By Lisa Linh

The secret to making sure that you’re not being asked where something is every 10 minutes? Create a key + map layout for everyone to reference, especially if you have things tucked away in drawers, and despite having each drawer labeled. Just like how every book has an index, our baby’s dresser also has one that’s posted right on the wall (next to the dresser). The key indicates which drawer has what in it, is color-coated, and laid out accordingly from left to right (if you are standing in front of the dresser). From the diapers and wipes to the baby carrier and onesies, there is a place for ..read more

Turned our small apartment closet into a dressing area in our nursery with the help of renter-friendly wallpaper and this beautiful Lulu & Georgia dresser, which unfortunately is sold out but here’s a similar one. If you’re wondering why we didn’t utilize this closet as a place for his clothes, it is because he already has 2 larger dressers by his crib in the nursery. However, this 6-drawer dresser also stores some of his necessities, which I’ll have a dedicated post on how I organized his dresser soon. For this closet, our main goal was to make it a changing area but also we wanted to en ..read more

We can’t control the pregnancy symptoms we get nor how our body changes during pregnancy, but there are a few things in our control. These are the top 11 things that I reached for the most throughout my pregnancy that may help you feel a little more comfortable and make pregnancy a little easier. Note: these are things that worked for me so take what resonates with you and leave what doesn’t.

A Love Note to Those Struggling in Pregnancy
By Lisa Linh

Some people enjoy their pregnancy, some people don’t and I am one of those who has found pregnancy to be one of the most challenging times of my life (thus far). I know motherhood will bring its challenges as well, but until I experience that, I’m going to say pregnancy has been the hardest thing I’ve had to go through so far. In the last 7 months, I’ve been to the hospital twice for emergency visits. Fortunately, both of those visits did not affect the baby in any way. The first trimester was filled with morning sickness, heartburn, acid reflux, food aversions, fatigue, and lots of hormones ..read more

Ways to Make a Small Bathroom Feel Bigger
By Lisa Linh

8M ago
The last time we refreshed the bathroom was a few years ago, and honestly, it’s gone through a few changes here and there over the years mostly with the rugs and plants so I didn’t think it was worth updating this post. Side note: the tree right outside our bathroom window has also grown and extended onto our side, which means the lighting isn’t as great as before and I’m patiently waiting for our landlord to have it trimmed again. We are currently in nesting mode and preparing for our baby arriving in April, and with a tiny bathroom, the biggest question we had was “Where will all his stuff ..read more

My Pregnancy Safe Skincare Routine
By Lisa Linh

Yes, pregnancy-safe skincare products are a thing and while not everyone may take this into consideration (or care), I have personally always been an advocate of knowing what is good for my skin. As someone who suffered from terrible cystic acne in the past, clean and quality skincare is one of the things I care about a lot but it can be confusing to know where to start. So this post is to help you vet through your skincare products and hopefully help guide you in the right direction. When I found out I was pregnant, the first thing I knew I had to stop using was retinol. According to Healthl ..read more

Things I’ve Learned through Pregnancy
By Lisa Linh

We’re at the last week of my second trimester and it’s amazing how time can go by so slowly and so fast, all at once. With the third trimester just around the corner, I wanted to share some things I’ve learned through pregnancy (so far). I’m sure I’ll have more to add to this once Baby Sole is here, and third trimester wraps up, and postpartum begins. After all, every week honestly teaches me something new or at least provides an alternative perspective that I didn’t think about before. Things pregnancy has taught me so far: to celebrate the small wins in life like those rare nights when I ..read more

Navigating Gender Disappointment
By Lisa Linh

9M ago
Gender disappointment is a real thing and you should not be ashamed if you are or have experienced it. When I found out that Baby Sole was a boy, I didn’t have a real reaction to it. I felt a bit numb and sad; disappointed in the fact that my idea of having a baby girl wasn’t coming true. When I found out I was pregnant, the only visualization I had saw myself as was a mother to a daughter. I am the oldest of three daughters, grew up with only sisters, and do not know how to be a boy mom so I wanted to stay in my comfort zone. But the Universe always gives you what you need, not always what y ..read more
