My pregnancy necessities

So I figured since this is the last time I'm probably going to be pregnant, I'd document a little more about it.

I'm a simple gal. Well for the most part... Anyways, I don't have very many "needs" while i'm pregnant but here is a list of what I DO need! 

1. Gestational Diabetes- This is the first pregnancy that I have this. It hit me a little hard but because I though it was going to harm the babies, I was pretty sure it was because I was having twins that I got it in the first place though.. So I check my blood the entire time. If I think I'm in the clear, I don't check it and pay the price. Kind of like the other day. Although I didn't not check it unintentionally, but just fell asleep during the night in bed while watching tv. I gave Aurelio the responsibility of making sure I check it and taking my prenatal vitamin. He was so much better at remembering those things than I was. Except now he falls asleep in bed too! So I'm sure remembering to check it all the time now. The crappy thing is even if I check it, nothing! I'm pretty much healthy the whole day...

2. Support Belt- This pregnancy is the first time I used it. I love it! It's hard to wear with my clothes but meh. Not that I care about how I look too much since I will soon have the twins but I'm lucky to have it. I dunno. 

3. Get ready- I get asked ALL THE TIME, "How do you have the time to get ready with Isabella and Jaden?" Well I make time! My kids are used to me taking that time to get ready so they never bother me, I've trained them well ;)  I feel WAY better when I get ready. Even a small freshen up. Wash face and a messy bun and put something decent on. Sweats and a cute tshirt totally count! As long as I feel half dressed i'm good. Lately it's about comfort when i'm home so I live in my sweats or pajama shorts and a T or tank. Done. 

4. Diet Coke- enough said.

5. A good wardrobe- This is something I didn't have before and I felt so gross the entire pregnancy. It's so important to have clothes you feel good in, especially pregnant! I'm a budget shopper so I look for the cutest maternity clothes and the best prices by far that I can find! Anything else I have boughten is from regular stores in larger sizes. But it makes such a difference to have clothes I actually feel good in! Also I got a few pair of pants that are maternity free that I got from Loving Choices in Rogers, AR. That place is genius. I highly recommend it. 

6. Showers- I can't say enough how much I love showers when pregnant. That pressure in my back and hips from the belly pulling and growing kills. I especially love the "kicked in the crotch" feeling. If you've had it, you know what i'm talking about. Anyways so at the end of the day when everything hurts I jump in the shower. It works EVERY TIME. I can't stay in long so it's only like 10 minutes and i'm out. ha. But seriously, they rock. 

7. My other half- It's the BEST thing i've ever had for pregnancy. BEST! It takes the cake. Just thinking about it makes me want to go get it. That thing has changed my life and also replaced my husband in the bed. See you in 1 more month honey. 

So that's all. 

Can you feel the love?

You're welcome.
