About The Blog

This blog’s aim is to provide thoughtful commentary and musings on the more complex (or sometimes just annoying) aspects of life as a woman, mother and human. As well as to, where possible, provide critical resources and conversation around pregnancy, birth, health, postpartum wellness and other related topics. 

About the Author

This blog is written by Jennifer Taviv.

Jennifer Taviv has a degree in Reproductive Biology, Human Sexuality and Political Theory (because during the Clinton administration sex + politics really went hand in hand) and has trained as a birth and postpartum doula and life coach. She earns her keep as a writer, editor and senior marketing and communications professional.

She lives with her husband and two daughters on the Upper West Side of Manhattan where she spends most of her time munching on gluten-free cookies and doing puzzles with her kids and trying to wait out this eternal winter.

Jennifer also writes a blog more focused on the health and clinical aspects of autoimmune disease. Read that blog at http://www.healthintuition.wordpress.com.
