🌺Let’s Talk About Big Families!! Has It Always Been Your Dream?? Do You Want A Big Family? Do You Have A Big Family?? I Love The Real, Raw Transparency From Chanel 🇩🇴] Expressed About Adding Baby Number 5 🧡
Chanel 🇩🇴]
・・・
Oh sweet baby number 5, I guess that makes me some kind of anomaly especially in a time when big families aren't the norm. This pregnancy came with so many new emotions. I was hesitant to share, I was afraid of the comments and judgements of others. Navigating these new emotions made me feel guilty for not fully embracing this blessing. Now that I've shared I would like to remind everyone to be kind, and simply normalize accepting differences even if we don't understand them. Be mindful that family planning is a personal choice and there shouldn't be a "socially acceptable" number of kids. Respect your friends that choose to have none, respect those that decide to be one and done, respect those who have two of the same gender and are done, respect those of us that have more than 3. After all, it simply doesn't affect you and there are so many reasons why people make the family planning decisions they do. Be Kind 🤍

💜Transitions Happen Especially When Preparing For A New Baby!!!
・・・
Seasons of Transition can be hard!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We are currently in the middle of several transitions:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ New Home
✨ New Baby On The Way
✨ Two Kids in School This Year
✨ New Projects And Growth In My Photography Business
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One thing I’ve learned when going through transitions is to give yourself GRACE. Everything won’t happen overnight. Everything won’t always go as planned. It won’t be easy every day. But, keep looking towards the future and taking it one day at a time and one day you’ll look up and you’ll have arrived.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s to praying this month is full of love, light, and blessings for you!

MOMMY UPDATE💕💕💕

18 weeks, 5 days:

PHYSICALLY: I gained 5 new pounds since my doctors appointment two weeks ago totaling 13 pounds total in 18 weeks. My starting weight was 151 & now I’m 164 lbs. My clothes are so tight and my shirts don’t go past my belly button 🤣My skin is clear for the most part. My back and b***y hurts all day long. My feet and ankles are starting to be swollen after standing or walking for too long. I have way more energy now and haven’t been sick as much!

MENTALLY: I feel happy and normal most days! I’m VERY forgetful though and my brain hurts when I think too much 😭Overall, I’m in a great mental state!

EMOTIONALLY: I’m able to control my moods better. I cry easily even with lashes on & I’m still getting angry fast when people do things I don’t like (I don’t show it though). I just need space sometimes lol.

APPETITE: I drink 2 liters of water everyday. I’ve been able to eat more. I usually eat cesar salads, chicken, ramen noodles and pasta. I can’t finish full meals so I usually eat small portions throughout the day. The thought, sight and smell of seafood makes me sick🤢 I’ve been craving Cheeto Puffs this week. Honey crisp apples are currently my favorite fruit and a daily must have! Antonio eats the apples too so we have to start buying more lol.

This pregnancy is doing me right so far. 😊

🧡The Baby Moon 🌙🥰 Did/Have You Planned One???

🌺
・・・
Babymoon Photo Dump👶🏾

We needed this.
We got the most sleep ever.
I got to watch my husband drink my fav cocktail while i drank mocktails.
He had honorary starter mocktails then went straight to the good stuff 🤣
Freddyb- picky eater enjoyed the restaurants i chose. He raved about lunch at Gianni’s (former Versace mansion.)
Traveling was a breeze , we even got to pre-board compliments of baby b.
2hr flight feet didn’t swell, we did our part to keep it safe and enjoy ourselves.

10/10 recommend babymoon for one last vaca with Bae before baby. Staycation or however you choose, get the time in with Bae before baby.

SN: everything from Target up a size 😜🤣

🧡Pregnancy Announcements Give Me All The Feels!!!

🧡
・・・
We did it, we did it Matthew.

Ok, in all seriousness; I’m so happy to finally be able to share my best kept secret with you guys. I’m feeling very empowered this morning. Us women are so incredibly strong. Getting through my first trimester has been no walk on the beach. It’s all cute and beautiful until you’re hovering over the toilet, suffering from pregnancy insomnia and over-all feeling so drained and exhausted because a new life is sucking the life out of you. Not to mention you have a two year older who still expects you to nurse him and chase him around all day. We’re also enduring a global pandemic and this country has gone mad, that alone can be tough. We always hear about how beautiful having a child is but we never hear about the moms who go through tough times and what those tough times are like, I’m here to be transparent. I am so grateful for Matthew, he has been my saving grace. I’m getting emotional because if I didn’t have him here, being so good to Jonah and I, buying me all the trash food my cravings desire and constantly ensuring I’m well, I’d be a mess but then again (I wouldn’t be expecting) soooo he’s doing his part. I’m excited to share my second journey with you guys and thank you so much for your kind words and love.

🧡Whew! This Doula Has Been Busyyyy. It Seems That Babies Are Coming Left & Right & Everywhere In Between Lol. It’s Been Fast Paced But So Rewarding. I Went From Only 2 Births From November 2020-June 2021 To Now Having 5 Plus One Client In The Hospital Right Now 😅 I Actually Helped 3 Families Welcome Their New Bundle Of Joy’s In A Week 😅 Who Knew Things Would Go 0 To 100 That Fast??
🍼The First Little Guy Was Born 6/30 Weighing 8 Pounds 4oz
🍼The Second Little Guy Was Born 7/4 Weighing 6 Pounds 5.6oz
🍼The First Little Lady Was Born Early (35 Weeker) 7/12 Weighing 4 Pounds 11oz
🎉In Total For Me That Makes: 4 Baby Boys & 1 Baby Girl.
🧡Each Taught Me Soooo Much & Opened My Eyes To A Lot In The Hospital Setting. My Heart Is Full & I Can’t Wait To Help My Next Family Through The Birth Process.
🌺Transparency: Juggling Overnight & Doula Work Has Been...Interesting 😅 They Both Require A Lot Of Time & Attention But The Best Thing I Did Was Include A Space In My Contract That Talked About Me As A Doula & What Exactly That Means For My Availability At Times. Also Shoutout To For Helping Me During This Time Of Learning & Transitioning.

🧡One Of The “Homework Assignments” That I Started To Encourage My Doula Clients To Do Is Write A Letter To Each Other About How It Feels To Bring A Baby Into This World With One Another. Something To Read Before And/Or After Baby Comes, Something To Read Over When Days/Nights Get Hard. This Repost From Reminds Me Of That. So Beautiful 🥰❤️

I never knew what it felt like to be treated as a queen. When i met you 5 years ago i completely judged you, (You’re from the same neighborHOOD I’m from and i know how those guys get down, so i thought). You proved me wrong! your consistency and persistency is what swept me off my feet last year. ( guys he was literally paying people to watch when i visit my cousin who reside in that neighborhood at that time so he can pull up and watch me from across the street talking to my cousin).
We became friends, you are my dawg, my lover, my praying partner, my business partner i don’t know how you manage to deal with my tough ways but i am so thankful for you and grateful to have you in my life. I love how you treat my son and Butchy you’re their role model ( a lot of male can birth a child but it takes a man a father like you to raise one). Thank you for being so patient with me, thank you for understanding my independency; you have taught me to be okay an asking for help and allowing a man to be a man. I thank you for venting to me and trusting me with your secrets. I thank you for allowing me to have your back and help you when you can’t do it all the time. I thank you for loving me the way im supposed to be loved by another man. I thank you for the man that you are.
I thank you for showing our kids what it means to be intimate( not sexually for the perverted minds lol) but to have both parents in the household who truly love each other and their voices matter to one another. I love you thank you for loving me the way that you do. Can’t wait to welcome our new addition into this world.
