#ad If you cross your legs every time you sneeze, you might want to try Poise Ultra Thin Pads. #PoisePartner

My bladder isn’t very trustworthy these days and I have to cross my legs whenever I sneeze, laugh, or jump and that never guarantees I won’t have a bladder leak. 😫 Let’s just say I always have a change of clothes on me in case of an “unfortunate accident.”

Hi from Georgia! We made it but I'm just going to say that moving is no fun especially when you’re in perimenopause, there is currently a national shortage of estrogen patches, and your husband is working in another continent. 🤣🤣😫😭 But it's fine! I'm fine!

In honor of my dad... He would crack me up even when he wasn't trying to be funny. Love you dad! RIH💜

Goodbye Dad... It's hard to put into words the sim

Goodbye Dad... It's hard to put into words the simultaneous emotions of grief, emptiness, love, and gratefulness I feel right now. I had more time than most to prepare for your death, but I don't think anything can prepare anyone for the hole the loss of a parent can leave. I am sad you are gone but happy to know that you no longer have to live as a shell of your former self. I will miss your quiet, sharp sense of humor that still managed to shine its way through the haze of Alzheimer that stole you from us. You taught me how to dream and made me believe that I was capable of anything I put my mind to. I will be forever grateful for that gift and hope to pass that on to my children so that your essence can live on through them. Love you Dad! 💜 January 23, 1947 - June 29, 2026 💜

#CologuardPartner If you were a teenager way back

#CologuardPartner If you were a teenager way back in the 90s… It’s time for a Colon Cancer screening with the Cologuard test.

Colon cancer is the #1 cause of cancer-related death in the US or adults under the age of 50. Timely screening & early detection are key!
I know you may be busy working on your summer body for the beach this summer, but it is just as important that we take care of our insides too, and @Cologuard is vital summer prep for those of us 45+.

A Cologuard® test is intended to screen adults 45 and older at average risk or colorectal cancer. Do not use if you have had adenomas, have inflammatory bowel disease and certain hereditary syndromes, or a personal or family history of colorectal cancer. Cologuard is not a replacement for colonoscopy in high risk patients. Cologuard performance in adults ages 45-49 is estimated based on a large clinical study of patients 50 and older. False positive and false negatives can occur. Rx only. Results may vary.

Just a reminder... you are doing a good job Momma!

Just a reminder... you are doing a good job Momma!

Don't let Instagram make you think you aren't doing enough as a mom. You are doing what works for you and your family and that is what matters!
