Accountability

Don't worry, I didn't do anything bad. I'm just making a mental note - actually a written - typed - note of what my next few blog posts will be about so y'all can hold me accountable as well:

School

Wedding Planning - mostly vendors now and the RSVPs going out

Boundaries w/ family

Pregnancy opening my eyes and seeing everything/everyone for what and who they are

Nesting to the extreme

Talk to you soon

How’s preganancy been!!! I hope you have a safe beautiful delivery 🤰🏽🥲💐💗

Hey 💕💕 honestly, I’m really thankful because for the most part I’ve had an easy pregnancy. My only real complaint was the hormonal acne and not being able to use retinol lol. But God is good. I hope you have a blessed day 🩵

Late night thoughts

I know I said I’ll be back after finals but this warmed my heart today. My Husband and I were discussing our birth plan and I was just thinking like “wow, I’m really blessed”. No one in my family can tell you they had a plan or what they needed except for my grandmother coming to the house - no tea no shade. But discussing postpartum, our mothers coming in BRIEFLY, and no one else, along with mechanisms in place to help decrease either the likelihood or severity of postpartum depression, along with discussing helping me at night while I study from home for a few weeks. Like God really took his time with making my Husband and I really love that for me and pray all my Sissy Poohs find someone like that as well.

P.S. I know I’ve been talking more about my marriage and my Husband but I’m in a place right now where I’m really relying on him emotionally and he shows up day in and day out and makes me feel safe. I have to big him him up.
