I have some news to share Shop Me Chicas…. I’m having a baby!!!

My husband and I are beyond excited to be starting this new chapter in our lives. I have had a reasonably good pregnancy so far – only a little nausea, so I’m counting myself lucky!

So with this exciting news to share with you all, I couldn’t think of anything better to write about than my pregnancy essentials (well my essentials for the 14 weeks I’ve been pregnant so far!)

1. Be Enlightened Tropical Coconut Candle ($37.00)

I have never really been a candle loving girl, sure they were pretty to look at, but I wanted something with an amazing scent and I could never find exactly what I was looking for. Then I stumbled across these puppies. The scents are amazing. I can light one of these candles, and the smell goes through the entire house. My favourite is the Tropical Coconut.

2. The Baby Closet Long Sleeve Bodysuit($49.50)

These 100% cotton jump suits are so adorable. I know these aren’t really a pregnancy essential, but I haven’t been able to stop buying cute baby clothes since after I reached 12 weeks! I really should stop until we find out what we’re having!!

3. What to Expect Pregnancy App (Free)

This app is great. It tracks how far along in the pregnancy you are, and gives you a great reference as to how big your baby is. Our baby is currently as big a navel orange! It also gives you a weekly breakdown of what is happening with your body and the baby, and a daily tip.

4. Potato Patch Closet Dividers ($13.45)

I needed something to sort the different size of all the clothes I have been buying – and these are the cutest things ever. I purchased the woodland themed dividers, if these aren’t you style, there are many other designs to choose from.

5. Therapeutic Pillow Australia Cuddle Up Pillow ($99.00)

I did not know comfort until I bought this pillow! It is amazing. It hugs your whole body and provides such great support. I highly recommend this pillow!!

What are your pregnancy essentials? I would love any tips you have!

Stay Chic,

Melissa xx
