When Bob was a baby we went to Menorca. It was hard work as she was quite unsettled with the heat and the different food. We were in a hotel that was advertised as child friendly but, as it was out of season, the entertainment hadn’t started and the hotel was full of elderly couples. If Bob started to cry we would get funny looks from people and it made us very uncomfortable. We came home vowing not to go [click here to read on]

A Treat For The Mummies

We regularly review products but they are usually things for the family and mainly things for my babies. I love being able to spoil my little ones on a regular basis with exciting deliveries and treats throughout the year. When the postman arrives Bob gets very excited! Occasionally I am asked if I would like to review something for myself. This is such a treat as us mummies tend to get forgotten a lot of the time. I am so [click here to read on]

Bow's Birth Story - Day 2 (The Party)

I was still 1cm! I was told that the pessary could be left in for 30 hours so they said they would check my cervix again at 5.30pm when they removed it.

Bow's Birth Story - Day 1 (The Calm Before The Storm)

I spent a lot of last week writing about Bow’s birth. It took me a while to get into the right mindset and, if I am honest, I didn’t think I was ready to make sense of it all. I really wanted to publish his birth story before his development posts though so I sat down and started to write. Surprisingly, the words poured out of me. Unfortunately they didn’t stop! I wanted to publish his birth story as one [click here to read on]
