I am not one for pampering myself
Pregnant or otherwise
I am just not very good at it
I do not wear make up
I do not take leisurely baths
I do not style my hair
I do not really use lotions and potions
I am just not very good at it
At taking time for me
One thing I do love to do
Is massage my bump when pregnant
But even though I love doing this
I still only do it about twice a week
One thing I do love is trying out
New Weleda products
New to me
Which most of them are
So it has been lovely finding Weleda goodies
In many of the Project B boxes I have tried
Since announcing I was pregnant
At 15 weeks
I have been receiving a monthly box from Project B
Project B is a pregnancy subscription service
You can sign up yourself or buy as a gift for someone else
Each month you’ll receive products, from relaxation to healthy eating, household to pampering, plus expert advice to match your month of pregnancy
You can sign-up for any month from 12 weeks
The boxes arrive at the beginning of each month
And are full of pregnancy related products
Some months have been better for me than others
And I suspect that must be common feed back
As all pregnant ladies have different likes, wants and needs
I have found that in most boxes there has been at least one thing
That I have given away
But there have always been new products for me to try
And special treats for me, and the family(!), to enjoy
Also included in each monthly Project B box
Is advice from a team of experts
Midwife and Health Professional Nikki Holdsworth RSc (Hons) RM
And author of ‘What To Buy For Your Baby’ Liat Hughes Joshi
So as well as products to trial and test
You also have information on your pregnancy that month
A new recipe to try out, advice on staying active, and tips on what to think about buying
I have not really used the recipe cards
But the other information I have found valuable
And useful for me
Even though Rainbow Baby is Baby Number Four
Perhaps more so because of this
My time with my box
Is my time
To remember
My goodness, I am growing a baby here
This is what is happening inside me this month
These are the things I need to be thinking about
And here are some products that might help me to do that
I have loved receiving these boxes each month
I would definitely recommend to a friend
And would subscribe on behalf of someone special
So that they too have a little pamper parcel each month
That gives them it’s contents
But also the reminder of what they are doing
And the time to just focus on them and their bump
Just for a little while
I have been really impressed with many of the products
In the monthly Project B boxes
I have loved all of the Weleda products
It is no secret to any reader of this blog
That I adore Weleda
The ethos of the company
The quality of the products
The wonderful support that the team have given to me
And the memories of Baby Tilda
I have loved finding old faithful products in the boxes
Such as Bio Oil and Palmers Cocoa Butter
I have also loved new discoveries
Perhaps my favourite being Joe and Seph’s popcorn
Yummy!
Two of the months have included books
Making them great value for money
Often there are tester sized products
Which are what they are
I prefer one real sized product
Than a selection of testers
But realise that is a personal choice
On the whole I have loved these boxes from Project B
And will be very sad that my next one will be my last
The Celebration Box
Because one month from now and Rainbow Baby may well be here!
I have been sent a monthly box from Project B free of charge for the purpose of this review
