Morning Pep Prenatal Vitamins Review

by brandiann April 1, 2019

If you’re pregnant or planning on conceiving anytime soon it’s a good idea to start taking a prenatal vitamin! Taking a prenatal vitamin helps cover any nutritional gaps in a mother’s diet.

Prenatal vitamins contain many vitamins and minerals. Their folic acid, iron, iodine, and calcium are especially important. One of the key roles vitamins play is they help aid neural tube development during pregnancy. Neural tube defects develop in the first 28 days after conception, before many women know they are pregnant.

Do you often feel tired or sluggish? Wish you had more energy? You’re probably lacking essential vitamins your body needs. Your body needs nutrients for reproduction, maintenance, growth and regulation of bodily processes.

Purple Trail | Greeting Cards for Any Occasion

Deck the Mantels with Cards of Cheer!

‘Tis the season for lots of postage, fa la la la laaaa! I added a stylish touch to my Christmas cards this season with Purple Trail’s customizable cards, and I’m super happy with them! One of my favorite things about the holidays is receiving Christmas cards from family and friends in the mail!

One of the perks of being a graphic designer is being able to design things myself. In the past I would do just that, but now that I’m a mom, I don’t have that precious time to waste! Personally, I’d rather be spending the extra time with my daughter than designing a card from scratch, especially when Purple Trail offers designs similar to what I would have done myself anyhow, but better! I’m all for making my life easier – are you with me?

Purple Trail has pages of beautiful, easy-to-use card designs. With so many options to choose from, you’ll be sure to find the perfect look, whether your taste is whimsical or modern. Get ultimate customization by adding a special photo or collage and your personalized message.

Dear Long-Lost Friend

by brandiann November 30, 2018

Dear long-lost friend,

The one that I never hear from anymore. I get it. Life is busy … There’s work, children and life’s day-to-day chaos. Little did I know that once I had a family of my own, many people would just vanish from my life, people who were once so close to me.

There are times in your life worth celebrating. One of those times happened to be the first time I saw two pink lines on that test strip. That day was filled with excitement and a touch of anxiety. I was about to embark on a journey I had never gone before and it was both exhilarating and uneasy not knowing what would lie ahead.

Essential Oxygen 3-Step Oral Care System Review

by brandiann November 28, 2018

Healthy Smile, Healthy You

Oral health is very important. It’s crucial for maintaining general health. Regular dental visits allow for early identification of infections or conditions. There are preemptive measures you can take in at home, without a dental visit (though it is still recommended to go every 6 months for a cleaning).

Did you know? Your oral health reveals a lot about your overall health. According to the Academy of General Dentistry, there is a correlation between gum (periodontal) disease and health complications, such as heart disease and stroke. This makes it imperative to practice good oral hygiene at home, beginning with flossing and brushing twice a day for at least two minutes.
