Losing The Baby Weight
Well, I jumped on the scales and was a whisper below 10 stone at 9 stone 13lb. So not too bad.
Walked girls to nursery, a round trip of around a mile…pushing Molly in the Phil and Ted; and enjoyed the bacon sandwich that was awaiting my return – cheers Kev!
Nothing since, apart from copious amounts [...]
Losing the Baby Weight
Can’t believe that it is nearly three months since I did my last Blog on this topic.
I had been doing really well and had got down to 9stone 9lbs, without too much effort. Just resisting chocolate and refined sugary and walking the girls to nursery.
However, last month, things have slipped! Have been out quite a [...]
Night Terrors in Children – Daisy’s First One in Ages.
Despite experiencing them before with Daisy and despite predicting she would have one (no nap today) it still caught me off guard when the sounds of uncontrollable sobbing started.
Poor little thing…went upstairs and she was trashing about, saying no and crying her little heart out.
I dampened down her hair and made reassuring noises in her [...]
Losing the baby weight
After initially losing 2 (ish) stone after giving birth – mostly due to breastfeeding Molly for what seemed like 24/7! – the weight has been creeping back on and know if I don’t do anything about it I will feel even more unhappy with my body.
I weighed myself this morning and am 10 stone 3.8 [...]
Girls Sharing a Bedroom, Night 13
Thought it was going to be unlucky 13! No nap for Daisy, again, today so needless to say she was exhausted and grumpy and was fighting going to bed. That was until it was Molly’s bedtime, then of course she wanted to be in their room turning the light on and being noisy. Bless her, [...]
Girls Sharing a Bedroom Night 8
Guess it was too much to hope for that things would continue as well as they had been. Am writing this at 9.30pm and Daisy (2yrs 8mths) is lying on the sofa…she did make it to bed and appeared all relaxed after 3 (just one more Mummy…) stories, but she was tricking me…ten minutes of [...]
Work / Family / Childcare Balance
Am officially back to work on Monday , albeit self employed and working from home, after my maternity leave for daughter number 2. Although the relaunch of the website is exciting and hope will be a success, it has brought to the fore again the need to balance childcare with ability to be efficient with [...]
Children Sharing a Bedroom
Night 5 of Daisy (2yrs 8months) and Molly (6 months) sharing their bedroom and have just come back downstairs after feeding Molly . What a difference those few nights make! Night one I was convinced that the slightest sound from one would wake the other, so let Daisy stay up until she was exhausted and [...]
False Positive Pregnancy Test
Well, I can only assume that I was pregnant, but then miscarried before things had a chance to progress or that there was something wrong with the test. The reason I think this is that two subsequent tests have been very positive in their negativity! To be fair, the first test I did, did only [...]
