About Me

Hello, I’m so happy you’re here! Whether you’re here to order a cake or to talk all things motherhood,

you’re in the R I G H T P L A C E.

For the last 6 years of my life, my job description has been “cake decorator.” I’ve recently added “mom” to the description, and I must say it’s my new favorite part. With less than a year of experience in this new career, I have a lot to learn. I want to take you on my journey into my very raw and real experiences with pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. People told me about pregnancy/birth, but they didn’t REALLY tell me – the joys, the aches, the pains, the hemorrhoids. I want to remove the filter and give you all the juice about pregnancy and moming for the first time. I promise to be real and honest so you can feel as prepared as possible for your positive pregnancy and birth experience – can’t wait to adventure with you 🙂

10 First Trimester Pregnancy Snack Ideas

May 14, 2025 By Alexa Bontrager Leave a Comment

Let’s talk about first trimester. It’s hard. Arguably the worst trimester (for me anyways). Your usual meals and snacks don’t sound good. So you basically have to come up with a whole new menu. And have to eat every 2 hours. Except just the thought of food makes you want to throw up. So you’re…
