Yesterday I watched the video for the new Cussons “Mum & Me” range. Not many adverts about pregnancy really show the truth, I believe. But this advert has captured it perfectly. It shows the moment when the new mother finds out she’s pregnant, to that sore moment when you sit down after birth, to the …

The New Glamour Children
We have all seen the programs on the TV. Small little girls (and some boys) plastered in a tonne of Make-up, wearing horrific clothes, strutting down a cat-walk, dancing to a song some with explicit lyrics. It is wrong. It is very, very wrong. Now this is just my opinion. It may differ to yours. What sort …
Yay For Stretchmarks!
I have been meaning to write about this topic for a little while now. Stretchmarks. I was about 6 months pregnant when i noticed my first stretchmark. I mean real pregnancy stretchmark.

The Re-usable Nappy Queen
I’ll be honest, I love the idea of re-usable nappies. Great for the planet, and great for your purse too! Thats my idea of a perfect nappy. I read somewhere that 8 million disposablenappies are sent to the landfill every day! Jay’s mum brought us a trial pack of re-usable nappies from Mothercare called SmartNappy …
