<p>The time is now to enjoy, for You to enjoy and move into the life you are meant to live.  Yes, You should read into this. Time and time again, I see women who are ready for babies, and believe it is their responsibility to be married before they bring a child into this world.  They must find a suitable mate, and marry him, and start the baby making process, in that order, and for some it only to ends up in divorce.  But in recent years a new trend has started.  Educated, fully employed women have been having babies, just out of wedlock. Why you say?  Because they are educated and smart women who are not going to get married Now and/or do not feel the obligation to be married.  So this brings us back to our Now.  It is our responsibility to enjoy every moment. Don’t let anything hold you back to your own happiness.  Granted we all need to think about the responsibility it takes to be a parent, the time, the love to share, and the money.  If you are ready to walk into parenthood in a responsible and mature way, you are much further ahead than many of the folks that are married and having children.</p>
<p>There are many ways to go about this.  Artificial insemination,  or a boyfriend, it doesn’t matter.  If you are approaching it in a responsible way and raising a child that will be a productive, informed adult someday, as far as I am concerned, you are much further evolved than most of the young folks today.    I noticed this is a trend, and it may be a much healthier way to have babies then to get married.  Many women get married these days so that they can have babies, and a reason like that is a recipe for divorce.  When children grow up in a culture they have already known since birth, it precipitates a healthy emotional life.   All of our culture in households is different, even in our married families, and so children should grow up just as healthy if bringing a child into this world is approached in a mature manner.   There is definitely a benefit to have 2 parents at home, even if there is no marriage.   We all know that.  Fathers can be involved when they are aware and approve of children coming into this world, even as much as married fathers, and if they don’t live there, it is not a recipe for a bad upbringing, just adjustments in lifestyles.  Role models in that child’s life are just as important as the mother and father figure.    Remember the saying, “It takes a village…”</p>
<p>You don’t have to look far to see what an issue this is.  Pregnancy happens out of wedlock “by mistake” and then all of the sudden there is a wedding in the making.  This behavior is typically associated with the poor, the people who don’t know any better.</p>
<p>I say that the educated  people who have money do have the resources to bring a child into this life without being married.  And for them it could be a better choice for their children then to step into a marriage that will go sour and raise children.  Let’s face it, it is so important to have children for most people, and so they are now realizing that they can overlook the social norms of marriage and still enjoy parenthood.     This can create a more healthy and happy life in my opinion for those parents that would otherwise be unhappy in their marriage.</p>

<p>Would you have a child out of wedlock if you were not married to the spouse of your dreams?</p>

<p>Make sure you take the time to educate yourself because birth is the only opportunity you have to collect these lifesaving cells.<br />
You can click here <ahref="http://www.brainshark.com/viacord/kerielkin">www.brainshark.com/viacord/kerielkin</a> to watch a cord blood presentation.</p>
<p>You have 3 choices for what to do with the umbilical cord cells&#8230;to<br />
discard, to donate, or to bank it.  If you ever need the stem cells &amp; you donated or discarded it, it will cost you $30,000 to get one (if you can even get one).</p>
<p>It&#8217;s sad with science progressing everyday that someone would choose not to do this for their family/baby/siblings.  Cord blood stem cells are currently being used to treat over 70+ different diseases (ie. cancers like Leukemia, blood disorders, genetic diseases and immune system deficiencies, including <a href="http://nannymama.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/footsie.jpg"></a>diabetes, heart disease and stroke).</p>
