I love receiving feedback from you and am always excited to read your emails! Thank you for being there and for allowing me to share our world and knowledge with you!
Let me start off first by saying, I absolutely LOVE your blog!!! I stumbled upon it a few months back, and I’ve been in love ever since! Especially with the birth plan post & the hospital bag check list! You are ABSOLUTELY inspiring.

I am very happy that I found your blog – it is very comforting and informative 🙂

Like you, I am a huge planner. We are not going to start TT for another 9 months, but I couldn’t wait to research and learn all of the things I can be doing now to prepare mentally and physically on the most healthy way possible to be pregnant. While searching, I came across your blog and Aaaahhhh (angel sounds complete with jazz hands). I’ve found someone like me!!! 🙂 Even better you have done a lot of the hard research work and made it even easier for people like me. Thank you so much. I went back and started your blog from the beginning, so I am not yet caught up, but have made it to the birth of your beautiful daughter. (I know I’m so far behind). You are such an inspiration and thank you for all of your posts on natural chemical free products that helps a lot. I spend enough time researching a “safe” deodorant that actually works. I can’t wait to read the rest of your blog!

My name is Sherin, I’m 26 years old living in Germany. I’ve been following/reading your blog for ages. I love your style and your detail-oriented approach to everything, in particular the conception/raising of your little angel – Lexi.

It’s been a great help watching your journey unfold and since my husband and I are also thinking of TTC’ing soon, I would like to get in personal contact with you to discuss supplements, nutrition, etc. (although your blog already gives fantastic insights!). I would simply like to get to know you personally, because I have a lot of Russian friends and somehow we just seem to “click”.
We even flew to Orlando last year and I did all the Dr. Seuss rides, as you recommended. And I actually would have loved to meet up with you but since we haden’t been in touch yet and I never had the courage to publically write anything onto your blog, I dismissed the idea…
I really love your blog and appreciate all the tips and product reviews you do

I jsut discovered your blog and I have to say, you did a wonderful job! I went thru nearly everything you went thru in regards to breastfeeding. I wish I had found you sooner, I would have had a much nicer outfit to wear in the hospital 🙂

I am not sure how to comment on your blog but I just had to write to you and let you know how much I absolutely adore you.
Thank you so much for all your research you do and I really can’t believe how much information there is out there but you give me some direction- everything that I have been learning about being a parent- you endorse and do yourself.
It’s been so hard to follow the co-sleeping/attachment parenting style and you are such an inspiration.
Thank you for taking the time to share your findings and experiences of your new baby!!!!!!!!!!
You guys are the absolute BEST!!!

I want to preface this e-mail by first letting you know just how much props I give you for not only putting your private life out there on the interweb, but for being so thorough and informative when it comes to everything related to babies and pregnancy! Your blog really is godsend as it has personally help me prepare for what is to come.

I’d would first like to express how useful and informative your blog is – well done. Really glad I came across your site. Your daughter is beautiful.
Ally
Love your blog you are amazing at keeping it real and stating your opinions…. I love that. As a fairly seasoned mom expecting her third at 33 it is refreshing to see a new mom standing up for her opinions and choices.
Simone
So I stumbled across your blog for the first time via a Pinterest link last night….and never left. I seriously spent the entire night (and I mean hours) pouring through your entries.
I was enthralled with your blog more than any other I have ever read! Maybe it’s because your stories are so personal to me- I’m very into fitness/health (triathlete/competitive runner), one of my latest passions is clean organic eating, I’m photography obsessed, and last but not least my husband and I are beginning preparations TC hopefully in late 2013. I feel like I found your blog at the perfect time, and your style resonates SO well with me as I am also huge on planning and organizing. And being a perfectionist? Yup, me to a T.
Kristin
I am so impressed with your blog! I definitely wish I found it before my firstborn came in 2009!!! I thought it was also cute how you created the Gender Reveal video. 🙂
Congratulations on your nearly 6-month-old!
Gloria
Until i saw your blog i was wary of becoming pregnant and scared as shit to be a mother. Your blog makes everything seem so manageable! Unlike other pregnancy blogs, yours is not all “clouds and rainbows”- you tell it as it is! No trying to hide the nausea, pains and aches, or mothering difficulties! Its so easy to read and i love all the pictures you post!
Thanks to you, my hubbie and I are trying to conceive!
Devorah
I’ve become a follower not to long ago, my precious baby girl (my 2nd) is just a month older than yours…well I’ve seen the fun your having with the big mat from tiny love and ours just arrived today and both our girls are in love ( Emily is 2 and Abby is 6 months). thanks for sharing your great finds and the great blog.
Amy

Emilie
I wanted to compliment your blog! It’s so well organized and intriguing to read through. I am 10 weeks pregnant with my first child and it is absolutely wonderful to have a referral blog to have come across. I wanted to compliment your gorgeous hair also!! I had mine cut too short so hopefully the extra progesterone will help the length grow in faster 🙂
Alyssa
I really love your blog and all of your baby product reviews. I am about to have my second baby and was looking into some of your favorite products. I was just wondering why you love the Tiny Love Super Mat so much? You are not the only one that I have heard say that it is a must have, but by looking at it, I don’t really understand what all the hype is about. I am very interested in purchasing it though. If you would not mind telling me what you like about it, I would love to hear. Thanks! Lexi is the cutest!

Dear Elena, thank you so much for your wonderful blog! It’s full of inspiration!! Because of you we started BLW a few days ago and so far Ben, our son, and my husband and i love it! To see all of Bens facial expressions whenever he tries something new is the best! So thank you again! And by the way, your little family is adorable 🙂
Sally
I am a huge fan of your blog! I have been following for about a year. I am now 14 weeks pregnant with my first child, and I cannot tell you how many of your resources I have used. I am so grateful for all the information you provide. It has been incredibly helpful to me.
Alison
Thanks so much for all your hard work on the blog – this girl really appreciates it!
I am a HUGE fan of your blog! My husband and I are going to start trying to conceive this summer, and let me just say that your blog is a huge blessing for me! It is so informative, and such as great resource for books and items for baby!
Jennifer
I have been reading your blog for what seems like ages and can’t tell you how incredibly helpful it has been. My first daughter, Ava, was born on September 6th and we’ve since purchased many of your recommended products.
Thanks for all of the wisdom you pass along
Elizabeth
I found your blog recently and now that I am pregnant with #2 I have been going back through your archives- it’s more helpful than reading a pregnancy book!
