Denise Gershwin, a certified nurse-midwife, has worked in obstetrics for over 10 years and lives outside San Diego with her husband and young son, Benjamin. These days, she enjoys reading nursery rhymes and cloth books, singing lullabies and the ABCs, attending playgroup and seeing mommy friends and their kids, long walks with the stroller, and quick dinners with the husband whenever possible. Before the baby, her interests included sailing, hiking, traveling, reading, yoga, coffee dates with friends, and long dinners with the husband. She likes her new life better, thank you.
