The journey through our latest pregnancy and looking back at our last
Six months pregnant sounds a bit official really, doesn’t it? I like to think of it as the time you can use it to your advantage-you know make excuses for things like forgetting your name and you children’s date of birth. Since my last update, I feel like the bump itself has blossomed. At my…
Gestational diabetes is on the rise. With ageing parents and the lifestyles we lead, more and more women are being diagnosed. I had polycystic ovaries in my early 20s which is also more of a risk factor-something to do with how you produce insulin. I wasn’t particularly over weight when I got pregnant with Boo…
When you decide to have another baby, there are lots of things to consider. Whether it’s number three or 103, have you got room, will you need a new car, can you afford it, can you cope are all things that most people think about. I must admit, I had my blind-I-want-another-baby head on so…
I can’t believe I’m over half way through this pregnancy. In fact, it’s taken so long to write this that I am actually 21 weeks now. Time has been flying yet I haven’t really done a pregnacy update yet. The first 20 weeks have been challenging. The first 14 weeks (from around week six) were…
Can you believe I’m almost half way through this pregnancy? I’m almost 19 weeks and, having had the other two at 38 weeks, that means I’m half way. It only feels like five minutes since I announced that our third baby is on the way. When I was pregnant with Boo we didn’t want to…
There comes a point in the life of every mother when something happens. For me, G was about 15 months old. I was totally fed up with the baby change bag. It matched the pram and did its job but I yearned for the day when I could go back to a beautiful handbag. I…
So you all know about the hopeful arrival of #FarmBaby2017 early next year and, while well into my second trimester, the first trimester is still close enough to touch. So I thought I’d share with you the top five reasons of early pregnancy. 1.Sickness. Most people feel a bit sick at some point in pregnancy….
Since I knew I could have children, I have always wanted more. I had Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in my early twenties so fertility was something I never took for granted. If you count the pregnancies that didn’t make it, I have been pregnant every year since 2010. After having G, we decided to just see…
As an official ambassador for Summer Infant (or a Summer Mama as we are affectionately known), I am always interested to hear about the products they have and how they can help parents on this rocky road of bringing up our children. I a huge fan of their video baby monitor which you can read…
Prams. Oh they are a worry. Have you chosen the right one? Will it serve the purposes you need it for? I have written quite a few posts about prams and pushchairs. I know I have a problem and, I am not going to lie, this may not be my last pram post. I just…
