Post Baby Meal Plans

Post baby meal planning is officially complete! I love how this program fits my needs and it takes into consideration that I will be nursing which means some extra calorie intake in my daily meal plan. Ready to get down to business after Baby J is born. I highly recommend looking into this program. Need help?! I would love to assist you, just let me know!

Be Human

This is so true! I have to admit I am guilty of it too. We often times focus on posting all the wonderful things in our lives and we forget the negative aspects that make us human! We ALL have things we don't like about ourselves, our lives and even the people in it sometimes. Instead of hiding and projecting ourselves to be perfect, why not be truthful about both sides, good and bad. You never know who may be going through the same struggles as you. Let's empower each other with the positives and negatives in life.

Scheduling Tip

Quick Tip:
As odd as it sounds, I schedule out all the major things that I do in my daily routine. It keeps me accountable and I love checking them off my list when they are complete. I even schedule my workout! Why? Because it's something that I consider an important part of my day that I want to fit in. It's a great visual reminder and it alerts me when events are coming up. This calendar app is a great way to keep your schedule straight and have daily reminders to complete tasks that are in your normal schedule as well as random things that may pop up. I love to stay organized and this helps, especially with my pregnancy brain.

Prego Mama Tip

✨Morning mommy tip for all my prego ladies out there✨ Along with the Shea Moisture belly butter I previously posted about, I use Vitamin E oil every day. I apply coco butter lotion then top it with this Jason Vitamin E to keep my skin moisturized, comfortable and itch free👌🏼 Give it a try! You can find this at most stores in the organic section.

Your Body

It's truly amazing the things our bodies are capable of. I have seen it through health and fitness and recently with my journey through pregnancy. Our bodies are unbelievable the way they change, adapt, create and build every single day. Creating a new life other than my own has really given me a deeper perspective into the importance of taking care of the body God gave me. Fueling it with good foods, exercise and surrounding myself with good company. Enjoy life and live it to the fullest but never take it for granted. Take care of the one body you have and appreciate how amazing it is❤️

Prego Mama Tip

Prego mamas: this butter cream is pure gold! I love this stuff and use it faithfully every day🙌🏼  As our pregnant bellies grow, the skin stretches and can get itchy. I apply this cream to my belly every night, it really reduces the itching AND prevents stretch marks. I am almost 34 weeks and I am stretch mark free! Applying lotions, like this one every day has really helped that. Grease up ladies😉 It's worth it!

Put Your Heart Into It

It's not always about how well the workout went, how tired you got, how you physically feel or how long the workout was. Sometimes, it's how hard you push, how much heart you put into making it a great workout regardless of anything else going on around you. So get started, workout and forget everything else. Put your heart into it and you will be satisfied❤️

Great maternity workout to get you ready for labor.
