Funny, beautiful and of course FABULOUS Here's the story of Ashley Stukes & her bundle of joy AshtonWhen I first received the confirmation of my pregnancy I was not shocked, only because my cycle was a week late and I knew my son’s father and I were not using all the protection that we could have used. My friends were freaking out more than I was! The first family member I told about my pregnancy was my Mom, second was my Grandma. My Mom was very disappointed and was advising me to abort my pregnancy without actually saying, “abort your pregnancy.” My Grandma was telling me it was not the time for me to have a baby because I have a lot going for myself. When I told my son’s father…

 **Fab Mamacita** Erica Jones joins us with the story of her little miss Jayden My first reaction wasn’t sad or happy it was just Blah (for lack of better words).

So it wasn’t a surprise it was more of a “Now what?” The only thing that was going through my mind was that “Am I going to be able to take care of a baby”. But I didn’t cry or feel any sadness.

This month's **Fab Mamacita** is the lovely  Asiaonna JordanShe joins us with the story of her bundle of joy, Kameron "As surprising as he was, my son Kameron is the best thing that has ever happened to me."I remember when I first found out I was pregnant...it was last year during spring break, I was definitely in denial! It was actually my mom who told me I was pregnant, you know when they say your mom knows before you tell her..yes so true, b/c mine knew. I think I was too shocked to even cry at the moment, which did not stop my cousin from bursting into tears. She had bought me the test because I refused to take one and she was more emotional than I was when we saw…

Dorian Carter5 Healthy Eating Tips While PregnantI stuck to a strict diet while pregnant....EAT STRICTLY WHAT I WANT! Ha! I wish, in the beginning months of pregnancy, around 1-4 months is when i ate EVERYTHING! From french fries, to cheesesticks, and chicken nuggets to slushies, sundaes, and the RECOMMENED WATER....i ate it all. However, I PAID FOR BEIN A FATTY MCFATSTER, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes specifically for my OVER ABUNDANCE of french fries, which inadvertently turned into SUGAR. I didn’t have to take insulin or anything BUT in my last couple months, 7-10....i was on diet control having to supplement white for wheat, LIMITED potatoes and pasta :(, and SUGAR FREE DRINKS! It was the worse, however my healthy baby was more important that satisfying my sweet tooth…
