Sleepless Mom

A blog for moms

November 17, 2018

World Prematurity Day 2018

I had the privilege of attending the Los Angeles Healthy Moms, Strong Babies Luncheon last week and was able to learn more about the outstanding organization that is March of Dimes.

For those that aren’t familiar with this organization, March of Dimes leads the fight for the health of all moms and babies. “We believe that every baby deserves the best possible start. Unfortunately, not all babies get one. We are changing that.” While providing comfort and support to families in NICUs, the organization educates the public and medical professionals about best practices and life saving research. Amongst this group are women of all ages, socio-economic backgrounds and demographics, supporting moms throughout their pregnancy, even when everything doesn’t go according to plan.

World Prematurity Day 2018

Humbled and inspired, I was given the honor to speak and share my story of loss as well as listen to the stories of many other women. Seeing the support of these mothers who have also experienced loss lead me to learn that I am truly not alone.

I invite you all to learn about this organization of incredible women at http:// marchofdimes.org/ in hopes that you can become inspired as well.

About Jessica

Jessica Sleepless Mom Welcome sleepless moms! I haven’t had a full nights rest in over 2 years. Why, you ask? Because like you, juggling a toddler and a baby, working, and finding time for myself has left me sleepless, yet full of joy.

The inspiration for my blog came from tirelessly searching online for the answers new moms have, just to find out there is no right answer. My hope and vision is to create a community for moms to comment and share real life stories with one another when Google just isn’t cutting it. Whether you have specific questions or just want to comment and relate, this is your space to ask your fellow moms advice and know you’re not the only one that screws up from time to time.

I have assembled a well-rounded team that’s here to share their struggles and successes with you, as well as offer support in any way possible. This is an interactive site and we are here to cater to your mom needs. Please feel free to contact our team members with new topics you want us to tackle or even simple questions about motherhood. That’s what we are here for….
