How often are you looking at the time? It’s strange that we have been forced into a situation where we stay in and often have little to do or struggle to get through the demands of the day. I think I have looked at my watch more times then ever before! I fall in theContinue reading “Disappearing hope!”

Obsessive Mummy
We all know the ones right? The ones that from the moment they fall pregnant they bombard us with every tiny detail, be it in person or via social media. You know the scan pictures, the bump at this week, the baby just kicked, morning sickness, tiredness and then the baby arrives!!! It becomes constantContinue reading “Obsessive Mummy”
Bitter sweet
We should have been given a scan photo today of our embryos implanted safely. We should have come out and rested, wishing and hoping for the embryos to stick! Wishing that this time they would stick in the right places! We should have been filled with hope today. Embarking on our two week wait againContinue reading “Bitter sweet”
Challenge accepted…
Ultimately I know that most people in the world don’t post anything on social media with malicious intent but rather to support each other or raise confidence especially at present with the pandemic. I admit it’s a very beautiful thing to do for each other. However my heart breaks a little more when I seeContinue reading “Challenge accepted…”
Reflection in the mirror
When I got pregnant naturally the first time I was a healthy weight. I have always been the kind of woman who is harsh on herself. I think most of us are. You never see what others see in you and we are our own worst critic. I have since fallen pregnant naturally again aContinue reading “Reflection in the mirror”

Maybe because it’s not the norm for a child to die before their parents or maybe it’s the fear of this happening that preventsContinue reading “How many weeks were you?”
A letter to my embryos

It’s a crazy world here at the moment as a virus called Covid-19 (Coronavirus) is making people ill and lots are dying. We are at present in a National Emergency state and our Prime Minister has askedContinue reading “A letter to my embryos”
I survived
I made it through Mother’s Day as I often do and it reminds me of how resilient I am. This year was very different as we all know right now we are living in a very different world. This year my heart also felt heavy for all the new mums that didn’t get to celebrateContinue reading “I survived”
Selfishly heartbroken
This a stream of consciousness blog where I have not sat down and thought for hours what I want to say or indeed how I should put it. I’m going to be honest and hope that it doesn’t come across as bitter because I don’t believe I am that person but I’m aware it couldContinue reading “Selfishly heartbroken”
International women’s Day
A quick shout out to acknowledge this day. What amazes me is the strength that I see in most women I come across. When I sit in the support group surrounded by all the others that have lost their babies I am overwhelmed with their ability to cope. I am impressed by their resilience andContinue reading “International women’s Day”
