There used to be only one way not to get pregnant:not having sex † You could take the plunge (or out, rather) and try “out of church before singing.” Not a good idea. Then came the first condom. Or something like that, because a pigs bladder cant really be compared with a condom. In 2017, the possib
Lubrication is your responsibility, that sounds rather punitive, doesnt it? Frankly, this statement is more against myself, but hey, take advantage of it. Smearing yourself against the radiation of the sun, I sometimes show evasive behavior in this. Why? Actually there is no reason, other than that
As you know, my father recently passed away. That means that for me life at the moment mainly revolves around my parents who are both no longer there. My mother passed away 5 years ago.

Everyone needs a helping hand every now and then; some peace to focus and concentrate on your application, some joy on that one drizzly morning full of mandatory appointments and meetings, or some strength to get up in the morning after the umpteenth broken night after you gave birth. To be able to

Make your own sparkling water or make soft drinks with the Soda Stream? I can no longer imagine this appliance out of our kitchen. We rarely buy soft drinks in the store. Not only because the amount of sugars in those drinks is bizarre, but also because we are now simply a lot cheaper by making spar
As you know by now, my weight has discovered a kind of rising line in recent years, which I was no longer able to break. Now I am not really a diet person, but I have tried everything necessary to feel more comfortable in my own skin. Without much result. Looking for a healthier lifestyle and a bett
Are the quality time moments for your family also scarce? Sometimes you really have to go out of your way to get the whole family in one place. And when youve finally parked them around that table… do you really have quality time? All too often I have the mobile unit around me in no time… Recognize
We have been aware for some time that children get too much sugar. Its just not really easy for us to leave all those sugars. For example, unfortunately there are very few packs of drinks without sugar available. In fact… many packets of drinks (such as multivitamins and the like) contain quite a bi

Proudly I look at the beautiful necklace around my neck. I got it from my sister. She once brought it back from Suriname as a souvenir and because thats where our roots are, I think its extra special. “You can have it,” she said one day, because she didnt know where to wear it. I do! My favorite col
Finally some nonsense about work and motherhood. Or at least… thats how I interpret this topic 😉 . Of course not, because it can just as easily be about the self-employed person husband than about the self-employed person mother of course. But the fact remains the same. Or ... maybe it bothers the
Tijn became known in December 2016 with his Paint on action in The Glass House of 3FM Serious Request † He then raised more than 2.5 million euros for the treatment of children in Africa with pneumonia. Now that he doesnt have long to live himself, he wants to take one last action for children who,
Hereditary diseases do not occur with us, as far as I know now. Fortunately! It doesnt guarantee the future, but its in the hands of fate and not in the DNA.
