In our relationships, there’s a lot of things we tend to not ask, just so we don’t stir the pot. 

But covid has taught us that it’s imperative to ask awkward questions.

The word I pick is a word that I will call on to keep me grounded and focused.

I always think of the new year with such newness. There is always a push to make changes and to be a new you! 

What do airports and viruses have to do with becoming a parent?

Here’s something funny that both new motherhood and a pandemic have in common: It’s easy to lose track of what day it is. 

Times have been so heavy and hard and there are days I feel like I can’t do any of it. There are days when I don’t want to do any of it. And if I’m being honest, I have imagined hiding and crying under my blanket, with the hope that my kids won’t find me. 

Earlier this summer, I had to make a really hard decision. I decided to let go of my Happy With Baby office space.

Sheltering in place during a pandemic weirdly has a lot in common with having a new baby at home.  

Right now, the present moment is so challenging for so many of us.  

There’s no one right way to handle this. It really depends on a person’s situation. Some clients prefer to pay out-of-pocket. Some prefer to use insurance. And right now, with so many being furloughed or losing their job altogether due to the coronavirus pandemic, the need to rely on insurance due to financial uncertainty is more important than ever.  

These are unprecedented times, friends. (So unprecedented that I’m getting sick of the word!) So, if you’re feeling anxious, stressed, unsure, lonely or scared right now due to the COVID-19 pandemic….it’s completely justified.
