    Your Body Gives You What You Can Take

    I am far from a good cook! My meals usually do not require heating and can be prepared in less than 10 minutes! Actually, I don’t even know if they can be called meals.

    How different is the second pregnancy?

    Some days are far from perfect! I know I should have slept more, ate better, exercised for a bit, and spent more time with Sky, instead of trying to finish my to-do lists. But I have learned not to be too harsh on myself.
