Five Things to do When You First Find Out You're Pregnant
So you just found out you have a little one growing in your belly and now you’re wondering, what do I do first?!
Here are five must do’s as soon as you see that positive test!
Buy Bio Oil and Burt’s Bee’s Belly Butter to set up a skincare routine for yourself.
Commit to taking your prenatal at the same time everyday. If you take Ritual, like me, you can take it anytime because of how they dissolve but it’s much easier to remember at the same time!
Get to walkin’ and squattin’. Yes, really. You’ll thank yourself later. I started walking 2-3 miles every morning and also purchased Kim Perry’s workout plan which has been one of the best decisions. Staying active has helped me feel great during this whole process… even though I can only make it about 1 mile in my third trimester before having to go pee!
Hydrate. Don’t have a refillable water bottle? It’s time to get one. If you want to stay extra hydrated, get these packets and throw one in your bottle daily, I love the guava and passion fruit flavors!
Buy a maternity dress or two, they’ll come in handy quicker than you think (mainly because time just flies by) and it’ll be nice to have them handy. Here’s one I loved from Amazon!
Oh and one more thing, don’t panic… even though everything flies by, you have more time than you think! Don’t feel like you need to have your registry done, nursery prepped, and be fully prepared before your second trimester, you’ll be just fine!
