About Me
I love helping expectant moms find out about c-sections. As a woman who had 4 c-sections in 4 years, and has met many other c-section women, I enjoy sharing my experiences with other moms facing a cesarean.
I also LOVE crafty stuff. My children and I enjoy doing creative projects together. I share some of those fun ideas on my blog.
