I survived my hysterectomy

 

Not going to beat about the bush with this one - at the age of 35 I had a hysterectomy.

My first Welsh Mother's Day

 

This was my first Mother's Day where my mum was in England and I was in Wales.

My husband, our two boys and I relocated to Wales last year.

Birth plan, what birth plan?!

 

When I was pregnant with my eldest, I was adamant on how I wanted the birth to be.

I wanted a water birth with no pain relief - and wrote specific instructions in my maternity notes for the midwife to be able to read when I went into labour.

Two under two

 

Our eldest boy was born 13 September 2013 and your youngest boy was born 13 October 2014 – and there’s exactly a 13 month age gap – 13, Unlucky for some but not us.

The Potty Diaries

 

If only potty training was like the cute picture on the front of the potty training book I bought – the child on there looks so happy to be sat on that potty – my child screamed the moment the potty was mentioned – most definitely not a happy child!

More about me and what my blog is about

 

So just a little about me - I'm 37, and a stay at home mum to two boys, aged three and a half and two and a half, with a 13 month age gap between them - our days are filled with fun, laughter and tears and I wanted to share our crazy journey.
