Not going to lie. . . This was a post I was really hoping wouldn’t happen! I am officially past my long awaited due date! Up until a week and a half ago (you may recall from my previous BumpDate) I was content as could be to wait for the arrival of our new […]

Hospital Bag | What I’m Bringing
With less than two weeks away from my due date, I figured it was about time I finished packing my hospital bag! When I had Beverly I really didn’t know what I needed to bring, or what was unnecessary. In the end I had a Very. Full. Bag. I packed anything and everything that […]
BumpDate | 37+2 Weeks
Can’t believe we are only approximately 3 weeks away from meeting this little babe! Feels as close as tomorrow! For the most part I’m doing pretty good. Yes, my body is definitely falling apart, but not nearly as bad as it was with Beverly by this point. With her I was on bed […]
Stretch Marks | Hate to Acceptance
“Tiger Stripes” “Angel Scratches” “Stretch Market” “Tiger Belly” Stretch Marks Not too long ago I posted a picture on Instagram of my poppin’ baby bump and all the stretch marks that wrap around it. The amount of comments and messages I got by Mama’s and young women who had their own share of stretch […]
BumpDate | 22 Weeks
Oh hello “over half way mark”! Well. . . I’m hoping its over half way. With Bev having been 10 days late, I am trying not to get my hopes up! This pregnancy continues to amaze me by how fast it’s going! Mentally I feel like I’m only 14 weeks pregnant! Time flies. […]
BumpDate | 15 Weeks

Empowering Expectant Mamas
This is for all the Mama’s Have you ever asked a pregnant woman, or a mother with a newborn how her pregnancy and/or delivery was? Did she respond with “Fine!”, or “Good!”? Perhaps something along those lines? How many Mamas have responded to that question with complete honesty? In my personal experience, almost […]
28 Week Pregnancy Update
THIRD TRIMESTER!!! Exciting things have happened in the past six weeks! And my goodness have those weeks flown by. I only have 12 weeks to go! Still no development in preparation for the little one. And my crazy dreams have gone away for the most part (oh great now they are gonna come back). […]
Staying Connected to Your Style
When I first started getting my baby bump I was excited for so many reasons! I always thought pregnant women were gorgeous with their beautiful bellies of all shapes and sizes and couldn’t wait to have one of my own! A growing bump was a constant encouragement and assurance to me in my first […]
22 Week Pregnancy Update
OVER HALF WAY! We are always told that pregnancy is nine months long but also forty weeks. . . Which is technically ten months. . . So why do we say nine months? Maybe because you don’t usually find out till a month in and then you have nine months left in your ten […]
