Pregnancy is not so bad

.... Well at least for me it wasn't.

One. My nails and hail grew long, strong, and fast. It was awesome.  Who doesn't love healthy nails?

Two. No period. Not cramping for at least 9 months is wonderful.

Three. You can eat as much as you want without any judgement. On a side note though, you should eat every thing you crave. Your post partum body will thank you for that later.

Four. No exercise for the same reason above.

Five. People have sympathy towards you. Let them open doors. Let them get you something across the room when they offer. Indulge in it while you can because soon it will be all about your little one. 

And last but not least…

Six. You are growing a human being. Your baby will be the most precious and important person in your life. Cherish they time you spend with him or her while they are in your belly. You are the only one that will ever share that bond with your baby.

One Month Favorites

One. Pampers Swaddlers Love these diaper. I have tried Kroger and Luvs. These are by far my favorite diapers. They have a yellow line that turns blue when she pees.

Two. Swaddle Me these are so much better than regular receiving blankets. All the ones I had were too small. She would kick out of the blanket in the middle of the night which would cause her to wake up. With this she is snug as a bug. :)

Three. Dr. Brown's Bottles I register only for Dr. Browns bottles but got other kinda as well. These are so awesome. Ally drinks out of them wonderfully. I will say not to bother with the 4 ounce ones though because before you know it your baby will move to 4 1/2 making those useless. 

Four. Boppy makes feedings go by so much smoother. It helps preventing your arm from going to sleep!

5 on Friday

One. Weather. It's cold. I live in Texas. It should not be cold. It was 21 degrees here this morning and 37 in anchorage. What?

Two. Procrastination. I'm already on my second week back to school and I'm behind. Kudos to all you mothers going to school while caring for an infant. 

Three. Valentines Day. Getting my Valentines present early. 

Four. Exercise. I got lost on campus. Again. I really have no sense of direction. Now you ask how this relates to exercise? Well I walked around for 30 minutes in the cold and my uggs. I haven't exercised since I was pregnant. I was sweating in the cold. Before I was pregnant I was one of those people who barely sweated. Now I get winded by walking. Great. Next week I need to start exercising to get to my pre pregnancy weight. I want to wear my skinny jeans again. 

Five. Movie night. Fiancé, Ally, and I Re going to watch cloudy with a chance of meatballs 2, captain Philips, and the Lone Ranger. Now whether or not we will make it through all those movies is highly unlikely. 

Happy Friday y'all!
