One day.
One day. One day in the future, I'll forget about today. One day, I'll forget why you made me laugh and why you made me cry. One day, I'll forget changing your nappy. One day, I'll forget cleaning up when you've thrown your food from your highchair. One day, I'll forget about the mundane bits … Continue reading One day.
A Letter to My Husband…
I'd just like to say that I'm not usually one for being soppy. Yes, I'll tell people I love my husband, but I'm much more comfortable with a sarcastic comment as opposed to a full-blown display of love. However, after these last 13 months, I think my husband deserves to know everything, and I'm much … Continue reading A Letter to My Husband…
No. Sleep. Til… Who Knows?!
I just want to start this blog by saying that it will always get better. Even if it takes a long time, it will. That is what I tell myself every time E won't go to sleep, or wakes up every 30 minutes, or won't be put back in her cot when I've finally got … Continue reading No. Sleep. Til… Who Knows?!
Jealous? Me too.
I'm very much an advocate of mums supporting mums; I believe none of us should judge the other as we're all battling through every day and you don't know what anyone is going through. However, that doesn't mean that I don't get envious of other mums. Being a mum is hard and you're forever hoping … Continue reading Jealous? Me too.
Motherhood: Year One
The first year of my baby's life? Completed it, mate. Maybe a bit of an odd thing to reference (The Inbetweeners, for those of you who aren't in the know) when talking about E's first year, but I’m going with it... If I'm completely honest, this last year has been a massive blur. It's very … Continue reading Motherhood: Year One
The Little Things
As E’s first birthday is fast approaching (T minus 5 days) I’ve found myself reminiscing about the past year and appreciating a lot of things that I haven’t even really thought about before. The first being just how much she really has changed. I know every parent says this and it is very true, but … Continue reading The Little Things
Mum can be the loneliest number
Being a mum can be a lonely place, even though you’re begging for some alone time.
Opinions, opinions, everywhere.
As my favourite band says “opinions like arseholes on days like today, everyone’s got one” and don’t we all know it! Now, I know one of the biggest pet peeves of a new mum is the sudden influx of opinions of everyone you’ve ever met on how to raise your kid. But, seriously, it’s true. … Continue reading Opinions, opinions, everywhere.
And in to 2020…
So, this is it. The end of another year and what a year it's been. On the 31st of January, I gave birth to the most amazing little girl. I knew that it would be hard work, but I think nothing can ever prepare you for the mental and physical changes you're going to go … Continue reading And in to 2020…
