(NAPSI)-Approximately 4 million families in the United States welcome a new bundle of joy into their homes each year, according to statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau.

These newborns will bring their parents a bundle of questions and a bundle of expenses, and possibly prompt some research into new ways to bundle the family's communication needs.

Fortunately for these millions of new parents, there are plenty of communication bundles available that will help simplify a hectic home life as well as offer economical pricing and, in many cases, the simplicity of one bill.


Some are even designed specifically with new parents in mind. For example, a bundle from Embarq includes home phone service, high-speed Internet and Dish Network satellite TV.

Home phone service can help ease the worry that comes with a new baby. In emergencies, a corded home phone, which is a phone that has a handset connected to the base of the phone by a cord, is the most reliable because it can maintain power for hours after the electricity goes out.

Home phones are also the most reliable if parents ever need to call 911 for an emergency because calls from home phones can be traced to an exact location, unlike some wireless calls.

New parents will need to learn a lot, and with high-speed Internet service, they will have a consistently fast broadband connection that will give them quick access to information the next time they are wondering how to get their baby to sleep through the night or how to remove spit from their favorite silk blouse.

Plus, with high-speed Internet service, parents can quickly upload and e-mail pictures of their new baby to friends and family so that they will never miss those special moments.

When those valuable moments come when a newborn finally falls asleep, new parents will appreciate having Dish Network satellite TV.

With DishDVR Advantage, moms can record up to 100 hours of their favorite shows and watch them whenever they want. They can also introduce their new babies to BabyFirst TV.

BabyFirst TV, available on Dish, is the nation's first and only network for babies and toddlers. It has enriching and delightful content for children 6 months to 3 years. It's commercial free and includes on-screen subtitles to help parents foster baby's development.

With bundled services, new parents can have their communications needs taken care of, which means they will have more time to focus on their new bundle.

They will also have the added bonus of knowing that for as long as they have their high-speed Internet service, their price will never go up.

This means that from the moment their baby enters the world to the moment he or she goes off to college, there could be at least one thing that will stay the same.
