My little pumpkin turned 2 months old yesterday. I My little pumpkin turned 2 months old yesterday. I can’t believe how fast she is growing. Can we just freeze time for a bit? 💕 Did you catch her adorable smile in her sleep? 🥰
Instagram vs. Reality - Swipe for the reality lol. Instagram vs. Reality - Swipe for the reality lol. I try to take photos when she is sleeping but she wakes up as soon as I put the bow on her head. We discussed it and she did end up letting me take the pics of her. She allowed me to keep the headband on but kicked the shoes off in about 15 seconds. 🤣
My IVF blessing 💗 She took this moment to reali My IVF blessing 💗 She took this moment to realize she has hands…and those little hands fit in her little mouth.
I always joke about how I have to take a million p I always joke about how I have to take a million photos of myself in order to get the one to post, but wow, getting a “posed” photo of baby girl is wayyy harder. 😫 She fell asleep in my arms but the moment I put her down she woke up, squirmed and then ultimately started wailing. BTW, have y’all heard of the Baby Shusher? It’s kind of crazy how well it works. Swipe for with and without the Shusher. I just learned that the “shhhhhhh” sound helps babies calm down because it’s the sound they heard in the womb. 🥰
Can’t believe it’s already been 3 weeks of bei Can’t believe it’s already been 3 weeks of being her mom. 💗 I spend wayyyy too much time just staring at her face (like in the pic) that it’s been hard to be productive. 🤦‍♀️ P.S. I bought this matching set to wear for photos in the hospital but the first day and a half I could barely move from my bed. Also, swipe to last slide see what happened to my hair from lying down so much. I give major kudos to you girlies that can get all done up after giving birth. It was not happening for me. 🤣
We welcomed our miracle baby on July 27th. 💗 El We welcomed our miracle baby on July 27th. 💗 Elora Joy 💗 She ended up being 8lbs and 20.5” (slightly smaller than the range they projected.) This announcement is a few days late because I can’t stop staring at this beautiful child of mine. Every shot, every tear was a 100% worth it. I delivered her via planned c-section. At first I was super worried about the c-section but I started praying for strength a week earlier and most of my fears disappeared. It wasn’t until 30 seconds before the spinal that I felt a tiny bit anxious and I think it was only bc there was suddenly like 10 people in the OR and it began to feel real. I’ll talk more about the whole experience in my stories.
I think because the process of getting pregnant th I think because the process of getting pregnant through IVF was so long and I had to deal with loss & a lot of dissapointmemnt, that for most of my pregnancy, I was looking forward to giving birth much more than being pregnant. Now that I’m down to my last week of pregnancy, I’m suddenly dealing with the realization that I will never be pregnant ever again. And as much as I’m soooo excited and ready to meet baby, that realization definitely hurts my heart a little bit.
I can’t believe I only have two more weeks (or m I can’t believe I only have two more weeks (or maybe less) until I meet baby girl! It all feels so surreal. I prayed for this for so long and it’s finally happening! I went through the nesting phase and cleaned my entire house only for Prime Day prep to occur and destroy literally everything 😩😩😩 Well everything except this room at least! Btw so much of our nursery furniture is on deal today! I have it all listed in my storefront, but if you’d like me to send you the direct link, let me know.
I can’t help it that when I want things done, I I can’t help it that when I want things done, I want them done immediately or sooner rather than later. And when he says “just a second” it usually means I’ll do it, but in a few days or maybe weeks. Full on sloth mode. So am I the toxic one? Bc literally if I have to wait even a few hours, I feel a strong urge to do it myself. Tell me I’m not alone in this? The “never mind” has been working in the third trimester though. It has cut waiting times down by at least 3/4. 🤣
Not gonna lie, both options scare me. 😢 My OB s Not gonna lie, both options scare me. 😢 My OB suggested spinning babies but of course I get an error when I try to buy the online download 😭 Anyone have a good experience with doing the spinning babies exercises or with an ECV?
