Motherhood

They said I’d forget, but I remember

Those nights that seemed to never end. Rocking, feeding, changing, cuddling, standing, swaying, walking, crying, screaming... both him and I. I remember the fake smiles I gave when the camera came out. I desperately wanted to be happy, but it felt like such an effort. I remember telling everyone I…

Dear Mama in the 4th trimester

Being in the industry that I'm in, I'm exposed to a lot of new Moms and babies. Most often that not, I'm rather surprised at how well they're coping. Because in comparison to my memory of the 4th trimester, they seem to be doing pretty good. When I think back,…

Locally made baby products that rock!

Birth Stories

Coming to terms with my story

Photo by Annie Kruyer. Boobs, sex, birth stories. You might be thinking these are 3 weird subjects to put together. But hear me out. So before I had a baby I loved my boobs. When I fell pregnant, I loved my boobs even more. 2 extra cup sizes? Yes please!…

Sleep Deprivation

For all the sleep deprived mamas

This weeks post is a little different to most because I recorded myself talking on my iPhone! I have so many ideas and topics that I plan to blog but often don't get the time to sit down and write them, so I thought to try something new and see…
