A little first trimester recap with baby #2 šŸ¤

I’ve gone back and forth about starting a podcast, but I think for now I just want to make more videos like this. Sit down, talk, share what’s going on, what I’m learning, what I’m researching… all the things šŸ˜‚

Part of why I really want to document this pregnancy is because we’re planning another out-of-hospital birth, and I know how helpful it was for me the first time around to hear other women talk about their experiences.

There are SO many decisions you make during pregnancy and birth, and I really just want women to know that you can ask questions. You can research. You can learn how your body works. You can choose a care team that aligns with you. And you can trust that God designed your body with so much intention.

I’m definitely not here to tell anyone there’s one right way to do pregnancy or birth. I just want to share what we’re choosing, why we’re choosing it, what I learn along the way, and hopefully encourage another mom who wants to do things a little differently too.

So if you’re pregnant, want to be someday, are curious about out-of-hospital birth, or just like conversations about motherhood, faith, health, informed choices, etc… follow along šŸ¤

We’ve got like 6 more months to figure it all out šŸ˜‚

For now, here’s baby #2’s first trimester recap šŸ«¶šŸ¼

These pregnancy hormones have me feeling a little ✨spicy✨ about healthcare lately. šŸ˜‚

Especially when it comes to letting health insurance dictate what we do (or don’t do) for our health.

I’m a big believer that YOU should be the boss of where your money goes and who you choose to invest in for your healthcare, whether insurance decides to cover it or not. šŸ‘šŸ¼

So I’m doing a little series on how our family approaches health insurance, healthcare costs, and choosing where we actually want our healthcare dollars to go.

Consider this part 1. šŸŒ¶ļøšŸ˜‚

Come with me as I get my brain inflated 🤣🤣
Just kidding. This is a cranial adjustment done by a colleague of mine. I love chiropractic and how many ways it can help people!!! In really committed to doing this a little more regularly so I can hopefully prevent what happened to me earlier this summer!
What things do you do to help your sinuses from freaking out during season changes and weather changes??

As my breastfeeding journey comes to a close, I wanted to share what I think helped me along the way.

I went into motherhood as a first-time mom with very little knowledge or confidence around breastfeeding. I also chose an out-of-hospital birth with a team that wholeheartedly supported my goals, and I truly believe that made a difference.

These aren’t rules or guarantees. Every mom and every baby are different. But these are the principles that helped me: prepare, stay close to your baby, ask for help, practice often, and trust your body more than your fear.

If you’re hoping to breastfeed, my encouragement is this: surround yourself with people who support your goals. The right education, encouragement, and support system can make all the difference.

Happy World Breastfeeding Week. šŸ¤ I’d love to hear—what’s one piece of advice that helped you on your own breastfeeding journey?

ALLLLLLL THE POTTY CHAIRS šŸ˜…šŸ’€šŸ’©
We were gifted some, thrifted some, and still bought some new. They’ve all been used and honestly, with how smooth this has gone, I’d say it’s been worth adding 6 new toilets to our house! 🤣
She did use a big potty the other day without any toddler seat , so that was exciting. We still haven’t had a ton of practice with public restrooms…I will carry that green potty chair around for as long as I need 🄰
Hope this has been helpful for prepping for potty training! Toddlers are so smart and adaptable, they will really learn anything we want them to do…or don’t want them to do šŸ˜…šŸ˜… it’s a blessing and a curse in some ways.
God Bless you in your potty training journey!!!

Almost done! I will die in the hill that most of potty training is the parents needing to be retrained! They ya a slight change in routine for a bit and humans hate that…so we put it off for as long as possible. One of my mentors says ā€œchange is easy, thinking about change is hardā€ and it’s so so true.
Here’s how I’ve realized I need to change our routine in and out of the house while potty training!!

Potty training & Pooping!! We didn’t have any huge struggles with this but some parents do…so there’s a whole chapter about it in the Oh Crap Potty Training book.
But basically think about it for adults….some are weird about p**ping outside the house so don’t be surprised if your kid is too.
Also your relationship with p**p, in general, can affect your kid. If you’re weird about p**ping, they’re gonna be weird about it too.
We trusted the process with this and knew it could be weird for a few days as her body and brain got used to p**ping outside of a diaper and didn’t make a big deal about it!
The nanny just informed me today that she told her she was ā€œtaking a dump!ā€ While she went potty šŸ’€šŸ’© she did not learn that from me šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
