Being pregnant with my second child while attending to my soon to be 5 year old is definitely no walk in the park. While I thought it would be a breeze considering I am already a mommy, I had something else coming my way.
I learned very quickly during my first trimester that all pregnancies are very different. I had zero to no energy or will power to do anything. Any meals I had would soon be flushed down the toilet against my will. I soon found out from my Dr. I was dehydrated and anemic.
Let's not forget I also had my 4 year old to take care of, my partner of 8 years and father of my kids and also a full time job as a supervisor at a bank. My days were far from relaxing! Nonetheless, I managed to hold up and pull through the best way that I could.
Today I am 30 weeks & 5 days to be exact, overjoyed at the fact that in just 2 months I'll be a mommy of two boys!
Oh I love love love this! And that picture is as beautiful as you baby ❤️

Thank you bro❤️
This is wonderful writing! It's real, honest and straight from the heart. I enjoyed reading and best wishes to you and your family. The art is beautiful also, is it your work to?
No the art isn't mine but I loved the raw detail in it.. thank you so much for your feedback I appreciate it so much
Congrats! Morning sickness & fatigue gets the best of me some days. Take some ginger , it helps really well with nausea.
How would you suggest I intake the ginger? I ask because a lot of my mommy friends have told me the same thing and suggested tea, but believe it or not I hate tea so much lol.
Lol , I know how you feel . Personally , I am not a fan of how ginger tastes. You can find crystalized ginger cubes at your local Whole Foods or organic stores if you don't have a Whole Foods around. They are a life saver specially when I get nauseous in the car. Also try tamarind pods which are good for your stomach and have added blood benefits as well.
