From Bump to Baby and a new Blog

Hi Everyone

Welcome to my new blog.

From the moment I found out I was pregnant I felt like I was doing something wonderful and the feeling of growing a baby is like no other. I really enjoyed being pregnant although I did run into some complications – at 33 weeks I developed a blood clot which changed my birth plan and meant I had to inject blood thinners twice a day, even for three months after giving birth.

A week after giving birth to my gorgeous baby boy Oliver I suffered a haemorrhage (this was due to changing from Fragmin injections to Warfarin combined with breastfeeding which contracted the uterus and caused a massive bleed) and had to go back to hospital for five days without baby which was just horrible. Due to this my recovery took a little longer than normal and I didn’t feel like blogging, I just wanted to cherish those early days with my baby and get used to life as a new mum.

Now Oliver is almost 6 months old and even though we are not in a proper set routine I’m trying to find windows of time in which to do my own thing and in this case that means blog. Since becoming a mother I really feel like I’ve learnt a lot and it felt right to start a new blog so here it is.

 I want to blog about a variety of subjects including those problems faced in life with a new baby, healthy snack recipes, fashion, beauty and mindset.

I really hope you enjoy reading my posts and feel free to comment and leave me a link to your blog too.
