On Monday I attended therapy again. I had a few sessions after my PND with J, and my miscarriage and they helped me so much. When I went to the GP after my breakdown last year I decided that as well as medication, I would like to see the counsellor again as I knew even just one session would help me, just talking about things. I went to the session mainly ready to talk about my social anxiety, as that is what is affecting the most since my major depression started. It just stops me from doing things, going places, as I’m …
My four year blogaversary! Giveaway #6 (CLOSED)
Welcome to day six of my four year blogaversary giveaways! I hope you’ve enjoyed entering for the prizes on offer so far. As I said on yesterday’s giveaway post, this one is for the older babies. As you will probably know, N is ten months old so we have recently been going through the weaning stage and have reviewed some snacks, cereals, etc. from Organix which is one of our favourite brands. So for this giveaway I’m happy to offer you a weaning bundle! (Not necessarily what is pictured). Just when you and your baby are in a confident routine with milk …
Little man N’s development check (and a health visitor rant)
Yesterday we had N’s 9-12 month development check. I’m sure J didn’t have his until he was around one year, but never mind. Being a first time Mum with J, I took everything as gospel and was in a rush for him to do everything, but with N I have been much more relaxed and just got on with it (and let him get on with it) as I know each individual baby/child develops at their own rate and just because they don’t keep up with their peers, or conform to some chart, it doesn’t necessarily mean there is anything …
My four year blogaversary! Giveaway #5 (CLOSED)
So here’s day five of my four year blogaversary giveaways! Just one more to go tomorrow – another one for the (older) babies – but this one is for the parents! Whether we like to admit it or not we all have bad days, and most likely some difficulty switching off at night, even when we’re shattered from a manic day. That’s where RESCUE Remedy and RESCUE Night come in handy to settle you for a well rested night. For this giveaway I have to offer two lucky winners a bottle of RESCUE Remedy spray & a pack of RESCUE …
Little man N at 10 months old
Ten months old. My youngest baby will be turning one this year! In less than two months! (And then for another 18 days I will be a Mummy of two under three). He’ll not be a baby for much longer – heck, it feels like he’s outgrown the baby stage already, sometimes. He hasn’t been weighed since the last time but I’m not too worried. He has his ‘health check’ soon anyway so we’ll find out soon anyway. I can’t imagine he will have gained an awful lot though as he never stops moving and is a proper speed crawler! He’s still …
