"There comes a time in every new mother's life when she finds herself staring at her screaming, smelly "bundle of joy" and wishing someone had told her that her house would reek of vomit, or that she shouldn't buy the cute onesies with a thousand impossible buttons, or that she might cry more than the baby. Best-selling author Dawn Dais, mother of two tiny terrors, is convinced that there is a reason for this lack of preparedness. She believes that...

But what could possibly be left? Parents -- new, old, expectant, and grand -- of multiple children already knew the answer. Adam discovered it for himself by having two more kids,...

"A baby can be a good excuse to skip a party, but . . . goodbye alone time, hello awkward new social obligations. All parents want the same things: to balance work and home life, to raise happy kids, to never attend a baby drumming class, and to build a secret room in their home where they can hide (preferably not the bathroom).

"Ser madre es muy duro (y ser padre también; aquí no se libra nadie). Te pasas el día poniendo lavadoras y planchando y al final se te pone el brazo hiperdesarrollado como a Popeye. Cuando me siento a hablar con mis amigas sobre cine o televisión, si alguna me pregunta cuál es mi programa favorito, le respondo que el de prendas delicadas. Ya no salgo por ahí porque me caigo de sueño por las esquinas. Mi fiesta de la espuma es el baño de los...
