From Pregnant to Parent
Hi there, Baby’s First Year readers! I wanted to quickly introduce myself.
I’ve been writing over on the Being Pregnant blog for a few months now, but seeing that I am no longer pregnant, it is time for me to leap over to this new venture.
My husband and I welcomed our little boy, Cullen, on October 21st, 2011. Hard to believe he is already 12 days old!
In twelve days of parenting I have already learned the following things:
- If you change a diaper, it will immediately be pooped in.
- If your pour milk on your cereal, the baby will wake up.
- You can learn to master any task using just one hand.
- And perhaps most importantly, every minute of it is worth it when you see your baby smile for the first time.
Thanks for letting me share my journey with you over here on Baby’s First Year!



Congratulations on your new little one! That is so true about the diapers, and about doing anything one-handed (including blogging!).

Happy to follow you over here now (I stalk your blog too). Thanks for sharing your pregnancy and now parenting experiences. You’re an inspiration!
congratulations! yes, it is very true about learning to use just one hand. i remember having to breastfeed while we were out to eat. i was eating a hamburger with one hand while breastfeeding. wow! the things you do when having to breastfeed.. little tip, sleep while you can and the boppy is a godsent if you dont have one. i used the thing religiously and will with my 2nd baby girl.
Yay! I can’t wait to read all about your wonderful journey
