2. Chic vs. Child: Can Baby-Proof Be Glamorous?

You may be thinking, “Is it possible to baby-proof while maintaining an air of chic around the house?” The answer is a glorious, glittery yes!

Your home doesn’t have to go from Vogue living to kindergarten cabin. Maintain your sparkle and sass, mama!

Remember, fashion-forwardness doesn’t halt for new arrivals—it merely adjusts its stride.

It's all about the pomp and circumstance in pastel. Pro tip: Put as many fluffy bunnies and rainbows as your heart desires. Your sanity comes first.

4. Zen Master's Corner: Creating a Calming Space for Yourself

Before you go into full-on baby prep beast mode, remember you are also an integral resident of this space. Design a calming niche where you can enjoy stolen moments of peace. A luxe recliner with a massage feature, a cozy throw (preferably one that survives the inevitable tea spill), and a stash of celebratory chocolate. Voilà, your fortress of solitude!

This, my dear, is your antidote to Mom-brain madness!

If anyone asks why there's chocolate... deny everything. Blame it on pregnancy brain.
