Where do all the Bepanthen samples go?
I’ve just collected my 6 month sample pack from Bounty. I love a freebie and that didn’t change during my pregnancy when I signed up to every mother and baby club I could find. I’ve benefited from lots of samples which have helped me choose the best products for my little boy. I’m brand aware…
The Gallery: Favourite Photo
The theme for The Gallery this week is your favourite photograph. I’ve been a total geek since Edward was born and everyday I’ve taken a photo of him. He has his own little blog which I use for updating the extended family on his progress. My iPhoto is creaking with the amount of photos I’ve…

Through a child's eyes
Having a child makes you see things in a different light. I have a new found appreciation for the world and my life. Today we looked after my 6 year old niece as well as our little one. We let her pick what she wanted to do and went to McDonalds for breakfast followed by…
End of the moses basket?
When I was pregnant and read current government advice that babies should sleep in your room until they are at least six months old I didn’t think we would manage this. We thought the baby would be too noisy or would wake too frequently and we would put the baby in it’s own room fairly…
