To the little girl that’s full of sass, Two! How on earth did that happen? What a year it has been, little one. You’ve gone from a bubba crawling around, to a little girl tottering around like you own the place! We've quickly discovered how fiercely independent you are - something that I absolutely love … Continue reading A letter to my two-year-old daughter

My Jack-a-lacka, Last week you sat there and said "I'm just so bored of being five", well now you're finally six! Another year has passed in the blink of an eye.

My darling baby boy, I cannot explain how excited you have been to turn 5, the other day I asked you what you’re most looking forward to about being 5, and you jumped up and said “that I’m finally going to be older than 4!” Well, now we’re finally here at long last! I feel … Continue reading A letter to my five-year-old

The lost maternity leave

June 21, 2021June 21, 2021Leave a comment

Being pregnant in the middle of a lockdown was hard enough, but nothing compares to the harsh reality of raising a new-born baby at a time when I was barely allowed to leave the house.

My home birth story

January 4, 2021January 4, 2021Leave a comment

Here we go, let me tell you all about the day my darling Thea came in to the world. I woke up at around 3.30am with some pain; I thought nothing of it at first, I had reached that point in the pregnancy where the nights were so uncomfortable, so I just assumed that I … Continue reading My home birth story

My bub, pooch, pud, baby, Jack, Four, how has this happened? It only feels like yesterday we were celebrating you turning three.

Having the baby at home

August 17, 20201 Comment

During my first pregnancy, there was no doubt that I was going to give birth anywhere other than the hospital, to me that was the safest place, I didn’t even consider having Jack at home. But this time, my thoughts are the complete opposite and I think having this baby at home is the way … Continue reading Having the baby at home

Pregnancy in a lockdown

May 21, 2020May 21, 2020Leave a comment

When you’re pregnant, all you want to do is shout it from the rooftops, look at teeny tiny baby clothes in the shops and show off your bump to the world. Unfortunately, this is far from what my pregnancy has been like so far. It’s a very strange time for everyone at the moment (understatement … Continue reading Pregnancy in a lockdown

The two pink lines

May 2, 2020May 1, 20201 Comment

It was Monday 3rd February at about 7pm, I had just put Jack to bed and then I peed on the obligatory life changing stick, then we waited - until there it was, the two faint pink lines. I knew straight away that it was a positive result, but Shane didn’t believe it because the … Continue reading The two pink lines

My baby boy, Well, where do we even begin? I just can’t believe you’re three, time really needs to slow down! Jack, you’ve been an absolute dream to be around this year.
