Yet again I’m late with this update as yet again it’s almost time for the next one, in another week. J & his brother are totally siphoning my energy at the moment so I just can’t keep up. Never mind! I’ve posted before how he had behavioural problems at nursery but recently he has been getting a good report when I collect him; I’m thinking maybe the Pitstop we have been attending has done some magic on him, but then I think well he is pretty much still just the same at home! Maybe they are dealing better with him than I …

Slimming World weigh in #24 – the one where…
After my weigh in last week where I was actually quite shocked at my small gain I was right back on plan and was determined to get my holiday weight off and grab that 2 stone award I have been chasing for the last few weeks. We didn’t have any plans other than a barbecue at my mum’s at the weekend where I knew I would stuff my face (!) so I tried to keep my syns down for the rest of the week for some damage limitation. Indeed I did my stuff my face and I have absolutely no idea …
Slimming World weigh in #23 – the one where it’s not as bad as I thought…
As I mentioned in my last update a couple of weeks ago, I was on holiday last week so I didn’t weigh in.

I could really tell by the end of my holiday that I had been …
Potty & toilet training with J
Over J’s last few updates (well over the last year or so in fact, on & off) I have written about his potty training progress. He started potty training last year when we thought he was showing an interest but he was really sporadic with it and so we just left it. Just before Christmas he had started showing an interest again and so Nanna bought him a Thomas Tank musical potty which seemed to do the trick, and he finally had his first wee on it just before he turned three! After that he was a bit more regular on …
{Guest post} Laura – Weight Loss and the Pain of Trying to Conceive
Today’s guest post is from Laura, a Mummy of two who blogs over at Laura’s Lovely Blog. She talks about a journey I am very familiar with, losing weight in order to conceive. It’s funny, I spent most of my 20s trying not to get pregnant. Having a mini panic attack if there was a slip up. Because in my mind there was no way I was ready. Of course after all the contraception fastidiousness it seemed to me that as soon as we started trying to fall pregnant, that it would be easy, that it would just happen. That the little spermy …
