When it comes to dressing your body post pregnancy, it’s like a whole new world of trying to figure out what to where, how to get dressed in less than 10 minutes before the baby wakes up, and try to feel put together when you’re running on minimal hours of sleep.

5 Tips for Overcoming Postpartum Anxiety Naturally (Without Medication)

Hey there, mama! I’m so glad you’re here… because that extremely happy, strangely emotional, and sometimes downright overwhelming time we like to call “postpartum” can feel so amazing and so lonely all at the same time! And it’s totally ok to feel that way!

I have struggled with some form of anxiety my entire life (I was totally that little kid who was so afraid to leave my mom’s side + the first-time mama who had to check 700 times per day if my baby was still breathing!)… can you relate?! Because while I’ve learned so many good ways to deal with anxiety over the years and even gotten to the place now where I can eliminate it almost completely from my everyday life, having had anxiety in the last still puts me at risk for dealing with postpartum anxiety.

I definitely experienced postpartum anxiety with my first baby & so I made sure to set myself up for success when my second baby was born this past spring. I made a few changes to my new mama routine to help deal with any postpartum anxiety that might try to creep back in the second time around… and it definitely did try to creep back in.

Today on the blog, I wanted to share what’s worked for me & hopefully a few of these tips will work for you, too! Here are the 5 things that have helped me in overcoming postpartum anxiety naturally.

3 Newborn Sleep Schedule Tips (That Had My Second Baby Sleeping Through the Night by Six Weeks Old)

3 Newborn Sleep Schedule Tips (That Had My Second Baby Sleeping Through the Night by Six Weeks Old)

Baby, Mom Life

Ah, newborn sleep. It’s such an emotional topic & I have start by saying I am in no way an expert on this topic… I literally held my first-born baby for every.single.nap until he was over 12 months old! I’m. Not. Kidding... So needless to say I was a total skeptic that a newborn baby could (or even should!) be sleeping through the night by 6 weeks old.

But honestly, baby girl (baby #2) was actually sleeping through the night from 10pm to 5/6am at just 5 weeks old already… and I don’t say that to brag… I say that as a mama who once held her newborn baby boy (baby #1) for every.single.nap until he was over 12 months old. So I thought I would share the 5 things I did differently with baby #2 that helped me teach her how to sleep through the night by six weeks old. No crying involved. Well, except for my happy tears from a full night’s rest.

When I was pregnant with my first baby, I totally expected to look pregnant by 12 weeks along but barely even had a baby bump yet! I didn’t really start to “show” until I was 18 weeks along and was well into the second trimester before I needed maternity jeans. However, the second time around was a little different! I felt like I was “showing” the minute I got a positive pregnancy test… well, that might be a slight exaggeration ;) but whether it was just some bloating or a little tiny baby bump, my body sure responded differently with pregnancy #2! So whether you’re trying to hide the tiny, little baby bump before announcing the BIG NEWS after the first trimester, or you’re totally comfortable showing off that growing baby belly right away, I’m sharing 3 fail-proof maternity outfit ideas to keep you feeling cute AND comfy during the first trimester of pregnancy (from the day you find out you’re expecting to somewhere around 12-14 weeks along!)

“You’re so beautiful.” “I love your hair.” “Oh my gosh you’re so tiny.” “You always have the cutest outfits.” “I love those shoes.” “How are you so dang pretty?”

I used to hear these comments a lot. My friends. My mom. My grandma. Strangers at the grocery store. Everywhere I looked people were complimenting me on how I looked and what I wore.

3 Hairstyles to Hide Dark Roots (no hat required!)

3 Hairstyles to Hide Dark Roots (no hat required!)

Adrianna Bohrer
Hair, Style

CONFESSION: I haven’t had my hair colored in almost ONE YEAR. That’s 12 months of growing out my hair without any touch ups, highlights, lowlights… nothing.

This definitely wasn’t my original plan last spring when I learned about a fancy little thing I had called “chemical sensitivity”… basically when I’m exposed to harsh chemicals — like traditional household cleaners or hair color — my body reacts with a not-so-pleasant onset of crazy symptoms. Think: lightheaded-ness, nausea, bloating, itchy arms and legs. inability to regulate my body temperature, etc.

So while I’ve been working through an immune system treatment over the past 12 months to heal my body + eliminate its reaction to these chemical exposures, I’ve just decided to avoid getting my hair colored all together! Sometimes I seriously can’t believe I even made it this far… I used to get my hair colored every 10-12 weeks for years!

So as you can imagine, throughout the past 12 months I’ve definitely had my fair share of trying different hairstyles to “hide” or rather disguise my fake roots to look natural + effortless and almost like I intended them to be that way… I’m to a point now in the growth process that the more blonde part of my hair is long enough to balance out the darker roots & it almost looks like an intentional ombré. But it took a while to get there & so I wanted to share all my tips + tricks I learned along the way this past year & share 3 hairstyles that hide dark roots on the blog today!

How to Wear a White Tee in the Winter

How to Wear a White Tee in the Winter

TRUTH: I used to gravitate away from wearing anything white during the winter months. Not because of some silly “no white after Labor Day rule” but because I tend to be more pale during the winter months & was afraid the lack of color might wash me out. But then I started seeing so many white tee outfits pop up again & again on my style Pinterest board & it got me thinking… so I dove into trying out my fav white tees in the winter & experimented with different outfit ideas to see if I could make the basic white tee work just as well during the winter months as it does during the warmer seasons. And here’s what I found…
