The long nine months of a pregnancy are often accompanied with an equally long list of justified complaints from the mama-to-be; For The Insider‘s Victoria Recaño, her only complaint is that she doesn’t have any!
Due with her first child — a baby girl — next month, Victoria admits that the pregnancy journey has “been such a great experience so far” and is hopeful she is not living the infamous calm before the storm! “I said I hope it’s an indication of how good the baby’s going to be. We’ll see,” she tells Pregnancy.
Whether her forecast for the future pans out or not, Victoria is focusing her final stages of pregnancy on preparing for the arrival of her daughter. While she and her husband Tom Burwell have yet to finalize any names, Victoria shares that the baby’s alias is Coco, with the occasional use of Coco Puff. “It’s like one of those things where we really didn’t want to announce any official name because we were afraid we’d get too many official opinions,” explains Victoria.
Reluctant to admit that she now finds herself maintaining 45-minute conversations regarding stroller brands with some of her closest friends and fellow moms, Victoria laughs that her previous priorities of keeping up with national news seems to have taken a back burner. “It’s changed, it’s gone from the stock market and what’s going on in the real estate world to the latest baby gadget and what’s the hottest necessity for an infant right now,” shares Victoria, adding, “but it’s fun, I like it.”
When Victoria is ready to make her final decisions and stock up on the many baby gadgets, there will certainly be plenty of room in her newly organized closet! After trouble sleeping at 5 a.m., Victoria found it to be the “perfect time” to sift through her clothes and do a “major Goodwill/Salvation Army donation.” Wrapping up with her own closet, the mom-to-be moved on to her daughter’s room and closet, organizing “things to get rid of, things to make space for her stuff.” One item that will definitely be taking up much of that space, according to Victoria, is her baby girl’s shoes — as her collection is already growing!
“She’s already got three pairs of shoes. I know, funny, right? And I’ve got some dresses and some cute, like, little fun casual clothes. The clothing is great, cause girls are so fun to shop for.”
