Truth : 🤦‍♀️ I’m 9 months pregnant & I feel miserable. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I hate even saying these words out loud & putting it out there because I’ve prayed for this baby for so long — but I forgot how hard & uncomfortable the last month of pregnancy REALLY is.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I don’t feel beautiful right now or inspired. Most of my days are spent in my husband’s tees, maternity leggings, & compression hose. Not a look that will inspire you guys 😂 I’ve been too MIA from our social media too — but that’s OKAY. Do you know why?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because no one has 365 days of feeling absolutely inspired, beautiful, or like you can show up. We all NEED a break & it’s fine (even really healthy) to give yourself that grace 👌🏼 Enough of the perception of perfection. Enough of feeling like you have to look, talk, or act a certain way in order to show up. Authenticity is what’s so beautiful. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My energy the last couple of weeks & for the extended future are going to be focused on this little guy & his soon-to-be sister. Right now, they’re my inspiration. They’re my beauty. They’re the ones who need those last ounces of energy I have during the day the most ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Don’t get me wrong — I’m so ready to get back in front of the camera more & get back at it...but only after I’ve enjoyed this baby and all of her snuggles 🥰
