So here it is, ta da <big drum roll in background>! I’ve been hinting at an exciting announcement coming today and here it is. It’s funny, this is the end result of 6 months of planning and hard-work, I really hope that you will enjoy it and encourage your friends to join in .. I […]
I normally write a letter about my year and send it out with Christmas cards, but this year I’m too late, so instead I thought I’d write a blog post. Hopefully some of my friends will get to see it. I like writing this sort of thing, its probably very selfish, but it gives me […]

These hints and tips are just things that worked for me, so I thought I would share them just incase they work for someone else, please share them with anyone you know who is pregnant. Now obviously it is always wise to check with your health professional about any of the supplements and vitamins that […]
