Nearly 10 weeks with newborn

How has 10 weeks passed since I gave birth!! I thought I would do a blog post each week, how naive I was. I totally forgot how demanding a newborn is!! All they do is eat, sleep, pee and poop, but you forget the mental haze from no sleep!! So here is a very quick … Continue reading Nearly 10 weeks with newborn →

My home birth story

Last week we welcomed our beautiful little girl Aisling, at 41 +1, all 7lbs even. I had Aisling at home, a decision I made early in my pregnancy, as I had such anxiety about giving birth without my husband present due to all the current restrictions on maternity hospitals in Ireland. It was without a … Continue reading My home birth story →

Starting to Nest

With only a few weeks to go until baby no.2 arrives, I have officially entered the "nesting period". Yes everything in sight with some dust is getting a clean! I even got a haircut last week! I am losing all that lovely 2nd trimester energy I had and most weekends now involve napping. Isobel is … Continue reading Starting to Nest →

The things I do…

For a bit of peace! I found myself in the bath last night with Isobel. She has been so cranky lately and "No" has become her new favourite word. So to encourage her into the bath, I convinced her it would be fun for mommy to join. Of course she told me I was too … Continue reading The things I do… →

What a Year

Not sure where to begin with summarising the year we have had. Looking back at photos of Isobel from last Xmas it seems she has doubled in size. We began working from home on 19th March and have continued that way since. We spent 3.5 months working and co-parenting Isobel whilst childcare was closed. This … Continue reading What a Year →

Time to put the feet up

I finally got my Xmas holidays from work today and boy am I ready to say goodbye to 2020! I cannot wait to spend the next few weeks with Isobel, as she gets spoiled by aunt, uncles, grannies and grandad! I love seeing her mix with her older cousins and I wasn't long finding out … Continue reading Time to put the feet up →

Women be nice to mothers please!

I think you are either one of those people who can respond to criticism with a witty remark, or let it boil up inside you and hours later come up with about 20 witty remarks. Unfortunately I fall into the latter category! So a few weeks ago when I was dropping Isobel off to creche … Continue reading Women be nice to mothers please! →

Happy IWD

To all the single mothers, working mothers, stay at home mothers, mothers without children, women who cannot conceive, give yourself a pat on the back. Today is a day to reflect … Continue reading Happy IWD →

Back to Routine

I've had a lovely two week break, but tomorrow its back to reality. I cuddled Isobel for a lot longer tonight knowing I won't be spending all day with her. We haven't had this much time off together as a family since I was on maternity leave, so there maybe a few tears in the … Continue reading Back to Routine →
