Morning: First Time Mom Edition

Here is my take as a FIRST TIMER - let’s be real I had no idea what I really needed and what was TRULY necessary. As a first time mom and when my second time comes around these are a few things I’ll make sure to have in my bag. ( My bag is from Amazon, totally recommend!! Comes with a small toile

A car trunk organizer for only $5? Yes please! 👏🏼 ✨mini trash can holder or get a bigger one from the cleaning section to keep your car tidy from all the mess the kids make! ✨hand sanitizer, first aid kit & stain remover wipes are a MUST with kids! ✨get a pill organizer & stock it

As a new mother, I can't express how much of a blessing a child is. I would never want it any other way. But that doesn't mean I don't mourn my past independence and lifestyle at times. Here's a few of the things I miss as a new mom. What do you have to add to the list? #mother

Hey Again!! I know it has been a minute since my last post, but life has kindaaaa been life-ing (I’ll get into that in a later post, lol). But ANYWAYS, I’m back with another “things I struggle with” post as I saw all of the amazing responses from the last one. Y’all have no idea how good it fel

I was definitely not prepared to have a different baby every month 😂 he grew and changed so much 😭🥺. Motherhood is by the far the hardest thing I have ever done and also the best thing I ever done .. 🥺 #boymom #firsttimemom #unaesthetic #regularblackmom

Trying to increase my milk supply has become a full-time job. 😅 Right now I’m focusing on hydration, protein, supplements, and pumping consistently, but I’m always looking for things that actually worked for other moms. If you’ve successfully increased your supply, tell me: ✨ What helped t

I could go on and on about things that I hear all the time especially from the older generation and all the time it’s unsolicited advice 🤦🏽‍♀️ Things that are outdated now. I think that the one I hate the most it’s the passive aggressive comments especially after having a difficult day and bein

My THAT girl morning routine but as a mom of 2 under 3 1️⃣ Romanticizing my morning before the chaos begins 2️⃣ Coffee first. Always. 3️⃣ A moment of enjoying my coffee while it’s still hot (the key is doing this before both kids have to get up) 4️⃣ Priorities: baby fed, mom caffeinated 5️⃣

1. Philips Avent Bottles - Worked well for my baby though I know all babies are different when it comes to bottles they like. 2. Evenflo Shyft Dualride- Stroller carseat combo is a game changer! Cons: HEAVY, not budget friendly, outgrows fast. 3. Foldable Chair w/ table attachment - Perfect

Hi everyone! As we all know, college is tiring, and I wouldn’t be able to get through my days without a morning coffee! This is my step by step on how I make mine. I start by filling my cup with ice, and adding just a bit of milk to the bottom of my cup. Then, since I don’t have a coffee machine, I

Today for some reason I was up a little early 2am. 👀 My mother use to say you ain’t up by accident. So I use this time for prayer and bible study. House is nice and quiet I can focus and devour all the goodness. Matthew 49 is so easy to skip over but I believe every verse serves a purpose.

Breastfeeding was such a scary, overwhelming thing for me while I was pregnant. I went into my pregnancy thinking I was going to exclusively pump but fell in love with breastfeeding. The bond you build with your child is like nothing else and I feel so blessed to have made it to 10 months basicall

#chicagotrip #chicagogetaway #travelingmomma #momtravel #unfiltered Being a single mom doesn’t mean my life stopped. It doesn’t mean my dreams paused. It doesn’t mean adventure is off the table. For a while, I thought I had to “wait.” Wait until things were easier. Wait until I

As a second time mom (5 Years since my first was born), this registry list was short but hold some new things I didn’t think to have for the first time around. 1. Willow Breast Milk Storage When I first saw this, I knew immediately that I had to get it. When I was pumping on the go with my firs
