How to Hide a Baby Bump

Today’s post is all about how you can hide a baby bump. Okay, you’re probably thinking, “why on earth would you want to hide a baby bump?!”. But the truth is that for many women they want to be able to keep their secret a little longer, or perhaps they don’t feel 100% comfortable with how their…

Pregnancy Diary: Week 33 – 34

Pregnancy Diary Week 33 I’m not going to lie, this week sucked! We had our appointment with the obstetrician in Dunedin, and thankfully she is lovely. Sadly, they’ve told me I need to be in Dunedin from week 34 onwards in case of any bleeding with my placenta previa/low lying placenta. While I haven’t had any so…

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…

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.

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…

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…

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…

Pregnancy Diary: The First Trimester

If you’re reading this post, then you probably saw our announcement a few days ago! We have a baby on the way! Today I wanted to share with you how I’ve found the first trimester and how everything has been going! I found out I was pregnant at 6 weeks. I had been having my strong suspicions…
