ICYMI: Most popular blog posts of the first half of 2023

In case you missed it(them), here are the blog posts on my website that viewers cared about most this year!

January: 5 easy meal train dessert ideas for bakers and non-bakers (check this out for luscious pictures of chocolate, if nothing else)

February: The Smithsonian exhibit on Black midwives you can visit from your living room (this is absolutely fascinating!)

March: How to tell a bereaved or infertile friend that you’re pregnant (I’m so grateful for the many folks who care so much about their grieving friends that they ask me this question, or look up the answer to this question)

April: Goodbye, South Bend; hello, St. Louis! (This is a really big personal update on my new job and new location – and actually, this is the very first blog post coming to you from Missouri! Read that April post for more info about what I’m up to.)

May: The ABCs of Babywearing: an internet lingo dictionary (Whenever this oldie-but-goodie ranks high in my stats, I always wonder which Facebook group used it as a reference for all the confusing acronyms on the babywearing internet; this time I know and I was able to thank them!)

June: Pregnancy Updates for Muggles (fetal development, Harry Potter edition) (This delightful guest post from my dear friend and colleague Emily Martin is a great way for any Potterhead to follow their or their loved one’s pregnancy, or for Muggles to learn about fetal development!)
