Maternity Fashion



           This was definitely a rough one for me to come to terms with. Your body changes so much, its exciting to see your bump grow but in the beginning stages its really hard to see your self gaining. I had hoped I would just wake up and boom there's a cute little bump. So this obviously didn't happen and I went  through a phase of feeling chunky having nothing to wear and maternity clothing was too too big. Six months pregnant and both the green shirt and leggings were to big. Both were an extra small. 


 I found a solution! Don't give up! Keep looking even if it takes you hours like it did for me. I have found my balance in wearing tight clothing and non-maternity clothing. Pants I went to h&m these aren't pictured but they are mama super skinny jeans I love them! There so comfortable I ended up finding legging at target in xs on clearance and on the rack which was nice, as well as a few shirts.




















Dresses I'm obsessed with tight, loose and maxi. I try and get dresses that I know I can wear after my pregnancy so its not a complete waste. I found that Pink Blush Maternity has the best maternity dress for work and events before and after baby! Hope this helps and don't be afraid to ask for help or advice i'm always here to help!
                                                       Lots of Love,

Our Pregnancy Story.



When you grow up you are instilled at a young age the right way to do things meet the one, get married and start a family. God had a different plan for us thats for sure. I met the right man the one I would marry in a heartbeat. I moved in with him supported his schooling helped in any way I could. I felt as even though I wanted to be engaged before I did any of this, but he was the one, I know we will get engaged when the time is right. I never thought that I out of all people would get pregnant not once but twice! My birth control was causing me to feel terrible, moody and not in the mood if you know what I mean here, I chose to stop that method of contraception fully taking, knowing and accepting whatever happened next. Well surprise a month later I was preggers early February 2016. I didn't know what to think of feel, thankfully with a supportive man in my life he was overjoyed and ready for the challenge. I surprised him with a pair of converse a baby kings shirt and a poem on adventure. At that moment I knew we could take on anything. Everything came to a halt pretty quickly I was in my 8th week when I miscarried, that is something I wouldn't wish upon anyone. We were truly devastated, having to tell our family was the hardest thing I had ever done. I feel like these big things happen so we can appreciate more of the little things. When you see so many people have fertility problems you start to think i'm I going to be just like that. We talked and decided that we would use protection after the miscarry. We didn't talk soon enough though. Here came god throwing in another curve ball. We had had sex once before using protection after the miscarry just ONCE. That was all it took. As I waited the allotted time of 5 weeks to get my period again it didn't happen. I took a pregnancy test which was negative, waited a week took another. What do ya know i was PREGNANT! I didn't believe it I went to the doctors and they told me nope the test was negative. I was definitely confused I was on week 6 no period. They had me wait a week and come back. The following week the night before I was to go in and test again I was dying not knowing if I was pregnant or not. So I dd what every girl would do and took another test myself POSITIVE. I knew I wasn't going nuts, when I arrived the next day at the doctors test in tow I was preparing myself for the worst. That didn't happen. I was Pregnant they said, all though I expected the worst but new the worst couldn't happen I was shocked at how quick that happened! My first doctors appointment after would confirm that I was farther along then I thought which meant I was pregnant before I could even think about not being pregnant the first time. God has a way of doing things that for sure.
Lots of love,
