April 29, 2013 by Alanna Leave a Comment

When are you due? Look how big you are! You're pregnant with #2; that's exciting/stressful! These in addition to a myriad of other comments and questions are what I have to deal with on a daily basis.

it’s all good for dinner

April 24, 2013 by Alanna Leave a Comment

Most recently, the part of my day that gives me the most anxiety is dinner. L'il E and I get home from work/school around 5:30 and from that moment on the restaurant is open for business.

Nothing to wear

(Image source) I know I'm supposed to feel beautiful and appreciate my pregnant body, but at 27 weeks I look at myself and see a beached whale (sigh). As I try to squeeze my over sized belly into my pre-maternity shirts I realize that it's time I do some serious shopping. When I was pregnant … [Read more...]

Time to indulge

April 8, 2013 by Alanna Leave a Comment

Your first pregnancy is the most indulgent time of your life. Sadly I can't say the same for round two and I expect it just gets worse for round three and (gasp!) round four. In my first pregnancy I took amazing care of myself. I slept when I needed to, put my feet up when I was feeling fatigued, … [Read more...]

Hiyaaa! This is Beyond the Bump and I'm so excited to be blogging here. Like many of you reading, I'm a crazy busy lady.
