Preggie Pops!

Any of y’all struggling with MORNING SICKNESS OR NAUSEA?  I know it feels like it will never end and nothing that you do will make it better.  I promise you it will end and there are some things you can do to help give you some relief.  I talked about MORNING SICKNESS AND HYPEREMESIS in my blog a while back where I listed a few things you can do to help.  This was before I knew about PREGGIE POPS FROM THREE LOLLIES.  

THREE LOLLIES is a company that came up with natural products called PREGGIE POPS AND QUEASY POPS to give women struggling MORNING SICKNESS during PREGNANCY or anyone who may need nausea relief.  The products were made by healthcare professionals to allow people a natural approach to dealing with any nausea.  

During PREGNANCY most women are a bit scared to be taking medications, even if the sickness is so severe that it is so necessary.  There are some medications that are safe but even still, there is hesitation from many women when it comes to taking medication during pregnancy.  I went through this myself.  With HYPEREMESIS, which is far more severe than morning sickness, I had no choice but to take the medication.  I was terrified about taking the medication.  Even though my son is happy and healthy despite all of that, I wish I had known about the PREGGIE POPS.

I was very fortunate to recently be able to try PREGGIE POP DROPS PLUS and PREGGIE NATURALS (CHEWS).  PREGGIE POP DROPS PLUS come in 2 all natural flavors, sour raspberry and sour lemon.  They are $5.50 a box and come with 12 lozenges in a pack.  You can suck on them for at least 15 minutes!  PREGGIE NATURALS (CHEWS) come in a variety of flavors; peppermint, raspberry, ginger, and green apple.  They are $3.95 a box and come with 15 chews to a pack.  They are super easy to chew and don’t hurt your teeth as some chew products do.  They taste like a delicious candy!  Both products have wonderful flavors, are very yummy and truly ease the quease!

I would recommend these products to anyone who is experiencing nausea, not just pregnant women.  These pops would be great to use if you get motion sickness and are taking a long trip or going on a boat.  They would also be beneficial for a patient who is experiencing a tough treating that would cause nausea.  THREE LOLLIES also carries products to help people who are trying to cope with quitting smoking.  I have not tried this product, as I don’t smoke, but I am going to have my uncle give them a go!  

If you try these products, I promise you will not be disappointed.  The products are affordable and will make a difference!

Don't Forget Daddy

One of the most important things to remember during your pregnancy is to keep your partner involved!  With all the changes happening, I realize that it is hard to remember your partner.  I had such a hard time remembering that my husband needed some love too.  To keep Daddy Dearest involved, there are some things you can do.  We always see things that say how important it is for the men to make us feel loved and beautiful, but let’s not forget, that our men are in need of some lovin’ too!

Today I received a vintage hat from Daddy&Company.  They are this amazing company that was started by Robert Nickell.  Daddy&Company has wonderful products for new and expecting Daddies.  Their products make sure you keep the Daddy involved.  From scrubs for Daddy to wear in the hospital to a daddy diaper pack, they have thought of it all.

One of my husband’s favorite products is a blue vintage hat.  On the hat it says “I’m The Daddy.”  It is 100% cotton with a metal adjustable buckle.  One of my husband’s favorite part about this hat is the distressed look and feel.  It already has that “worn in hat” feel to it.  My husband loves his hats...and has duffle bag filled to brim of hats; yet, he wears the same ones over and over.  Nothing beats those well loved, worn in hats.  This style hat comes in 3 different colors, stone, blue, and black.  I will be hosting a giveaway for a stone colored “I’m The Daddy” hat.

For all you expecting mommies, if you want to get a little something for the Daddy to make sure he is feeling loved and included, this is perfect for you.  For any of you veterans out there, this is great too!  It is awesome for all.  Just enter below for a chance to win a stone colored “I’m The Daddy Hat from Daddy&Company.

Maternity Fashion -- Giveaway!

One of the most difficult things that I found about being pregnant was feeling comfortable in my own body.  There are so many changes that we undergo through pregnancy and for some women feeling beautiful while pregnant doesn’t come easy.  In my own situation, because I was so sick and looked it I didn’t feel beautiful at all, I just felt like I was huge and looked horrible.  Pregnancy is such a beautiful time and embracing your new body and what your body is doing is a wonderful part of being pregnant.

For me, dressing nice and keeping up my appearance definitely made a difference.  I hunted for places that sold affordable, adorable maternity clothes and that was no easy task.  I didn't want to spend a fortune on clothes I was just going to wear for a short time.  I did end up coming across this awesome site, Pink Blush Maternity.  Through my entire pregnancy I wore clothes from Pink Blush Maternity.  Whether you want to lounge on the couch in some comfy yoga pants or get dolled up for a night out, they have super adorable and affordable clothes.  They always have amazing sales and offer free U.S shipping on orders of $50 or more.  Something I found so great about their clothes is that I am still wearing them post pregnant.  The clothes grow with your baby.  As the bump grows the clothes stretch, whether 3 months or 9 months, they fit great!

One of my favorite outfits is a navy and beige vest with a tank and navy maternity jeans all from Pink Blush.

This outfit is super comfortable and can all be found at Pink Blush Maternity.  These Navy Blue Basic Maternity Skinny Jeans stretch with the bump and the best thing about them is they don't slide down! With jeans I found elsewhere they slide down hand I kept having to do the butt jiggle and jump to get them repositioned.  With these once they were up, they were good to go.  The tank top I am wearing comes in a variety of colors, this outfit would go great with the Navy Blue Maternity Cami.  Finally, this navy blue maternity vest is so comfy.  The material is wonderful quality!  That is the beauty of Pink Blush is you get quality and quantity.  Their clothes are great for nursing and post pregnancy as well because without the bump they fit just like regular clothes!!  Post pregnant I find myself wearing they're clothes more often than not!  Even the jeans! A girlfriend of mine who had a c-section said the jeans were really awesome because they didn't cut into you and you don't have to worry about buttoning them up over a healing incision.
