Welcome Chatty Moms!

Let me start by introducing myself and my interest in this site. My name is Awbrey – many of my family and friends call me “Awbs”. I am a mother of two and a wife. I teach three days a week, and in my “spare” time, love to write and talk about my kids. I also hold a strong interest in moms in the same situation as myself. I recently wrote two articles for a bridal magazine and realized that women have so many questions about EVERYTHING!

I wanted a place where we could all come together and ask those questions or just share what we are going through. There is no better teacher than those who have been where you are. And at some point, we have all been at the same place. I want this site to offer an open ear, and maybe a few words of encouragement and wisdom to women everywhere. I would ideally love to bring women of all different background and positions in life together.

I found that in all of the different stages I have gone through and am still currently going through, I often needed answers. Quick, fast, reliable answers. Often not from doctors, but from others who have been in my situation. When I was getting married, when I was pregnant, before I gave birth, after I had my first child, after my second, basically anytime something out of the ordinary happens – which seems to be often.

So this site will be dedicated to questions and answers. Hopefully we can develop a less congested way of looking through answers. I will do the "dirty" work and collect questions, suggestions, advice, etc through email and post them (without changing the wording unless it is inappropriate, in which case it will not be printed). I will basically be the mediation.

So please, email me and I will gather information and create a post just for you! If we don’t spark conversation to begin with, then I will be posting information about myself or issues that I have recently found moms to be faced with. If you have any issues you would like discussed, let me know! I look forward to meeting a whole new network of ladies! AskAwbs@gmail.com
