I did research when I was pregnant with my first daughter and was horrified by the chemicals in products, even those meant for babies. I would have to go to 50 different places just to get my house and my kid clean.
Cuddly toy rabbits were a real comfort for all of my babies – once they got to a certain age they would nuzzle the fur.
I certainly love getting to know the babies if I’m going to be working with them.
eBay started with a core focus on the collector. At the time of its S-1, six or seven percent of its total sales were Beanie Babies.
I was raised to think women had babies, stayed at home, and men worked. By the time I got ready to do it, I thought I had all the answers. Only somebody had changed the questions.
When I was pregnant with Alijah, little Hank would have all these questions. Where do babies come from? So I was open with him.
My parents didn’t want me to go into show business. They were afraid of what would happen if I didn’t succeed. They wanted me to get married and have babies. I never saw marriage and family in my life.
I know the importance of family. I mean, it really completes me as a person. I want lots of children; I want so many children. I look at babies’ pictures, and I am like… I love kids.
We Houstonians are a spicy lot. We raise our babies with tongues of fire, mostly lit by chips and salsa. Our blood is as thick and warm as queso.
I’m not cut out to lug babies around!
I was born on January 8, 1942, exactly three hundred years after the death of Galileo. I estimate, however, that about two hundred thousand other babies were also born that day. I don’t know whether any of them was later interested in astronomy.
Relying on the face might be human nature – even babies prefer to look at attractive people. But, of course, judging someone based on the geometry of his features is, from a moral and legal standpoint, no better than judging him based on the color of his skin.
My friends who have babies can’t do anything. You can’t go out at night. Having a baby is like a DUI from the universe.
I totally want, like, 18 babies.
Babies make you do things for them. They get you up and they get you moving.
Ours is an age of pedagogy. Anxious parents instruct their children more and more, at younger and younger ages, until they’re reading books to babies in the womb.
There is more excitement, more amazement when a first is born. No subsequent babies can have that impact.
I’m a have-a-go dad. I like babies.
I can’t believe it’s been four years now, and from watching that pilot, we really all looked like babies. It’s unbelievable just how far everything has come. I’m happier now than I’ve ever been on the show and in my life. I really owe so much of my happiness to ‘Glee.’
Everyone knows now how early a fetus becomes a baby. Women who have been pregnant have seen their babies on ultrasounds. They know that there is a terrible truth to those horrific pictures the anti-choice fanatics hold up in front of abortion clinics.
Milk is for babies. When you grow up you have to drink beer.
I never thought about writing. I was married young, I was still in college, as we did then, and I had two babies before I was 25, and I loved them, and I loved taking care of them, but I was a little bit cuckoo, staying at home and not having a creative outlet.
To suggest that you can’t be both a mother who is completely in love with her babies, and a professional who is tough and tenacious, is ridiculous.
Neuroscience is now a very important research area in biology. We are now understanding a lot more about brains in babies, as well as children and adults.
Look around on your next plane trip. The iPad is the new pacifier for babies and toddlers. Younger school-aged children read stories on smartphones; older boys don’t read at all, but hunch over video games. Parents and other passengers read on Kindles or skim a flotilla of email and news feeds.
I care much more about saving the lives of mothers and babies than I do about a fancy museum somewhere.
All I get to hear in the mornings are loud screams of my babies. It’s such a chaos but a new joy of life.
Promises are like crying babies in a theater, they should be carried out at once.
I’m not one of those girls that’s like, ‘I have to be married by the time I’m 35 and I have to have six babies when I’m 38.’ No, I’m just fine it’s all good.
I like babies, but not in the front row. I don’t want to sing directly to a baby.
I want babies. Lots of babies. Of course!
All my friends with babies or husbands or full time jobs are running ragged looking after everyone and everything around them, but not themselves.
So many entrepreneurs view their companies as their babies. They micromanage, and they stall.
We see very, very high rates of C-sections, Cesarean sections, in India. Lots of reasons for it, high levels of malnutrition have meant that women have very small pelvic areas often, so if they have larger babies, it’s very hard to deliver.
Babies don’t need fathers, but mothers do. Someone who is taking care of a baby needs to be taken care of.
I have had babies, so I’ve had ultrasounds and am very thankful for them.
We finally have a damn voice. We feel like actual artists. We were little babies in the beginning. Now we’re becoming big girls.
I see a wiser person than when I was younger: having babies, and passing 30, were the turning points. What women in their 40s – I am 39 – lack in gorgeousness, they make up for in wisdom. I love ageing, despite the drawbacks – thinner, drier skin.
I am an actress, a producer, a philanthropist, a wife, and above all a mommy to my beautiful babies, Leonardo and Valentino.
I think it is time for all babies to let us know who they want for president.
I can see why people keep having babies. We were looking at a school for my youngest this morning, and there were all these little boys and girls. So sweet. And then the teenagers walk past, and, my God, they’re enormous, and I bet they don’t kiss their mummies. I’m just going to force my children to remain lovely.
I was young, maybe 4, when I learned where babies came from.
Nothing more strongly arouses our disgust than cannibalism, yet we make the same impression on Buddhists and vegetarians, for we feed on babies, though not our own.
I was the kind of kid that always loved babies. I was, you know, four years old, and I would have my baby doll that I would bring with me everywhere and fake breastfeed on the beach and diaper.
Animals are great but babies are the most magical thing ever.
Babies act out when they’re hungry, cold, tired. They do this for survival.
I may get married later or may never get married. But I want babies, so I’ll have to get married. I want fat, cute babies. Every girl has to think about it at some point. For me, marriage is about family, and that’s why I find it necessary. Till then, it’s normal to have a partner and do your own thing.
In school, I was playing old men and women, babies, Russian people, and all sorts of weird parts – a lot of comedy – and that’s sort of like home to me.
How do you know someone is a grandparent? They’ve got milk stains on every shirt from burping babies. Their pants are worn out at the knees from crawling around giving pony rides. They have 2,842 pictures of the grandkids on their smart phone and not one photo of their spouse.
In giving to the March of Dimes, my fans can help support vital research and programs to help babies and their families.
I adore children, but I was never that interested in new born babies. It’s a terrible thing to have to admit, and you’re not supposed to think that way as a woman, but everyone promises it’s different when you have your own. It wasn’t for me, though.
T.V. found me. I was offered jobs. It came in handy when I started having babies. Just one night’s work, and then I could go home. I loved ‘Surprise Surprise’, but it was hard work. ‘Blind Date’ was a doddle by comparison.
If the American people – pro-choice and pro-life – cannot agree with the basic concept that the life of a baby born alive following a botched abortion should be protected, then when do the rights of these babies begin?
No element gets people telling crazy stories like mercury does. People have told me tales about pharmacists waxing floors with mercury, mothers rubbing it into babies’ skin to kill germs, and 10-year-olds coating dimes in it to make them shine, then blithely carrying them around in their pockets.
Everyone knows that by far the happiest and universally enjoyable age of man is the first. What is there about babies which makes us hug and kiss and fondle them, so that even an enemy would give them help at that age?
Women are now very comfortable to have babies into their late 30s. You can be a father in your 50s. I’m not saying it’s for everybody, and I think people have to get their own life secure before they take on the responsibility of a partner and children.
From the right, you get demagogues shouting about brown-skinned anchor babies and clamoring to deport the undocumented. From the left, you get advocacy for the oppressed but otherwise, when it comes to national civic identity, mainly silence.
The more people have studied different methods of bringing up children the more they have come to the conclusion that what good mothers and fathers instinctively feel like doing for their babies is the best after all.
