For our first child, we had a registry at Babies R Us. We found ourselves still searching multiple places to find everything we needed for the baby. It was time consuming and just frustrating. We already had the stress of a baby coming, who needs the added stress of finding items elsewhere on top of …

Our Big Gender Reveal! Instead of an official bump update this week, I decided to write a special post. Our big gender reveal happened last week! We held a gender reveal party for our family and posted it on Facebook live as we revealed the sex. I can say it’s so …
Almost halfway there!! We had our ultrasound this week and they were able to tell if the baby is a boy or a girl. The results are currently in an envelope for us to find out at our gender reveal next week! The baby seems to be growing perfectly and measuring around 11 oz. with …
I’m at week 18! Next week we get to see the baby on the ultrasound again. I can’t wait to see Leah’s reaction. This week held lots of cravings, pain, and exhaustion, but I did remember to take a bump picture. That must count toward something… right? The baby is as big as an artichoke …

I’m officially in the 2nd trimester, also known as the most energizing, comfortable trimester! I hope that holds true. At Week 13, the baby is the size of a lemon. On Sunday, the baby was the size of a potsticker! That made me laugh when I saw the comparison. Did you miss the Week 12’s …
It’s my last week in the 1st trimester! Hopefully that means I am in the clear from nausea and fatigue (fingers crossed). At week 12, our baby is officially the size of a plum. It’s crazy how much the baby is growing every week! Did you miss our pregnancy announcement? Check it out here! …
I have some exciting news for my Journey to SAHM readers! I’m having a baby! We are so excited for Leah to be a big sister and she already loves the idea of having a baby around. Obviously, that might change once there is an ACTUAL baby in the house. Either way she was fully …
When I had my first child, I was adamant I would breastfeed. I had heard so many positive reasons for breastfeeding like decreasing allergies, breast milk changing based on your baby’s needs, more bonding time, and weight loss. All of it sounded great. My friends reminded me it wouldn’t be all glitter and sparkles. They …
