The Beauty Of It All...

in , , by Linda B Hurd, December 10, 2017
This weekend has truly been enlightening. On Saturday afternoon I attended my very first sip and paint. I spent a few hours that were well deserved out of my place and without my baby for the very first time in 6 weeks. I made sure my husband had a few bags of breastmilk ready for the baby before I headed out. I was a bit nervous being that it was my first time leaving my baby with my husband while I head out too.



We all have possibly felt the urge while shopping to treat ourselves to a little something nice. I know I have and can honestly say it with a grin. But when does treating yourself to something nice conflicts with your current financial situation? Believe it or not, there are people who will charge their credit card to the max or even their debit card to just feel and look like they are living a life of financial comfort, but are suffering to make rent or mortgage on a monthly basis.

My Breastfeeding Experience & Tips

in , , , by Linda B Hurd, December 07, 2017
My breastfeeding experience began the same day that I gave birth to my son, October 29th, 2017. I started off feeling discouraged. I didn't know anything about producing colostrum. At the hospital, I delivered at their lactation specialists were amazing. They didn't pressure me into breastfeeding my newborn and they were very hands-on and supportive in my decision to breastfeed. 


After I gave birth to my first child life as a mother really started to hit me hard. I was no longer working due to me not having any close family members near me that I can trust to watch my child so I can have the option to return back to work. I was a loner too. 

Going to work or just heading out the door and seeing other humans and interacting with them was one of the many highlights of my day. Life has changed for me and I embraced it all along with motherhood. I just wanted to share a few things that a lot of women won't tell you about becoming a stay at home mother for the very first time.
