I recently went for what is now known amongst my family members as Mum's Monthly MOT. This activity involves getting my nails done, having my eyebrows tended to and treating myself to a quick trim. It may seem extravagant, but as I vowed not to spend a single dime on clothes until I slimmed back down to my pre-baby weight (It's been sixteen years, so I'm thinking any day now) I feel...

I've long since subscribed to the school of thought that we're all in this together. Us mums, I mean. Those days when everything is running like clockwork and you can see yourself on the cover of Good Housekeeping can quickly give way to a day when your mug shot will fill the cover of the National Enquirer and you'll be forced to explain why you, your children and the family dog went...

Or should I say 'Boobie nights?' Those nights that never seem to end and you wake up in the morning feeling hungover only to realise you've had none of the fun of a night out, you are in fact just so sleep deprived you literally feel hungover! These are what I like to think of as 'Boobie nights' or boogie nights parent style. Yes, as parents we still get to pull all nighters, just not as we knew...

Becoming a mum is one of those amazing, life-changing moments that you never in a million years would want to give back. But motherhood requires a lot of hard work, much of which has to be done with little or no sleep. And it’s the lack of sleep that I am totally blaming for half of what I've lost, although it's not to blame for EVERYTHING! 1. My ability to reply to a text message...

I went clothes shopping at the weekend because despite it being the last weekend before pay day, I inexplicably had a few notes left in my account. (No doubt I've forgotten to pay the electricity bill and we'll soon be fumbling around the house in the dark like four mole people.) Clothes shopping used be a leisurely pursuit, but since having children I approach most highstreet stores with...

When you've been married as long as I have, it would be unrealistic to expect your sex life to boast the same passion it did during the honeymoon period. Sometimes, and God knows it kills me to say this, but it can feel like mine and my husband's tumble beneath the sheets is more to do with scratching an itch and less to do with actually enjoying one another. While I know this aspect of...

So it's happened. The dreaded return to work has come and gone. After the first hour of the first day it was like the previous nine months off never even happened, apart from the gentle reminders when people asked: "Are you back already? That flew!". And it did. I was back into the swing of work life within an hour, albeit tired and red-eyed from being up washing duvets and dealing with a...

Recently, a fellow mum took time out of her day to document the various reasons her daughter saw fit to throw a tantrum. From her brother looking at her to her mother offering the wrong breakfast, this particular journey through a little girl’s typical day offered an unrivalled insight into motherhood and family life. Like millions of other mothers, I immediately related, but perhaps...

A close female relative of mine who shall remain nameless (upon pain of death apparently) recently reached a very exciting milestone in her life and it's fair to say she's slightly overwhelmed. Having wished valiantly to join her friends in an exclusive club they named Period Pals, this particular relative has now gained entry, and doesn't quite know what to make of it. Instead of the...

As a mum of four, there are many, many things I don't have much time for: cleaning skirting boards, matching socks and making soup from scratch to name but three. However, if there's one thing that really grinds my gears, it's when my children tell tales on each other. Yes, if one of you requires medical attention, then by all means point a finger at the perp and allow them to take...
