An afternoon of spa escape is heaven for most moms. Bringing baby along sounds interesting, but not the least bit relaxing. Unless, you're going to the
Thermes de Spa in Belgium and its L'Institut Maman-Bébé in Belgium.

All of us at Sugar are attached to our BlackBerrys — they keep us on top of the news, and your comments, day and night. But, as
lilsugar mentioned the other day, unplugging from the office is important.

Even those with expanding tummies like to tie one on once in a while. Since babies-to-be and booze don't mix, expectant mommies can now reach for a mocktail. Serving up over one hundred of nutritional libations for moms in the making,

L'eau de Mama? The scents of motherhood — dirty diapers, spit-up and spilled milk — can overshadow the woman wearing them.
A dab of scented oil by
I am Danica Aromatics ($29) will freshen a mom up.

We are kicking off
Belly Worship, our celebration of moms (soon-to-be and current!). So take advantage of this chance to win a relaxing, solo day at the spa to pamper yourself with $450 worth of treatments on us!

A friend of mine was walking down the street the other day pushing her tot in a stroller. As she ambled along, she made a call to her mum on her cell phone. A stranger walking alongside her caught her off guard when she blatantly said, "Get off your phone and talk to that baby!"

As it seems we are entering into another baby boom, toy makers and stroller manufacturers aren't the only ones trying to make a buck.

Every Wednesday night they offer "Wine and Whiners" from 4 – 7 p.m.
Nicole Richie certainly isn't leading the simple life. The new mama who is famous for being famous has been out on the town since she brought lil Harlow home from the hospital. According to
US Magazine, she was recently sighted at Teddy's nightclub in Los Angeles.

Brushing your teeth can be a task once you have a baby, so finding time to put on a lil make-up is almost impossible. But, one relatively new line of make-up was specifically developed for moms in a pinch.
Debra Rubin-Roberts, an award-winning makeup artist who had worked with Nars, Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier, created
Mommy Makeup out of necessity after the birth of her daughter.
