infonuggets for new(ish) parents
Introductions

My name is Suzy H, and I’m based in NYC.  I’m a former corporate attorney turned fashion designer and the mother of a beautiful 20-month old girl, whom I will refer to as C, expecting my second (girl or boy).  I remember being pregnant with C, busy with school and being completely overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information out there about parenting as well as the mind-numbing number of product choices I had — and still have — to make.  I know for a fact that I wasn’t the only one!

Over the past year and a half plus, I’ve made my fair share of mistakes and have gleaned bits of really useful information here and there, and it’s my goal with this blog to share them with you.  Bjorn v. Ergo?, diaper rash issues?, educational videos?, good parenting books?, etc.  I discuss it all here.  I am by no means an expert, and God knows that I’m as much in need of advice and help as I can get sometimes, but if any bit of any of this information I’m throwing out there is helpful at all to anyone out there, lovely:  my job is done.  So, to be clear:  this blog is not about my kid, though I will mention her from time to time as an example.  This blog is about useful information presented in bite-sized (hopefully) chunks. 

A word of warning:  I am somewhat holistic/alternative in my approach to health and diet, so if that doesn’t jive with you, either skip the relevant post, or feel free to disagree with me or to provide alternative information, All I request is that you do so respectfully.  

If anyone out there with a kid is reading this blog, happy parenting!
