I believe we all end up a little stronger when we share our stories about this hardest—and best—journey of life called motherhood. Here you’ll find my thoughts, experiences and interviews with experts to help us all muddle through these crazy beautiful days.
I’m certain I’m going to annoy people by writing this; and if you’re one of those people… I’m very, very not sorry. Because I know there are other women out there who are feeling, or have felt, this same way. My body has changed. This is a very recent thing. I somehow made it through …

Well isn’t this some -ish. Have you heard the story about how a super-popular-on-Instagram, grown-ass woman (and mother of four) opened up an Instagram account for the sole purpose of talking crap about other women? She said all the trolling on her account got to her. That she needed to try to convince people to …
So I missed my son’s Veterans’ Day reception this week. In fact, I’m writing this right after I got a text from a friend with video of the event. The sweetest little voices singing the sweetest little patriotic songs arranged in the sweetest little line across the stage. And me, definitely not there. One would …
So here’s the deal. When you’re a parent, about 40% of the “nighttime routine” is magical. The rest is pull-out-your-hair, holy crap why won’t you listen to me, NO I’M SERIOUS YOU NEED TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH LIKE ***NOW*** frustrating.

It’s the job that makes you feel like you’ve lost your mind… but that you’ve also found your calling. It’s the job that makes you melt to the floor in frustration… then cracks you up the next instant. It’s the job that makes you lose sleep, but when they’re lying right next to you, you’ve …
This is not an exaggeration: 30% of my closet is comprised of t-shirts and other super simple tops. There is nothing I love more than a classic tee with great-fitting denim. It’s low key chic. But sometimes, that look can get a little boring. And that’s when we need some help. Enter–my go-to accessories to …
Is there any better feeling in motherhood than knowing you’re not alone? I mean, honestly, this job can drive a girl nuts… It’s hard, it’s repetitive, 9 days out of 10 you’re covered in someone else’s poop or puke… But seriously–aside from the smell of baby heads, which may be the actual best thing in the …

It’s not the loveliest thing to say, but if a mom and you’re being honest with yourself you’ve probably thought this a time or two as well. I kind of hate finding “mom friends.” “MOM FRIENDS.” EVEN THE PHRASE IS MILDLY ANNOYING… Like, why do we have to find a whole new set of friends …
Okay, ya pervs… I was using a little artistic license in the title, but it’s kinda true! In this week’s episode of 30 Something with Sonni, I talk with Totum Women founder Erin Erenberg about launching a company that launched the cookie that helps nursing moms everywhere make more milk. I mean, yes, it’s possible …

One of the most accurate ways a parent can measure whether her household is officially back to school is by the first Catching of the Bug. And by Bug, I mean stomach-devouring, vomit-inducing, rapidly-spreading virus. So yes, if you’re wondering, we are most definitely “back to school” over here. Just me. In bed. Not puking, …
