Happy Friday!! It’s the weekend and I know we’re all so glad!

I love your posts! I really appreciate the pregnancy and nursing friendly posts as well. I’m currently nursing and it’s great to find items that help that.
I love 3 things that I’m torn between. 1) that wrap dress (for nursing) 2) the grey sweater (I can’t find the brand) that supports nursing (you said you were going to grab it but couldn’t wear it because your bump showed) and 3) the surplice sweater that supports nursing.
Thank you for doing this! Love following you!
