After 9 months of pregnancy I've found myself a completely different person, with entirely different priorities. This blog is dedicated to that experience of being a new mom and exposing the down and dirty truth of it all.

Pacifier: friend or foe?

Shortly after deciding Henry was capable of breastfeeding successfully we introduced the pacifier in a moment of weakness. I say "moment of weakness" because while surely millions of parents use pacifiers, I think all will agree it comes at a price.

Our price might be that now I'm worried we have an unhealthy addiction to it. He uses it CONSTANTLY. We have them littered all over our house and its the first thing I reach for when he fusses. I will admit they work well but I dread the day, months/years from now, when I have to take them away.

Buck teeth - here we come.

Henry's pacifier of choice: Gerber Nuks
