Dear Small People in My Bed; Mamma Loves
Kids sleep in the most amazing positions. I love snuggling with my boys when they sneak into my bed in the early morning, but I don’t love having my son’s foot pushing into my kidney as some of us doze off. This mom shares my pain. She’s crafted some important rules for the little ones who like to sneak into her bed. The most important one is, “Humans lie parallel to each other in bed.” My boys haven’t mastered that one yet.

Risa Green managed to have a child just like her, which is both wonderful and difficult when she sees her not-so-great qualities in her son.“My son, while a sweet, warm, wonderful kid, somehow managed to inherit every single quality of mine that I have always regretted having. He’s overly cautious. He’s a homebody. He’s a stickler for routine, and uncomfortable in new situations. He doesn’t deal well with change. Fun stuff, especially in a 4-year-old.”

Familiar Territory; Dooce.com 
Heather Armstrong has an uber-successful blog, and she just gave birth to her second child, Marlo. Her life sounds perfect, but cracks are starting to appear. After the birth of her first daughter, Heather struggled with postpartum depression and ultimately checked into a hospital to get help. Of course, she blogged about the experience and recently wrote a book about it, too. A few days after Marlo’s birth, she started having panic attacks. Heather and her husband immediately sought help. Now, she’s under a doctor’s care and feeling better. It’s incredibly brave of Heather to share her postpartum struggles, and we’re all better for it.
