Mom Rage: All the Feels

6 / 7 / 186 / 7 / 18

I am not proud of this, but it’s a fact. I suffer from #momrage. It’s a real thing. I used to be a relatively normal, albeit often anxious human. Motherhood has made me straight up crazy. My emotions are higher highs and more angry anger that I would ever thought possible in the twenty-nine years… Read More

5 / 25 / 185 / 25 / 18

Disclaimer: This post is based upon my personal experience with breastfeeding two babies. While I did struggle in ways that will be discussed below, I am not attempting to dismiss the experience of women who could not breastfeed or chose not to for whatever reason. Motherhood is hard no matter how it works out and… Read More

I Am A Crappy Wife Sometimes

5 / 23 / 185 / 23 / 18

Five years into our marriage, and I can finally admit, I am a crappy wife sometimes. Not all the time. I have my moments: carpet lines and handmade dinners have occurred on the same day, but generally there’s a combination of success and falling short on the daily around my house. I am a stay… Read More

The Identity Crisis of Motherhood

5 / 4 / 18

I really thought I knew what I was getting myself into with this whole parenting thing. Spoiler alert: I did not.

Married to Medicine: Pride, Jealousy and the Things I Have Learned

2 / 17 / 182 / 17 / 18

I met my husband during his second year of medical school. I’d been a pediatric nurse all of six weeks so together we had a laughably small amount of medical knowledge. I worked pediatric ICU for seven years throughout his medical school and residency training. Now I am entering in my second year as a… Read More

Two Under Two: Tales from The Fourth Trimester

1 / 22 / 181 / 23 / 18

I have officially been a mom of two under two for about eight weeks now. Both of my little angels are currently sleeping in their respective cribs for afternoon nap.

The Gratitude Attitude: Shifting Perspectives of Stay-At-Home Mommin’

11 / 4 / 171 / 4 / 19

I love being a stay at home mom. That does not mean I love everything about it. Especially recently, as I await the birth of my second child, I have been struggling with who I am outside of the definition of mom. I am a wife too. But what else? Where are the qualities that… Read More
