I stand all day. Have for a year. My legs were a little tired the first week, but after that I was fine. I shift my weight around, lean on the desk, pace, etc. I have no idea if I'm healthier or will live longer or have more sex or my hair

I did, but Ergo Depot happened to have a showroom 5 minutes away and I didn't want to order them sight unseen. Specifically, I wanted to test the amount of side-to-side sway when at its highest level. The ones we ordered were sturdy. Price

Amen. Agree 100%. (But I couldn't help busting you on the "you're going to crush your kid!!!" line!) Parents who consider these choices carefully are modeling decision-making skills that will be passed along and benefit their kids much more

Having the baby sleep with you in the bed may very well mean that you don't sleep as well because you'll be paranoid that you'll roll over onto the baby. Or worse, you'll roll over onto the baby! I sleep with my kids and enjoy the bonding

Looks great! When we had our first child, I couldn't find an online registry that I liked, so I scripted a rudimentary one up one night. It worked really well. My wife loved that she could register for intangibles like "Bring us dinner", or

Why do you have to be first to market? I too have started building this very app and still plan to finish it. There are a thousand factors that determine how your app/business progresses. Market timing is just one small one.
