Over the next 5 days, I’m going to share my WHYs for my journey! Although some days will be hard and others will be so exciting, this week is the perfect week because three years ago this week I found out I was expecting a very unexpected bundle of joy and thus the self-esteem issues, depression, and anxiety began
💭
The take home message will always be: YOU ARE ENOUGH
🤗
Day 1: Confidence in my body (mom bod)
👩👧
This one is a difficult topic for me because NO ONE likes to talk about this struggle. I mean come on, you grew a human so you should be happy with the “battle scars”. WRONG!
🙄
About 9 weeks into my pregnancy, the “father” lost all sexual attraction. He ended up cheating on me and blaming my body for it. Cue self-esteem issues! 😳
I’ve always been one of those women who believed that the right guy will find me attractive and to hell with what everyone else thinks. BUT having the one person in your life that society says should care for you more deeply than anyone else tell you that your body was changing and it was gross to see really takes a toll on someone
😑
After I had my daughter, I hated my body. Yes I made some killer jokes about the mom jiggle but I still missed the flat tummy, lack of wrinkly “double chin” belly, and smooth skin! I even considered getting my tattoo touched up to hide the stretch marks
😥
But here we are three years later and I COULD NOT be happier with the way that I look! This journey has given me so much confidence in myself. I AM BEAUTIFUL with all the stretch marks and belly skin, with the missing teeth and chubby thighs.
😍
If I could tell myself from three years ago ONE thing, it would be: YOU ARE ENOUGH.
😊
Never let anyone make you feel like you are less than extraordinary because every body is different and pregnancy is a BEAUTIFUL MIRACLE.

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
