Being pregnant amid a global health crisis is terrifying as is. Even more so is the prospect of also losing insurance while pregnant — which is exactly what happened to millions of people over the course of the pandemic. Leah Morales, an operations manager in New York City, is one of those people. She had just found out she was pregnant when the pandemic took a terrible toll on her company, by whom she was previously insured....
When it comes to living room furniture, or really any furniture you have in your entire home, it’s always a smart idea to choose multifunctional items that not only serve their original purpose, but also have features that are important to you. One of the easiest ways you can sneakily hide toys on the ground, extra blankets, or even pet toys, is to have some storage ottomans around the house so you can pick up excess items around the house and store them away quickly and easily....

And while we kept our colorful wallpaper up, we became more adventurous with the prints by ditching the florals and opting for tropical wall-coverings and bold, vibrant wall murals....

In December, the New York Times published a line that no doubt made every parent’s heart hurt a little more, that sent us all running to squeeze our children one more time. The line: “Gun violence recently surpassed car accidents as the leading cause of death for American children.” Said another way: more children in America are dying due to gun violence than due to any other reason. That statement — that fact — is simply horrifying, especially with the tragedy in Uvalde still looming large at the forefront of our minds....

For the longest time, sexual health advice seemed to start and end with “have condoms!” or “talk to your doctor!” Which was underwhelming and less-than helpful for people who are hungry to be proactive about keeping their sex lives healthy and pleasurable. These days, the conversation around sexual health has totally changed. The term now not only encompasses preventing sexually transmitted infections and/or pregnancy (that is, if you don’t want to get pregnant) but female sexual pleasure, consent and comfort (heck yeah!...
