Welcome

Welcome to www.pregnancyandbabyinformation.com!
We are so excited to have you as a part of our online community. My name is Molly Ursini, mother to Emilia. This site is more or less a record of my experience, thus far, through pregnancy, birth, motherhood and beyond.
I have always had a passion for health and fitness, and looked towards the future to the day when I would become a Mother. Although I am not a medical professional, I was ACE Certified for a number of years, I am a certified Yoga instructor and taught Bikram (hot) yoga for 2 years. Nutrition and skincare are more or less my hobbies and I enjoy researching “What’s New” in these arenas.
When I became pregnant and evolution occurred. As I researched my nutrition, and what was “Best” for baby, I found that what was “Best” was usually a Natural, or ideally Organic alternative. My Mommy community came together and I learned about “Safe Baby Bottles” (thanks Quyen!) and “Chemicals in Cosmetics” (thank you Steph!). I learned that with the right resources it is easy to make your own baby food (thank you Joci!) and that was just the tip of the iceberg.
After the scary toy recall last year information kept flooding my way and I found that the most important part of being a parent is being an advocate. In today’s society we parents must carry the additional responsibility of protecting our children from the environment around them. Unfortunately while we can’t change the world, we can change our world. We can change the way we clean our homes, the cosmetics we put on ourselves and our children, the foods we eat, the clothes we wear, and the toys they play with to name a few things. The good news is that as the world changes and being eco-friendly becomes more mainstream you can impact and influence the world your child grows up in. Whether it is making sure your daycare uses “clean” cleaners, your neighbor’s garden with awareness, or your local stores carry the products you require, you can have impact by being a conscious consumer and an advocate. People are open to this new “Greener” world and the changes that come with it.
This site is designed to create awareness and act as a resource for you, your family and your community. You will see throughout the site there are blue hyperlinks, which will take you to additional resources and directly to our online store. Here you can buy most of the products listed, many of them for less than what you would pay retail and with free shipping directly to your home.
Not only that, but 10% of all net proceeds from this website go to various Environmental and Children’s charities. Please support this site by visiting our advertisers, and our online store for your purchases.
Finally, this is just the beginning of this site and this online community. If you have any question, or comments on how to better this site and the resources available please feel free to email me at anytime at:

I wish you and your family health and happiness!
Warmest Regards,
Molly Ursini
