Miles of Motherhood

By Rebekah Clayton

I share my stories of motherhood from sleepless colicky nights to breast-feeding to pregnancy loss and healing. Sometimes I chat with other moms to show you options for navigating tricky parenthood situations. While I always share my heart, I want to encourage you to do what feels safe and advocate for yourself and your family.
