2nd tri musings ✨ 1. everyone’s body develops differently and it’s incredibly frustrating & exhausting to hear comments about the size of you. “your are so small” or “you look like your about to pop” or “you are all belly” all no’s. let’s try you look beautiful, you are radiant, you are doing amazing instead. 2. dry brushing daily and legs on the wall- easy ways to feel good and carry less water 3. download the yuka app 4. women’s health education is completely overlooked in the U.S. soooo much of the information given supports fear and anxiety & lacks patient centered, comprehensive care. the system is.... flawed.... but i’m glad i learned about meth when i was in middle school 🙄 5. your social circle gets smaller and stronger 🥹 6. magnesium citrate by day, glycinate by night. one hell of a mineral. 7. magnesium cream for pain & belly oil all over the belly, back & boobs 8. doulas and midwives are angels sent from heaven and fountains of knowledge and the least judgmental & most wonderful people you will ever meet 😇 9. it’s wild how natural the process of being pregnant feels while also its so foreign 10. trust the process - trust your intuition- trust your body is doing it “right” whatever that means !! 11. careful with your consumption! don’t ask everyone else about their experiences. you’ll likely hear a lot of things that aren’t relevant to you and insight more anxiety & fear. although knowledge is power, in this case, protect your experience & peace 💛 12. my affair with grass fed beef & coconut products continues.. 13. don’t over do it on the pregnancy books. expecting better, bringing up bebe & the mama natural were my fav 📚 14. enjoy the energy. have fun with your friends.
