Going on Vacation While pregnant


I planned the vacation knowing I would be just a few weeks away from my due date & to be honest it wasn't that bad, I had to rest a lot and at the end of the day I was done but I got to enjoy family time which it was so much fun, yes I even ventured in the ocean which it was super refreshing, walked a lot, ate delicious and treated my self to sweets.
I want to share with you what make this trip so much easier for my self and my family. First of all I only packed what was really needed, including beach items. We have a van so there was plenty of space (can't say that will be the case next year) We put the kids together side by side (usually they are separated by a seat) that way they could see movies together and my oldest helped get things for my beautiful demanding daughter. I packed snacks for then and put them all in a bag on their feet, blankets too and each had a backpack full of toys, coloring books and their favorite stuff animals.
For my part I got my self a comfy travel pillow and blanket that i keep in the car now days, also water bottles a most. We stoped a 2 times in and out. Sleeping now days is hard for me, multiple trips to the bathroom at nigh don't help, but I made sure to nap when I could that was two days out of 4 which it was not bad. I mainly was in my swimming suit and cover up, but for nights I liked to dress up a bit and dresses where my go to. I forgot to apply my self sunscreen one day and got a bit of sunburn not much but it bothered me for a few days coconut oil saved me feel better. My hair hates moisture so it was most of the time up on a bum or frizzy (picture seriously captured that). If you get motion sickness like me I took my peppermint oil and saved not only me but my son. By the end I was ready to go home which it seemed to take forever but wouldn't trade it for anything. I also just went with the flow, whatever I wanted to eat for dinner we had, whatever we were up to do we did. Once I got back I realized it was our last vacation as a family of 4 which it got my hormones going. Now I'm just getting last minute ready for baby #3 and getting ready for my other two babies to leave me and learn.

Thank you for reading,

My Newborn must Haves

Can you believe is been 7 weeks since I lay eyes on my 3rd child, geez time is going too fast for my liking, I want to share with you what products have made this first month easier for us and baby products I love. Fisher-Price Auto Rock 'n Play Sleeper, If you are like me that has other children and need time to care for them, this will come in handy, She only takes naps during the day in it but it saves my arms. WubbaNub  I love those because there is no way to loss the pacifier like we did with my other children (we were constantly losing them and buying more) also it keeps the paci from getting out of the mouth while they get the hang of it. Moby Evolution Wrap Baby Carrier I love wearing her, it makes chores easy when she wants to be held and it calms her down, having her close is the best, it is intimidating I will be honest it took me this long to get the hang on how to put it on and use it different ways. It is not very supportive on my ...
