Who are the Boston Baby Mamas? We are an ever growing group of 30-something first time moms who use this blog as an outlet to share our stories, experiences and motherly advice to other new moms.I, Mama J, started this blog when I was 5 months pregnant last year with my daughter and realized I had no clue what to register for. I created a 17 page questionnaire for 12 close girlfriends who had recently had their first child. It started by asking them all about what products to register for (what do I really need, and what do they say you need but you really don't), but then I realized I wanted to know more. I wanted to know what the books didn't tell you...the dirty details about the birth...is motherhood all it is cracked up to be...what really happens to your body during and after pregnancy...how has your life really changed?
Thankfully I have some crazy honest and hilarious friends that were more than willing to share their words of advice and real life experiences with me. I was so intrigued by what they had to say, I figured there were other soon-to-be Mamas out there that would love to hear it too...and so Boston Baby Mama was born (pun intended)!
No topic is sacred between our Mamas (see my Haikus about what my boobs current look like), and we are always looking for new subject matter. Do you have a baby food recipe to share (or an adult one for Mamas-on-the-go)? Did you take the peanut out to eat at a fancy restaurant and have a great experience (or a bad one is even better -ha!)? Did your baby do something hilarious you need to share with us? We like the dirty stuff too - tips to spice up your sex life? what is happening to your lady land? Everything is kosher here!
My hopes is that this will become an open forum for not only Boston-area Mamas, but Mamas all over the country. So please tell your friends about us!
