I don't actually hate your baby! It was just a thing I did for money once.

Arguably, more people are going to see my abdomen than my ladybiz, but I'm more concerned about the latter's appearance.

He broke up with me the week before Christmas. I spent the next week holed up in bed, eating éclairs and watching Grey’s Anatomy. If I had been in a better state, I might have noticed I had missed my period.

There are nights when I’m
snuggling him before bed, and I can’t help but wonder how much time I’ll get with him.

A baby is an actual human being with all the disgusting bodily fluids, digestive issues, and wonky toenails of your average frat boy.

It’s not that heavy, but my baby has never been naked, covered in poop, hungry or bored in public!

Though I weigh every purchase carefully and do research and try to find deals, I REALLY LIKE TO BUY STUFF.

I am a stay-at-home-wife and mother. I have two master’s degrees. For the past few months or so, I've been obsessed with cups and balls.

You guys -– I KNOW that this whole getting pregnant thing, and hence, this blog, is taking forever.

Apparently people aren't naming their babies "Hillary" anymore. Lame.
