HINT Water Review
The average person needs 1.9 (8 glasses) of water a day. However, pregnant women need 2.3 liters (10 glasses) of water a day and breastfeeding moms need 3.1 liters (13 glasses) of water a day. That’s a lot of water. With the crazy heat we’ve had this summer I’m sure I haven’t been drinking nearly…
Things You Take for Granted Before You Have Kids
Kids are great. I really love being a mom but there are a few things I wish I would have savored before I had kids. Simple things, really. But now that I have kids I find myself reminiscing about the “old” days over some pretty silly things. So if you don’t have kids yet here…
Breastfeeding and Pumping #Medelaparty
Recently I was given the opportunity to host a Medela Party. I was thrilled to share some wonderful Medela products with my friends because Medela basically saved my breastfeeding relationship with Noah these past few weeks. When we were having so much trouble with breastfeeding we sought out and purchased many Medela products that were…
Reason Number 238975 I wish I lived near the beach.
A few hours of jumping in the waves and building castles in the sand… = a self administered nap for my non-napping child.
Get Organized with AboutOne
It’s that time of year, back to school. While my kids aren’t in school yet I see this time as an opportunity to reorganize my family’s day-to-day life. I consider myself pretty organized but there are always areas where I just can’t figure out how to get organized. For instance, my desk is almost always…
Motherlove More Milk Plus Review + Giveaway
For the first 5 weeks of Noah’s life I pumped all of his milk. And any breastfeeding mom can tell you that pumping doesn’t yield as much milk as breastfeeding. So I pumped a lot and often just to keep up with his demands. But near week 5 I noticed my supply dropping. I knew…

The World Through Noah’s Eyes
While laying on the floor playing with Noah I realized how different things seem from his perspective. So I decided to take a few pictures of what he sees in places he likes to hang out. The ceiling fan in our bedroom. This is what he sees when he goes to sleep and wakes up….
Better Cloth Diapers Review + Giveaway
We’ve been using cloth diapers on Noah now for about a month and it’s going great. When we started using cloth with Jude we did prefolds and covers but we then began to explore other options. I learned that I really do like a pocket diaper best, especially ones with snaps. I’ve tried a lot…
The baby is threatening to strike
Noah is laying down the law and threatening to go on a nursing strike. He gets so mad at my boobs. See I produce A LOT of milk AND have a forceful letdown which causes Noah to pull off and sometimes even just stop nursing. This then results in baby with gas that is…
The First Years miPump + Breastflow Bottles Review + Giveaway
Noah and I have had our fair share of breastfeeding struggles to say the least. For the first 5 weeks I pumped and bottle fed him expressed breast milk while his tongue tie issue was resolved and he slowly learned how to nurse. Now, he is a nursing pro but still take a bottle on…
