10 things about fighting for fertility that you’re not sure you want to know April 5, 2013
Fertility. Such an innocuous word. It never ceases to amaze me that I spent most of my 20s trying not to get pregnant and now that I am in a place where small humans can exist in comfort, things are not going so well. It is quite easy to get upset, depressed, miserable, shouty, angry, [...]
Ice, Ice Baby March 15, 2013
This has to be the best press release I’ve ever received. And the most cackles I’ve ever made in an office full of people. First, before you start reading, start by playing this video. Ready? GO Welcome to Snowballs, a range of underpants designed to keep a man’s testicles at the optimum temperature for [...]
The Doodle Doll March 12, 2013
About a month and a half ago, Tabitha drew the most awesome doll ever. Then she drew on the reverse so it looked like a three dimensional character from a cartoon, cut it out and handed it to me with an expression of total pride. I was blown away. I’m 40 and I can’t draw [...]

Fertility is no joke March 11, 2013
I’ve been trying to have baby number two for two years now. I’ve had two miscarriages and I’ve had crap fertility doctors – just wait until I tell you about the moron I saw in December. His incompetence was staggering, outmatched, in fact, only by his arrogance and sexism. What the hell is with patronising [...]
The Three F’s November 21, 2012
It’s been a while since my last confession post. This is because I have just moved country and been unable to do more than wade through piles of admin, work like a maniac, keep up with my family and dribble onto my keyboard. I wish I had blogged the move. There were moments when I [...]
Little Diva: Twist and curl June 26, 2012
This hairstyle looks amazing and is quite tough to get right. Well, it is for me anyway. I struggle to keep Squidge’s hair in that twist for any length of time, her hair is so fine and curly that it untwists itself really easily. Fortunately, there is the wonder of hair spray and spray-in conditioner. [...]
It’s Oh So Quiet…. June 13, 2012
Yes, it has been VERY quiet here on the site. I’m sorry. Half term is always a juggle a minute and I have been trying to keep work and gorgeous child happy. Sort of successfully. This past two weeks, 12 days to be exact, I have also been fighting two of my personal demons – [...]
Little Diva: Twist and Plait May 14, 2012
This cute girls hairstyle name had us giggling away like mad this morning. Well, I was giggling but when I played the song, Twist and Shout, to Squidge she soon got the joke. This is a very easy and cute hairstyle that’s perfect for manic Monday mornings. You don’t need longer than five minutes from [...]
