What is one thing you are passionate about (besides being a mom?)
carseats and BFing. Everyone told me my convertable car seat was a bad idea because I wouldn't have an infant carrier. I was also told I wouldn't be able to BF so I should keep all the free formula I got. Guess who is BFing and using a convert carseat? I have had two mastitis infections (one on each side within 20 days) I have raynauds on both breasts and I think LO has Upper lip tie and my nipples hurt and its hard but she is about 10 pounds at just over a month old, BFing like a champ!
Nice to meet you, Courtney!

Electronic Toys Aren't All Bad
