WHEN TO CHOOSE TO HEAL YOURSELF

One of the hardest things with grief, besides grieving itself, is allowing ourselves to heal. Healing may sound close to impossible at first; A betrayal, a delusion, complete absurdity while suffocating from a pain that takes over our world. It can stop time, make every little part of daily life seem like a mountain to climb. Yet it can transform wha[...]

21 BABY MUST-HAVES

Let's talk about my 21 baby must-haves because it’s pregnancy #2. This time around, I’m getting minimal baby stuff that are my babymust-haves and are a little easier on the eye. I have to admit that some baby furniture, pillows, loungers and bouncers….made my eyes and head hurt. Please note this list doesn’t include playtime options -[...]

PREGNANCY, 1ST TRIMESTER: BLESSINGS AND LITTLE DISASTERS

It was very interesting to me to learn, after downloading five pregnancy apps after finding out I was pregnant, that for some women, the first trimester is their worst. And yes, downloading apps is the first thing I did, in case I'd miss any super vital important details on the complexity of making a human. I thought to myself, "Oh come on! how can a[...]

HOW I FEEL ABOUT MY BABY WALKING

  TO ME, THERE ARE THREE GROUPS OF WALKING BABIES: The 10 months one, the 12 months one and the 16-18 months one. Here's why I call them groups: because you get different type of moms in each one of them. The ten months mom group understands and experiences chaos before any other moms. They barely had time to pop out a baby, then it's already[...]

STROLLER SHOPPING MADE EASY

I didn't realize how much time my baby would spend in the stroller but also how much time I'd be pushing it! At first, I didn't do too much research and it just gave me an insane headache when I had to figure out what was the lightest or what was compatible with a car seat and which adapters work with the model...anyway! Let's just say they definitely[...]

HOW TO TRAVEL WITH A BABY

I have lots of travelling coming up! It's not the easiest thing and can be quite intimidating with a baby. Although, when you're prepared, let go of anxiety and just go for it, it can be really enjoyable! Here are some tips for a good travelling experience. I can't believe Oliver has already been to New York twice, Southampton, Chicago, Boston, Clevel[...]

BREASTFEEDING: EVERYTHING I LEARNED

Breastfeeding was my first choice as I did my research and decided it was the best fit for my baby and I. I imagined it being really simple and saving me some time on washing and sterilizing bottles. While that's true, it was a little more challenging than I expected. If you are reading this, maybe you are mommy-to be-, already a mommy, or just curiou[...]

BRINGING BABY HOME

It was the most surreal feeling, bringing a baby home. Kyle and I and our doula Lacey left for the hospital on July 16th and we came back home with a little tiny human being. He was real. I could finally see his little face, toes and fingers. OUR HEARTS JUST EXPLODED INTO LITTLE PIECES. Oliver Kingsley 7/17/17 6lbs, 6oz 2:45pm I wrote a full[...]

Here are three things I wish someone told me to prepare before coming home from the hospital with my newborn. I learned this all through lived experiences. ⁠
⁠
👉🏼 Set up a postpartum shelf on wheels with all my healing needs- most is provided by the hospital. Having everything on deck and reachable when needed, especially during exhausting times is very helpful.⁠
⁠
👉🏼 If breastfeeding, the first thing I did is contact a lactation consultant. Every breastfeeding journey is different with each baby and sometimes can be too daunting with do’s and don’t. This gave me direction and a following game plan.⁠
⁠
👉🏼 Take really good care of my nipples and have prepped meals- healthy meals that I froze prior and coconut oil for nipples and nipple shield cups were everything while my skin got used to feeding.

Do you have anything to add to this list?⁠

I can't look at my rainbow baby ⁠
without thinking of my angel baby. ⁠
⁠
I can't think of my angel baby⁠
without thanking for our rainbow baby. ⁠
⁠
There isn't a world or heaven where a child is replaceable. 💔⁠
⁠
The more I care for Zoë, the more my heart breaks for what happened to my little Blake. Grief of a child is the most awful thing I’ve ever had to go through and that has forever changed me. Holding him, kissing his little nose, birthing him for hours and having to let him go is my biggest heartbreak that keeps on hurting. 

While I get to hold my beautiful rainbow baby, my beautiful miracle, while I observe all of her…her eyes, her nose, life through her expressions and smile…I take it all in but my heart and body can constantly feel the hole of these moments that I’ll never get to have with him. 

To anyone who’s survived such a devastating loss…my heart knows how you feel at night when you close your eyes. My arms are wrapped around you.
