...finding perfection in imperfection daily.
Last week things got kinda heavy on this normally light-hearted blog when I shared my pregnancy journal of the baby I lost at 9 weeks. Back when I was struggling with my loss I remember wishing more had been written about the anxiety and mixed emotions involved with deciding to try again. I wish I could offer more to the Mommy Friend facing such […]
What better way to capture the magic of pregnancy than with beautiful maternity photography. Any amount of research on maternity photography will lead you to the nakey preggo pic, a beautiful and artistic statement about the wonder that is pregnancy. While these typically black and white pictures may range from sweet to sexy, they are almost always really […]

[Image credit] I gave birth to Boy Wonder naturally and I’m here to tell you crowning isn’t called “the ring of fire” for nothing. After my tour of delivery duty I jokingly told Big Daddy P I deserved something shiny. Childbirth is seriously hard work but are moms deserving of a “push present” for the […]
[Image credit] I gave away the baby stuff, every last trace of it. It’s like I never had a baby (or two). Little BooBoo is nearly 3 years old and moving into the glorious and bittersweet age of self-sufficiency. I no longer have to carry a 50 pound diaper bag wherever I go, I’m back to […]
[Image credit] I happen to believe the pregnant belly is one of those things that is just so adorable I have to grit my teeth, hard. I’m guessing you agree. But what about the bare baby bump? Equally adorable or just plain tacky? I posted an article on another website with a picture of a […]
[Image credit] I just broke up with Gisele. Supermodel Gisele Bundchen and I have been on the rocks for a while. Sure, maybe you haven’t read about our tumultuous relationship in Us Weekly, but I’m taking to Mommyfriend to bring you the exclusive. Perfect Gisele gave birth to a perfect baby boy with her perfect […]
Pretty much everyone I ever met is pregnant right now and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I admitted my personal Pregnancy Addiction last week and I was really relieved to learn I wasn’t alone. You just saved me thousands in therapy, whew! Since I’ve got this handy little blog which is just great for broadcasting […]
[Image:newbiemommy.com] Since I am obviously not a licensed psychiatrist, I am the last Mommy Friend who should be dishing out psychiatric diagnosis of any kind. Self-diagnosis however, is a whole different ball game I have been practicing for years. I have decided I suffer from Pregnancy Addiction, if there even is such a thing. So […]
[Image:charhadas.com] If you’re expecting a baby, a babymoon is an idea well worth considering. Like a honeymoon, a babymoon is an opportunity to get out of town and enjoy your partner and kids (if you already have them) before you welcome your newest addition. Since traveling with a newborn is about as fun as a […]
