1. Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Facial Oil

My skin experienced irritation and break outs during my 1st Trimester and this oil helped soothe and hydrate. I also feel great knowing it is clean.

Dan chose this pillow for me with his expert research skills and we loved it so much that he got one for himself hehe. The detachable arm relieves pressure on my shoulder and the cooling material is so soft.

I wore these almost everyday pre-pregnancy for my workouts and during my 1st Trimester. They had enough stretch to grow with me into my 2nd Trimester. I wear a size 6.

I have been living in these panties and the Uniqlo ones below. They’re buttery soft, stretchy, and don’t feel like they’re cutting into your sides.

Pre-pregnancy I was already wearing these and considered them my granny panties (even though they’re still cute), but now they’re my everyday panties. I purchased every color and they feel invisible. I wear a size L.

I also wore these pre-pregnancy and they feel like a second skin. During the 1st Trimester, the waist band goes high enough and gives support. Once the 2nd Trimester hit, I needed something higher waisted. I wear a size 6.

Pre-pregnancy we didn’t have a legitimate full length mirror in our house. This mirror has allowed me to take in the changes each day and document my growth. A pregnant body is beautiful and miraculous, remember to embrace and cherish every change.

I experienced constant nausea from weeks 6-11 and making my own/Dan making sour popsicles saved me! We would make them from lemon, water, celery, ginger or you can use any fruits you like! I called them my Nausea Popsicles.

As my belly started growing, I wanted to make sure to stay on top of moisture and hydration to keep my skin supple and stretchy. I rub this clean oil all over my belly and body.

Water tasted metallic and I constantly had this strange taste in my mouth that made me nauseous. Drinking these not only helped with taste, but helped keep me hydrated.
