About Natalie Aurigema
Babies & Backbends is a motherhood and lifestyle blog created by Natalie, a mother of three sharing life as it actually unfolds, equal parts movement, home, travel, healing, and the beautifully unfiltered reality of raising a family.
What began as a space rooted in yoga and early motherhood has evolved into a broader reflection of real life: the seasons of parenting, personal growth, home and design, wellness, and navigating change with intention. Here, you’ll find stories from everyday family life, thoughtful reflections on motherhood, and inspiration drawn from the spaces we live in and the lives we’re building.
Natalie is known for an aesthetic that blends coastal cottage warmth with French-inspired simplicity, but the heart of Babies & Backbends goes far deeper than design. This is a place for honest storytelling about motherhood, identity, resilience, and learning how to move through life with strength and grace, even when it’s messy.
Through blog posts, personal essays, travel diaries, home inspiration, and curated recommendations, Babies & Backbends offers elevated yet approachable ideas grounded in real experience. Every product shared, space styled, and story told comes from lived life, not perfection.
At its core, Babies & Backbends is about growing alongside your children, honoring where you’ve been, and creating a life that feels both meaningful and lived-in. A reminder that motherhood doesn’t ask us to shrink, it asks us to evolve.
