Okay, here’s the deal: Get enough sleep or sleep without waking up again. It’s your choice.
A British study released on Monday said people who do not get enough sleep are more than twice as likely to die of heart disease.
Although the reasons are unclear, researchers said lack of sleep appeared to be linked to increased blood pressure, which is known to raise the risk of heart attacks and stroke.
A 17-year analysis of 10,000 government workers showed those who cut their sleeping from seven hours a night to five or less faced a 1.7-fold increased risk in mortality from ...

How Not to Vomit In Your First Trimester

Posted by Lara as Family Features, Family Life, Health Features
I am ten weeks pregnant and I count the days until the first trimester is over (14 days, yipee). I dont remember ever feeling this sick with my eldest (now a spirited 5 year-old) nor my second (the sweetest 2 year-old boy in the universe).

Pack it well!
I’ve had my fair share of local and international travels. Everytime I “hit the road” I am always brought to “hit the wall” when the time comes to pack. I just couldn’t fit what I need to bring in a small suitcase. Really! My solution? Have the wife do the packing for me. I tell [...] Family Life
