The second trimester was definitely the honeymoon phase of my pregnancy -- I had tons of energy, minimal swelling, and felt all of those baby kicks. Here are some of the essentials that helped me thrive in the second trimester.
The first trimester can be a really intimidating time depending on how your body is handling being pregnant. Here are some of my first trimester favorites from when I was pregnant with Dylan.
Dylan's great-grammy Doris is turning 90 this month. I dressed Dylan up as an old lady and took a bunch of photos, hoping that one would be good enough to make a card out of.
