Smile

Smiling is something that comes naturally to a human being. It’s a reflex that is within us from a very early age. When we were young most of us will have laughed and smiled for the majority of the day. Yet as we get older, we start to feel more and more self conscious of…

My Baby Favourites

This is my first favourites post so might not be very good but I have always wanted to write one and what better time to do it then now when I have a few baby favourites. First up Angelcare Bath Seat I had seen this bath seat a few times on people Facebook pages and floating about on…

The Last 11 Weeks

Since The minute I was born I have always been a daughter, a granddaughter, a sister and a niece. I have never not been one of those things so I have never known how not to be one. To a degree I guess I have never had to "learn" how to be any of those…

On My Mind Recently

It has been eight weeks since my Little Love arrived. Boy what an eight weeks it has been. The weeks since he has been here have simultaneously been the longest and quickest weeks of my life. Kind of the same as pregnancy I guess. My life seems to have become a constant blur of changing…

After Birth

22nd March 2018. I had just given birth. When he was born, my son was 7lbs 13oz and 53cm tall. My emotions were all over the place. I kept looking down at the tiny, gunky person lying on my chest. My brain couldn't quite seem to figure out that this tiny person was the same…

Leo Jack and Me (The birth of my Baby)

On the 21st March 2018, at 8.30am, I went to the hospital to have my labour induced. All being well, I wasn't going to be leaving again without baby. Hubby was with me as usual and again, things got really real, really quick. I couldn't believe that our baby would be here soon. The last few…

The Pregnancy

I realise that in my last post I never said anything about the results from the ultrasound I had... I'll get to that in a bit. Following on from my previous post, I had just discovered I was pregnant. I was genuinely in shock and stood staring at the test for a good ten minutes…

On Babies (and why the lack of)

So I figured it was about time I wrote about what's been going on for the last 16 months. This may be in a couple of different posts as I have way to much to say on the subject. In January 2017 I wrote a post about my lack of babies. As in I had none despite…

On Babies (or my lack of)

(From 12th January 2017) For the last few weeks I haven’t been 100% if I was going to post this blog. I’ve re-written it twice already and still don’t know what the point of it is or what I want from posting this. I have just been feeling more and more like I need to…

My Siblings

(From 29th December 2016) I recently had a discussion with husband about what it was like to have siblings. To be honest I had never really thought about it much before because I have never not had a sibling. Husband is an only child but I have a sister and four brothers. Not all from…
