When I first became a mom I was the first of my friends to have a baby. I was young and I felt like I didn't have very many people around me that I could connect with. My mom found an online forum when we were looking for nursery ideas and sent me the link. By the time I had him I had connected with these moms and actually grew to rely on them. Fast forward thirteen years and two more babies … [Read more...]
