    Yup. I devised a nice way to cradle her with my legs folded so she was in a little cocoon. I didn't have to stand or hold her, just hold the bottle. 90% of the time, it worked almost every time. But it was our best chance to get sleep lol

    The artist shared that she's been drawing cartoon characters since she can remember herself. "I invented my own character, the tiny 'Julia' in a pink shirt when I went to school! She is always there for me. When I became a mom, I was so shocked at how my life changed, and I wanted to share my emotions with the world. So I began to draw comics online."

    The most challenging part of the creative process for Yulia is finding time. "There is always not enough time for it! When I draw, I feel like it has been 5 minutes, but it actually took the whole hour! And when you have kids - 1 hour is a lot of time."

    "The main things I enjoy in the creative process are the beginning and the result. I love this feeling when I get a new idea for the comics and make a quick sketch. And then after the whole work is done, I enjoy the result. But I do not really enjoy the coloring process, to be honest. It takes too much time."

    Yulia shared that she would like other people to take joy and a good mood from her comics. "I love making people laugh and recognize themselves in my comics. I want to make people happier! And I want all moms to know - they are not alone! We all struggle with parenting problems. But I like to show it from a funny point of view."

    I have this problem too (the hair inside the shirt, not the searching for my lost youth inside my shirt). My hair isn't even that long but somehow there is almost always a hair inside my shirt or the back of my underwear tickling my crack. Usually, I discover it while in public, where I cannot really fish around in there and remove it. I occasionally want to shave my head and then vacuum and see how long it takes to find a longish hair in my clothes or on the carpet. It probably wouldn't be very long. *For context, I'm female*
