My FIRST TRIMESTER | Pregnancy Must Haves

This will be a comprehensive list (well as much as I can remember) of all my favorites & must haves for my First Trimester in my pregnancy.  My First Trimester was July-October 2017.

First off, the obvious.  

Week 4 (like a day or two after my missed period)

1. Pregnancy tests.  I used the cheap 88cent ones from Walmart, when I got a positive on that I bought one of the digital tests... just so I could see the word "pregnant", honestly.

 

Pregnancy Surviving & Thriving!

It's been a really long time since I've updated, but I'm gonna post a little more now until babe arrives.

My pregnancy over all has been amazing. (Oh, yea! I'm pregnant -- found out in  July)
This was a very much wanted pregnancy.. and I'm so grateful for it!

When I cloth diapered - this is where I shopped

I cloth diapered my youngest for almost 3 years.
I LOVED it.

Aside from the fact that is saved me a TON of cash on disposable diapers - that wasn't the reason I started at all.  It was because my son keep having blow-outs in every single disposable I tried actually. A friend sent me some old diapers & I feel in LOVE.  More on that story → here.

Where I bought the rest of my clothing diapering supplies, might be useful if you're wondering where to start and find some great deals -- so here is what I know....



First I was gifted a bunch of Bum Genius diapers & like them, so I went on the hunt for more of that brand.

I found out they're sold on CottonBabies.com  and also on many other online cloth retailers like Kelly's Closet, Nicki's Diapers... then a million and one others (just do a quick google search and you'll see)

Cottonbabies - sell only Bum Genius brand but also some others.
This is a great place for NEW prints, and news on upcoming prints -- trust me, this will be a thing you'll be obsessed with eventually.

Kelly's Closet (affiliate link) - get site full of al kinds of diapers, earn points with orders toward free products!

Nicki's Diapers  (affiliate link) - my most fav.  Also, carries all diffrerent kinds of diapering supplies & brands as well as their own brand (super affordable & I love that when you buy their brand diapers then will donate one to a charity for every one purchased!!)  Also you can earn points toward free products!!

Why I'm selling AVON

I just became a new Avon representative!  

I'm overjoyed!  I haven't purchased from Avon in awhile, and back in Nov I started wanting to try some products and I figured why not just join? 

I've sold Avon in the past & loved it -- and while I'm not in the perfect position to sell right now (stay at home mom who really doesn't have a big circle of friends in this town), things are much different  than when I sold years ago -- of course ONLINE shopping is big thing these days -- you can shop my campaigns straight from your couch and while they still have biweekly campaigns, you can place an order anytime now. 

It's so exciting!

Also, signing up as a rep was super cheap!  ↓ (link below)

Did God not say that LOVE actually IS THE ANSWER?????

Enlighten me, Lord.

I'm a woman.  I care about women, I'm also a Christian I love GOD, I live through Jesus. I love other people.
I'm also an independent voter and I like to think I'm fairly open minded.

I didn't vote for Donald Trump.
I couldn't see past the person he is,...

I do believe in LIFE.  I don't like the thought of abortions, I would never have an abortion.
I don't think they should be illegal.  I don't think they should be used as birth control either.

Does that make me anti-feminist? I can see it from both view points.
