These utterly beautiful pregnancy and baby cards are from Family Nation who sell pretty much everything you could ever need for both when you're expecting and for when baby has arrived, including a totally gorgeous maternity wear range (which I urge you to take a look at if you're like me and you're currently on the look out for lighter maternity clothes for the upcoming (hopefully hot) summer days to suit your growing bump!).
I really don't remember seeing anything like these cards when I was pregnant with Ethan, but maybe I just didn't look hard enough?! Ether way, I'm so glad that I've found them this time around. They are just perfect to place next to bump or baby or even use by themselves for photographs. And you can date them too so you'll always remember the ordinary but ultra special moments and details alongside the date they occurred on. Once you've used them in photographs, you can then put them in with baby's keepsake book or box - which is exactly what I plan to do. :) They really are such a brilliant, special and fun idea!
I haven't actually got around to properly wearing these ripped maternity jeans that I brought from ASOS yet - whoops, but I brought them since my bump has outgrown my regular sized jeans. I had to buy these in a size 12 to feel comfortable in, even though I'm usually a UK size 8 or 10 in jeans. These are actually my first ever pair of ripped jeans and they're in a color I don't usually opt for too! But somehow I was really attracted to them!
Mustela kindly sent me some of their Mother and Baby products to try and though I haven't yet used the two baby products as baby is still currently cooking ;), I have been using the ultimate hydration moisturising cream on my skin and have to say it does leave my skin feeling rather soft and it is very quick to absorb - which is good when I'm in a rush and need to throw some clothes on quickly! We've been asked to stay on another year as Munchkin and Lindam ambassadors and again we gladly accepted their kind proposal! I'm very particular about who I choose for us to become brand ambassadors for but I have so much confidence in both Munchkin's and Lindam's products that it's sort of a no brainer for us. They sent us over a selection of products suitable for both baby #2 for him to use and play with later on in the year and also some bits for Ethan, which I'll show you in another post. This is their Magical Firefly Mirror, which actually Ethan hasn't put down since it arrived! It can go pretty much anywhere you'd like it to, but we're planning on putting it in the car to keep baby #2 occupied and calm during longer car trips. It plays lullabies, lights up and is reflective so baby will be able to see himself in it. I'm sure that he'll love the bright colours too!These Safari Strainers are recommended for 6 months+ so we're a bit of a way off of using them with baby #2 yet, but I've put this away for him to use in the bath or chew on when he's old enough. The soft edges will be ideal for him when we do get around to getting this out for him to play with.
On a side note: I cannot believe that I only have 15 weeks left of being pregnant! It really does seem to be flying past!
