But seriously, Babywatchers. STOP IT. It’s none of your business. Commenting on a woman’s body in general without any solicitation from the woman is not only unwanted, it’s inappropriate.

Virtually no research exists for FPIES. Food Allergy Awareness month remind me that even though he is resilient, he is still vulnerable.

I have a quote on the home screen of my phone that I put up a year ago.

This granola, just like my mom’s, is FANTASTIC. The high protein and fiber content will be a great start to your day.

I knew it was bound to happen.  

I grew up in West Texas. When I was a small child, we left the lush, rainy beauty of the Pacific Northwest it made her way down to the dust bowl and flatlands of West Texas. It was traumatic, to say the least.

The shame was overwhelming. Why was my body broken? What had I done to my baby? I began to spiral into self-loathing. Gestational diabetes felt like a failure.

I can’t promise this will cure everything that ails you, but it’s a good start to a new year if nothing else.

I didn't have even an ounce of energy to spare to process my own feelings. Everything I had went to my son.

In the spirit of fall, I'm sharing this with you. You need it. I need it. We all need it to make it through the final days of fading sunshine and early days of falling leaves. Or something.
