Preventing New Baby Jealousy Part 1
The 10 Best New Baby Books
for Children
Reading these new baby books together is one of the simplest things you can do to prevent jealousy over the new baby.
Reading books together helps in two ways:
- Builds excitement for the coming baby and
- prepares your child for the changes coming so they won’t be a shock.

A newcomer will soon be getting most of mom’s or dad’s attention. That is going to be a shock.
It’s a BIG change in routine. Read More
Admire Your Own Parenting
Most of us are our own harshest critics.
And no wonder – we struggle daily to keep our patience under the duress of our children’s inexhaustible attentions and simultaneously rail against anyone who loses patience with our dearest darlings.

Rainbow Baby and Pregnancy Loss
Guest Post by Kita Wolfe for Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month
When asked about our current pregnancy and why we call her our rainbow baby, I can’t help but wish that I could just walk away sometimes. But most of the time, I’m open and welcome to sharing a small part of how this baby came to us. A simple “we lost babies before her, she’s our rainbow after the storm!”, is usually how I leave it until they ask more questions.Â
Â
Often, I’ll run into another mother who has recently lost a pregnancy and feels comfortable with sharing that information after I share mine. It makes me want to bawl. Read More
Babywearing When the Weather Changes

Discreet Breastfeeding and Babywearing
This is what is known as discreet breastfeeding thanks to a Front Wrap Cross Carry in a Paisley Linger Ellevill wrap.
