The Reality of Hiking with a 10-Month-Old: Why Did We Turn Back?!

Keeping it fully real on the trail! Join this hiking mama and her 10-month-old baby, RJ, for a raw look at what happens when a planned adventure doesn't go as expected. We set out with my dad for a beautiful family hike, but sudden weather changes—from rain to high winds—had us making a safety call.

In this video, I’m sharing real moments hiking with a baby, including:
- Baby getting muddy every step of the way
- Breastfeeding under a poncho in the rain
- Weather changes and deciding to turn back
- Tips for staying flexible and prioritizing safety with a little one

I want to inspire other parents to feel more confident getting outside, but also to feel empowered to say "not today" when the conditions aren't right. Adventure isn't always about the summit; sometimes, it's about the lessons learned along the way.
