Hi, I’m Pippa - your less annoying know-it-all friend, who will spill her secrets and keep yours.

Congrats, mazel, and kudos on your pregnancy! If you’re feeling excited and a bit overwhelmed, you’re not alone. There are tons of books and apps and websites to help you navigate the world of pregnancy, but all you really need is someone to give you the quick and dirty, right? Like a fantastic wedding planner, only for your pregnancy? That’s me.

I’ll break down your pregnancy to-do list every week, with a focus on the stuff that the traditional pregnancy check-lists don’t talk about - like handling your mother-in-law, what to wear home from the hospital, and the convos to have with your partner along the way.

Each week, I’ll give you some ideas for what to do for your pregnancy/baby/family this week, what to buy for your pregnancy, and what to discuss with your partner during pregnancy.

Hopefully it goes without saying, but I’m just your girlfriend - not a doctor - so any tips I have should be taken as just that: my little nugget of wisdom, not a substitute for medical advice. All content is my own.

Here we go!
