So it's payday (one of my last before I go onto the pittance that is statutory maternity pay), and I have been browsing for maternity wear for winter that will double as nursing wear for breastfeeding once the baby is born-no point in paying out twice, and will probably never wear maternity wear again afterwards otherwise.

After a hectic couple of weeks packing and a pretty stressful move day we are finally in our lovely new seventies retro home. All that's missing is a bowl for the keys :-D Trouble is, in the last two days I've not been able to find any of my beauty products or toiletries. The removal men, though very nice, failed to appreciate the...
It's a new mum curse: trying to make sure our hands are constantly germ free when touching our newborn, yet changing nappies and washing bottles every 2 seconds with no time to don the gloves! When my daughter was first born, my hands were almost raw and I could find nothing to soothe them, not even E45 (not a fave due to its...

I hate germs!! Anyone who knows me will testify that I have always had a strong aversion to dirt, mess and germs. Unfortunately having a baby/toddler means both my hands and bubba's are constantly getting grubby with sticky food, wee, poo etc. Now that my daughter is 20 months old and we have started potty training, this is even more relevant.
