Influenster ZzzQuil VoxBox

Influenster ZZZQuil VoxBox

I got qualified for the Influenster ZzzQuil voxbox and I recieved this box yesterday in the mail. Yay! I do currently take prescription sleeping meds. because the over the counter stuff isn't strong enough for me, and I have an insomnia and sleeping problem. I can however, once and a while take this with melatonin and get some sleep. so I will save this for when I or someone I know needs it.

enjoy, and stay tuned for a review and more beauty goodness,

Bath and Body Works Aromatherapy: Stress Relief Line Review

B&BW Stress Relief Review

The Bath and Body Works Aromatherapy line has four different categories like sleep, stress relief, energy and sensual. In each category there is different scents to fit the person using them. I got the stress relief line in eucalyptus spearmint. I bought the body wash/foam bath, and the lotion to stack the scents or use individually to help with stress relief.

The scent is very minty to me, it definitely will clear your sinuses if you have a cold, which is an added use right there. It claims to relax you and clear your head, as for that claim I do believe with the hotness of the bath and the aroma that you do relax and the scent does make you clear your mind. I have been using this religiously because I am stressed out from the holidays, work, ect. I absolutely love this stuff now! I love the lotion even more, because it is highly moisturizing and takes care of my dry skin, and makes it baby butt soft. The body wash also moisturizes a little bit too, the combo of both the lotion and body wash stacks a scent that will last all day. I love it soo!!

you can find this line at www.bathandbodyworks.com or at any bath and body works near you!!

If your stressed, get it! It really helps!

I was pregnant once...

I was once pregnant! 

I really miss being pregnant. I was pregnant once, and hope I can become it again. Miss baby peanut!

The Hardest Goodbye Ever!

 on January 6th 2016 at my 13 week checkup, I found out that my baby did not have a heartbeat, it also had stopped at 8 weeks and 5 days. I had been carrying a dead baby inside myself for 5 weeks not knowing what had happened.

I have never ever felt this much pain in my entire life, as I have wanted to be a mother since I was a little girl. I gave this unborn baby all my love, hopes, and dreams and I will never see them be born, walk, go to school, and fall in love as much as I loved them.

I will be grieving and heart broken for a very long time.

rest on peace sweet baby peanut, mommy and daddy loved you so.

Lush: AvoBath Bath Bomb Review

Lush's AvoBath Bath Bomb

I pick one of these up while I was shopping in Vegas, and brought it all the way home to MN. I used it a week or so after I got home and I fell in love with it hardcore.

This bath bomb is 6.3 oz. and is HUGE! you can definitely cut it into fours to use in the bath, but I would cut it in half so you get more of the bath bomby goodness. It has a lemongrass and citrus smell, and it does clear your mind, and kind of energizes you. It contains something like 44 fresh avocados in each bath bomb, extra virgin olive oil, lemongrass oil, bergamont oil, rosewood oil, and gardenia extract. This bath bomb turns your bath an awesome lime green color, and is SUPER moisturizing for you skin.

After I got out of the bath my skin was so moisturized and silky smooth. I loved it. No need for lotion after this bath. I would purchase these in bulk, over and over again. I'm in love with these.

Love it so! A++++++

May 1st

May 1st is national bereaved mother's day.
As a bereaved mother it hurts the most on a holiday when you honor mothers, but many are still grieving and seeing people doing things you had seen in your mind when you were carrying the child/children.
I grieve every day for my child I carried, and it's very hard for people to understand the deep hurt it gives, and makes your previous ptsd,anxiety,depression, and other mental disorders worse and even unbareable. 

It's hard for me now to hear of people aborting unwanted babies, it hurts and I want my baby back.
I also don't agree with how cold and uncaring doctors and obgyn people are when you are faced with losing a child/children, the only one who showed some remorse was the ultrasound tech. The doctor didn't even acknowledge it as a baby/fetus. It makes me mad and sad to no end.

That's all for right now, had to get it off my chest. Thanks
