the nurses at the hospital should help you get started but here would be my advice for first time breast feeding moms: 1# Stay calm and try not to get frustrated if it doesn't seem easy at first. Take your time to get latched on properly instead of…

I would love some advice on the best way to begin breastfeeding when my LO gets here. I'm 30+3, so it isn't that far away and I'm starting to freak out. My mother didn't breastfeed me, my cousins didn't breastfeed, and none of my friends attempted t…

I think people are so far removed from the real experience from birth they either think they NEED pain killers or simply have no interest in seeing what their own body can do and what labor is really like. I watch the baby story a lot and epi births…

Miss Naked Beauty

Ok - here's my corny story!
Today I have been watching "Miss Naked Beauty." It's a reality show about a flipped Beauty Contest. The girls in it have had to banish thier body hang ups, make up, and insecurities. It sounds silly, but I find this show very empowering, and the contestants seem so liberated. I am not a make-up junkie; I don't tan or use false tan, I dont have hair extensions, fake eyelashes, nails, ect...but I can't leave the house without foundation, concealer, colour on my cheeks,… Continue

Hey ladies, just wanted to say sorry for not being on lately, I found out Friday I got funded to go back to school for Hair Styling! Not what I want to do for the rest of my life, but it's paid for, and it will help me pay for my Midwife!! Matt and I are back together again and so far everything has been great, we made a life plan together with both of our goals and I think that really helped us!! Trying to conceive will be put on hold until after the New Year and hopefully our relationship will… Continue

She and I will be leading a song, oral story and rhyme group. The principle is to model positive parenting practices for high risk families, and encourage bonding between parent and child. WOOT WOOT! It means a top up finacially, and these hours are also insurable, so I will qualify for another maternity leave within 6 months if I get enough… Continue

Maybe Baby?..

Last night, after Cailena went to bed, my husband and I retreated into the cool darkness of our porch to relax, reconnect, and play a game of scrabble. It was one of those rare perfect nights, niether of us too tired, alone together, both attentive and in good humor. We lit candles around our outdoor table so we could continue to play our board game, and check the dictionary in order to protect ourselves from each other's attempted cheats. Freddy suggested that in the next month we build a stora… Continue
