Wishing you a wild heart

To me, this is one of the greatest challenges of motherhood- to feel and allow all of the conflicting emotions as we love our little ones. Wishing you a wild heart ♥️

No Easy Choices

8/17/2020

I can't tell you how many conversations I've had about how hard it is to make decisions in this covid-19 world. There are so many factors. So much (and so little) research. So much news. So many contradictory studies. So much advice from well-meaning (and maybe some not-so-well-meaning) people in our lives. 

I have friends whose kids haven't missed a day of daycare this year and others who have not been anywhere except their homes and the outdoors since mid-March.

Some of us can't imagine doing this one more day. Others have settled into a rhythm that works for their family. I have those same two thoughts sometimes within 5 minutes. ​

I wasn't listened to

8/10/2020

This week, Robyn Gordon shares her reflection to a phrase we hear way too often from moms in our circles: "I wasn't listened to." 

We have too many stories of our intuition being disregarded, our concerns being overlooked, and our judgments questioned by care providers who should be supporting us through the challenges of fertility, pregnancy, birth, and life with our children. 
​

This week, we hope you'll feel empowered to trust yourself and choose care providers who listen and support you. This is especially important for your OBs, midwives, and pediatricians, but also extends to those caring for you and your children on a daily basis. It's never too late to make a shift - one mom in this community changed providers at 38 weeks pregnant! We'd love to hear your stories, too.  ​

Sleep & Rest

8/3/2020

This week we’ll explore how to get sleep and rest (they are different! Read on for more!). This continues to be a challenging area in my life between work, kids, and everything else, but I notice that when I am able to prioritize giving my body and mind a break it makes all the difference. I have more patience for Aiden's 2-year-old-ness, more energy to share Caroline, and more kindness toward myself. 
I hope you’ll take the time to read these wise words from Robyn Gordon about prioritizing sleep and rest. 
We'd also love to hear how you make time for sleep & rest during pregnancy, early days with a newborn, and well into years of parenting.
