Parenting is so OVERemotional, no-one can argue with that.
In February, Fisher-Price will be launching their OVERjoyed Campaign, celebrating the Real Joys of Motherhood. Launching soon, you’ll be able to share a photo with your ‘OVER___’ caption, marking a special moment of your journey.
As a Fisher-Price Mom Ambassador, I’ll also be sharing my memories. Being the first, I thought I’d start from the beginning. The moment that started my motherhood story.
When I was expecting my Isabelle, circa 2004.
I call this, OVERexcited as she was highly OVERanticipated and while at times I was way too OVERstimulated. Yet I embraced pregnancy and what was to come, 100%.
I dived into reading parenting books and journalling my pregnancy {I guess you could call it my first blog!}. As well, I embraced new projects like shopping for gear and decorating the room. While I didn’t know that Isabelle was a ‘she’ until she was born, I must have had a feeling. Looking back, what I bought and how I decorated was so feminine. She was meant to be!
So, here’s the beginning of ‘my Motherhood‘.
Link up and tell me in a comment, What would your OVER___ moment be?
… and yes, I am never, ever wordless. Call me OVERchatty.

What a pretty room Tammi!

I have to say over-paranoid. When I had my first child I read through all the illnesses and such. But good to know!
Yes! With my first I was OVERparanoid too, I recall running away from lunch meat in fear. Everything, good and bad, was a learning experience, right?
What a nice photo
Have a superlicious week
Thanks Steve, hope you had a great weekend!
Beautiful room. And congrats to you if I haven’t already said so in previous comments.
I would say Over-Sick. Morning sickness the whole 9 months, even vomiting as I was delivering lol. Needless to say, I am not one who enjoys being pregnant.
Oh no Theresa! So, after birth you’d have called yourself OVERrelieved?
I was over-sick too! Was just awful…but it was worth it in the end
Another! ok, we need to form an OVERthetoilet club guys!
Congrats! Hope all goes well with the upcoming birth.
The pic is from 2004. nope, not me now. lol
Such a beautiful lady – you are absolutely glowing!
I know, lol. Cliche but I can see that it’s true!!
With my first pregnancy, there was a lot of OVER eating! It was my license to eat. I gained 65 lbs. Yikes! But once he was born I was OVER joyed. What a blessing both kids are.
YES!! Same here, OVEReat – that was me as well. I gained as much with my first as I did with the twins! Chips and dip with slurpees, that was my craving with my first. I went at it hardcore!!
Beautiful shot! Thanks for hosting Tammi! Happy WW!
How fun! I loved reading this. Hmm.. I have to get back to you on my over moment.. because right now I am OVER tired, lol!
Definately OVERtired, always!!
I’m definitely OVERextended right now. I never stop and have a hard time saying no. Especially to events the kids want to go to.
We do stretch ourselves way too thin sometimes, don’t we?
I remember my first pregnancy so well, every milestone was full of excitement, I would say I was OVERjoyed!
You look great!
With my first I was just so excited. I have to say I was scared of the birth. I had to have a c-section.
Surgery is always nerve wracking, and I guess you can lump it all together and say that nothing in parenting ever goes as planned!
Your preggo pic looks great! All of mine are horrible…I was so sick every pregnancy!
OVERstressed. I take everything to heart and worry about every little thing. I didn’t enjoy my pregnancy because of it, which in the end didn’t matter because what I was so worried about and trying to avoid happened anyway. Turned out to be not the end of the world and I have a beautiful son
You had an incredible journey bringing your little man into this world, Randa. Maybe you had a sixth sense the whole time, maybe it was all underlying stress..?? Ya, I also OVERthink everything!! lol
Congrats. I remember my first pregancy, I was sick for the few few months, I had heartburn. It was all worth it.
I have to go with what Theresa said. I was sick the entire length of both of my pregnancies. I’m glad I did it, but I’m also glad that part is over!
You looked great–we must enjoy each moment as they come and don’t be OVERworried
I was overparanoid for sure!
