Back2Blogging -- A Title I'm Proud Of

I'm taking part in the "Back to Blogging" events hosted by the SITS girls in an effort to get back into the swing of things all the craziness of summer.

It's day TWO, but if you're interest in participating, there's plenty of time to get involved. Learn how by clicking here. The event is sponsored by Standards of Excellence, Westar Kitchen and Bath, and Florida Builder Appliances!

Out assignment today was to repost a blog post that had a title I was proud of. This was kinda hard 'cause I dont really think of my titles too much but then...

For Day 3 I chose my post "The World Of Arguing Moms... Why Do We Do It?"
I first posted this back in June. I was (& still am!) so annoyed by all the fighting and stupid arguments going on on Twitter.

We fight about bottle or breast, disposable or cloth diapers, medical or natural birth, crib or co-sleeping...

all the back & forth and the "this way is better" type conversations are getting so old. Why can't we just all accept that we all parent differently, that some things are better for other parents then they are for us.
It's just a strange thing that we do to each other. We should just be supporting each other in this crazy mommy world.

Back2Blogging - I Wish You Read It

Out assignment today was to repost a blog post I wish more people read & why.

I choose "Hard Times of Post Partum"
Post Partum is a very sensitive subject and for some reason not a lot of women want to admit they have it. With my first daughter, Makenna, I didn't do anything about it. I never talked to anyone about it... I just dealt with it.

When Kendall was about 2 weeks old I knew PPD set in once again. This time around I was not going to deal with it on my own. I was taking it out on Makenna and eventually I was taking it out on the hubby and sometimes Kendall.
I spoke to my doctor about it and she put me on Zoloft. I thank God every day that she put me on it. I knew I couldn't do it on my own and it's helped 100%. I'm a completely different person now. Not a "different" person... just ME again. I was not me once Kendall was born and the on set of taking care of two kids, a house and being a wife finally set it.

I think more people should have read my post because maybe they could relate and not be so afraid of PPD themselves. Maybe then they will have the courage to talk to someone. Maybe she will see that someone else out there felt the same way as she does.

Back2Blogging -- Back to the Beginning

I'm taking part in the "Back to Blogging" events hosted by the SITS girls in an effort to get back into the swing of things all the craziness of summer.

Today is the first day, so if you're interest in participating, there's plenty of time to get involved. Learn how by clicking here. The event is sponsored by Standards of Excellence, Westar Kitchen and Bath, and Florida Builder Appliances!

Our assignment today was to repost our VERY FIRST blog post, which I titled "My First Post" So here goes! Join in the week of fun with me!


Wow, so here we go, my first post here at Double Duty Mommy! How scary but liberating at the same time.

I've been wanting to create a page like this for some time now. I used to have my very own website before I had my daughter (from 2002-2004) but then of course things got busy after her and I just stopped updating all together and dropped my page from this wild world of the internet.

So to say in the least I'm glad I'm back and I'm hoping I can stick to this.

Yes, I kept it short and simple! :) Now I know there was so much more I could have written but I was just starting out and I just wanted to blog without thinking about what I really wanted to say at that point!
