For months, I have wanted to design a camouflage onesie for baby boys and girls that said “MAJOR MIRACLE.”  I thought these would be so cute for anyone who’s had trouble having a baby like me, physical challenges, military families, and so many others who would say, “My baby is a miracle!” 

So I’m thrilled to announce the baby onesies are available on my website.  I also have them availabe in “COMMANDER IN CHIELF” which is sure to make you smile!  Please check it out and tell your friends about them.  The onesies make great baby gifts.  The models are my daughter and Tracy’s son (she was featured on my last podcast).   You can see Tracy’s son wearing his Major Miracle onesie in my previous post. 

It was just 2 Christmases ago that I lost a precious baby girl at 26 weeks.  Read my story on http://www.losingweightafterbaby.com or watch it on You Tube at

I hope it will encourage you or a friend who have experienced this terrible loss.  It can be especially hard to lose the weight after a miscarriage, but hang in there, it can be done.  I like what Oswald Chambers said, “If God has made your cup sweet, drink it with grace.  If He has made it bitter, drink it in communion with Him.”  You are never alone. 

I also talk about  podcast this week, “Losing Weight After Baby” which you can find on my website or iTunes. 

I watch the physical development of my one year old.  From the commando crawl, to crawling on fours, to pulling up, to teetering and standing.  One day I tried to imitate her for a few moments.  It didn’t take long to be out of breath, crawling on all fours is hard work! 

Hot Exercise Tip for Moms: Imitate your baby if he is moving.  Crawl when he crawls.  Wave your arms when he waves his.  Roll over when he does.  Not only will you both have a blast, you’ll find yourself much more active all day long, a great step towards weight loss after baby.

My baby turned one this past weekend.  We had a simple party with cupcakes.  My mom spelled out her name in fondant.  Too cute, I would have never had the patience! 

Hot Goal for Moms:  When your baby turns one, make it a goal to be at your pre-baby weight.  Sooner than one year is great too of course!  Don’t give up - you can lose the weight if you apply yourself.  If your baby’s birthday is long over, it’s still not too late!  Make a commitment to lose 2 pounds a week until you’re at your goal weight.
