Written on Wednesday... Today I am 38 weeks and 6 days pregnant. This pregnancy has been split into 3 clear-cut chunks. The first 11 weeks were so difficult. Filled with anxiety, no sleep and worry.

It was in aid of 2 incredible charities that are close to hers and my heart. They raised a phenomenal amount of money for SANDS and for ACT for SMA. Last... Continue Reading →
This last week and a bit has been sort of hellish for me. I have been trying really hard to be positive because I don't want to be the whinging pregnant lady. I am so grateful to be pregnant, I know how lucky I am that this baby is free from Spinal Muscular Atrophy so... Continue Reading →

I wrote this when I was pregnant with Eilys... I will add an update at the end. I think most mothers worry about how they will cope when adding a new baby to the family. It's a huge change, going from dealing with 1 little human to juggling 2 but it's an even bigger change... Continue Reading →
At the start of week 28 I was about 10 weeks into my work contract with 5 more weeks to go. And these were due to be busy and stressful weeks due to it being full on exam season working in a very busy college. Pregnancy was still being very kind to me. Apart from... Continue Reading →
