After weeks of questions from friends, acquaintances and strangers asking how I seem so ‘together’ weeks after having baby #2, I thought I’d share my tried-and-true tips for feeling fabulous, energized, looking decent and functioning ‘normally’ (if there is such a thing) almost immediately after-baby.

Rosie Pope Maternity! If I become pregnant *again*, I’m holding her responsible.
Consider yourself warned, Rosie Pope. You may have a sunny smile and sincerely sweet personality, but I’m wise to your type. Last time I attended a fabulous event that showcased enviable maternity clothes and preggy-mama needs…. THIS HAPPENED. (Y’all remember that?)

If the Irish only knew what I did with cabbage this weekend…
