Question & Giveaway. How do I use a Moses Basket? We know, there are so many different products that make things confusing. Especially for first time Mamas. Moses basket bassinets are used to keep baby near during the early days when they need you the most. Yes they are safe for overnight sleep. This is before they transition to crib or can be used at the same time as a place to rest throughout the house while you get things done. The Bedding set comes with a soft basket liner and waterproof sheet (pictured). The liner secures to the sides, no loose fabric. The close environment makes baby more comfortable and at night it can sit in a stand right next to your bed. Do you have any questions about our different bassinet options? Ask any helpful questions in the comments, one person will win a $75 store credit. #naturesbassinet
#DearBabylist: "If you need me I’ll just be here, in my room, stuck in my jeans forever now.
.
.
Trying on my pre-pregnancy jeans is such a roller coaster. Like. You know there’s such a slim chance they’re going to fit, you’re not truly convinced they’re going to fit, but this part of you is just sitting there convincing yourself it’s a good idea and to go for it anyways.
.
.
After my first pregnancy it crushed me that my body didn’t just ‘bounce back’ and I couldn’t slide right back into my clothes. I was so naive to what my body had done, had gone through and still had to go through. I also went on to eat terribly, sit around my house inactive and depressed and gain a crapton of weight.
.
.
At the end of the day I’m comfortable in the postpartum body I’m living in. My body has gone through so much these last few years. Am I as confident as I could be when I get dressed? No. But I know that it’s a temporary state of recovery. That every day, week and month I get closer to a daily routine that leaves the girls less dependent on me and grows closer to my independence.
.
.
Maybe one day my butt will once again be small enough for my jeans. Maybe I’ll have this junk in the trunk forever and need a new pair. My weight doesn’t define me. A number on a scale or a size of jeans doesn’t define me. My self confidence does." - @beingthismama
In case someone needs this today: Your weight does NOT define you. Your pre-pregnancy jeans do not define you.

“We are now brave enough after having two kids to show them the world. We took awhile to get back out there after being scared of everything and encountering so many problems having our kids. We are getting back out there to showing our kids the adventures Katie and I crave! Hiking has been one thing we love doing with the kids. We have been babywearing since our kids were born and they love seeing the world from their safe little packs. We amaze everyone we see on a hikes by wearing the kids.
Traveling with kids is definitely possible once you set your mind to it and the kids love it! The kids also keep us in shape by being worn! This summer we are taking them out of the country for the first time. They will see Canada, Spain, Italy, and France!
We are taking our kids on as many adventures as we can because we want them to see the beauty in the world. Although the world can sometimes be unkind to us, there are so many amazing things the world has to offer. Kids come to us with a blank slate. My wife and I just want to fill our kids' minds with love, wonder, amazement, and kindness.” - @babybaileymamadrama --

“We ended up with four viable embryos. Now, would one of them take hold in a 61 year old uterus that hadn’t held and created a child in 31 years? The embryo transfer happened so quickly, but the days after were slow and long. We had to wait five days to do a pregnancy test. .
.
On my 29th birthday, we took the pregnancy test. It was positive, Cele’s first granddaughter was officially growing inside of her. The pregnancy went smoothly. But the doctors were cautious because, in their words: “there is no textbook on 61-year-olds being pregnant”. .
.
We were able to be present in the room during her labor and birth. It was the most powerful experience of my life. I watched my daughter take her first breath and I held her that day, skin-to-skin, and made the sincerest promise I have ever made. I promised to take care of her the best I could. I promised to love her as tenderly as my sweet mother had loved me. Our adventure together as a family of three has begun.” - @ephemeral.elliot | photo: @arielpanowicz

“Life with three toddlers is busy! Bored is not a word we use in this household as there is ALWAYS something going on! It honestly I can’t imagine life any other way. It’s such a special and unique thing to watch three children the same age grow up together. .
.
They are without a doubt the best of friends, and are so cute to watch as they explore the world. Our three littles have radically changed our lives and our hearts and not a day goes by that we don’t feel so thankful for these three little blessings. .
.
Thank you so much for following along on our journey today. If you have any questions about our story or our fertility journey I would be honored to connect with you. You can find me @raffinee Happy Pride Month! ♥️, Raff”
