QOTD:  Have you been doing anything different than usual to pamper yourself since your BFP?

Me:  I have been allowing myself more naps and the occasional massage!

  • No just eatting what I want when I want it and DH not saying anything about it. Our little boy is moving so that whats new this week. All is well over here.
  • I have been being a lazy pile for most of this pregnancy.  My house is a disaster and all I want to do is sit on the couch and go to bed at 7:30 so that's what I have been doing.  I'm still waiting for my second tri energy boost to kick in.

  • I normally do my own toes but, it's been uncomfortable lately to bend over for that long.  Last week I went to get a pedicure and it was heaven!  I'm planning to get one every two weeks now.

  • QOTD:  I've definitely been napping more.  And I'm not near as anal about cleaning as I used to be, mostly because I just don't have the energy!

  • Not really.  I did go for a pedicure last weekend. But I got those all the time before being pg.  And I got a massage when we were on our cruise 3 weeks ago.  But again, I always get a massage one night when we go on a cruise.

    That sounds like an awesome plan Jen!

  • QOTD:  Have you been doing anything different than usual to pamper yourself since your BFP?

    I take more naps than I used to. I also have a wonderful FI who believes every pregnant woman should get her feet massaged every night and a good long back rub at least once a week.  I take him up on it every time Smile

  • I've been allowing myself to eat what I want.  Before I would think before taking a cookie, but now, if I want a cookie, I take one!  I have also been letting myself be a bit more lazy when it comes to doing things around the house...but starting this fall, that is going to change.  With a baby on the way, I can't start to fall behind!  OH, and I plan to pamper myself with pedicures more often!!!

    I was napping a lot during first tri, but don't really need to anymore.

    I've starting doing yoga again, which maybe isn't really pampering, but it's very soothing.

    Um, do you think I can borrow him...or maybe he could at least give my DH some pointers!!!  Although, DH is good to me, he usually just sticks to the heard rubs though.

  • I rest more, that's for sure.  I've never had a manicure or pedicure, and I'm thinking about doing both, although I'm kind of intimidated because my nails aren't great.

    Let me know where to mail him to.  LOL.

  • I allow myself guilt free lazy time. I don't worry if I don't shower until the afternoon on a Saturday.

  • Well, I'm allowing myself to buy whatever clothes I want, which is not normal at all for me. So I feel pampered that I get to shop. I guess I pamper myself at night by lying on the couch and doing nothing, LOL!
  • So far nothing different... but I definitely, definitely want to start getting some prenatal massages! Oh and yes to the naps - anytime, anywhere, I can always find time for more zzzz's.
  • QOTD: Not really. I've just been allowing myself to take more naps and slack off on housework a bit when I'm feeling like I need to rest.
  • Not really. I did buy a new blow dryer. Lol
  • More manis and pedis for me!
  • QOTD: I had a mani/pedi last week and I think I need to start doing them more often!  I feel like a fat cat. . . I eat and sleep whenever I want. :)
  • Thanks for the well wishes, I am so excited.  The big appointment is at 2:30.  I will keep you all posted! 

    QOTD: I have just relaxed and I eat more without worrying about the implications.  I think I always ate super healthy prior but now I just allow my body to dictate food choices for me.  It's fun!   

  • I haven't really been doing anything different to pamper myself.
  • Not restricting dessert when I really want it!

  • naps naps and more naps!  i take one almost everyday.   i haven't been as up on doing chores as i should be-i consider that pampering myself!! :)    indulging in treats more often--ice cream, chocolate, french fries etc.
  • Pamper? What's that word mean? Lol. With a 1 and 2 y/o at home, if I can sneak a nap in, that's all the pampering I need. My husband, bless his heart, will paint my toenails for me once I can't reach, but so far I'm ok
