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…
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…
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…
Well, I never thought I’d get to 37 weeks but here I am. I have had a much better week with less appointments and more family time and it really has made all the difference to my mood. We even got a sneaky family trip to Knowsley Safari Park this weekend which was lovely and…
After last week’s rotter, you would be forgiven to think I would get a good week but unfortunately it was not to be. Bear with me though, it does get better. After being admitted for raised blood pressure, they wanted to monitor me even more closely. I now know the inside of the antenatal day…
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…
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…
I’ve been thinking a lot recently about the differences between being pregnant with G and this time. Your first pregnancy is the most different because you can do what you feel like doing and, if that happens to be nothing, then so be it. You can nap when you’re tired, eat junk for lunch if…
I’m a bit late with my 28 week update as it fell right over Christmas. However 28 weeks I am and *klaxon* I am officially in the third trimester. Yipee. I had a 28 week appointment at antenatal this week as well as the first of three growth scans to check that the baby is…
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…
