Photo by Alicia Petresc on Unsplash I’m so pleased that we have a new Royal baby to coo over. Whilst I think the name is a little ordinary I’m sure the new Royal baby will be anything but with parents such as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. As a mum myself I can’t help but love seeing…
We’re at a happy stage in our lives right now. We have a 36 month old and a 16 month old which I suppose means we have two toddlers – scary, but fun. Pregnancy seems a long time ago and whilst I would love to add a third to our nest I’m not sure that…

So on Monday the day finally came when we would get to meet our new baby. We dropped Edward off with a friend and drove to the hospital. On arrival we found out that we were the third section booked that morning and there was the possibility of a couple of emergency sections too. We…
I haven’t had much time to think about whether we needed to attend ante-natal classes this time round. It’s only 20 months since we attended NCT classes which we didn’t find particularly useful, other than an opportunity to meet people local to us.
