I’m Meg, the founder of Lucie’s List and Edamommy Publishing, Inc. I have two crazy girls, Lucie (6) and Alice (4).

My heart is in the South, where I grew up, but my soul is here in San Francisco (the San Francisco Bay, that is).

I went to Georgia Tech undergrad and got a degree-I-never-used in Industrial Engineering. I later went to the University of Florida to get an MBA in Real Estate Finance. After the market collapsed in ’08, I got pregnant with Lucie and everything changed forever.

At the time, I had NO CLUE what I needed, let alone what to expect during pregnancy, labor & delivery, and infancy. After a miserable pregnancy (complete with hyperemesis gravidarum and all), failing to properly latch my baby to the breast, dealing with postpartum pain, buying overpriced strollers, and struggling through sleep training, I vowed to tell everyone the *secrets* that nobody told me. You know, the stuff that no one talks about (but should).

I created this site and weekly email newsletter, a.k.a. “Crib Notes,” so others could learn from my mistakes — and maybe have a laugh or two along the way. The email newsletter distills the overwhelming mountain of information into weekly, bite-size chunks and are delivered exactly when needed. Thanks to our 360,000+ amazing subscribers, this entrepreneurial escapade has morphed into an incredibly rich and diverse parenting community.
