Creative, well-written, and specific stories about your journey toward motherhood. Maybe having a child yourself made you think about your relationship with your own mother in a new way. Maybe having a doula in the room helped you feel empowered during childbirth in a way you didn’t expect. Maybe changing your diet because of pregnancy inspired you to start cooking for yourself and you re-discovered the joy of food. Maybe dealing with postpartum UI during exercise didn’t stop you from winning a gold medal in your sport. We want stories that inspire confidence, give insight into this journey, and let others know that they’re not alone. Check out our first-person section for some good examples, and try not to pitch something we’ve already published. In addition to first-person narratives, we’re also looking for well-written and thoughtful reviews of specific prenatal and postpartum products (underwear, nursing bras, Kegel gadgets). We want to hear the good, the bad, and the ugly: What worked for you and what didn’t, and why?
