Our life with our toddler
It seems like I have been pregnant forever. Even one of my consultants at the hospital joked it was the longest pregnancy ever so I think it must be long. I have got to the stage now where little fits so I am actually looking forward to having more of a choice of what to…
It’s been four weeks since my last pregnancy update. A lot seems to have happened since then and it feels like an age ago and, to be honest, I am closer to 33 weeks than 32 but I thought I had better press publish before the baby actually makes an appearance. We’ve had Boo’s birthday…
Late last year, I received a very exciting email from Organix asking me to be part of their blogger team in 2017 and take part in my very own Organix No Junk Journey. As a mother, I am always looking at ways to help my children (and myself) eat more healthily so of course I…
I love babies. All the babies and, even though I am beyond grateful for this latest baby growing inside me, as I near the end of my pregnancy, I am getting fed up. So, rather than wallow in self-pity at my beach whale kinder surprise appearance and the fact that it is an effort to…

The birthdays of your own children can often be a bittersweet thing. Each passing year means your babies are growing up. Finding their own way in the big wide world and slowly moving away from you as the centre of their universe. I am being dramatic I suppose. My children are still small but with…
Before I start this post, I need to say, I don’t *need* much for baby number three. Yes a new mattress for the Moses basket and crib. Nappies, possibly bottles and a new changing mat but none of them are terribly exciting. I also want another pram but that is a story for another…
January is traditionally a bit of a depressing month for most people. Many of us over-eat, over-drink and over-spend over the Christmas period leaving us feeling lethargic and poor come the New Year. It may be because I’m pregnant this year but I don’t actually feel so bad. So I’ve come up with my own…
