The weeks appear to be flying by at the moment and unintentionally I’ve let the blog slide a little. It’s been hectic to say the least. I’m fine, the bump is growing nearly hit the 20 week marker and it’s been a rollercoaster of a journey. My little ones are surprising me by … Continue Reading »
About Me

There’s always a reason and it wasn’t my intention to let the blog slide but having returned to work and having a pretty hectic life with two under three, the blog … Continue Reading »

Embarking on a new adventure, NurtiBullet
No this isn’t the end of the blog, if anything it’s more blog related than anything. Aside from our weaning journey, i’m on a journey of self development. Ok, that sounds pretty airy fairy.

Moments after birth a … Continue Reading »
Wipes, Wipes, Wipes
An essential item in every changing bag – wipes. We spend the best part of three years changing nappies and speed is of the essence, nobody enjoys the fly away poo, the explosion or just opening up the nappy and staring horrified at how such a tiny person can make such a big, smelly mess! … Continue Reading »
The health visitor
A visit from the health visitor seems to be somewhat controversial these days. Some are fantastic, provide really great non-judgemental advice and others flood you with information, tell you what’s right and wrong and can leave you feeling like a failure of a mother. I’ve met both types. The kind and caring one you would … Continue Reading »
