Start small (think big)

Celebrate your small victories while you're trying to conceive. Good things come in small packages. So think of your body as a tiny house that you need to prepare for an amazing new guest: your baby. Eat nutritious foods (both of you!), stay mentally centered and work with purpose. All your preparation will get you ready for your next great adventure: becoming parents. XO, TeamMotherly P.S. More small packages, please! We're adore Deborah Lippmann's fertility-friendly nail polish line (no formaldehyde!), so we Amazon Prime'd those babies straight to our house.
