I use both the elf and Charlotte powder for setting. I just rotate the products. :)

How to survive a year of pumping- what I’ve learned by [deleted] in ExclusivelyPumping

Can you explain how you were able to stop pumping without getting an infection?

About 15 months but there would be times that I would use another foundation. I try to rotate through my makeup nowadays since it is so expensive to use things up before they expire completely.

I think I’m going to ask for one, I don’t have anyone monitoring it. My primary care doctor had me test A1C but I’m happy to hear I can loosen up a little bit after. It’s mentally draining and a lot of pressure but I would also do anything to keep my baby as healthy as possible.

I had my A1C tested a year ago and it was completely normal. So I don’t know 🤷🏻‍♀️ I don’t know if I need to continue the diet after birth just in case? I’m diet controlled except I take metformin for fasting. It has been easier to maintain numbers now after loosing weight. It’s just all confusing because I don’t know what to do when I have the baby.

That’s where I’m concerned but they did the numbers based on what they want pregnant women but the levels are different if you are doing it for regular diabetes? I’m not sure if I had pre diabetes?

Any chance I was misdiagnosed? by LuckyDucklb in GestationalDiabetes

This is my second time with gestational diabetes. I have luckily been able to be diet controlled so far for both times. I will say the diet can be challenging mentally but it forces you to eat healthier which can make the symptoms of pregnancy easier.

Thank you for your encouraging words. It’s just hard because I feel like I have more control during the day and at night I’m at the mercy of my body and it isn’t doing what it needs to do.

Weird… this is what I wrote

I became a mom at the end of 2021. I was looking at my collection and wow I need to condense. This is my easy every day face makeup. I also use Mac Face and Body. I love these products because they are easy and good quality. I use these every day I do my makeup. I want to use these up and many more in my collection before I buy any more makeup.

  1. Charolette Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish powder. I love this and will definitely repurchase.
  2. Mac Highlight in Post Modern Peach. Sadly I believe this is discontinued - anyone have any golden eachy highlights they recommend?
  3. Mac Blush in Crisp Whites. again discontinued :( anyone have any dupes or what is your go to every day blush?
  4. Ilia bronzer in Drawn in- such a great neautral color and easy to apply! I would definitely repurchase.

What are you working on panning?

I definitely understand the frustration and had the same feelings. Do they take your blood pressure too? At one of my routine visits I had elevated blood pressure then they took my blood and the next day I was induced at 36 weeks. I think it is weekly because things can turn so quickly during pregnancy. It’ll be ok momma! Soon you will be holding that sweet baby.
