Welcome to my Jaded Path to Motherhood!

Hi, I’m Anita 👋🏼

I’ve been unemployed since May 2024, I’m single, and I’m having my first child at 35.

Without diving too deep into the typical sob story (don’t worry, more on that later if you’re interested), let me just say—I’m off to a great fucking start, right? 🙃

That’s part of why I decided to create this blog. But more importantly, this is for all the pregnant or soon-to-be-pregnant folks who are at their wits’ end—especially for my fellow Latine parents-to-be who grew up drowning in guilt but are finally saying, “Fuck that!” We’re doing things differently here. And if our families can’t handle it? Tough shit.

On this blog, I’ll be sharing anecdotes about how my pregnancy is going, products I’m testing out (some winners, some WTFs), recipes I’m actually enjoying, and whatever else feels worth sharing.

You’re welcome to tag along on this jaded path. I hope you find some laughs, useful tips, and tricks—but above all, the support you need to know you’re not alone.
