My Pregnancy Fitness Routine

I’m not going to sugarcoat it – my pregnancy fitness routine isn’t what I expected it to be. Before pregnancy, knowing that exercise was healthy during pregnancy – it helps reduce swelling, reduces your chances of gestational diabetes, improves sleep, increases energy and lots more – I thought I would do everything I had done before. That turned out not… Read More

My Pregnancy Must-Haves for All Trimesters

After using it through my second trimester and now into my third, I can offer… Read More

Our Big Island Babymoon

Although I may be remiss in calling our recent Hawaiian vacation a “Big Island Babymoon” – it was really just our Summer vacation – it has a nice ring to it so I’m going with it. It most certainly will be the last time we travel somewhere far away during my pregnancy so in that sense it was a Babymoon!… Read More
