfort, using only one pair for distance and reading.

We also make sure that our lenses be on an anti-glare, because all of us are always infront of the computer for long hours too.
