To Schedule or Not To Schedule, That Is The Question…

The schedule versus no schedule debate is almost as hot as breast feeding versus formula.  In fact, its been in the news lately, as LibDem MP Nick Clegg basically told schedule guru Gina Ford she was an idiot. Although not to her face. The one thing I always knew I wanted, when I had a [...]

I Forgot To Mention Yesterday…

anyone who is wondering about the MRI results? The appointment was cancelled.  I’m ringing today to find out about rescheduling, although I have a feeling they’ll say ‘we’ll send you a letter when we’re ready.’

I Knew I Hadn’t Written That Post Well

I didn’t say I thought I was a bad mummy, I know I am a fantastic mummy. I said I felt like a bad mummy.  Big difference, folks. And no, Mom, super moms are far a thing from the past.  You should hear the stories I hear about Mummy and Toddler groups…

I Felt Like Such A Bad Mother The Other Day

Anyone who reads this blog for anything more than 2 seconds knows that I have quite a few health problems.  Fibromyalgia.  Type II diabetes.  Anxiety Disorder.  Borderline Agoraphobia.  Early Degenerative Disease. And I do everything in my power to not let these  things affect the care of my son.  I had a horrible fibro flair [...]

I Am The Meanest Mummy *Ever*!!!

At least according to Adam. Why? Because I make him wear a shirt to bed under his Grobag for sleeping and one during the day under his overalls. Because I insist he try and nap. Because I insist he have a bath regularly. Because I let Daddy go to work rather than make him stay [...]

Letter to My Son – Adam – 7 Months Old

Its Been A Tough Week

Adam has not been sleeping well.  Staying up way past his bedtime and waking during the night.  I know it is jet lag and he will get passed it, but I am shattered. Because I am so tired I’ve been having fibro flares.  So we’ve spent a few days playing inside when we probably would [...]
