10 Signs You've Got Baby Fever

That moment when you find yourself watching the cutest baby doing something totally normal, you need to immediately check yourself for baby fever. Here are some major signs that you may have baby fever.

1. Dog vs. Baby

A dog and a baby are in the same room, but you're completely in awe of the baby while the dog does something equally cute. You might have baby fever.

2. Baby Clothes

You often wander into the baby clothes section "just because", and you may or may not have considered buying baby clothes and hoarding them until the time comes.

3. Take Your Child To Work Day

Also known as the day you pay not attention to the lesson, but instead stare at his/her cute toddler while the professor teaches.

4. Babysitting

You love babysitting because it's total mommy (or daddy!) practice.

5. Baby Voice

You've perfected your baby voice -- the one you use when 'talking" to infants. You know the one--don't pretend like you don't.

6. Baby Names

You've already got the names picked out. In fact, you have several names picked out and will narrow down the list when the time comes.

7. Vicariously Living Through Someone Expecting

When someone you know is expecting, you are with them the whole way through...on Facebook...by stalking every picture they post.

8. Like Mother, Like Baby

You see a baby that kinda looks like you, you start to wonder what your child is going to look like.

9. Mother's Instinct


While other people hand a baby back because it needs to be changed or cries, you embrace it and try to help.

10. Buying Adult Versions Of Children's' Items

You start buying yourself baby things in grown-up version like adult onesies and sippy cups because they remind you of babies.

If you have these symptoms, you've caught the fever!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
