Butter Up your Belly

I wanted to share with you a great product , Dream Cream by LUSH.

This Body Creme is ideal for your growing Belly, I slather it on after the shower to help prevent the dreaded S  T  R  E  T  C  H   M  A  R  K  S.

Dream Cream is LUSH's best-selling product because it makes sore, stretched skin feel good again. Chamomile and lavender calm irritations, reduce redness and banish blotches. It contains everything nature makes for soothing your skin.

Week 20

It feels so Good to be Back, as you may have noticed I have been absent from my Blog Post's for a few weeks.  I have been on my summer vacation (Yes I squeezed myself into a bikini and loved it!!)  However after all this traveling my Hips are becoming a little tight and my lower body is getting fatigued much quicker. 
Take a look at these hip openers that have been a real help to my expanding hips, and fatigued lower body.  Try these postures after a modified sun salutation to experience the real benefits!!

Week 17

This week my Yoga Practice has consisted of mainly hip and chest openers.  As my chest and belly becomes larger, I needed a pose that would help counteract all of that forward flexion and extra pressure in my chest and lower back.  I have found the perfect pose for me, take a look and give it a try.

Week 16

Week 16 had come and gone so quickly.  I have been feeling great and maintained my energy through our weekend travels. 
Each night I read from my heaping mound of parenting book's, taking notes, blurting out weird facts to my husband like, "she has fingernails now, or she can urinate now."  I suddenly had a light bulb moment, "where are his mounds of parenting books? " I realized my husband has no resources to keep him up, make him wonder " is this normal", " am I eating the right?" or "oh NO I just ate FISH"  the list goes ON and ON. 

With Fathers Day right around the corner I pick up a copy of The Expectant Father by Armin A Brott and Jennifer Ash.  He LOVED it, now we are sitting on the couch and he's quizzing me, " Did you know that eating protein can increase brain development?" "What's a Doula?"  Don't forget your expectant Daddy's this weekend!!
To my wonderful Husband, I love you Matt

Week 15

                                     It's a Girl!
Our recent Dr's visit revealed to us that we are expecting a baby girl.

Many thoughts went through my head the moment we found out that we were having a girl.
1) Excitement turned to worry
2) Teenage Hormones (will she hate me?)
3) BOYS (car dates..Daddy's worst nightmare)
4) How to raise a confident, polite, and intelligent female

This post, instead of giving advice I'm asking for advice.  What advice can you give us on raising a baby girl into a beautiful women?

Week 14

As week 14 comes to a close I have to say this week has been pretty uneventful as far as pregnancy complaints and or concerns.....

This week I have started to check out maternity wear and am finding myself a little disappointed here in Lex.  So I extended my search online and found a website that I absolutely love!! This site allows me to keep my pre-prego style without looking like im in my PJ's or a Moo Moo..
