Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing a roundup of som

Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing a roundup of some prenatal favorites! Since the experience of being pregnant during a pandemic has been way different than my previous pregnancies, I wanted to share some of the things that have gotten me
through so far:

💕If you are pregnant, sign up for Prenatal Yoga Sculpt with @carlajian! This is a virtual fitness class offered through @monicaandandy on Saturdays at 8am CST and it’s AMAZING! And it’s FREE! I’m not kidding when I say I look forward to this all week. To register, search “yoga” on the Monica + Andy website and all dates will pop up. It’s a mix of yoga & barre, and @carlajian is a fellow mama and amazing teacher. Needless to say, you’ll find me locked in my bedroom at 8am on Saturdays for the foreseeable future! For anyone going through IVF, @carlajian also offers a restorative yoga for you at 9am the first Saturday of each month!

💕@profemilyoster, economist & author of my favorite books on pregnancy & parenting, has a newsletter called “Parent Data” that is a MUST for all parents! You can subscribe on her website (emilyoster.net). Her newsletters are my go-to for important updates on pregnancy & parenting in the time of Covid - including updates on the vaccine during pregnancy & breastfeeding. Subscribe right now, you’ll be happy you did!

💕@bumble.baby (Chicagoland based!) is my favorite one-stop shop for every single question about pregnancy, post-partum, and baby care - it’s the best resource! I personally love watching their stories on Instagram, because they bring up topics that I wouldn’t think to ask about! They also have great product recommendations. I can’t tell you how many times they’ve talked about something and I’ve immediately added to my “cart”! They also do in-person and virtual consultations - we’ll definitely be signing up for infant & toddler CPR!

💕With my previous 2 pregnancies, I was working full time in an office. When I pulled out my bin of maternity clothes, I literally laughed out loud at how ridiculous they are for my current lifestyle 🤣 This time? I’ve been LIVING in @lululemon align leggings! They stretch magically to fit the largest pregnant belly, and bounce right back!

I know it’s February in Chicago, and snow is to

I know it’s February in Chicago, and snow is to be expected, but the past two weeks have been INTENSE! 🥶 We are ready for “warmer” temps this weekend, and are planning to get out of the house a bit – even if just for a walk. Enjoy these fun in-person & virtual events! Link in bio for all the details 👆

I hope that you have a great weekend with your family!

Kelly here, sharing some exciting news! Our family will be welcoming baby #3 in July, and we couldn’t be more thrilled 🎉 💕

You probably noticed that things went a little quiet around here for awhile - the nausea and fatigue have been no joke (and no surprise based on my previous pregnancies). But i’ve finally turned the corner, and I’m back and ready to go! Thanks to all of you for bearing with me 😘

We aren’t finding out the gender this time (with one of each, we’re excited for a surprise 🤷‍♀️), but we had the 20 week scan today and I almost caved!

These cookies are by the amazing Lincoln Park mama @cookiemamusia, and yes - they taste as good as they look 😍 Seriously, they are SO SOFT! I don’t know how she does it! Go check out her account to see some of the most adorable cookies you’ve ever seen! Not sponsored, just obsessed 💕
