It’s Time For Working Moms To Put Themselves First

June 29, 2020 by Kate Christie

My kids are noisy. I mean - noisy. Before full-scale isolation, I could at least get some ‘downtime’ when they went off with their friends, or to school, or work, or university, or to their dad’s place. But with isolation, the rules have changed, and we are all once again living on top of each other. It kind of made sense for my kids to be all over me when they were 4, 3, and … [Read more...] about It’s Time For Working Moms To Put Themselves First

This month, I can feel the shift.

June 8, 2020 by Christine Michel Carter

Whew. This is a hard one to write. I’m a Black mom, and it feels like last week was the culmination of what my ancestors and colleagues have been pursuing for over 200 years: the right to be heard. The right to be seen as equal. The right to social justice. White privilege in motherhood looks like being three times more likely to survive childbirth, not worrying your … [Read more...] about This month, I can feel the shift.

The WFHWK Life: The Down and Dirty of Working Mom Survival

May 5, 2020 by Laura Scalone

I started a new job in February. Correction: I started TWO new jobs in February. The first one was a foot in the door. It didn’t pay enough to cover my bills, so I took the second job to supplement. Anyone can tell you that two jobs are more than enough for a single human to handle. I also run Elle Jay at Home, a blog about comfort food for moms. But my hours shifted to 7 am … [Read more...] about The WFHWK Life: The Down and Dirty of Working Mom Survival

Nursing Mothers Granted Tax Break

January 14, 2018 by ModernMom Staff Leave a Comment

Great news! Nursing moms are getting a new tax break from the IRS for breast pumps and other supplies. The same proposal was rejected in 2010 because the IRS didn’t think breastfeeding had enough benefits to be considered medical care. But the American Academy of Pediatrics and other breastfeeding advocates fought for the proposal, citing the many long-lasting health … [Read more...] about Nursing Mothers Granted Tax Break
