Taiwan pop star Jay Chou speaks
during an interview Thursday in Taipei, Taiwan. Chou released "Wow," his 11th
Mandarin album, on Nov. 11, and 2011 marks his 11th year in show
business. "I've made a lot of more sophisticated tracks in the last 10
albums. There were a lot of songs that adults love. The 11th album is
more for the kids," Cho said.
Enjoy the food! Contrary to
what you may hear, most babies can tolerate mom eating
and drinking a variety of foods without getting gassy or
fussy. They may even enjoy the variety of tastes that
they get in the breast milk. So enjoy… but make sure you
don't just eat the sweets. Mommies need energy from
good, healthy food as well.

County Department of Public Health, 217-735-2317, ext.
