ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Elizabeth

When I got pregnant and ended up on bed rest for hyperemesis and cervical incompetence, I had way too much time to do deep-dive research into all things baby.

This site was born out of all those hours applying my research skills to preparing for parenting. This site specializes in data-driven deep dives, baby name data analysis, and frugal and prudent parenting.
