Pregnancy is a magical time when a woman's body undergoes a myriad of changes to accommodate a growing fetus. Depends on what your definition of magical is, though. People often highlight the glowing skin, luscious hair and “cute” baby bump. Those can be great side effects (although there are no guarantees), but the wonder of pregnancy ...
A Clapback for the Snapback
You know what’s annoying? People who act like being pregnant is equivalent to taking a shot of euphoria as they walk amongst the lilies and meadows. “Oh my gawww… It’s the most amazing feeling in the universe. I just can’t wait to meet this perfect bundle of joy in person.” That was never my reality. No, ...
A Fine Line Between Paternity Leave and Vacation?
The title may seem like I'm trying to be shady, but I'm not. I truly am interested to hear people’s response to this one. What is everyone’s take on paternity leave? 🤔 Don’t get me wrong. I absolutely believe that men should be permitted time off to bond with their child. It just depends on how ...
The Fourth Trimester
Fourth trimester? Yes. You’ve been lied to this whole time, pregnant women.
40 Weeks and Counting…
I have a confession to make. I've been slacking. I mean REALLY slacking. My goodness... I haven't written a blog post in a week, I haven't posted a hair video in two months, and you know why? Because I've been tired; but more importantly, I thought I'd already have a baby to take care of by ...
Nesting Phase Not Kicking In
I've read and heard many people talking about the "nesting" phase of pregnancy. That's when soon-to-be mothers start cleaning and organizing frantically to prepare for their baby's arrival. Well apparently that urge skipped me because I'm straight chillin' in these last days of pregnancy. :cool: My hospital bag is not packed, I still have some tidying up ...
It’s the FINAL COUNTDOWN!
Now that I got that Europe song in your head, which by the way is great to play during your last few minutes of cardio in the gym, let me explain my countdown. Yup... you guessed it... it's the countdown to when my baby boy will arrive. This is where you say, "Ugggh... not again! She ...
Forever Grateful
I was going to write you guys on Monday, but then I thought, "I'm having an office baby shower on Tuesday, so I'll just update the readers then." But do you really care about that? You already heard about one baby shower... why rub it in? lol. I will say that it went really well and ...
The Power of the Bump
Even though I've mentioned how annoying people can be when commenting on my pregnancy, I also don't think I've ever met people who treated me so kindly as when I was pregnant. Yes, even on a late Saturday afternoon at Wal-Mart... Wal-Mart! (Can you tell I shop there a lot? Darn you, low prices!) "Excuse me, ma'am. ...
Look at My Bell-eh!
You may or may not have noticed that I didn't have a new blog entry on Friday. The reason was because in my previous blog post, I stated that I'd have belly pics next time. (I even had the nerve to say "promise".) So when Friday rolled around and I had nothing, I couldn't bring myself ...
