TW: Emergency c-section As frustrating as it is not to have the answers as to why things happened the way they did, it doesn’t change the outcome. I am so grateful for the knowledge and expertise of the professionals God placed in the right place at the right time to make sure Baby Root Beer and I came out of this ordeal safely. #birthstory #birthplan #epidural #noepidural
A nurse came into my hospital room last week and said, “oh, this is your third! Then you know what you’re doing then, hey?” I laughed out loud. The only thing I feel more confident about this time around is knowing it’s okay ask for help! #baby1vs3 #momcontent
True story: when hot hubby and I went stroller shopping for my first, I cried on the drive home. There were so many choices, and making the “wrong choice” felt overwhelming (kind of like everything about being a new mom felt!) This time around, I know that as long as my baby and I are safe and comfortable, there is no “wrong choice.” And am very happy with our choice of the @maxicosi__official Oxford stroller and Mico Luxe car seat. While they both look and feel luxurious, the forward-thinking details like the 5-point magnetic harness and quick folding mechanism make them practical too! #maxicosipartner #momlife #momof3 #baby1vs3 #giftd
A couple weeks ago, I asked for your ideas to naturally induce labor and here are some of the most popular ones! What did I miss? #momcontent #38weekspregnant #inducinglabornaturally
It’s amazing what you can do with just one free hand! After having support at home for the first two weeks, this was my first time tackling the morning routine on my own as a new mom of three. I have to admit, having two older children who are capable of (mostly) independently getting themselves ready is pretty nice, but I’m still in the sleep deprived/time is relevant/newborn crib, so the kids may or may not have needed a late slip, but hey, they got there, AND I remembered it was picture day, so we call that a win, right?! (Okay, okay…my oldest reminded me, but still!!!) 😜 #momvlog #momlife #momof3 #newmom #newbornmom

I had to give myself some grace this year… Typically, I love to throw elaborate birthday parties for my kiddos, full of themed DIY decorations and out of the box treats. However, having a baby just three weeks before my daughter’s birthday made doing that a little more challenging this year. Instead, I adjusted my expectations, and in doing so, realized those over-the-top decorations and food may actually be more for me as my daughter said this was her favorite party yet. Having @Bubble Skincare send us goodies for all of the girls to do their skin care together, also didn’t hurt! The giggles, excitement (and numerous, cries of“slay!”) upon opening their very own skin care made my mama heart so happy… and a little less guilty for not even baking her a cake this tear - as one of her guests kindly pointed out! 😂🙈 #momvlog #newmom #newbornmom #momofthree #preppyparty #tweenparty
