I’ve been doing a Q&A today on my stories and go

I’ve been doing a Q&A today on my stories and got lots of questions about how I’ve handled the changes my body has gone through during pregnancy or how I’ve dealt with stretch marks. Honestly, the journey has had its moments where I just cried and didn’t know how to embrace the changes. I’ve had many months where I just didn’t feel myself and that felt mentally really really hard. And then about 2 weeks ago- I woke up one morning to stretch marks sprouting for the first time in my pregnancy. Truly overnight I got them and I’d be lying if I said the overnight change didn’t make me super emotional. I said to a friend recently that your body doesn’t fully belong to you throughout this process- it’s building and growing and you wake up different all the time. Danny constantly is reminding me my body is growing our little baby girl and that’s so beautiful and more meaningful than my superficial body. It’s a shared home. And I find myself constantly needing to remind myself that I am so much more than this body. And sometimes I feel disappointed in myself that I have to remind myself this- but I’m only human. I have my days where I don’t feel great and am super hard on myself. Pregnancy has def made some of those days feel a bit harder ❤️ with lots of tears. I’ve been meaning to write this for a bit and just felt the word dump of feelings wasn’t enough. But I hope my vulnerability helps some of you who may be on a similar journey To me feel less alone ❤️

Some spring outfits from last year 💓 what’s your fav? I loveeeee a lounge set omg. I feel like I forgot until I looked at these! I’m also curious for those of you who’ve been pregnant- did you miss your bump? So many have been asking me if I will and I’m curious to see! My back right now says no though 😂❤️

Every night that we go out and do something fun I’m like omg what if this is the *last* time before we are parents?! 🙀 And if the @strangerthingstv world premier of season 4 is that night- it was freaking epic 🥂🙌🏻 even danced until midnight 💃🏻
