My TTC Pick Me Up List 2014-2015

Hello. Welcome to my Trying To Conceive "Pick Me Up" List.
Click the links for the treats I've started or completed.

If you've been following along in my blog, then you already know, I am a stay at home mom of two, trying to conceive her third child while breastfeeding.  I also was diagnosed in 2009, prior to conceiving my two children that I had Stage 1 Endometriosis. When our second was between four-six months we had a strong desire to begin working on growing our family. Since I practice extended  or full term breastfeeding, my menstrual cycle did start until 3 days shy of 11 months postpartum. I am just finishing my tenth postpartum cycle.

Frida Mom for Post Laparoscopy Care

  My Frida Mom Basket for Post-Laparoscopy Care. Why I Love the Frida Mom Line (Even Beyond Motherhood) One of the things I’ve really come to appreciate is how versatile the Frida Mom line is—not just for new moms, but for anyone recovering from abdominal surgeries, such as laparoscopies for endometriosis. After surgery, comfort and gentle care are everything. That’s where the C-section recovery underwear comes in. Even if you haven’t had a baby, the design makes sense—when you have incisions on your abdomen, you need something soft, high-waisted, and non-restrictive. These disposable underwears are a lifesaver compared to standard disposable Depends. The big difference? You can build your own pad system . Start with the underwear. Add a menstrual pad.

I also want to mention the liners pack...

Recovering from my laparoscopy has been a journey, and honestly, some days are more uncomfortable than others. Over the past week, I’ve found a few products that have made a huge difference in how I feel—both physically and mentally. Here’s what’s been helping me get through it: 1. Body Wash That Feels Safe Before and after surgery, I wanted something gentle that still felt clean. I’ve been using Dove Antibacterial Body Wash , and it’s been perfect.

Underwear That Actually Works I never thought I’d get excited about disposable underwear, but Frida Mom Disposable C-Section Underwear has been a game-changer. They’re soft, supportive, and don’t press on my stomach—exactly what ...
