It’s been awhile since I’ve posted a Q&A post, but finally here’s another one.

This week, we’re tacking questions on Eczema, Sunscreens, Natural Sweeteners, and more.

I’ve so wanted to be able to be a resource to others and just love how the health posts have turned into a help for so many (and how I’ve been helped by so many of your comments as well!

My family has been through so much from:

• life threatening food allergies to
• autism to
• adrenal fatigue, and more.

We’ve also been through a lot financially–mainly trying to “make it” on a single income (that is well below six figures ), with a special needs child, with medical expenses and well . . . things aren’t getting cheaper now, are they?

Anyway, I’ve always had a passion to share, but it’s a lot more efficient to share on the internet than just be word of mouth.

So Whole New Mom was born.

My desire with this kind of post is to field questions on any topic (within reason ) that you might like to ask:

• whole foods
• special diets
• food allergies
• substitutions (like for egg [see my egg replacer recipe], sweeteners, etc.)
• budgeting (saving money, inflation…)
• health topics (autism, adrenal health, heavy metals,….)
• anything else (within reason, right?)  By the way, my hubby is not a fixit man (but he’s working on it) but he is kind of an expert on some things so feel free to ask away.  If it has to do with whole health in some way and I can’t answer it, maybe he can chime in .)

I can’t promise that I’ll know the answer, but I’ll try my best .

And then all of you can just chime in the comments section and we can all help each other out.

So–ready?  Set?  Let’s go!

(Oh–and you can e-mail your questions to me at wholenewmom {at} gmail {dot} com.   Just put “Whole New Mom Answers Your Questions” or “WNM Answers” in the Subject area so it catches my eye more quickly!)
