39 Weeks | Baby Funk 2

Monday, January 25, 2016

No comments
  • How far along?: 39 Weeks
  • Baby is the size of a: Swiss Chard bunch (19-21 in, 7-8lbs) (according to WTE Pregnancy)
  • Total weight gain/loss:  +28
  • Stretch Marks?  I'm a little bummed that I got stretch marks, but they are still very tiny so I know they won't be noticeable.  This baby is worth every single one, so I'm not complaining.  Still using Mustela and BioOil.
  • The Bump: Large and in charge!
  • Symptoms:  Does not be able to put on your own shoes count as a symptom?  I've hit that point in the pregnancy.  I definitely feel the baby dropping this week and I feel like everything make me a little nauseous.  I started swelling a little in my hands and feet this week too.
  • Food Cravings: Give me everything!
  • Anything Making Me Queasy or Sick: Nope.
  • Sleep: I'm not sleeping much at all anymore.
  • What I miss:  Sleep.
  • Weddings Rings On or Off: Currently off :(  Hoping the swelling doesn't last long.
  • Any Names Picked Out Yet: Still nothing!  I don't know what we are going to do!
  • Gender: We've still managed to keep it a surprise from my family and friends.  Of course, if you've been keeping up with my posts, you know that Michael already let it out to his family.
  • Movement: I'm not sure what's going on in there, but the movement has been a little uncomfortable lately....and lots of it.
  • Maternity Clothes: Oh, yes!  Thank goodness for Target and PinkBlush Maternity clothing. 
  • Labor Signs:  Oh, yes.  My contractions seem like they are still picking up slowly.  Hopefully they are actually doing something.
  • Moment of the Week:  We are being induced on Saturday! I am so excited to finally meet our baby.  I'm a little sad I won't be going into labor on my own, but God has a great plan for our little family and I am trusting Him.
  • Feeling:  Still very emotional. 
  • What I'm excited about/looking forward to:  The arrival of our baby.

  • How far along?: 27 Weeks
  • Baby is the size of a: cauliflower (9-14 in, 2 1/4 lbs) (according to WTE Pregnancy)
  • Total weight gain/loss:  +10 (I've hit double digits!) 
  • Stretch Marks? Still looking good with no new stretch marks this pregnancy.
  • The Bump: Holy bump.  There's no hiding it now.
  • Symptoms:  I am getting the worst cold this week.  Hoping it goes away soon and my pregnancy immune system isn't that bad.  I've been trying all natural remedies, so fingers crossed.
  • Food Cravings: Shortbread cookies with coffee.  Yum!  I almost ate an entire bag in one sitting :/
  • Anything Making Me Queasy or Sick: Nope.  I think it's safe to say that I am way past all of that nonsense.
  • Sleep: Sleeping is not going well this week.  This cold is kicking my butt!
  • What I miss: Being able to take something strong to get rid of being sick.
  • Weddings Rings On or Off: On.
  • Any Names Picked Out Yet: We've thrown a few out, but not many.  I'm not sure we will have a name until the last minute!
  • Gender: It's a surprise :) Even though Michael found out and blabbed it to me and a few of our close friends, none of our other friends and family know.
  • Movement: Baby loves to do all sorts of crazy moves...all the time!
  • Maternity Clothes: Oh, yes.  There is not fitting into anything that isn't maternity or workout.  My belly band worked well for a while!
  • Labor Signs: No!
  • Best Moment of the Week:  We had a lunch date with the sweetest boys and their mamma this week.  Love when we get to hang out with friends.
  • Feeling:  Over being sick!
  • What I'm excited about/looking forward to:  We leave next week for our annual trip to Indiana for a family reunion/vacation.  Looking forward to cooler weather and spending time with family.

Review | PinkBlush Maternity

Wednesday, September 16, 2015

I had such a hard time finding maternity clothes when I was pregnant with Emma.  They were either super expensive and not something I could wear after pregnancy or they made me look bigger than I already felt.  I was so very happy to find PINKBLUSH Maternity this time around.  A huge shout out to their maternity line.  I have absolutely fallen in love with their clothes and was excited to do this review for y'all.

I have had so much fun dressing up my baby bump and I seriously owe it all to PinkBlush Maternity.  I can't believe I didn't know about them for my first pregnancy.  That's why it makes me happy to be sharing them with all of you now.  I also love that I can still wear these amazing clothes after having Baby Funk#2!

Here are a few of my favorite looks for this Fall!  I was fortunate enough to enjoy cooler weather while on vacation and wear these amazing clothes.  Now, if Florida would cooperate! ;)

This maternity dress made me feel gorgeous!  I couldn't get enough of it and can't wait to wear it again.  You can find it here.





This top is so lightweight and comfortable!  You could easily pair it up with a fun scarf or statement jewelry.  I've probably worn it 100 times already!  You can find a similar top here.







LOVE this kimono!  When I'm in a rush or want to spruce up my outfit a little, I just throw this on.  It's the perfect addition to my wardrobe :)  You can find this top here.





PinkBlush even has a clothing line for women!  You can check out their site here.  This is definitely a clothing line that I will be using for years to come.

If you hurry now, you can get 30% off your purchase using code 'FBLIKE' for today!  PinkBlush is always having great deals, which is another reason why I love them so much!
