Countdown to Gatlin’s arrival is officially on! I can’t believe we’re just weeks away. The third trimester has been a rollercoaster of inflammation and joint pain, but thanks to @apothekaryco Claim to Flame, I’m feeling more balanced. #AD Claim to Flame packs a punch with turmeric and black pepper, perfect for soothing those achy joints and supporting gut health! If you’ve been through the third trimester, you know the struggle, right? Plus, it’s got Astragalus and cayenne pepper to rev up metabolism, and ginger for smooth digestion. And can we talk about that creamy coconut milk? It’s the cherry on top of my morning coffee! Here’s my go-to gut healthy latte recipe to jumpstart your day: - A generous scoop of ice - 6 - 8 oz of your favorite iced coffee - 3 - 4 oz of your preferred milk (Nutpods creamer is my choice) - 1 tsp of Apothekary Claim to Flame - Sweeten to taste (I usually skip this) Instructions: Ice in glass, pour in coffee, froth milk and Claim to Flame, gently layer the yellow foam over your coffee, and enjoy! Head over to www.Apothekary.co and use code Brittany15 for 15% off orders over $75 until June 1st! With intentional movement and daily gratitude, Claim to Flame has become a staple in my morning routine. How do you kickstart your day?

Nothing beats lake days, especially when they’re paired with @funpopsofficial beverages! #AD We adore spending sunny days by the lake, fishing, and wading in the water, all while savoring the delightful FunPops drinks.

This has been the fastest pregnancy ever - at least it feels like it 🤪 I can’t believe I’m 34 weeks today! Now accepting guesses on when little man will make his arrival. Already having Braxton Hicks daily, he’s dropped significantly this week and hunger has decreased a bit. If I had to guess, it’s going to be June 14-17th. What do you think? (Official due date is 6/21) 🫶 #34weeks #34weekspregnant #thirdtrimester #pregnancy #pregnancyjourney #thirdbaby #babythree #momof3

Behind the curated smiles and perfectly captured moments lies a reality often hidden from social media’s spotlight. As I navigate the final stages of my pregnancy, I’m grappling with the weight of anxiety coming into play. #sponsored My journey with postpartum depression and anxiety has been a raw, unfiltered part of my life, one that many of you have witnessed from the beginning. Despite my efforts to conquer these battles, the ebb and flow of hormones have once again stirred up my anxieties, leaving me feeling overwhelmed by the relentless demands of my daily life. In the midst of this chaos, there’s one thing keeping me grounded: therapy. My therapist’s unwavering support serves as a constant reminder of my inner strength, reassuring me that I have the resilience to weather this storm. I know firsthand the hesitations that come with seeking help. The fear of judgment, the misconception that admitting struggle equates to weakness—it’s a narrative I’ve struggled with. However, it’s through vulnerability and seeking support that I’ve discovered my true strength as a mother and as an individual. For those who find themselves struggling in the shadows of their own mental health battles, know that you are not alone. @lifestancehealth offers accessible mental health services tailored to your needs, with professionals ready to support you on your journey towards healing.

For every comment, like, and share on @willowpump post from 5/6 - 5/9, they’ll donate $1 (up to $5k) to @paidleaveforall.
