Yeah I would die with my maternity jeans on lol. They are the most comfortable thing ever. Not everyone stays home... we can't wear leggings to work every day.
This is so cute. I stumbled upon your videos a month ago. I’m a new mom. I absolutely love you. Thank you for all of the content you put out. I got your ultimate pumping guide. Big help.
Pregnancy book idea Instead of scrap booking just the pregnancy (cause let’s be honest when you give to your kid in 20 years they won’t super care) Make it partially pregnancy, then the rest important milestones or special moments, including notes that future them can read It’ll be a lot more meaningful in my opinion and involve their entire childhood and core memories rather than a few months that they won’t even remember That way once they move out, they can look back at those happy memories they made with you together
HOWEVER. With target as long as it’s the target brand you can return within a year of purchase. I drove home so fast to grab my maternity clothes (I’m DONE lol) and returned them 😂
When I was little my siblings had a whole cabinet filled with pots and pans that they didn't like to cook with for us to play in and apparently it kept us super entertained
Pretty sure I tried to eat my toes as a baby/small child. Also sand. If the colour spaghetti takes long to prepare, most babies will happily have it plain.
My oldest 2 daughters were 18 months apart and I tell everyone just don't do it I barely remember my middle daughter as a baby. They are 7 and 8 now and either get along or constantly bickering. It gets easier but still challenging in different ways.
I lived in my maternity jeans and jean shorts over summer! I also loved maternity t-shirts. I like tight fitting shirts and a bunch of my tops stopped fitting at about 12 weeks due to my boobs
I needed my maternity jeans, but I really only needed one pair. I feel like the same goes for maternity tops--you really only need one or two, tops. What you WILL need is different and comfortable bras. I also recommend belly bands... They feel good. Also, compression socks and hose. You will thank me.
My older sister had a baby book that my mom diligently filled out then she got to me did a little bit of it then stopped my little sister doesn't even have one
My first pregnancy I didn’t need maternity clothes because of how I carried my son, my second pregnancy I needed maternity clothes almost immediately, even leggings were uncomfortable.
Some of us unfortunately have a skin-crawling, and agitation response to the sensation of breastfeeding. We might have sensory issues from neurodivergence, trauma or who knows what but still want to do the best we can with what we can do, sometimes that means pumping or formula. Do what you can and don’t worry about people’s opinions, they aren’t the ones living your life, feeding your baby.

I thankfully didn’t buy any piece of article of maternity clothes. And thankfully all of my dresses that i own I could wear while pregnant. Now I what I didn’t prepare for was having clothes that are breastfeeding friendly 🙂
I disagree with maternity clothes. I need at least a few key pieces. Jeans are a must for me..bought my daughter 6 bottoms 2 dresses and about 7 shirts all second hand for about $50.
I LOVED maternity jeans. I wore them forever afterwards too. Plus i had to work till i went into labor and had to dress professionally so maternity clothes were necessary for me. Its nice to keep them around if you plan on having another baby soon afterwards.
I ended up wearing maternity pants at 22 weeks when I was pregnant with my twins. I would add a comfy pair on no slip slippers and belly band for support.
Maternity jeans ARE comfortable! I wore them throughout the entirety of my last pregnancy. And ginger ale helped my nausea, straight up ginger root had a tendency to make my heartburn and acid reflux 10 times worse. Like with all advice, take it with a grain of salt; what works for one woman might not for another, and vice versa.
