Be Thankful♥

Hey I am so sorry for the little small post I have been doing....Writer's Block!

Something that has been really heavy on my heart....

Be Thankful for the people that are currently in your life and let you know that you appreciate and love them. This time of the year is known for celebrating festivities but also known for an increased number of fatalities. Just because they are today doesn't mean that they will be here tomorrow. Don't let someone slip away from you without you telling them how much you love and care about them!

Love Always and Happy Holidays.::

Need some sleep???

Whether it's you or someone your trying to put to sleep. Here are a couple of tips that might work for you!

First, I would suggest lights out. Turning the lights off can be a good way of letting your body know that its time for some sleep.
Next, I like to get comfortable. Find clothing that is most comfortable for you to sleep in. It's weird for me to sleep in my socks so I have to make sure they are off for me to go to bed.
Try listening to "white noise", it is something that usually puts babies to sleep very easily. Depending on what you have use your resources. I used to use a small desk fan and place it on my night stand facing me and it helped to put me to sleep. In the winter you could use a humidifier. The sounds from the fan/humidifier are also calming and helps to put you to sleep.
If all else fails....Try Youtube.

I love Youtube. It is so useful in many ways. Try searching rain noises or wave sounds. I recommend Yogaduke. He has so pretty awesome video and gets me to sleep FAST!
I will link one of his videos below.....

Good Night ♥

Surviving a Teen Pregnancy Pt. 3

Okay So this is the last of the 3 part series of surviving a teen pregnancy. In this post I am going to be talking about Getting ready for the arrival of the baby and things that happen in the last 3 months of pregnancy.

Link to Part 2: http://xxsome1likemexx.blogspot.com/2011/10/surviving-teen-pregnancy-pt2.html



Ok, so the last 3 months are going to be longest part of pregnancy. I'm pretty sure you are ready to just get it over with so that you can see you little bundle of joy! Things are really going to start feeling like your in slow motion, or at least as far as your pregnancy goes. Here are somethings that will help you speed time along.

Getting Maternity Pictures
 You can go and get them professionally done if you will like. Sometimes you can find coupons in your local newspaper cycle or you can even find coupons on the internet. They do not necessarily have to say maternity pictures, just as long as it isn't a holiday promotion. You can also get someone to take the pictures for you. Now, a lot of people have their own digital cameras and you can make your own maternity photo shoot. Be Creative!

Baby Shower
This is the thing everyone waits for during a pregnancy. Maybe one of the best parts besides the arrival of the baby. You should really try to get someone else to plan your baby shower for you or someone that will help assist you in preparing for the baby shower. Planning and preparing can be very stressful and you really don't need to be getting stressed out over this.
      Tips
          -You should start planning for your baby shower 3 months before your due date and your actual baby shower should be about 2 months before your due date. I suggest having the shower this early because it gives you a chance to see what things you NEED after the baby shower and gives you time to get it. It is also good to have the shower a little early because remember the baby really can come at anytime!

Things you need to take baby home from hospital
There are a couple of essential things that you will need in order to take your baby home from the hospital.
Here is a list.
- Infant CarSeat
-A special "homecoming" outfit (Make sure you dress your baby appropriately for weather) and blankets
-Diapers and Wipes(The hospital will provide you with some but only enough to last you maybe a day or two)
-A crib or a Bassinet
-Feeding Supplies(Depends on whether you breast feed or bottle feed) I wouldn't recommend buying baby food before the baby is born because your baby might need a special formula if you are bottle feeding.

Packing your Hospital Bag for Delivery
Okay, so this is a very good idea to pack yourself a hospital bag for when you go deliver. It's a good idea to have this bag packed ahead of time so you can either just grab it and go or if someone is going to be with you they can just grab it and not have to look for anything. I would suggest packing 2 bags. One for a labor bag and One for Post Postpartum bag.Here are so essential things I would pack in my bag 1:
-Toothbrush and Toothpaste
-Lotion, Bodywash, and Deodorant
-Lipchap or Lipgloss
-Hair care things
-Music(Ipod, or CD)
-Camera
-I also recommend something you can hold on to or squeeze like a teddy bear. This will help during contractions.

Bag 2:
-Nursing bras and nursing pads(you will need pads even if your not breastfeeding)
-Change of clothes
-Baby going home clothes and blankets (Dress appropriately for weather)
-Going home outfit for yourself(You will be about the size you were when you were about 6mths pregnant)
-Things for someone who will be staying at the hospital with you!
