Sleeping through the night. It’s the ultimate goal of the early parenting years, the Holy Grail of baby experts. The road to a full nights’ sleep is a mountain you climb, armed with swaddling blankets, pacifiers, and coffee, until at last you reach the top and get to experience an uninterrupted REM cycle. And then you [...]

Don’t you hate women who look gorgeous postpartum? Okay, maybe hate is the wrong word. I don’t hate you. Really. I envy you. Actually, I might hate you. Especially if you claim that some simple activity, like running after your toddler, breastfeeding, or cleaning house “makes the weight melt right off.” First of all, if [...]

More specifically, have you changed him into a cloth diaper lately? Last Saturday, 61 babies had their diapers changed — into cloth diapers — all at the same time. That’s 61 babies in Atlanta. The worldwide numbers haven’t come in yet, but since there were over 300 locations, I’m guessing it was, well, a lot. [...]

Last year, I helped organize the Great Cloth Diaper Change event. I couldn’t participate, since I didn’t have a baby in diapers, but I had to be involved somehow. So I helped with some of the administrative stuff, including finding a location for the event. And I have to say, making those phone calls was [...]

NAK. It’s an acronym I see a lot on natural parenting forums. It stands for “Nursing At Keyboard.” In other words, multitasking. Nursing while typing, and possibly also eating lunch, chatting on Facebook, and doing an art project with your older kid. Getting stuff done. Because that’s how moms roll. It makes sense, right? Especially [...]
April 16th, 2012 lcbaker There are a lot of lists out there of things not to say to specific types of parents. But there are quite a few things that people commonly say that you should never say to any parent. Because we’re all in the same boat here. I should give a disclaimer: this isn’t directed toward anyone [...]

I have a confession to make. I like pizza. It’s not healthy, and it’s not (usually) organic. But it’s easy. And I like easy, because I am not good at cooking. Pizza is definitely not something I would want to eat every day. But on the weekends, or after a day when I spent too [...]

Today is my birthday. So naturally, last night my husband asked me what I wanted for my birthday. (It truly doesn’t bother me that he asks me this at 10 pm the night before. We never do anything for each other’s birthdays, and neither of us cares. I always come up with great ideas for [...]
April 11th, 2012 lcbaker Yesterday my daughter and I were going through her old clothes so we can stop storing them because I’m sick of storing them. And our house has no storage space. So we were sorting them into clothes to donate, clothes to consign, and just a handful of clothes to keep in case we have another [...]
April 2nd, 2012 lcbaker Congratulations to Maria D, who won the five free lunches from Bees Knees Organics! I am so excited to have hosted this giveaway…and I have a lot more coming. But for now, this week is spring break, which means my daughter is not in preschool, which means I won’t have much time in front of [...]
