I'm A Mom, Now What?

My first blog about the dubious joys of being pregnant, and the less dubious joys of parenthood. If you (think you) loved every second of your pregnancy and parenting years and think everything about it is wonderful and precious, this may not be the blog for you.

About Me

WildernessBarbie: Seattle/Ballard Area, Washington, United States; My thoughts and feelings about pregnancy, becoming a parent, and growing up.
