My Postpartum Fitness Plan

If you had told me two years ago that I’d write the next sentence, I would have laughed. But right now I really really miss working out. As you might know if you’ve been following my blog for a while, at the start of 2017 I started at the gym and was absolutely loving how fit and…

Pregnancy Diary: Week 31 – 32

I’ve decided to start making these updates every fortnight rather than monthly, as we are getting so close now to meeting the little guy! Of course babies turn up when ever they feel like it, but from 37-42 weeks is the norm – that’s only 4 weeks away now! Ever since about halfway though my pregnancy, I’ve had…

Pregnancy Diary: Weeks 27 – 30

Week 27 I was feeling really good this week (well, during the day at least – more on that later!), and I was so happy to start to see a few of the big things get ticked off our list. Our double glazing went in, which is so ridiculously exciting as it means we said goodbye to…

6 Things I Didn’t Know About Being Pregnant….Until Now!

Over the last few months, I’ve been doing so much research and reading about pregnancy and babies. While I always knew the basics of all this stuff, it’s amazing just how much you don’t know until you have a good reason to learn! Here’s 6 things I didn’t know about being pregnant…. until now! Just how tired…

Pregnancy Diary: Week 22 – 26

At the end of every week, I sit down to update this post and I can’t believe how fast time is going! It feels like it wasn’t that long ago I was excited about the first trimester nearly being over, and here we are heading towards the start of the third! I can officially say I’m six…

You CAN be Stylish While Pregnant!

I’ve mentioned this before, but before being pregnant, I kind of assumed that all maternity wear was ugly and unflattering. I had expectations of living in leggings and baggy tshirts for the entire pregnancy, and as someone who loves her fashion, this killed me a little inside. It wasn’t until I started looking at maternity clothes that…

Baby Gender Reveal: It’s A……

Ever since we found out I was pregnant, I’ve been dying to know what flavour baby will be. I’m probably the most impatient person, and while I do like surprises, there was no way I could hold off until July to find out. So last month at our 20 week anatomy scan, we found out if baby…

Shopping for Maternity Jeans

When I found out I was pregnant, I knew straight away I would be investing in a pair of maternity jeans. I’m totally a jeans and t-shirt kind of gal, and since I’d be spending a good chunk of being pregnant in winter, I knew I’d need some sort of jeans or pants to keep me warm.…

Pregnancy Diary: Week 18 – 21

Week 18 The week of no sleep. I sort of thought now was the time when I was supposed to be sleeping heaps, as people are always like “better get it while you can”, but this week my sleep was terrible. I’d be lucky to get 3-4 hours a night, which was definitely not enough as I…

Pregnancy Diary: Week 14-17

I’m really enjoying writing these pregnancy diary posts, and it seems you are all liking them too! In order to not blast you all too much with baby news, I’ve decided to do a bit of a monthly update. This month was between being weeks 14 and 17. I can’t believe how fast time is flying! While…
