This is why we’ve been eating so much and talking about our taco orders. 🌮 Send her all of the best pregnancy and baby products you recommend because she’s starting from scratch. Paulina also talks about how she and her husband and done having kids (yep, we’re talking about vasectomies again 🤣).
Pick of Tip of the Week
Paulina’s pick is such a mom pick. It can be a struggle to wake up her daughters for school in the morning, but Alexa has made it so much easier. You can customize the alarm to different songs, celebrity voices and sound bites. It’s simple and helpful and her daughters love it. Learn more here.
Bricia is asking for tips this week! She’s not a fan of the belly band during pregnancy (it just desnt work for her 🤷🏽♀️) but she is still looking for something she can wear as her belly grows. Let us know in the comments if there’s anything you recommend! Other tips she has for preggo mamas as she gets closer to her due date are rubber bands for her pants that her mom taught her, drawstring pants and long shirts. Her pick of the week is bio oil which is keeping her skin really hydrated.
