I’ve cut back on my sweets for the benefit of my pregnancy and the health of my baby girl. Not to mention, I really haven’t been craving sugar the way I used to! Apparently, some believe that we crave what our bodies NEED for the pregnancy, which is why we sometimes crave weird things! I’ve been craving baby tomatoes and hated them before being pregnant! 🤪 let’s just say, I am definitely eating healthy, but me and my girl still run on Dunkin’ @dunkindonuts .

Dance till you I better! 🤧 15 weeks

10 days sick, and it’s not getting much better but I won’t let any bad energy or sickness bring me down with this baby! Our coping mechanisms are chosen, we can CHOOSE to feel sick, down and defeated or we can choose to defeat it with the positivity we have within us! So whether you’re sick, sad, losing faith, hope or just having a crummy day... do what James Brown says, “get up off that thing, and dance till you feel better!” 🌟🙌🏽

The scars to my beautiful 💛

12 scars later, 2 surgeries, a new belly button, some nerve damage from progesterone shots and some hormonal weight gain, let’s just say that getting #pregnant with #endometriosis and #pcos wasn’t easy- BUT IT HAPPENED! Instead of thinking negatively - I knew it would be do-able with the help of reproductive technology and an amazing doctor. I recently celebrated 3 months pregnant and am now officially in my #secondtrimester ‼️when I first saw my belly photos I thought my scars ruined my photo, and now I see they make it all the more real. Then I realized that there are not just scars on my belly, but on my heart, and those #scars make me the woman that I am, they don’t tarnish me, they create a unique beauty that no one else can have. Grateful for this belly, these scars, my story and for the army of #warrior #women who are behind me in this journey. You got this. I got this. #wegotthis turn your negative thoughts into positive ones— you’re worth the positivity! .

High sugar intake during pregnancy can lead to big babies, gestational diabetes, weight gain, risk of heart disease in the baby, pre-eclampsia, obese children and pre-term delivery! Despite this obligatory DONUT photo for #nationaldonutday yesterday, I have been watching what I eat, monitoring my sugar and trying to eat as healthy as I can! The first trimester was all about survival from nausea, which called for CARBS! But now that I’m officially in my #secondtrimester it’s all about eating the rainbow ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 . .

We talk about #bodypositivity and #fitness but just because someone looks thin or in shape doesn’t mean they feel it, especially if they’re pregnant. My body has changed dramatically since I began my journey to #pregnancy - and ever since, I’ve been working on learning to love my body despite the weight gain that had occurred since I started the #IVF process. I wasn’t allowed to work out, I craved nothing but carbs and felt exhausted. It’s hard to feel like you don’t recognize your body, what it looks or feels like, while also trying to embrace and love it for the gift of life it’s giving to you💓 today, I embraced this body I was given and the way it has been carrying me, my heart, mind, soul; and child. .
