A very pregnant Friday and back to our regular scheduled programming. Feels like a Monday but so happy the weekend is here 🤍 I am also in denial about finishing the rookie so pls be patient with me while I mourn this loss. I don’t know how to fill the void and definitely need another show to watch for the next few weeks and while post partum 🤣 #pregnant #nst #momof3 #mom #highriskpregnancy

... Read moreBeing very pregnant, especially when dealing with a high-risk pregnancy, demands a lot of physical and emotional resilience. I can relate deeply to the feeling of those long days filled with NST (Non-Stress Test) appointments, tracking fetal health with BPP (Biophysical Profile), and managing errands with a toddler in tow. It’s an exhausting, yet rewarding routine. One thing I've realized is the importance of carving out moments of downtime—even if it means simply ending the day in bed watching a favorite TV series like The Rookie. Finishing a show that you’ve grown attached to can feel like losing a companion, especially when anticipating the immense life changes postpartum brings. Finding a new series or show to dive into during pregnancy and after delivery has been a comforting ritual for me; it helps fill those quiet moments and distracts from any anxieties. Moreover, balancing motherhood of multiple children, including a 'mom of 3' dynamic, calls for patience and flexibility. High-risk pregnancy adds an extra layer of vigilance, but with proper medical support and self-care, you can navigate through safely. Remember to stay hydrated—fluids are crucial—and listen to your body’s cues. Making time for small errands with your older children can maintain a sense of normalcy, but don’t hesitate to lean on your support system when fatigue hits hard. Pregnancy, especially high-risk, is a unique journey for every mom, filled with highs and lows. Sharing these moments openly can ease the sense of isolation and help others feel supported. Whatever stage you're at, be gentle with yourself and celebrate every small victory along the way.
