Hi! I am Kareema! It’s an absolute pleasure for you to visit my blog today!
I have a regular 9 to 5 job as a banker, so obviously that’s what I spend my days doing. I live in the Bahamas where I am married and have two wonderful kids that are currently 1 year old and 2 months (20 months apart!) I bet you can imagine how exciting life is for us at this time!
In my spare time I enjoy reading, working out and going to the beach (I live on an island… I’d probably be considered ungrateful if this wasn’t one of my favorite things to do!
I really became interested in blogging in 2018 after having my first child and then again considered it while I was pregnant in 2019 into 2020. I finally decided to take the plunge into the ‘blogashpere’ in early 2020 and I’m excited to see where it will take me!
The reason I wanted to start the blog is motivated by my first pregnancy where I ended with an emergency c section (which I had always dreaded during pregnancy because I knew I did not want to have to go through that recovery especially when I love to workout and be on the move). Then apart from the c section delivery I had challenges with breastfeeding and eventually turned to exclusive pumping (which I didn’t even know was a thing at the time). It was like one thing after the other and I was constantly looking for reliable resources that I could turn to that would help me in my journey!
So along comes 2019 and I’m pregnant with my second child… I figure what better time to get started on this blog than now! I could document the lessons I’ve learned and compile a resource that women like me can turn to for postpartum advice (c section related obviously) on recovery and fitness, exclusively pumping/breast pumping as well as the wildly insane but fulfilling life that is raising two kids under two!
I believe that while we may have similar stories and experiences no two are exactly the same… so why not share what you know and have learned! There’s no need to keep yourself muffled because we’re all learning everyday and you never know how someone else can use your tips and tweak them to help in their life!
The famous quote from Oscar Wilde says it all, “Be yourself. Everyone else is taken. “
