Will write for yarn.
This post is actually over at Breastfeeding Moms Unite, written for Melodie upon her request.
It was an honor to share it with her, and I hope you’ll pop on over and read it.
It concerns – you guessed it! Breastfeeding. So don’t say I didn’t warn you. But it’s also about me, and might prove interesting. Or [...]
A while back, I went to this legendary lady, Miss P, at J.C. Penney who measures and fits gals (my gals, in this case) for The Perfect Bra.
This mythical beast is one that doesn’t cause unsightly bulges, add inches to an already ridiculously large chest (why do they sell 40D’s with gel inserts???) or cause [...]
I finished my story, and posted it over on Blogher.
I’m not thrilled with it, just like everything else I do. There’s more to tell, more to sort through, more to figure out. I want to be able to tell you I am all better, but I’m not there yet.
PPD can disguise itself as normal parenting [...]
Hello. Welcome back to another exciting episode of, “What to do when you have dropped your basket.”
What is “dropping your basket”? I’m glad you asked.
Often, it is nothing more than being weepy and dysphoric, not enjoying things you once did. It can also manifest as:
1. Irritability
2. Obsessiveness / OCD. OCD can sometimes be just obsessiveness [...]
I have turned this topic around and around in my head over the last few days. And now several bloggers have beat me to the punch.
But that’s okay, because I’ve decided to take a slightly different direction with it. I want to talk about medications used to treat depression, anxiety, irritability, anger, and suicidal ideation, [...]
I was getting my boys down to sleep last night and finally broke suction on Beckett because he was draining the life out of me. He fussed and thrashed around a little, disturbing Ethan, who was already pretty much asleep.
Ethan, irritated, said, “Allright, allright, Beckett!” And, hoisting up his shirt, sighed, “Have some milk and [...]
I am asking for some personal information here, so please don’t feel pressure to comment or use any kind of real name. I would, however, greatly appreciate any of your story you feel comfortable sharing.
I think this is a topic that we don’t hear enough about, and the decision to use medication while breastfeeding [...]
It’s Fiber Friday again, and as I promised, I am about to send you down rabbit holes aplenty and I guarantee you will never change a cloth diaper again because you will be too busy clicking around the fabulous sites for eco-minded moms.
If you are new to cloth diapering in general Green Mountain Diapers is [...]
Ugh. I finally found a suitable replacement for MySpace, where some *cough* obsessional *cough* issues with jealousy were seriously cramping my style, and then I hear Facebook keeps deleting photos of breastfeeding women with their babies.
Hunh??
Oh yeah, I forgot. Breasts are the puritanical equivalent of the way HAIR is in some cultures, which I will [...]
I am constantly amazed at the things I swear I would never do…that I now do. Thankfully, those things do not include breastfeeding an eight year old, like this woman. Be warned – this one can cause some uneasy feelings, no matter how vigorous a breastfeeding defender you are.
That said, I can almost, almost understand. [...]
