When I became pregnant with Ella, I became a woman possessed. I demanded that photos were taken to document each and every step of the journey. For someone who is remarkably backward when it comes to technology, I insisted photos were backed up and the word ‘memory stick’ took on a whole new meaning. I don’t know, maybe I subconsciously knew Ella would be my first and last so I didn’t want...

Myself and my husband celebrated our sixteenth wedding anniversary earlier this month. And subsequently found ourselves wandering nervously through the halls of a five star hotel and spa which my husband booked on a whim before remembering that, as a couple, we simply can’t handle this amount of fancy. The pressure gets to us, if I’m honest. We both feel the need to meet the romantic...

Expectant mums are often made to feel that pregnancy will be one seamless, peaceful journey where at the end we pop (not literally!) a beautiful little baby out; however this couldn’t have been further from the truth for me. Thankfully, I didn’t have any complications during my nine months and I know it can be a lot worse for other mums-to-be, but, to be honest, it totally freaked me out. Like...

I recently became aware of an online campaign which called for a minimum age requirement to be implemented with regards ear piercing and I, for one, am all for it. I normally subscribe to the ‘Live and let live’ school of thought, especially when it comes to parenting, but this is one of the few issues that really gets my back up. When I see an infant with studs pierced into her tiny lobes or...

I caught Joshua bullying a child in our estate on Saturday and suffice to say, I’m devastated. I’m horrified that my son dared treat another child in such a heartless manner and I’m heartbroken for the little boy who suffered at the hands of my own child that afternoon. What I encountered wasn’t playful jeering or a verbal spat between two children equally matched in both size and...

Most of us remember the first pet we had when we were kids, and just how utterly devastating it was when they died. Even now, nearly 30 years later, I can vividly remember how I felt when my first my terrapin and then my rabbit died. Both happened years apart but they definitely introduced me to the unpredictability of life at an early age. Sadly, my daughter experienced that awful feeling last...

Last Saturday morning, I had a neighbour lean conspiratorially across the low wall which divides our front gardens and gesture I come closer for a chat. Inwardly I sighed, replaced my shopping bags in the boot and reluctantly mooched forward with a vague smile. Well, I think it was vague, but it was probably more strained than anything. There is nothing wrong with this woman per se, but she’s...

So, what exactly has Kim Kardashian done wrong here? Ever since the mum-of-one announced she was expecting her second child mere days ago, she’s been exposed to extensive media ridicule, much of which has little grounding in reality. Jokes and suggestions that childbirth is the only hard labour she’s ever experienced fell flat as I took a moment to consider the intense criticism levelled at...

I brought my children to the zoo on Saturday and instead of marvelling at the array of wild animals almost within touching distance, I found myself mesmorised by fellow families. While obviously I encounter other families on a daily basis, these interactions are generally fleeting and ones to which I don’t offer much thought. However, last weekend saw me wander for two hours in the company of...
