Expect A Lot More Posts In the “Babies & Kids” Section: I’m Pregnant!

Since my posting has been admittedly spotty for the last few months, I figure I should share the reason why: I’m pregnant. While that’s not really a reason in itself, it was the morning sickness in the beginning that made it nearly impossible to look at a screen for too long. I’m not going to share details, so I’ll just say that I’m feeling much, much better now that I’m four months along.

While I’d like to keep this blog from becoming completely baby-centric, there will be more baby- and child-related posts coming through. It’s what’s on my mind, so it’s what I’m going to write about. Of course, it’s not the only thing on my mind, so don’t fear if you’re less than enamored with the idea of baby products.

While I may have babies on the brain, it’s made me even more particular about what I put in and on my body. I’m also thinking more about the kind of world we’re living in and what doing my part requires. My thinking has begun to shift in all the stereotypical, predictable ways that parents talk about, and I couldn’t be happier. Bringing a new little person into the world is a great reminder about why I strive to make the best decisions I can, and it’s really making me want to be a better person. (See? Stereotypical.) I couldn’t be happier about the changes in my life right now (well, the weight gain isn’t all that exciting) and I hope that by sharing some of what I’m thinking here it will only enrich my goal with the site, which is to share every resource I have about living sustainably with the world at large.

Thanks for continuing to read the site for what has almost been three years, I’m excited to continue this journey together!

Congratulations! As you know, there’s a lot of doubt surrounding which methods/products are truly sustainable and which are just green washing. Check out our myth-busting video “What’s Your Big Green Lie?!” which gives a taste of the widespread ignorance of green issues including cloth VS disposable diapers at http://www.biggreenlies.com. Thanks!
