Mum thoughts. I must be doing something wrong because:

I can’t find time to: shower / clean the house / put the washing away / cook healthy meals / eat / drink / food shop / tend to my relationship / rest / sleep  That mum over there is: still breastfeeding / so slim so quickly / fresh faced/ coping / reading a book while her baby naps / brave / nailing it That…

Write then. Hello from Majorca and why I’ve started therapy…

So, since the capers of the April ectopic pregnancy and going back to work and pulling myself together (caveat: ha! within reason) countless people have told me that I should be a writer. That I should maybe write a book. But I’m like, apart from being honest about the IVF, endometriosis and our cervical ectopic pregnancy, what else is there? I’m pretty sure I don’t…

The inside of my head this morning

OH GOD. Oh god, oh god, oh god. What if I never get pregnant and have a baby? What then hey? Unthinkable. That can’t happen. It just can’t. I think I’d break if it did. My heart, my spirit. I’m 35 and you know what they say when a woman is 35. It’s all downhill from now on fertility wise. I can actually see me…

Sundayitis and my new work in progress sleep routine

FROSTY SUNDAYS ARE FOR WALKING AND THAT’S GOOD FOR THE SPIRIT

So is this just a 35 year old thing or is walking just absolutely great? Today I went for a Sunday ramble around Ivinghoe Beacon with Mr G and Rupert and it was an utter delight. It was sunny and cold with frost still on the ground. I’ve really got into wandering around in the last year. I’ve even sort of considered the nordic walking…

Hi! Thanks for swinging by…You’ll see posts about being a new mum after years of trying and fumbling through all that, some bits about wellbeing and likely a house extension project because are you even a blogger if you don’t do up a house? I live a little north of London with Mr G, Elodie Willow our precious bubs and Rupert the mini sausage dog.
