About Baby Rabies

This is what happens when baby fever becomes something more. Jill Krause self diagnosed herself with baby rabies (it’s not an actual contagious disease, FYI) in the summer of 2007 when she became obsessed with getting pregnant. Learn more about the definition of baby rabies here. She started blogging about all things trying-to-conceive then. Eleven years and four babies later, Baby Rabies is now a internationally recognized pregnancy and parenting blog.
