5 Hospital Bag Essentials

February 7, 2017 by farmerswifeandmummy 1 Comment

So I wrote what I put in my hospital bag when I had G. While I have forgotten everything (again) I thought this time, I would focus on the essentials. The things you could grab in five minutes if you had to. The non-negotiables. So here is my top five. 1. Baby wipes. I would … [Read more…]

If I was the Duchess of Cambridge…

May 3, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy 16 Comments

If I’d been the Duchess of Cambridge, hours after giving birth….. View image | gettyimages.com Forget the casual grab of Prince William’s hand, I’d have been leaning on carried down those steps by Hubster. The hair? Try not washed for three days and still having sweat from labour in it. Nice. The dress. Seriously. What … [Read more…]

G’s Caesarean Birth Story

February 26, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy 9 Comments

I wasn’t writing my blog when I had Boo so, apart from my tongue-in-check birth story, I have never really shared it. G has been a different matter. I feel I have shared quite a lot of this pregnancy so I have decided to fill you in with what happened on the day. If you read previous … [Read more…]

My Birth Plan, or not, as the case may be

January 27, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy Leave a Comment

If there’s one thing I learnt during my pregnancies, it is not to plan anything. Things happen. Plans can lead to disappointment and, as a new mother, this disappointment can really affect your mood and your life. So Thankfully Boo’s birth plan was relatively short: I do not want an epidural I want skin on … [Read more…]

What to put in your hospital bag

January 7, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy 4 Comments

Hospital bags, the holy grail of pregnancy. First time around, I had no idea what to pack and definitely took too much. I am going to try and just take the bare minimum this time and pack a supplementary bag at home so Hubster can bring it in, should I need it. Last time I … [Read more…]

My pregnancy-week 34

January 3, 2015 by farmerswifeandmummy 9 Comments

If another pregnant woman told me what I did myself recently, I would tell them off. That’s right, just after Christmas and over 34 weeks pregnant, I weighed myself. I ate for six when I was pregnant with Boo, foolishly thinking those excess calories would come out beautifully wrapped with the baby and I would … [Read more…]

My unbirth story

November 12, 2014 by farmerswifeandmummy 10 Comments

I find other people’s birth stories intriguing. A bit like when you have a mouth ulcer and you have to keep rubbing your tongue over it, even when it really hurts. Are they sadistic? Is that why we like to read them? Maybe we find solace in the fact other people went through a longer, more … [Read more…]
