I'm starting to get nervous now that April is approaching. I'm going to be a single parent so it's going to be rough.

rub lottsa cocoa butter into ya tummy to make it nice and supple to avoid stretch marks

and lottsa ginger tea if ya feel iccy

and try and enjoy it ..... its just a few months out of your life, and its something wonderful a true miracle

im a believer that the baby starts to learn as soon as its in the womb, and talking to it, trying to stay calm, and relaxing baths and massages all help make it a great experience

The shield is to help with the discomfort when trying to nurse, it can be a bit painful at first. It gets better, but my two sisters and I found this to eleviate any discomfort, especially if you start out using it before you ever nurse. Hope it helps you as much as it has helped all of us!!hug
