Everyone dreams of a good night’s sleep. What if your slumber could also help farmers? If you buy a pillow from Herdysleep, you will be doing just that. From the founders of Lake District brand Herdy, Herdysleep began using fairly traded Herdwick wool to make award winning mattresses and has recently expanded to pillows too-the…
Living on a farm is hard work. Getting up at the crack of dawn and back-breaking labour. Add to that sleep issues and you have a recipe for disaster. We all need sleep to function properly but most of us don’t get enough. As a result, we become grumpy and foggy. This is not all!…
When toddlers get to a certain age, parents often wonder when is it the right time to put them in a bed. Some cots turn into little beds and some people opt for an ordinary single bed. Whichever you choose, there is always the worry of the little ones falling out. We rushed with Boo…
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…

Things they don’t tell you about pregnancy number 576-dreams. All the dreams. They are just so vivid. As if you’re getting enough sleep as it is what with ligament stretching and toilet breaks, your mind is on over drive. From the day dreams when it is taking you six hours to actually get to sleep…
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…
