Keep Calm and Hypnobirth

Taylor is now five months old and I still haven’t managed to put into words his entire birth story, it’s something so close to me and personal that finding the best way to share this part of me isn’t easy. It wasn’t horrid, far from it. It also wasn’t the birth I had hoped for, I spent it strapped to a monitor on a bed, instead of in a pool with twinkling lights overhead.
I did however have the many hypnobirthing techniques I had learnt from The Calm Birth School.

Book Review: Orla Kiely baby journal

Before Taylor was born I knew I wanted to document as much as I could, as the youngest of three my parents didn’t have any baby books or albums of myself. It’s common for the first born to have these as you have more time to do them. Wanting something nice we can look back on in years to come but knowing I wouldn’t have enough time to create my own I went on the hunt for the perfect baby book, I trawled the internet and book stores for months and eventually I found it, the Orla Kiely Baby Journal!

Review: The Silver Cross Special Edition Surf 2 – City Living at its Finest!

For the last four weeks we’ve been test driving the stunning Silver Cross Special Edition Surf 2 in Eton Grey, retailing at £800 and boasting it’s Best of British styling it’s certainly one to consider when choosing your next set of wheels.

Before becoming a mum I didn’t realise how important my choice of pram would be. Every mum I spoke to during my pregnancy wanted to know which pram we were getting, what brand, would we have a carrycot, does it have a matching bag?

Review: The Medela Swing and Harmony Breastpumps

Since before Taylor was born I knew that, if I could, I wanted to breastfeed. With the help and support of Medela we’ve been doing great. Taylor is now 14 weeks old and exclusively breastfed, I always look at him in wonderment when he feeds at the sheer joy I feel knowing he has grown, developed and thrived solely through me.
I’ve been using the Medela Swing Electric and Harmony Manual breastpump to start stock-piling my milk, I’m due to continue my driving lessons so I need to prepare for spending time away from Tails.
