"He's a great baby boy, very adorable, smart and very Handsome", I repeat this to myself everyday, it keeps me going through days like this. so for the past 2 weeks Jayzen (my son) has gotten extremely clingy, I mean I can't do anything without him attached to my side like a useless extra hand. He doesn't want to stay on the bed, if I put him to creep on the floor he gets bored after 2 minutes then start crying until I pick him up.he fell off the bed twice  already which was to date the scariest thing I have gone through since his birth so to avoid it happening again I try to keep him with me or on the floor at all times. 6 months and creeping has it's ups but it also has it's drawbacks,  he tries to follow me around all the time and this would not be a problem if only he would do it without the crying. I'm only human and I get annoyed very easily  ( something  I need to work on) so I would just pick him up and try to do what I have to with him. ...

If you already have a son then you know the struggles of finding very nice things for an affordable price, here in Jamaica its even more difficult and the reason for that is I really don't know I guess people like selling girl clothing more because the truth is female buy clothing more so that's a big market, most boys, on the other hand, do not care and sometimes if you don't notice will wear 1 jeans 3 or 4 times for the week. back to the struggles, I personally have had a hard time finding clothes for my son and because of that whenever I see something nice, even if I don't intend to buy clothes if I can afford it, I just buy it. I live in a house with only females so you can imagine my struggles for the first few months of my son's life, I only bought onesies and Pin-under because those are easier to find, but then a baby cant live in pin-under what about when he's going out I had to figure out something and I had to do it fast becaus...

  It was time to know the sex of the baby,  the past few months have been a rollercoaster but after the realization sets in, the new fight was with hormones and the changes that come with being pregnant,  before we did the ultrasound I always imagine the baby as a girl, that's all I could picture and that brought me some joy because I wanted a girl, her Dad named her Jayla and her middle name was Mia so I tell everyone around me and at work  how MIA  is, whenever they would ask. After 5 months, 19 week 3days to be specific it was time for the big reveal, it was a typical Saturday morning, we  already planned from weeks before that on this day I would do the ultrasound so as planned we drove to Oasis medical center and they were full  and BJ didn't want to wait so we  went to  Biological Medical center in Spanish Town .Luck was on our side because only one person was ahead of us.After checking in I was advised to drink 3 cups of water to ensu...

Prenatal Journey After finding out that you have another passenger on your bus the next step is to schedule your first appointment to check how far along you are, if you are like me you would have already known but this first visit it's still a very important one. Choosing a Prenatal facility was easy for me because I already knew where I wanted to give birth from the moment I found out I was Pregnant,  but if you are unfamiliar with your options you have to do some Google research or ask around " best referrals you can get is from people with experience" Even though I knew where I wanted to have my prenatal checkups done I was new to the procedures and process to get started so I had to ask for help, my friend had just gone through her own experience a few years back. We went to the clinic and ask a few questions and I learn a few things from that first experience like you have to be between 8-16 weeks to start the clinic and at that time I was only 5 weeks but I...

been over a year and this memory is still fresh in my mind ,my sister and i were at home just goofing around and out of the blues I said , I think I'm pregnant we laughed and  then she ask "how do you know ? " i told her because my tummy  looked a bit bloated plus I check my period Calender "which I always kept up to date " and I was 4 days late, she said ok well buy a test to be sure, later that same day I ask her to buy a test when she went on the road and she did and to No surprise I was!, i will never for get the date  October 4th 2016 the exact and only pregnancy test I took will be attached. At first when I thought I was pregnant I didn't cry nor was I sad but I was low-key praying I was not , I didn't want to be pregnant and I so wasn't ready for a baby I was only 23 living with my mom and whom still took care of me like I was a baby .i was in my prime and just started living like a young and free woman but after the test confirm that I ...
