Honestly love how comfortable you are with talking about sex, including pregnancy sex, just goes to show how mature you are and such a good role model by not shying away from the subject and talking about it so respectfully,, so much love to you!! I hope you guys get the house of your dreams soon , I just know it'll be something special that your little boy will always talk about when he's older ☺️ 💜

Especially as a Christian! Christians are told for so long “don’t have sex” “sex is bad” blah blah blah and I think a lot of Christians or anyone who waits until marriage gets a skewed view of sex. And then it’s even more difficult to talk about.

I always hated when I heard “don’t get stressed, it’s bad for the baby!” When in reality, every woman has stress and worries during pregnancy. Just allow those thoughts to pass through you! It’s holding onto them that allows the negativity to fester. Just think, one year from now you’ll be in the home of your dreams cuddling your sweet baby. 🥰

That’s because some of us are very private when it comes to sex. It’s between us and our boo. It’s sacred, intimate, and the one thing (other than kissing mouth to mouth of course) that you get to do with them and ONLY them.

When you begin to feel a Charlie horse coming on, immediately FLEX your foot up. Act like you’re pointing all the way up at the sky with your toes and hold it tight. It will tighten your muscles and it won’t let that sharp pain come into your leg.... My mom taught me this. It works every time

I had an unmediated birth in December and it was so EMPOWERING! My entire pregnancy I prayed so much about my birth and read as much as I could about labor/birth. If I could give any tips it would be to focus on breathing, remember that your mind is more powerful than the pain, and that each contraction brings you closer to your baby. 🥰 It’s the most rewarding pain, I’d do it again in a heartbeat.

No joke this would make them not come at all! Don't know why it worked but I swear it NEVER failed.

Hi! I have a degree in kinesiology and health science! Antacids (like tums) are high in calcium carbonate and calcium carbonate is needed by muscles in order for them to contract properly. Therefore, taking tums could help prevent muscle twinges/cramps! Hydration also helps as well! You should try this if you want, Kristin :)

I recently had a baby boy (11 weeks ago) and the best piece of advice I would give to any mom to be going into labor is to relax. Relaxing is hard but I read somewhere that fear slows everything down and it is so true. God will be with you in that room and whatever happens, happens. Just take huge, deep breaths and mentally prepare yourself when you feel a contraction. It’s easier said than done but it’s true. I remember tensing up so much with the first contractions and I relaxed my body and let the contractions course through me and I ended up dilating from a 1 to a 10 in like 2 hours and pushed for 5 minutes (this is my first baby). Good luck girl, you will get through it!!

My best tips for an unmedicated and natural birth: 1) Stay calm during the contractions. I closed my eyes, tilted my head to the right side, and counted until it was over. You’ll figure out what works for you! 2) Don’t request anything during a contraction and tell your nurses you don’t want to be asked if you want something during a contraction. Request pain meds and epidural when you’re not having a contraction and have a clear mind and not at your weakest point. You can do it!

I had an unmedicated birth for my 2nd child & it was the best experience!! My top tip is to PREPARE. Prepare for how to recognize what stage of labor you’re in, bc otherwise you could start panicking during transition if you don’t realize you’re actually at the very end. I repeated this quote to myself and it helped me be strong: “The pain cannot be greater than you because the pain IS you.” Trust your body, girl. The pain of labor is a good thing....unlike those stupid Charlie Horses. ❤️❤️❤️

It's sooooo crazy to think of the pain you guys were both in this time last year and the immense happiness you guys are in now. And if thats not a testament to how great God is and what he can do for your life, I dont know what is. I am a billion percent certain that he has the best plan for your home situation and that everything will work out better than either of you could dream, but I will keep sending prayers for you guys to have some comfort. Also I know that it's your body and everyone is going to think about their body in their own way no matter what anyone tells them, but I think you gaining a little weight in your face especially is soooo cute on you. When you lost all the weight after the accident I was so worried about you and not being able to eat or being too sad to have any type of appetite. I'm so happy that this season has come for you and that it's allowed so much healing. Also I don't know, I've just always loved people with chubby cheeks and rounder faces, and especially babies like that, which I'm sure yours will be so healthy and beautiful ❤ you are absolutely the sweetest person, along with lexy, and I hope you guys are always this happy 🥰 love you guys

Gave birth to my first one almost 3 months ago all natural and although it was painful it was so rewarding knowing I did this unmedicated and it makes you realize your body is amazing and capable of so much. You can do this!!🎉🤍

This really relates to how my lifestyle is at the moment I’m in a place temporarily but i know things will fall into place we just can’t stress ourselves peace within can translate to peace within the universe around us we have to be positive especially during this time of creating our little one!

I used to get Charlie horses every morning growing up when I stretched my legs!! It’s the worst I’m so sorry! One thing I found that helped is if you start to stretch and feel it coming on, instantly flex your foot back instead of pointing. It would curb the pain by a mile and oftentimes make it go away completely. So excited you’re in the 3rd trimester!! 💕
