My Pregnancy Diary: My New Favorite Nursing Bras

 Hellooo 9th month!  

You know what that means, baby is almost here and it's time to make sure I have everything I need.  One of the many things on that list was to find the perfect nursing bra.  Well, let's just say I can now check ✔ that off my list.  Enter Bravado Designs

My Pregnancy Diary: What We Added to Our Registry

 As requested (on IG) here is a quick breakdown of what we added to our registry!

Now, before I start, here are a few things:

+ I highly recommend creating a BabyList registry.  It's awesome because you get to link ANYTHING you want for all over.  Bye-bye to 100 different registries from 100 different stores.  Once you link an item, BabyList will show buyers multiple websites that sell that particular item and their prices.  Which is great for when things go on sale.  It also allows buyers to "reserve" items and come back later to purchase them without the risk of someone else scooping it up.

+ Our bigger items that I'm not able to link below include:

- Crib from Ikea
- Nursery dresser from Ikea
-Changing table from Ikea

+ I also included things like swaddles, bibs, mealtime goodies, and others from Mushie. (Totally obsessed with this brand!)  A bunch of items from Frida Baby, muslim burp clothes, crib sheets, a diaper fund, and a few clothing items.  I also added 2 different diapers and wipes brands to see which baby prefers.

If you are shopping for a new baby or in the process of creating your own registry,  hope this post is helpful! 😁

Happy December! 

Today I wanted to share a few pregnancy products that have become favorites over the last 2 trimesters.  I've tried to be smart with my purchases and invest in things that can easily transition into post pregnancy life and of course buying things on sale.

So let's get started! 😁

Baby Bump at Golden Hour

Hello 25 Weeks + PinkBlush Maternity Review

Bump's First Autumn

Hey guys! 

SoCal has finally dropped in temperature, so today I'm sharing some Fall bump style.  Other than bump friendly leggings and 2 pairs of denim, I haven't really invested in maternity clothes.  I've been shopping my own closet and buying cozy oversized pieces that I can continue to wear.

Two of my most recent purchases have been this H&M sweater and Target midi skirt.  This sweater is such a great buy at only $25!  It debuted last Fall in multiple colors so I had to grab another.  (I also purchased my pre-bump size, a medium, so I could wear for years to come.)

This Target pleated skirt was also a great buy.  Great quality and $28.  I purchased a size medium and the waist fit perfectly right over my belly.

I've linked this look below.  😉 Hope you guys enjoy this post!  

My Pregnancy Diary: My Top Baby Gear Questions Answered

 Hey guys!

About two weeks ago I asked a bunch of baby related questions on my IG stories and I received a ton a great advice and recommendations.  I recently started to set up my registry and was looking for help with gear that I would most definitely need/not need, plus highly recommended brands.

Here's what the results looked like...

(Again! Thank you SO much for all your help!)

Question: What is some of your favorite tech gear and gadgets that gave you peace of mind. Has anyone used the Owlet sock?

Answers:

-  A baby monitor and camera was the #1 recommended tech gadget.  Brands that were mentioned were the Angel Care Baby Monitor, Infant Tech Car Monitor, the Lollipop Camera, and the Nanit.

- Ewan the Sheep, which is a plush crib soother teddy that works as a nightlight and white noise machine.

- Baby Brezza formula dispenser.

- Nutribullet Baby food blender for homemade baby food and storage.

- Hatch Sound Machine.

- The Owlet Sock was recommended by those who had it.  It is loved and gave peace of mind. However, a few did mention that the sock increased mom's anxiety when the sock would fall off or was best as a gift because of the high price tag.

My Current Fave Baby Boy Clothes

 Hey guys!  Now that we know baby is a boy, we've been having so much fun shopping for him.  I always thought boy clothes were so limited and not very stylish, but you just need to know where to look.  We are very into light neutral tones and luckily that is pretty popular right now.  One of our favorite stores to shop at for baby is H&M.  They have great gender neutral basics and cute trendy outfit which we love!

Today I'm sharing a round up of some of my favorite pieces that are on baby's wishlist to help you shop for the new baby in your life, wether it's a boy or girl. 💛

Skincare Routine Update: Products That are Safe to Use During Pregnancy

Hey guys!  

By now, we've all heard of the major dos and don'ts during pregnancy.  Mostly things that we shouldn't eat or drink.  But, did you know that a lot of the ingredients that are in our skincare products can also be harmful to our growing babies?  I know I had NO idea and I'm so happy I found out early on because I was using many of these harmful chemicals.

Finding blog posts and articles online were super helpful for me, so I thought I would "pass it on" and share what I've learned in hopes that this might help you now, or in the future.
