I’m just a couple of weeks away from having my baby boy and already my thoughts are turning towards travel. Actually, who am I kidding, my thoughts are always on travel! But now I’m really starting to think about my first few trips with the baby. I have a couple of trips booked in the …
Pregnancy
If you’re lucky and you feel well enough to travel while you’re pregnant then there is nothing stopping you travelling the world. Most airlines restrict travel after 36 weeks (for an uncomplicated single pregnancy) but until then, the world is your oyster. Today we’re sharing our pregnancy travel essentials to help you travel in stress-free …
Yes, you read that right! A pregnancy update! If you missed it on Instagram, I recently announced we’re having our third baby! I’m pregnant with Baby #3! I should really get out of the habit of calling it Number 3 because I have a feeling that name will stick…a little like The Umbrella Academy …
I had high hopes for writing weekly pregnancy updates since I shared the news we’re expecting our third baby. I thought I’d be sharing all the nitty gritty details, the highs, the lows and everything in between. I thought I would have written pages of pregnancy updates already but here we are with the 16 …
In just a matter of months I’ll be having my third baby so it’s only natural I’m beginning to think about giving birth and birth stories! During my first two pregnancies I loved reading other women’s birth stories and relished in the gory details – both positive and negative. I’m a firm believer that the …
In October I’m expecting my third baby and my mind is already turning to my self-employed maternity leave. It isn’t easy to manage maternity leave when you work for yourself but I did OK with my first two babies and plan to do something similar again. I took my maternity leave the opposite way around …
I discovered the Lalabu Soothe Shirt on Instagram when I was just a few weeks pregnant. At the time I thought it looked like a cute and simple way to care for a little baby. What I didn’t realise was that this top would become a lifesaver for the first 7 weeks (so far!) of George’s …
It’s hard to give tips about anything to do with pregnancy because every woman is so different and everyone has a different experience. So today I’m going to share what travelling while pregnant has been like for me and some tips that made it easier. This post may not apply to every pregnant woman. I’m …
I’m sure you’ve read the title of this post and you’re thinking I’m crazy. How can pregnancy be anything like travelling? But stick with me and I might be able to convince you otherwise. Over the past 7 years my mind has been consumed by nothing but travel. Now over the past 7 months my …
Travelling with a bump, big or small, is a new and interesting experience. Even if you’re super lucky to avoid any side effects of being pregnant (lucky you), the fact is you’re still carrying extra weight and providing for a little one. Coping with the heat when you’re pregnant is a whole new ball game! …
If you’re not pregnant the title of this post might sound a little ridiculous. What’s the big deal? It’s just a little bit of extra weight, right? Wrong. Travelling during pregnancy is hard work when it involves traipsing around London. This is especially true if like me, you don’t live in the city so you have …
I’ve been keeping a little secret from you guys for the past few months. Actually, it’s not a little secret, it’s probably the biggest secret I’ve ever had. I don’t even know where to begin so I’m just going to blurt it right out… I’M PREGNANT!!! Yes, I’m having a baby. A baby! It still …
Thank you so much for all of your lovely comments and congratulations from Tuesday’s post. In case you missed it, yes, I’m pregnant! Despite a growing bump and five long months to get my head around this, I’m still totally in shock. I actually cannot believe I’m going to be a mum. Each kick and …
37 weeks. How have 37 weeks passed so quickly? I will have a baby in about 2 weeks time! When I first found out I was pregnant I thought the following 8 months would be the longest 8 months of my life. Imagine booking the most incredible holiday of your life and then the excitement …
This is a post I’ve been excited about sharing for about 9 months now. I’d like to introduce you to the new little man in my life. This is George! He was born on March 11th weighing a perfectly tiny 6 lb 11. He’s less than two weeks old and already he’s stolen our hearts …
