Hi I’m Beth. I’m 34 years old and I have a 4 year old daughter and a newborn. My husband and I have had a long and emotional journey to parenthood. I’m am so thankful and grateful to God for our children and I don’t take one single day for granted.

Has anyone ever had mastitis before? I’ve got it for the first time ever and I am miserable. Any tips to help give me some relief until I can be seen by my doctor?

I need help mommas. I breastfeed my 10 week old baby and I cannot get her to take a bottle. What bottles have you had good luck with? She won’t take a paci either. It’s like she doesn’t know how to suck on them.

Well my sweet girl decided she wasn’t going to wait until the 21st to make her grand appearance. My water broke shortly after 10 last night and within an hour I was already 5 cm dilated. I had to have a c-section so they did the surgery right away and she was born at 12:13 this morning. Welcome to the world, Evie Grace!

It’s FINALLY September! Only 20 more days at the most until my princess is here! 💕

I’ve had zero heartburn this pregnancy. Do you think that means my baby will be bald or is that an old wives’ tale?

Any other mommas have gestational diabetes? What’s your favorite meal/snack?

If you had a c-section, how many nights did you stay in the hospital?

Tomorrow morning is the dreaded glucose test. 🤢 I failed the one hour test last time. I wonder if that makes me more likely to fail it again or if each pregnancy is different. I only passed the three hour test by one point so I’m a little nervous how this time will go. Did you eat anything before your test? They didn’t tell me to fast but I may go ahead and wait to eat breakfast until afterwards.

I am obsessed with fruit salad right now.

Bump's first beach trip. This is my happy place.
