To be honest, I’ve been struggling with my walk with Christ. Sometimes I feel like my prayers fall on deaf ears. It’s hard for me to walk by faith. Reading the Bible has become so difficult. I know that I need to strengthen my relationship with God, but how do I do that when I’m so discouraged? First, I start talking to Him. I don’t recite a lengthy prayer. I’m honest with where I’m at. I say something like “God, I’m struggling. It’s been hard for me to prioritize you.” Then, I thank Him for all that He’s done. It’s something about a heart of gratitude that opens doors in my opinion. Lastly, I ask for Him to give me the desire to seek Him first. I ask Him to remove anything that is taking my attention from Him. It’s about consistency and patience when it comes to walking with God. He just asks us to come with an open and willing heart to do what’s right by Him. 🤍 #christiantiktok #christiangirl #biblestudy

For the past couple of months, I’ve been taking my dental hygeine seriously and here’s exactly what I do before bedtime 🌙 1. Floss- I alternate between using my water flosser & traditional floss. Right now I’m loving the floss by @Cocofloss! 2. Brush- I’ve been an electric toothbrush girlie for about 5 years and I’m never looking back! I use one by Oralb and @Colgate toothpaste. 3. Mouthwash- I’ve seen @TheraBreath all over socials & yall, believe the hype! You cant go wrong with this! #dentalhygiene #dentalroutine #flossing #cocofloss #colgate #oralb #therabreath

Told my stylist that I wanted something different & I never could have imagined that my hair would turn out like this! 😍 As a 4c girl, I didn’t think a curly cut would look good on me, but baby… I LOVE IT! Huge shoutout to my girl @texascosmo for taking such great care of my hair over the years here in San Antonio. Love you so much! 🫶🏽 #curlycut #4chair #4ccurls #4chairstyles

If you know me well, you know I don’t skip out on my skincare, but time isn’t on my side 😅. Nowadays I keep my skincare routine quick and simple which makes it great for when I’m in a rush or when I barely have energy in the mornings after waking up with baby all night long. Copy my quick skincare routine: Cleanser: @LaRochePosayUS Lipkar AP+ Gentle Foaming Moisturizing Wash Serum: LaRochePosay Vitamin C12 Serum Moisturizer: @Kiehl's Since 1851 Ultra Facial Cream Sunscreen: Kiehls Better Screen™ Miner-all™ UV Serum – Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50+ #morningskincare #skincareroutine #larocheposay #kiehls #postpartum

My first postpartum experience was challenging. Like many first time moms, I was anxious, exhausted and I felt lonely even though my husband was there helping me in every way he could. We were also so far away from our close friends and family. It was incredibly rough to say the least. This time around, I couldn’t be more grateful for our village. These clips only show a handful of people that have SHOWED UP for us after having IV. Home cooked meals, gift cards, texts with encouragement- everything has meant so much to us and has made a world of a difference. Postpartum has been so sweet this time around because of the support we have. I didn’t realize how much of a difference it would make, but wow… God is so good. One thing I learned to do this past month was ACCEPT help. I didn’t want to feel like a burden after my first pregnancy, so I didn’t ask for help or take any help that was offered. This led to a downward spiral to say the least. This time- my arms were open since the day we left the hospital and my friends/family poured out. Our hearts are full of gratitude 🤍 #postpartum #postpartumjourney #motherhood #fourthtrimester

Meal prepping for postpartum was a non-negotiable for me this time around! With our first pregnancy, we weren’t able to meal prep because we weren’t even in our own home! That’s another story for another day 😅 I’m so grateful for my best friend for coming over to help me prep some meals for postpartum so we aren’t eating take-out every day. We made breakfast sandwiches and three dinners that we can pop in the oven when we’re ready to eat them. Surprisingly, this only took about 1.5 hours and it was affordable! Lmk if you want to know what we made and what we plan to make next! ❣️ #thirdtrimester #postpartummealprep #mealprep #freezermeals

Is third trimester kicking your tail? Same sis, same 😅 But let’s talk about how I try to keep myself “comfortable” during this home stretch of pregnancy. 📌 Nausea- I cannot stand being nauseous! I didn’t expect for it to come back and haunt me, but here we are lol. Drinking lemon ginger tea as soon as I wake up in the morning really helps & I’m usually good for the rest of the day. 📌 Heartburn- Tums. Nothing more to say 🥲 📌 Insomnia- Okay, this has taken me for a loop! Baby boy is SUPER active at night and the only thing that’s helped is drinking Sleepy Tea about 30 mins before I lay down. If anyone else has tips for this, pls share! 📌 Lower back pain- As he gets heavier, my back has been screaming! Using a belly band and replacing my office chair with this yoga ball has been great for my back. Add them to your cart! 📌 Braxton hicks contractions- If you don’t know what these are, these are often referred to “practice contractions” that can occur during your second and most commonly, third trimester. It feels like your stomach gets super hard for seconds at a time, then relaxes. They aren’t painful either! I’ve had a lot of these & I find that drinking water or changing positions will make them go away quicker. 📌 Hip pain- My hiiiiippps are stiff yall! I’ve been doing a lot of hip-opening stretches to help relieve the discomfort and I’ve felt a huge difference since then. Anyone else having these symptoms?! Lmk if you have any other tips to get some relief! ✨ #pregnancy #pregnancyjourney #thirdtrimester #thirdtrimestersymptoms #pregnancyball
