I’ve been a mother for just over a year now. So much has changed from the time I saw those two lines appear to this moment, as I sit typing away while Jack naps. Truthfully, there were a LOT of things I felt I was really prepared for. I read the books, I heard the

My Journey With Pregnancy and Rheumatoid Arthritis
Writing personal posts are always slightly daunting. It’s hard to know where to start or how much detail you want to get into. But when it came to today’s post on pregnancy and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), I knew it was a topic I wanted to explore. I was diagnosed with RA at a very young
