When momversation.com producers started looking for new competent moms who have it all figured it out, it was just a matter of time before they landed in the center of the universe for all things parenting  a.k.a. www.diapermonologues.com. And who am I to turn down the opportunity to further publicly embarrass myself ? Exactly.

I’ve been following momversation.com since day one and I’ve been reading probably 90% of their existing contributers for years. It is all a bit surreal… I keep checking my inbox and re-reading the emails confirming that yes, I am indeed one of the contributors for the New Momversation (mothers of kids under the age of two).

Without further ado – I present you myself and at least twice as awesome Liza Sinclaireand and Jill Simonian kicking off with our first video – “What Are Your Must-Have Products For New Moms?”

P.S. I don’t really remember recording this, because I wasn’t nervous at all, but the chick totally looks like me. Also? It’s true – I wouldn’t have kids if ice-packs and wipes didn’t exist (once again if you know my mother, please do not translate this to her…)

    God. I fall a little bit more in love with your voice every time I hear it.

    Congrats. You’re a natural internet superstar mom!

    Awesome!!!! You know, I’ve never heard your voice before. I’m loving your accent :-) I guess it just didn’t occur to me that you would have one HAHAHA.

    And just a note, not that all people have to use clothe diapers, but the habit of flushing the “poops” (sorry TMI) made the transition to disposables that much easier to deal with. No Diaper Genie needed ;D

    I love that you said icepack, where it’s almost free and the other moms want to go out and buy something for their child. This is really cool!

    A swing. A cheap, creaky consignment store swing. And a moby wrap. I need my arms and for my daughter to be happy. Everyone wins.

    • I always thought Moby Wraps looked cool, just very intimidating to put on, but I do carry Liam in a Bjorn a lot. And yes a swing is a must for all new moms!

    Way to go man! You looked super cute and it was all natural. You didn’t look nervous at all. I laughed out loud at ice pack. Of course. We should get Leila a monogrammed one. So you guys can keep up with the Baby Joneses.

    Very proud of you!

    Loved it! Way to go! At what point should we all be asking for your autograph?

    It’s true what you said about baby wipes. Seriously, what would we do without them?
