Life Lately – 24 Weeks
By mariapelletier on April 10, 2017I’m writing this on a Sunday afternoon while enjoying a snack and taking a break from all my housework. My energy has really picked up, I can go about 2 hours and then I need to rest, but then I can do another 2 hours. Before, standing in the shower for 5 minutes completely wiped […]
I can’t believe we are already 6 months pregnant! It’s starting to fly by now. I’m relieved to announce i’m finally feeling better – more energy and less nausea. I haven’t thrown up in at least 2 weeks! I still have food aversions (anything in the junk food category) and she really seems to be […]

My headaches have been getting better with […]
I can’t believe we are already at the half-way point and i’m 5 months along!! It’s actually flown by. Today we will have our 20 week anatomy scan and find out Baby P’s gender! Most people think it’s a girl because of how sick i’ve been. We are planning to do a gender reveal photo […]
So my post on Monday was a little too ambitious. I actually wrote that post a few days prior and set it to upload as we had company coming into town. I was feeling pretty good throughout the weekend and started getting a little too confident. Sunday I had a McDonalds sundae and in-n-out burger […]
Baby Registry & New Mom/Baby Books
By mariapelletier on February 23, 2017I’m writing this post from my bed… which is where i’ve been the last 5 days in a row. I was starting to feel better the last few weeks but seems like i’ve taken a turn for the worse. If i’m bed-ridden I won’t throw up. I also just have absolutely no energy. If I […]
