I said (on TV, to Rachael Ray, so there are a few million witnesses): If you want a bikini body, put a bikini on your body.

Silly me, I thought the darn thing took care of itself. Little did I know I was sorely mistaken and had a vagina complex.

With the help of the midwife—and immense effort on my part—Ella finally slid out into the water. But she was limp, pale. It was scary.

As a stay-at-home mom, I've made plenty of sacrifices. Where are my accolades?

I don’t think of myself as fat. Not inside, anyway.

As the mother of three teens, I'm here to tell you: You have nothing to freak out about.

My decision to bed-share with my children despite potential SIDS risks has less to do with studies, and more to do with instinct.

I want my kids to have an understanding of the truth of sex, the ins, the outs, the details no one wants to ask anyone—least of all their mom.

When it comes to your physique, your mind can actually work against you.
