Motherhood is hard.

It’s 8:40pm. and I’m sitting in bed. My baby has already woken up once since being put down ‘for the night’ at 7pm. When I was pregnant, I would listen to the advice people would give me and think to myself “I’ll be fine, I’ve read so many articles about sleep – I’m an expert!… Read More Motherhood is hard.

Newborn Must Have’s

Now that William is 9 weeks old, I feel like I have a good sense of what baby items worked well for us and what didn’t. There are a few things that we purchased that we were so excited about that have barely gotten used. The Mamaroo, for example. I was SO excited about this… Read More Newborn Must Have’s

Milk Supply Boosting Breakfast Oatmeal

When I first had William, I ate 4 dozen of the lactation cookies I shared in my ‘Meal Prepping Before Baby‘ blog post in the first week postpartum. Then I made more and ate those pretty quickly, too! My milk supply seems as if it’s pretty good so far but I’ve had trouble finding the… Read More Milk Supply Boosting Breakfast Oatmeal
