guest blogger appreciation day
I just wanted to take today’s post to say thank you again to the wonderful bloggers who guested on this site!
I had no idea, on Saturday, November 24, when I sent out that email at around 6 a.m., to a few of my parent blogger colleagues asking for a little input to keep my site […]

guest post: the calm before my stork
By Mayberry Mom
In the weeks before my first child was born I never once entertained the idea that I would have a cesarean section. Although my girl was large (nearly nine and a half pounds, as it turned out), she was not breech and therefore, in my mind, there was no reason why she couldn’t […]

guest post: nesting
By Mixed Nuts
To understand where I’m coming from, you first need to know who I am. My name is Katie. I am the 30-year-old mother of a 4 1/2-year-old son, N~, a 3-year-old son, W~, and a 21-month-old son, C~. Oh yeah, and I’m pregnant again. With another boy. Due in February.
I love watching about-to-become-first-time […]

guest post: help! my newborn is acting like a teenager!
By Mama-Om
When I was pregnant with my first child, a friend asked me, “Do you ever think about what your kid might be when they grow up? Like, what if they’re the president?”
The president? Uh… But mainly what struck me was that I had never given a single thought to what my child might be. […]

guest post: scratch, scratch… SCRATCH
By NoMasNinos
Do you hear that? That scratching noise that sounds like someone is about to peel her skin off. You don’t? I still do.
Three weeks before my son was due I developed what the professionals like to call PUPPP, short for “kill me now because I can’t take another day of this itching”. Well, not […]

guest post: the slipped halo of motherhood
In the months leading up to the birth of the first of my four children, I spent many a happy hour daydreaming about the first few days and weeks of motherhood. I saw myself, reclining in a saintly fashion, surrounded by flowers, a rosy glow upon my cheek, my figure svelte and streamlined and a […]

guest post: waiting
Waiting
By DaMomma
Advent never meant anything to me until I experienced pregnancy.
In the Christian tradition, Advent is the four-week period leading up to Christmas. It is a time when we consider impending birth, and the celebration of hope and new life. It is a time of Waiting, and great deals at the Mall.
For the first twenty-six […]

guest post: things i learned the hard way so you wouldn’t have to (seriously)
Wow. I’ve never guest blogged before. I’m flattered to have been asked. Yay me! I’m Lizzy and I blog over at the house of h. Julie’s a pretty recent addition to my blogroll, but I’m so glad to “know” her. And? I love baybeeeeees. The Internetz lurves to welcome the baybees. And Julie’s quickly moved […]

guest post: magic
When Julie invited me to be part of her “post-birth blogging team,” how could I refuse? Even if the topic, “The calm before…” rather terrified me.
See, it’s been 4+ years since that fateful day when our lives changed forever… when our delightful baby boy entered our lives. And honestly? I feel like […]
