Some of my favorites.

Still nothing to report on TTC. I'm still waiting for my next cycle to begin. So, in the meantime, I would like to post a few of my Etsy favorites! (All maternity/baby/pregnancy related, of course.)

• Belly bands. I didn't have anything like this with my first pregnancy... but I think they would come in handy. Esp. in the beginning when you're too big for regular jeans, but the maternity jeans are still too baggy.
• Fisherman Wrap Pants! Pregnant or not... I want these. How incredibly comfortable do these pants look?
• The Purple Pantry has some of the cutest (and inexpensive!) baby hats!
• Whole Grain Baby... adorable ADORABLE clothes!
• Damask slings by Small Wish. I really really wish I had known about the great world of slings with S.J.
• Jelly Bean Apparel has some of the best maternity shirts.
• Kathy Neilsen has some great baby hats, too!
• Posh Pads are great for nursing Moms! They are organic bamboo nursing pads that come in some really great colors!
• I just had to get these in here... pickle and ice cream earrings by Modern Mama.
• This felted pregnant mama doll is just great. I love everything that Enchanted Gypsy does.
• The Spoiled Mama has some great natural care products for Mamas and Mamas-to-Be.
• Belly to Baby is another store that specializes in natural care products for pregnancy and beyond.
• I've seen this done on TV and think it would be a lot of fun--Pregnancy Belly Blessing Henna Mehndi Kit.

Those are a few of my favorite things. :) Hope you liked them, too!

It begins here.

My first entry into my maternity/pregnancy blog.

But I must admit. I'm not pregnant... yet.

But we're working on that.

Right now we're in the beginning phase of planning... charting... and lots and lots of praying.

We know for sure that we're going to actively start trying in September. Until then it isn't a good time for me to be pregnant... because being pregnant means I'll be sick (more than likely... since I was with our first child)... and unable to finish school like I need to. But once my final classes are over in the end of August, it's on.

Until then I plan to get familiar with my cycle by charting... eating better (wean myself off of caffeine, primarily)... starting my prenatal vitamins... and just generally getting my body ready to grow another human again.

Fun times are ahead, kids... fun times. :)
