Recovering from Childbirth with the Making Your Postpartum Plan Course

Erin | Blunders in Babyland

Preparing for your postpartum recovery can be tricky.

The idea of “taking it easy” for…

Undercover Mama Review {2020}: Review from a Pregnant Mom

Erin | Blunders in Babyland

Finding fantastic maternity outfits isn’t always easy. While popular retailers are finally rising to the occasion, many lines are overpriced or styled…weird.  In the past, I’ve shopped at Amazon or discount retailers like Ross or Marshall’s. While it absolutely is possible to find great maternity outfits at these locations, it kind of feels like the…

The Baby Charm Stroller Organizer Review

Erin | Blunders in Babyland

As a new mom, I really struggled to fit all of my baby gear in my stroller’s limited storage compartments. Most of the time, I could slug around my diaper bag, but during mall excursions this became a pretty cumbersome task. It was just about impossible to squeeze in diapers, wipes, bottles, and other miscellaneous…

10 Romantic Valentine’s Day Date Ideas for New Parents

Erin | Blunders in Babyland

Honestly, it can be rough trying to figure out how to celebrate Valentine’s Day as a new parent.

The Ultimate Women’s Wellness Bundle Review 2020: Great Deal or Scam?

Erin | Blunders in Babyland

Your well-being matters. Women have the tendency to sacrifice their own needs for whatever they are held responsible for. For moms, it’s their babies. For working women, it’s their career.

5 Secrets for Effectively Meal Planning as a New Mom

Erin | Blunders in Babyland

When you’re a new mom, the cooking game definitely changes. Those gourmet meals you cooked for you and your husband pre-pregnancy? Gone.

I like to tell my readers that it all started with a headache. A few years ago, I had a blazing headache at work. My coworker, a gruff, no-frills kind-of-guy, insisted that I add a dab of peppermint essential oil to my pulse points. I probably looked at him like he had grown two heads,…
