How many car seats and strollers do you really need? Well, that just depends on your lifestyle. I opted out of getting a full-size stroller with my first child and it's been the best thing I've done.

What I most use for my newborn as a breastfeeding first time mom

Breastfeeding comes with its own set of challenges, and finding the right nursing bra shouldn’t be one of them. When I first had my baby, I can't even tell you how many nursing bras I ordered and returned. It was SO hard to find one that fit just right, was comfortable, and that was easy to nurse in. A good nursing bra provides comfort, support, and easy access while preventing common issues like clogged ducts and discomfort. Whether you need something ultra-supportive, budget-friendly, or stylish enough to wear every day, I’ve rounded up the best nursing bras for every need.

In a dream world where I work for billionaires this is how they spend their money - Toys that exercise imagination, encourage creativity, and allow for risk-taking.

✨ My TTC Journey for Baby #2 ✨ Our journey to baby number two has been a mix of hope, patience, and quiet strength. Unlike the first time—when everything felt new and full of surprise—this chapter has come with its own lessons and emotions. I’ve carried the joy of wanting to grow our family, along with the uncertainty that comes when things don’t always happen right away. There have been months of tracking, planning, and wishing… moments of excitement, moments of disappointment, and moments of reminding myself to breathe and trust the timing. I’ve learned to celebrate small steps, to listen to my body, and to give myself grace through the ups and downs. Even on the harder months, the dream of holding another little one keeps my heart steady. This journey has taught me resilience, patience, and deep gratitude for the family I already have—and the one I’m hoping to grow. Baby #2, whenever you're ready, we can’t wait to meet you. ❤️
