In desperate need of an affordable self-care weekend.

Also on my list is buying a cupcake/small cake and balloons for myself not to pig out on lol! Just to feel festive.

There are some massage places that do $15 for 15 minutes? Also my midwifes office offers pregnant massages so check that out!
Another thing is nails, and maybe just going to the movies alone?? Sometimes that’s the best! Haha Go get a coffee or tea somewhere and listen to live music etc

Omg girl i feel you! I would love to know myself.

Let me know when you find out lol

I have always loved just going to a matinee movie alone and my recharge. :)

When I’m broke I like to just go window shopping. Just walk around your favorite stores especially baby stores will be fun right now. Go see a movie and eat too much popcorn. You could also check Groupon for cheap prenatal massages. I was only able to get one during my pregnancy, it was a gift but it was the most amazing massage I ever had. Just take some time for yourself and do little things that make you happy.

Hello!! I definitely understand so well with having stressors of my own also. This is my first pregnancy and all I've experienced have been stressors. I'm in a state where I have no family or support so my days seems so long and depressing. I been trying to find positive productive activities like prenatal yoga, moms to be activities/support groups around the city if I'm lucky enough and I even tried maternity massages and a foot massage 😊. Just a few ideas to give you. Still pray and continue to strive for a healthy baby and mommy is what I'm trying to learn. I just joined today to try a different outlet to defuse my stress. God Bless.

I saw a masseuse who specialises in pregnancy massage and OH. MY. GOD! She works magic!! I highly suggest one!

I love a mini road trip with a scenic walk. I see you live in Memphis there must be a bunch of beautiful scenic places where you can park your car, have a nice hot tea (or decaf coffee) and go for a walk. Be in the moment with yourself, and with your new blessing, and allowing gratitude to take over! We’re so caught up in life sometimes we don’t just stop and be. I love the idea of a pedicure, and getting some sweets as well, enjoy!

I didn’t think about a movie. I may go see a matinee tomorrow. I’ve been wanting concession stand nachos.

Thanks for the suggestions.
