Here is a big roundup of all of my pregnancy favorites! My pregnancy took place in entirely different seasons this time around and it was nice to style the bump in cozy layers (and wear leggings all the time!) Below you will find links to some of my favorite and most worn pregnancy items. My favorite maternity leggings are this basic black pair and then also my faux leather ones.

What I Packed In My Hospital Bag (Twin Pregnancy)
I am 34 weeks along with our sweet twins and the babies could be here any day. No matter what, at 38 weeks we will be inducing labor or doing a c-section (if they are not here yet!) so that's just four weeks away. I feel like it is way past time to get a hospital bag ready! A few differences between this hospital bag and my last one... First, twin pregnancies *usually* result in a c-section, so this time around I am trying to pack with that in mind.

Our Infertility Journey (Pregnancy #2)
Infertility is not new for us. We struggled to conceive our daughter Rosie as well. It was a really difficult journey and some of the darkest days I can remember.

Fighting High Blood Pressure During Pregnancy
At around 20 weeks pregnant, my OB diagnosed with me with gestational hypertension, which is essentially high blood pressure during pregnancy. I had three consecutive high blood pressure readings, where my blood pressure was higher than what the OB would like. The OB told me that slightly elevated blood pressure during pregnancy is okay. However, it can also be a sign of pre-eclampsia, which can be very dangerous for the mom and can result in seizures. My doctor is being cautious, doing ... View the Post
Trader Joe’s Shopping List: Pregnancy Edition
I love creating these Trader Joe's posts and I love how so many of you are just as obsessed as I am! Today's post is for the pregnant ladies! I need to preface this post with a few things! First, check with your OB! There were items on here that I was unsure about and checked with my OB’s office to make sure they were okay for me, but every pregnant mama is different! Second, although I never got sick, I had A LOT of food aversions. For the first half of my pregnancy, I really didn’t want ... View the Post
