Formula feeding guilt – Is formula feeding as good as breastfeeding?
Breastfeeding is the best way for a baby to get the nutrition they need to grow.

A Million Easy Things. Everyday. All the Time.
This has taken longer than anticipated to write, but everything takes longer now and far fewer things matter. I am currently holding a screaming miracle in my arms. She has a pacifier hanging out of her mouth like a hand-rolled cigarette, as though she weren’t ordained by God but rather by order of the Peaky Blinders. I am the proud father of said gangster, and as such would like to recount our misadventures and jot down a few reflections thus far.

Living together is good or bad
Living together, also known as cohabitation, is a living arrangement in which two people who are not married or in a civil union live together in a romantic relationship. It involves sharing a home, often including sharing expenses and household responsibilities. Couples who choose to live together may do so for various reasons, such as wanting to test their compatibility before marriage, saving money on living expenses, or simply preferring to live together without getting married. Cohabitation can take many forms, from short-term arrangements to long-term commitments, and can vary in terms of the level of commitment and intimacy involved.

Baby sleep
Not even 24 hours after writing my last article, it got harder. I’m writing this at 5:30am. I’ve been awake for 2 hours with my daughter who, until tonight, has mostly slept through the night; only waking to comfort nurse or actually eat. But at 3:30 this morning, she decided it was time to wake up. After rocking, bouncing, and pacing with her for an hour and a half, only to get a couple yawns and then some babbling, I conceded defeat and made a barrier in the bed and laid back down. But I won’t sleep again. We’re up for the day, and I have 16+ more hours until I can even THINK about sleeping again.
