Really trying to embrace the fact that there’s no real concept of time in the newborn bubble. It’s a slow, simple summer for us over here 🥺🫧🌻
Baby’s first lake trip 🐟🌲🪵 2022 postpartum me would’ve neverrrrr imagined packing up and traveling with a 5 week old. Now there’s just another little human along for the adventure 💛
HOT TAKE 🔥 Don’t come for me 😂 These are just a few postpartum things that I personally didn’t find necessary. If they made your postpartum experience easier, love that for you !! 💕 Every recovery is different, and this is simply what worked (or didn’t work) for me. What’s one PP item everyone raves about that you could’ve skipped?!
No big trips or plans this summer just embracing all the mundane things with our new party of 4 ✨☕️
Longtime favorite, now even better ✨ I’ve been reaching for the @ogee Crystal Contour Collection for years & it’s become a no-brainer on busy mornings when I have limited time to get ready. Everything I need is right there in one set, the formula blends so effortlessly, & it gives me the glow I’m craving after a long night.
Type SET & I’ll get you a Iink + my code JENNA-OGEE for 15% off 🤍

I had my sweet babe at 39+3 and here is my POSITIVE birth story…💫🧸🩵 My water broke but contractions never started on their own (didn’t even consider this scenario!?) so I needed a little Pitocin boost to get things moving !!
One of the biggest surprises was my epidural. With my first birth, I had an epidural but still felt everything. This time was completelyyyy different !!
My labor didn’t unfold exactly how I expected but it ended up being SUCH a positive experience ✨
This chalk paint actually kept Demi busy for so long !! 🎨 And honestly, it was kind of therapeutic for me too 😂
Even though I’m still recovering at just 2 weeks postpartum, I’ve never been so happy to have my body back and not be pregnant anymore 🦋☕️💛 My recent pregnancy reallyyy humbled me 😂 Being able to move, bend, get off the couch, and keep up with Demi again feels pretty amazing !!
Where you can find me all summer long 🫶🏼🤱🏼🌼 Being a second-time mama has given me a completely different perspective. The 1st time felt scary —the nights made me anxious, every unknown felt big, and I spent so much time googling & wondering if I was doing everything right. This time there’s confidence & so much joy. Living for slow mornings, porch feeds, fresh air, and all the little moments that go by too fast. 💫 And if we’re rating experiences, Josh and I both agreed baby #2 has been a solid 10/10 & a muchhhh easier adjustment thus far.
On maternity leave with my sweet babies and making it a goal to find magic in the little things this summer like homemade ice cream sandwiches 🧚💫🪄🌞👩🏻🍳🍪🍦
Turns out, I worried about the age gap for nothing 🥹🎀🦋

Nine months of wondering, waiting, and talking about her baby brother… 💫 Watching Demi become a big sister has been one of the sweetest moments of our entire lives. My heart is a PUDDLE !!!!! 🥹🩵🪿🎀

One week wrapped up in baby snuggles and learning this new rhythm together 🤍🫧 Watching our family step into this new chapter has already brought so much love and joy into our home and is a reminder that some things unfold exactly when they’re meant to 💫
Our sweet baby boy, Colt Edward Taylor, entered this big world on 5.20.26 at 9:07am weighing 7 lbs 15 oz 🩵🧸🫶🏻 Had dreamed of this chapter for so long & am soaking up every snuggle, stretch, smoosh, sound, & smell of the newborn bubble 🫧🥹
Here’s what I’m packing in my hospital bag for baby #2 🩵💙🧸 I saw a video the other day that said *don’t worry about the hospital bag, you’ve got bigger fish to fry* & tbh that couldn’t be more true 😂🫣 Feeling prepared but also keeping it as minimal as possible.
(& no, I’m not bringing any postpartum supplies bc I used and preferred everything they gave me last time anyway + who knows what kind of birth I’ll have !! Maybe I’ll toss a diaper in the car for the ride home lol)
