Did you know I'm also a wine connoisseur? I make pour decisions over at the Unpolished Grape.
Breastfeeding is beautiful, natural, and normal. We will do our part in spreading the word.
Now I love a bad dress. And a mean pair of heels. I would actually rock both every day if I could. But hours after I give birth? Nah, give me a break. Literally. Actually, give me a seat because I’m tired just looking at Duchess Kate!
I’ve always been an advocate for breastfeeding….but let me be clear, I had my limits. I used to give a major side-eye to moms that breastfed for unimaginable lengths of time, like beyond a year. Ugh! I didn’t understand it. It seemed weird, unnatural, and like some strange mother-child dependency thing that just went on…
#reclaimingmytits #thebreastaurantisclosing #repossessmybreasts What happens to your breasts when you’re finished breastfeeding? What do you make of your new tatas and new LIFE?
Yep I’m still nursing a toddler. Deal with it. Before becoming a mom, I knew that I would nurse. I had girlfriends whom I considered role model mommas and they nursed their children so of course I would too. The first few weeks were tough and then there was the first time I got gummed…wow!…
20 fingers, 20 toes, twice the cries and twice the love! So you’re having twins and are pulling out your hair trying to decide what to expect! Sassy Plum asked our favorite twin moms for advice on preparing for 2 babies. Here are some common questions.
When I breastfed my babies I always covered up. I’m not as brave or body-positive as my mom friends that don’t care who sees or stares. For the most part I used a muslin blanket or nursing cover (get these discounted or FREE with coupon codes, just sign up for emails!). But which way is the best…
Mamas! We have all been there. Engorged. Pressed for time. Determined to find any place to pump milk for our babies! We will jump through hoops, break through red tape, and pump in unthinkable spaces. No matter the challenge, we will be creative and find a place to pump!
Anyone who thinks breastfeeding a baby is easy and comes naturally for every mother has no idea. It’s supposed to be a perfect, synchronized act in theory, right? Then why can it be so complicated? Because it’s an absolute lifestyle change. A game-changer. A life-changing event. The amount of time we spend prepping, talking about…
Are you bothered by breastfeeding in public?Does seeing a mom breastfeed in public make you want to pull your hair out? Does it make you itch and cringe all over? Is the act so grotesque and inappropriate that you can’t help but speak out over it? If so this post is for you! I understand…
I thought I was done with breastfeeding. No milk had come out for two weeks, and baby boy was two years old and on solids. And then I went on vacation…Then suddenly? Waterworks down below.
“Black women don’t breastfeed.” I’ve seen this phrase float around the internet over the years and it always pisses me off. My first feeling is one of great offense, because it’s usually couched in a negative and condescending tone…as if we aren’t smart enough to grasp the value and benefits of breastfeeding. “Of course we breastfeed,” I…
