I’m pregnant. And right now I’m sick - so I have had no make up on all week and I just realized I look positively ratchet. What are some things I can do to spruce up my “Woke up Like This” appearance for all the days that will blur into nights into days when I have a newborn. Was thinking a lash lift, eye brow tint, new glasses, cute PJs (but I don’t think the first few are safe while preg…) 🤔 Def can’t do Botox 😏

Lift and tint are generally pregnancy safe, it's just a personal choice. But the time to maintain after arrival may pose a struggle. Ex- I used to wear lash extensions but bi weekly 90min maintenance was too much to commit to. Definitely cute robe, glasses, pjs, lounge wear. Maybe a quick 10 min makeup routine. I love the kits by The Lip Bar. Comes w a tinted moisturizer, blush powder bronzer and highlight in one compact, add a lip and mascara and you're good.

I’m 14 weeks and feel the same. Been sick with no energy and it’s hard. I look horrible each day and need to find strength to get up and do something about it smh

Those are all safe! Aside from the Botox.

I feel you on all of these. Counting down the days until I can do my Botox again too. I think the quick makeup routine (esp an easy blush stick and/or bronzer) and sometimes even just a pop of lip color makes a big difference.

Also been doing a 5 minute curling of my hair and I feel like it makes a big impact, so if there’s a quick hair style that transforms you to feeling more out together, that’s a good one too

It's like a brow relaxer. As they grow out your natural texture comes back. Similar to a lash lift. Which would be like a lash perm to make em lifted / a bit of curl.

I like the quickie make up suggestions. Anything else that’s more permanent ?

Definitely do your own research and try to find a salon near you that does it (it’s not done in every salon), but I can attest it definitely keeps my waves/loose curls. The puffiness in my hair is super frizzy curls, and I can actually see them now with the Botox.

Congratulations! Get tinted SPF or BB Cream. Not as heavy as makeup and gives you a little color/coverage. Do your eyeliner & brows & tinted lip gloss. A quick mini makeup routine will make you feel & look "put together." It will also help when you have that extra person in your life to take care of! You can do this!

I am at a DoD focused startup that is drafting their military leave policy.

Our PTO is Flexible Leave = they don’t track days worked in return for days off

The draft military leave policy:
- 2 weeks of annual AT can be flex leave
- 2 days allocated a year for PT test

I previously worked at Deloitte and loved their military leave policy, so I am pushing for 2 weeks of AT allowed and 80 hours a year for travel to drill/medical appts/misc days you have to meet active counterparts.
