When Did I Get Pregnant? Figuring Out Your Conception Date

May 24, 2017 by Marissa 6 Comments

When Did I Get Pregnant?

When Did I Get Pregnant- Find out how to figure out when you conceived. (This post contains affiliate links)

 

Are you wondering, “When did I get pregnant?”? For some women, figuring out when they got pregnant is a must. They either want to know just for the sake of knowing, they want a different way to estimate a due date, or they want to determine who the father of their baby might be.

No matter what the reason, figuring out the possible date you may have gotten pregnant isn’t too difficult, but it is very important to note that it is just an estimation based on dates on a calendar. Unless you had a very tiny camera inside of you that could capture the exact moment the egg and sperm met, or you had medical help conceiving, there’s no real way (that I know of) to know your exact conception date.

For a very in-depth reading on finding out when you became pregnant, read this very informative article (written by me!).  If you just want the very basics, continue below.  [Read more…]

How to Take Your Baby’s Temperature

Your baby isn’t herself today. She seems tired and a tad cranky, and when you picked her up, she felt warm. You know you should take her temperature to see if she is running a fever, but you dread having to use a thermometer to get an accurate reading.

For babies older than 6 months, an ear thermometer like the Kinsa Smart Ear Thermometer is an easy solution with its one second read time, gentle probe, and easy to use, convenient app. Thanks to Kinsa, I have been able to try out the Kinsa Sesame Street Smart Ear Thermometer with my baby.

Help Fight Diaper Need by Donating Huggies Rewards Points

Learn how you can donate Huggies rewards points to help families in need of diapers. (This is a sponsored post that may contain affiliate links)

Fight Diaper Need This Father’s Day by Donating Huggies Rewards Points is a sponsored post on behalf of Huggies. 

If there’s one thing in this household  that we use a lot lately, it’s diapers. My baby girl alone uses about 5-7 diapers every day!

Did you know? In the U.S., 1 in 3 families that don’t have enough diapers to keep their babies clean and healthy. While many families have the means to continue to get enough diapers for their babies, other families who may be struggling financially are stretching the time between diaper changes so that they won’t need to buy them as often. These families often have to choose between buying food for their babies and buying diapers. Unfortunately, that means that some babies are sitting in soiled diapers much longer than they should, leading to diaper rashes, urinary tract infections, or staph infections.

That needs to change, and you can help. [Read more…]

Help for Back Pain from Betterback

In search of help for back pain?

As a mom, I am often complaining of back pain. Especially now with a belly bump, I’m feeling the pain in my lower back quite a bit. Add to this how I’ll be nursing the baby soon and being a blogger and sitting at the computer for a few hours a day… ouch!

BetterBack was designed to help people who to sit for hours at a time avoid back pain. By helping you with your posture, it helps with lower back pain and can make you more aware of how you’re sitting.

I was sent a BetterBack to review, and it couldn’t have come at a better time! [Read more…]

How do you help your child when he or she has a fever? Do you try to give medicine, or would you rather a different way to help reduce the fever?

While many parents would head right for the medicine, some would rather not, which is totally okay. A fever is the body’s way of fighting off infections, so it is seen as a healthy sign if the body is responding with a mild fever.

Do Huggies Wipes Have Glass in Them? What You Should Know

Do Huggies Wipes Have Glass in Them? Why Huggies Wanted to Talk

Do Huggies Wipes Have Glass in Them-

On October 5th 2015 I attended the first ever Huggies Parents’ Council in Chicago. For me, that meant traveling during my 26th week of pregnancy to a city I have never been in before. Why in the world would I do that?

I was invited by Huggies since I was a blogger and shared with you about the recent news coverage Huggies wipes received. Like I told my husband, if I wasn’t already a loyal Huggies customer myself, I probably would have reconsidered this trip, but I wanted to hear what they had to say and share it all with you. After all, as a parent first and foremost, the safety of the baby products I use is important to me, just as I am sure it is very important to you.

If you remember back in August of 2015, there was a video that surfaced on Facebook claiming that there was glass in a pack of Huggies wipes. It had the Internet buzzing, “Do Huggies wipes have glass in them?!?” I wrote about it here when I announced I’d be attending the Huggies Parents Council. [Read more…]
