Stretchies? Just the ones I've always had on my legs but they seem more noticeable haha I'm applying my butter morning and night

Weekly Wisdom? Haven't gotten any this week I don't think...shocker!!!

Emotions? I have been pretty steady on this surprisingly...before pregnancy I was an emotional mess and then nothing while I was pregnant but I am seeing I'm becoming more sensitive. Last night Mr. B and I had a tiff because he wants an LSU purple backpack diaper bag for when he takes the kid out. I don't want that for myself. I want a basic black one so that he could carry it. He got all upset saying I'm making all the decisions. To me it's not practical and I'm registering for 2 ok...and I told him when will you ever take the baby out without me? Let's me realistic. He was all WHATEVER just WHATEVER and I found myself in tears haha...He rolled over and I got over it though
