Good Mood Checklist
(If this post seems a little backwards, it’s because I wrote it in late June, when I was still pregnant.) I’ve been in a funk for a few days. Some of this could be normal, very-very pregnant lady stuff. At … Continue reading

The following is a guest post from Nichi Kuechle, a Parent Coach, Childbirth Educator, Doula, and Craniosacral Therapist, and Mom. I interviewed Nichi for the podcast several weeks ago, when we talked about postpartum planning and recovery. I am not … Continue reading

Bored People Are Boring
Bored people are boring. I say this to my kids all the time when they have the nerve to use the “B” word around me. (Which, thankfully, is quite rare.) For the last 3 weeks, I am boring myself to … Continue reading
39 Weeks
