Breastfeeding & Sleep: Yes, You Can Have Both!
Many expectant moms fear that if they choose to breastfeed their baby, then that means they won’t see a decent night’s sleep for a few years. This is simply not true! Yes, it’s true that babies enjoy eating and sleeping, and that they often go hand-in-hand: baby nurses, then baby sleeps.

The Mommy Wrap was definitely inspired by motherhood. I would have never thought up this idea if my sweet little babies hadn’t suffered from colic.

My Journey through Colic, GERD, and Acid Reflux
Colic, GERD, and Acid Reflux. The words you dread hearing when you have a newborn. You know how horrible heartburn, acid reflux from a greasy meal, and a tummy ache feel yourself? Imagine what your baby feels when her underdevelopment organs aren’t functioning properly. It’s the worst feeling in the world hearing your baby suffer in pain. All you can do is try to soothe. The blood curdling screams and piercing cries still make me cringe. I’m not lying when I say that I suffer from PTCD (Post Traumatic Colic Disorder). I still immediately panic inside when I hear those …
