  • I’m grateful for this pregnancy every single moment of every single day. I will never not be thankful for the gift of motherhood. But that doesn’t mean I don’t miss things about pre-pregnancy like my cut off jean shorts, talking on the phone without getting short of breath, sleeping in any position I want, and..well, of course...tequila 🤷🏻‍♀️ #30weekspregnant with #brancifortebaby ❤️ New bumpdate post on the blog 💻 . . . #inspiredpregnancy #pregnantbelly #pregnancystyle #bumpdate #30weeks #maternitystyle #pregnantandperfect #thirdtrimester
  • What are some of the most desperate things you’ve done for pregnancy cravings? Yesterday I walked (read slowly shuffled) into town in the unbearable heat/humidity all in the name of Farmer’s Market fresh squeezed lemonade 🤷🏻‍♀️ #worthit I also dragged Zoe with me who was amused with it for about 5 minutes and then silently cursed me under her breath the rest of the walk. . . . #pregnancy #pregnancycravings #30weekspregnant
  • Anyone else feel like they are always on the go in the summer?! But trust me, #babybranciforte doesn’t let me skip afternoon snack time, so I usually make a pit stop at @DunkinDonuts - With their new #DunkinRun menu, there are so many great snacks to choose from for only $2! Right now I’m LOVING the Pretzel Bites, but of course if I’m craving something a little more sweet there is always the Fudge Brownie (which is also gluten-free!)😉🥨🍫 #ad #DunkinSummer
  • When even a hat can’t hide your frizzy, summer hair 🤷🏻‍♀️ Are you like, totally over summer or can’t get enough?
  • The most stereotypically thing about my pregnancy is how many pickles I eat. Hint: It’s a lot. But the important question is what kind of pickle is the best? Dill? Bread and butter? Sour? Half sour? Chips? Spears? Gherkin? 🥒 I have very strong feelings about this and the answer is Claussen Gherkin Garlic Dill. #brancifortebaby . . #maternitystyle #pregnantbelly #inspiredpregnancy #28weekspregnant #motherhoodmaternity #pregnantandperfect #pregnancystyle #bumpdate
  • Hello #thirdtrimester 👋🏻 I don’t know about this “glowing” everyone promised (unless you’re referring to my @beccacosmetics highlighter), but, cellulite, varicose veins, insomnia, and the need to pee every time I stand up...check on all those symptoms ✔️✔️✔️✔️ Getting very excited to meet this little man and anxious to know who he will be (besides a lover of late night dance parties, because that’s already clear). But, I also feel like it’s still 100 years until we get to meet him. Someone tell me the myth isn’t true and the third trimester is the longest? (You can lie to me it’s ok) #brancifortebaby . . . #28weekspregnant #28weeks #inspiredpregnancy #bumpdate #pregnantandperfect #maternitystyle #pregnantbelly #maternityphotography
  • These are a few of my ❤️favorite things ❤️ Today on the blog I’m rounding up what I LOVED in July including my current favorite skincare product, $16 sandals I’ve been living in, and how I avoid looking exhausted even with my pregnancy insomnia. Link in the bio, obvs 💁🏻‍♀️
  • Raise your hand if you’re convinced tomorrow is July 1st not August 1st 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ I’ll just be over here living in denial about it. For real, where is this summer going?
