Pregnancy brain is real, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise 🤣 My 2 cups of rice I SHOULD have just set aside ended up getting washed and soaked…the hubby looked at me like what are you doing?? Hahaha So…I turned it into rice pudding and it came out SO good! 2 cups rice 8 cups coconut milk I can coconut condensed milk 4 tbsp coconut oil Handful of cardamom seeds 1 tsp ground cardamom 3 tbsp cinnamon 1 tsp nutmeg Put all ingredients EXCEPT the coconut condensed milk in the pot and bring it to a boil. Immediately after turn it down to low and let continue to cook until you reach your desired consistency. (Some people like it creamier and therefore you would cook a little less.) Once your rice is cooked, add your can of coconut condensed milk, give it a good stir and then enjoy! It also freezes well so if you made too much (like I did), you can save some for a rainy day 🥰 #pregnant #ricepudding #jasminerice #recipe #pregnancylife #pregnancybrain #cravings #pregnancycravings #recipeoftheday

Who wants a taste test?? I had no idea there was a Swedish candy store a mile from us! And now we’re hooked…hubby doesn’t even like candy but he had us going back for more because they were SO good! #swedishcandy #pregnant #pregnantcravings #cravings #marshmallow #tastetest #sockerbit #candy #candyshop

This is literally so easy…you just need two ingredients, and time 🤣 So here’s the thing with vanilla extract - you can customize! I used vodka but you can also use brandy, bourbon, everclear, and rum! You just need to make sure it’s 70-100 proof. You could also make a single fold, which is done with 1oz of beans for every 8oz of alcohol. I prefer a double fold because it produces a stronger vanilla extract. It likes warmth, not cold, so keep it somewhere warmer 🥰 ALSO - there’s a great co-op group on FB that sells high quality vanilla beans for a great price! They always have different kinds of beans you can try - you buy per ounce, and they have never disappointed! It’s called Indri’s Vanilla Bean Group 🥰 #vanillaextract #vanilla #vanillabean #homemade #easyrecipes #easyrecipe #recipeoftheday #recipeshare #fridaymood #share

One of my new favorite products - powdered coconut water! First of all, what a space saver! I have so many coconut water jars (because I won’t buy it in the plastic or paper containers, they leach into your coconut water). It’s perfect for travel too. I brought one to NY with us and it helped us stay hydrated without all the extra waste. If you like coconut water, head to my Amazon under “New Fave Health Products” and snag a bag to try! You’ll love it 🥰 #coconutwater #savespace #lesswaste #hydrate #newfavorite #newreels #share #sharingiscaring #healthylifestyle #healthtips #tryitout

When you fly to NY to SURPRISE literally everyone haha We had so much fun and it felt SO good to hug family we haven’t hugged in years! But now we’re exhausted 🤣 Also - a red-eye flight is not fun, swelling is real when you’re prego, and cancelled flights suck. This is travel now?? Next time we fly private, there’s no other way! I wish I got more pics, but we were just so in the moment it was honestly nice not having a phone in my hand! #travel #surprise #familytime #longdistancesucks #ny #crosscountry #traveling #pregnantbelly #pregnanttraveler #exhausting #familytravel #prego #notenough #inthemoment

Little tip to stay on track with your health habits…fill little vials with things like Celtic sea salt or cayenne pepper and throw them in your purse.

This is an oldie but a goodie! Who does not love Cinnamon Toast Crunch! Well here’s an easy recipe to make it at home without all the preservatives! (I saw someone on TikTok make this and had to try — I added way more cinnamon, cuz who doesn’t love cinnamon??) Ingredients: 2 3/4 cup flour 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp cinnamon 1 tbsp vanilla 2 sticks cold butter 1/2 cup cold water 3/4 cup sugar 2 tbsp cinnamon Let me know if you try it out! And if you have any questions, feel free to ask 🥰 #cinnamontoastcrunch #cinnamon #homemade #healthy #healthylifestyle #healthyalternatives #cinnamon #tryitout #nontoxicliving #nontoxic #healthychoices #choicesmatter #treat #treatyourself #recipe #recipeshare #recipes

I needed more lotion and decided to experiment while I was at it…most are magnesium deficient so I thought this the perfect time to get more into my system! Tip: definitely turn it to a powder first lol I was waiting for a good 35 minutes for the magnesium flakes to dissolve. Powder would be more efficient! 1 cup cocoa butter 1 cup shea butter 1/2 cup coconut oil 1 cup magnesium flakes 1/2 cup honey Melt the cocoa butter, shea butter and coconut oil. Then add the magnesium. Take it off the heat and let cool a bit before adding the honey (we want to keep all the medicinal properties). Put it in the fridge and let cool and harden a bit before whipping with a hand mixer. Put in to jars and enjoy! #magnesium #lotion #homemade #homemadewithlove #cocoabutter #sheabutter #coconutoil #rawhoney #honey #magnesiumflakes #nontoxic #recipe #recipeoftheday

Now that I’ve shared a pregnancy tea to prep your cervix for labor, here’s a couple tea brewing tips…in case you’re curious why we don’t steep our leaves over the heat 🥰 Who loves a good cup of tea?
