Everett’s Birth Story

It’s taken me six months to write this post and now that I’m finally typing it out, it reminds me why timing is everything. If you’re new here, my fertility journey was a long one that spanned five years. So, you’d think that I would have read all the books and truly prepared myself for the birthing experience. But, it’s only now that I understand that nothing can really prepare you to have your first baby because things don’t always go according to plan. I couldn’t have told you that…

5 Maternity Loungewear Favorites

No matter if it’s your first trimester and you’re battling morning sickness or your third and you’re struggling to walk from room to room without losing your breath, having good maternity loungewear when pregnant is a must. Loungewear doesn’t have to just mean a matching set (although this one is so cute). It also means soft and stretchy dresses, comfy joggers and maybe even an easy-to-throw-on jumpsuit.
