Mummy Confessions: I have never considered myself to be extremely open about all that goes on with the human body, but there is something that needs to be said for reusable sanitary products and underwear. So, as life would have it, I’m on blood thinners for the time being (after an experience I will never forget) and that always makes for a lot of eventfulness for nearly two weeks out of the month. It just seems like it’s never-ending, and I love finding any products that may help to lessen the stress of leaking. I have been using one brand Read More The post Let’s Talk About Period Underwear ..read more

Mummy Confession: I’m not entirely panicking about being stuck at home with the kids. In fact, I rather enjoy the time spent together without too much of a schedule. Times happen in our lives when we may be a little isolated, or unable to get out and about as much as we would like. In times where it may be difficult or impossible to get out of the house (or out too much in public), it’s great to have some ideas and resources. In light of the current situation, I’ve included multiple resources which are available to parents as well Read More The post Help, I’m Stuck At Home With the Kids: What ..read more

Mummy Confession: I often refer to motherhood and parenthood as something “bittersweet.” Sometimes it seems more one way than the other, but it’s always been that touch of both for me personally. These are my thoughts on the matter, do you feel the same? Being a mum is bittersweet. (Being a parent, really) We love watching them grow and seeing what they become and how they learn, but at the same time we wish they would stay little forever. We wish they would love snuggles and kisses and enjoy our company every single day, and give those random hugs and Read More The post Why Motherhood Is Bitt ..read more

Mummy Confession: Before I had children, I didn’t think too much about social media, the internet and how it may mean being more restrictive on what I share online.  It’s the first day of school and you are SO excited that little Max is setting off on a new adventure! You take a photo in front of the school sign and share it to Facebook so all your friends can see just how grown up he looks with that giant backpack. We all love sharing about our life and our family with friends on social media, but we need to Read More The post Back to School Photos, the Internet and Social Media: What You Nee ..read more

Mummy Confession: While I would love to think that this is a simple yes or no, ever since the eventful past months, this is now a loaded question Now, I’m not one to discuss intimate details of my marriage, especially in regards to whether we are trying for children or if they were “planned,” but I figured it is pretty relevant to my most recent adventure to discuss the potential for kids, and it seems many people are pretty interested to know whether our family will be growing in the future. It’s simply a loaded question at the moment, and Read More The post “Do You Want Any More Kids” Is a L ..read more

Mummy Confession: I’m not certain much is different, as life seems to have moved on. A new normal will just have to be normal for now! It’s been three months since I had a stent placed in a collapsed vein. Three months since I woke from surgery with pain registering on the scale of 9-10 and had to slowly wean off of painkillers when the pain became a bit more manageable. Three months of wearing compression stockings, taking daily blood thinners and sleeping restlessly during the night with a pillow propped between my legs. Three months where I feel so Read More The post How Life Has Changed Si ..read more

Mummy Confession: I worry that someday I may forget those who I love most. I fear for the future. It’s in my genes. A family history of Alzheimer’s has been in my family’s lineage for a couple generations now, and I’m worried. I’m worried that I will forget. I’m worried that I won’t realise when I’ve forgotten. This is why I’ve written a little some of my thoughts on the matter and a message to those I love. I’m worried I’ll forget who I am, and where I’m going. I already seem to forget more than most people, and feebly Read More The post A Letter to Those I Love When I Forget: Alzheimer’s and ..read more
