7 things to do when pregnant



Hello there!

How did your New Year start? Have you done anything interesting so far? I have the feeling that 2018 will be very special to all of us. I cannot wait to see what it will bring me!
And if we are speaking about news, I have to admit that lately my FB wall has become full of wonderful announcements: proposals, weddings, baby bumps❤  Amazing! It is really great to see how many changes happen to  our lives.

I am one of those happy girls who has recently made a "baby announcement", and although I am so inlove with my baby bump I choose not to bother you with my hundreds of pictures that I take daily (Trust me, I could :D). However, I would like to mention that the passed months have been so special to me, I've started to do so many things which are linked to the pregnancy. I know that those who are pregnant will agree with me.

As you have probably already understood, today i will write about the things that could make a future mom enjoy even more this special period of her life. I hope you find them helpful.

I. Take care of your body and soul

- the doctor has probably already told you to EAT more fruit and vegetables and DRINK more water;
-wash carefully your fruit and veggies;
- take your vitamins (i took folic acid the first 3 months of the pregnancy)
-try to go for a walk as often as you can;
- sleep as much as you need;
-do not ignore your skin; it must be hydrated all the time. Use some oils or good body lotions for that;
- wear comfortable clothes!

II. Keep a journal
What memory could be more important than the day you found out about the baby? Or his/her first move? Write everything down because in a couple of years from now you will read your notes and will remember these unique moments.


III. Take pictures
Although you may not be the type of person who loves taking pictures, you can make an exception this time. Take as many pictures as possible because later you'll be happy you have them. I've actually found a beautiful diary for future moms where I can write all my thoughts, changes of the body, and even add pictures. It is lovely! I am sure that 10 years from now I'll be tearing up while I read it ❤

IV. Go to prenatal classes
If you have this opportunity - don't miss it! Especially if it's your 1st baby. Maybe you will do not discover America there, but you will have the chance to meet other future mommies who feel just like you. There you can ask questions and get prepared for the big day!

V. Do baby shopping!
Do not leave the shopping for the last days, you may not be feeling like walking around the stores looking for strollers and baby clothes.

VI. Talk to your baby
It is such an important thing to talk to him/her because they need to feel your care and love ❤

VII. Be positive!
Try to enjoy this period, and do not be worried about giving birth. It won't be easy, but it will be worth it for sure!

That's everything that I do, and i really enjoy it! In case you have something to add, feel free to let me know. I would not want to miss anything important!!!

I wish you all the best! May your pregnancy be easy and pleasant, and may all of your babies be happy and healthy!!!

Love,
Alina.

Did you know that? Italy

Hello everyone 😇, Italy is the country that has adopted us. I have been living here for almost 4 years now. It has its ups and downs but as a grateful daughter, I will not talk about any negative aspect here. This post is about the interesting facts you probably didn't know about Italy. I didn't know some of them either. And it was fun enough to discover it now. So here they are! Did you know that: 1. Italy has more volcanoes than any other country in Europe. It hosts all 3 of Europe's active volcanoes; 2. Pizza was invented in Naples. And it has recently become UNESCO's patrimony. Not the pizza as a product but the process of making pizza; 3. Italy is the 5th most visited country in the world. It welcomes around 46 million foreign visitors every year. 4. Italy is the 5th most populous country in Europe; 5. It has more earthquakes than any other country in Europe; 6. Italian is the closest language to Latin; 7. According to Italians, 17 is considere

Letter to Oliver

Dear baby Oliver, Why do you hurry  to grow up? Don't understand me wrong, I am glad and proud every time you do something new. Your noisy laughter melts my heart. The tender way you look into my eyes is just priceless. When you gently hold my hand it reminds me of all the times I have been thinking of you and waiting for you. Why don't you want to stop the time just for an instance? I wish I could keep the innocence in your eyes forever. I wish I could protect you from the bad. I want to see you growing a strong boy with a loving heart. I don't want you to get hurt in any way! Thank you for making me worth being called a "Mother". You have thaught me what patience is. You also help me understand that not everything should be about me. Your presence in our lives has made us better people. We can talk without saying any words. You are little but your heart is bigger than ours. There is room for everyone! This week you turned 8 months. 8 months of Joy, Love

Tips on how to improve your English

Hello English lovers! I dedicate this post to you! I am glad that we have something in common. English language has become my 2nd favourite language in time (after my native Romanian of course). Unfortunately there is a sad thing about foreign languages: if you don't practice you can easily forget them. Not everything, but most of the words and phrases. Since I don't have the possibility to speak English as often as I would want to, I have decided to work on my own. Therefore I found some interesting sources, where anyone could improve his English. Today I am sharing my list with you. I hope you like it. 1. Pot vorbi engleza/ I can speak English This  FB page  has been created by my FLEX friend Nicoleta Dvornicov. Although it is a course oriented mostly on beginners, I like to watch the video Nicoleta posts regularly. They are very accurate and informative ( with perfect English pronounciation). If you think this is too easy for you, than at least send this link to y
