Sharing real life as a young mamma just wanting to do it differently. A whole lot of grace and a little bit of lace.
While I truly love hearing positive pregnancy stories ( ai did with Hudson), as well as women who have everything go pretty smooth with multiples, I also have been on the other side now where throngs didn’t go as planned. Complications in pregnancy did occur and affect my view of pregnancy. Theirs really 2 things …
Did I really just type that title? Kind of feels so weird because it’s been such a huge part of my dedication to this pregnancy. As most of you know I had to take the 1 hour glucose test as well as the 3 hr at 8-10 weeks this pregnancy as I had GDM with …
I got this recipe from https://pin.it/6kBbOo1 So easy and delicious! I tweaked just a few things. I actually used a bread mix flour for the flour, added some keto maple syrup and a bit more milk. The bread was very moist and flavorful!! A perfect treat that won’t spike blood sugar and don’t feel guilty …
This song… 🙏🏻It got me thru the heaviness of so many appointments. Thru the diagnoses, the NFT’s, the lab work, the lonely apts., the fears that I had to fight. The words resonated with me every step of the way until our sweet girl was safe here in our arms.The encouragement and peace it brought …

I’m still the same mamma.💙 (Swipe to see me last July) A year ago I was at my fittest since high school. I was even below pre-baby weight and felt good about where I was at. But there were 2 things here that weren’t right. 1. I wasn’t exercising as I should. 2. I wasn’t …
I am 35 weeks now and the impending time is starting to really drive my crazy! 😅 I’m so excited, but also a little nervous about how labor & delivery will go this time around as a high risk pregnancy. One thing I do know, is that having a hospital bag packed is a must, …
#meaningfulovermodish A messy mirror, a late night.But one that won’t detain my lightA heavy heart of a mom, it showsI fall before the maker who isn’t slowIf duty calls, then is it true?Can I really cast my cares on you?In whispers of prayer my heart finds hopeFor in this season He is my cloakA heavy …
Excited, anxious, nervous, anticipating. These words completely describe how I feel with 8 weeks to go. This pregnancy definitely feels like it’s gone by faster. And in many ways I’m grateful and can’t complain. But I know I’ll blink and she’ll already be a few months old. So far my GD (gestational diabetes) with the …
