Things That Make Working Moms Happy

Working moms are unsung heroes because not only do they successfully manage the household, they also take time to follow their dreams.

As a freelancer, I work from home, and though I have the luxury to set my own work hours, get stuff done in the comforts of my at-home-office, be my “own boss” if you will, things still get really difficult! No matter how hard I try to manage my time and to-do lists, sometimes, life can still be overwhelming! So I try my best to find a balance and indulge in the things that make me happy.

Things They Don't Tell You About Postpartum Recovery

I am 7 months postpartum and my gosh, I AM 7 MONTHS POSTPARTUM!

I still sometimes catch myself thinking how crazy it is that I have a beautiful baby girl! That I gave birth to a child. That I went through all the nasties, and that I SURVIVED! If you’re a mom, you know exactly what I’m talking about! It’s been a crazy yet fulfilling 7 months and I know the best is yet to come!

For today’s post, I just wanted to share some things that I didn’t know about postpartum recovery. This post is not that serious, and if anything, I hope you get a good laugh out of it.

Where To Shop Cute Clothes for Modern Mommies

After giving birth to Adeline, I had the biggest struggle finding clothes that fit and looked cute on me!

I naively thought that my baby weight will magically disappear the moment my baby leaves my body, so you could say that I had a rude awakening. For months, even to this day, I’m in this awkward place of not having clothes to wear because everything’s either too small, or too big. So I had to resort to getting new clothes; not that I’m complaining at all! I love shopping for new clothes, and today, I will be sharing with you an online store where you can get clothes for all stages of your life: single life (women’s clothing), pregnancy, and motherhood (maternity clothing)! PinkBlush sent me two tops of my choice and today I will be showing you how I styled them.

Why I'm Not Breastfeeding

The first few weeks — heck the first two months after giving birth to Adeline were so hard for me.

Like I said in one of my Instagram posts, I didn’t really give postpartum recovery some thought, so I didn’t expect all the pain that I felt. I actually still feel the pain now because my wound didn’t close up (yeah, I know huhu), but that’s a post for another day.

Today, I want to talk to you about why I am not “breastfeeding” Adeline. There will be no tips and tricks here. Just my thoughts, and my feelings about the whole thing.

5 Things I Do That Help Me Feel Like Myself Again ⏤ Postpartum Diaries

My postpartum recovery definitely took a toll on my body. I still don’t feel my 100% because one, my wound still hasn’t healed, and two, my baby weight is still on me. I know a lot of moms say to give the body time to heal, adjust, and be what it’s supposed to be for the baby, I can’t help but feel awful whenever I feel the pangs of pain down there and when I see myself in the mirror and in pictures. Like, girl, you really that big?! But I know all of this is temporary… that I will heal eventually, and that my body will shed its extra love handles.

Today, I will be sharing with you the things that I do to cope while I’m still on this road to complete recovery.

What's In Our Diaper Bag

Nowadays, the one thing I cannot leave the house without is the diaper bag.

It literally holds EVERYTHING we could possibly need in a day, that when we forget it (which we’ve actually done already haha), we’re doomed. So before leaving home, I make sure to pack all the essentials in the diaper bag, and remember to pick up the said bag before heading out the door.

Today, I will be spilling all the guts out of our heavy diaper bag to show you what we pack with us every single day. #FindYourBalance
