The journey through our latest pregnancy and looking back at our last
If you compare the blog posts I write between now and two years ago, there is a bit of a difference. Two years ago, I had just had our second baby and I wrote loads about babies, having a newborn and all the things that come with that. Fast forward two years and our third … [Read more…]
Having gone through teething twice before, it is definitely not something I am either wishing for or looking forward to. Thankfully though, this time around, I am armed. With an award winning Matchstick Monkey teether. Born when mumpreneur, Katie felt like she couldn’t help her daughter enough when she was teething, Matchstick Monkey was developed … [Read more…]
When I was pregnant with my first child in 2011, I naively thought that you have a baby, learn how to care for it and that’s it. Six years on and three babies later, I now realise parenting is a continuous journey of discovery and change. That little baby grows into a boisterous toddler and … [Read more…]
I am currently seven weeks in to parenting three. I forgot so much about babies in the two year gap between G and Baby J. It could have been self preservation-no wants to remember the deliciousness of functioning on 40 minutes sleep a night. There have been moments though where I have laughed to myself … [Read more…]
I am a little late with my first month update for Baby J but I have had a good excuse. I have been drinking in every last drop of these newborn days. Being a parent third time around and knowing how quickly time goes, I am not missing a thing this time. The month started … [Read more…]

Baby J is now a month old and, before baby brain takes over my head forever, I thought now might be the right time to share my birth story. We last left off with my 37 week pregnancy update. Like I said previously, my local hospital now gives any mother who is due to give … [Read more…]
My first two pregnancies resulted in a vaginal birth and a caesarean section (due to a breech baby) in that order so, with number three, when I found out I would be having another section, I wasn’t exactly over joyed. I am now almost four weeks-post surgery and I can honestly say it was a … [Read more…]
The problem with being a second child is that many of your clothes and toys will be hand-me-downs from your older sibling. This has been the case here, despite Boo bing a girl and G being a boy. Gender lines are airbrushed a bit here with G often seen wearing pink sleepsuits. Now imagine being … [Read more…]
So we have a bit of news on the #farmbaby2017 front. Little Baby J made his appearance last Thursday weighing a dinky 6ib 14 which I am pleased with considering I was only 37 weeks. The caesarean was actually a much better experience than last time but Baby had to go into special care for … [Read more…]
