Isn’t it funny how despite knowing something has happened without you impacting on it in anyway, you can’t help but blame yourself for it? Even if it’s not necessarily a bad thing? Well holy shitballs man, after you have a baby it gets soo much worse. Well it has for me at least. I haveContinue reading “I plead guilty your Honour”

Who Am I?
Well…. time seems to have passed quicker than I would have liked. My kid is 5 months old. How the heck did that even happen? Like, what even is 2020? I’m convinced we’re all in a simulation and whoever is controlling it is just sitting there laughing at us. Ahhh 2020, you’re almost over. ButContinue reading “Who Am I?”
I don’t know how you guys do it
This is for all the single mums, single dads, wives, husbands and partners of FIFO/DIDO workers and those in the defence force. I honestly don’t know how you do this all the time. And by this, I mean look at a small child or god forbid children. Tristan went away a couple of weeks agoContinue reading “I don’t know how you guys do it”
Dude, where’s my solidarity?
Rant ahead. I apologise in advance for this but I am just shocked and appalled by people’s lack of better judgement. Also, this post will lack the comical GIFs I usually post. Bloody husband is away for uni this week and took my computer with him. Damn him. So, yesterday I went to my nearestContinue reading “Dude, where’s my solidarity?”
No, I’m not enjoying maternity leave and yes I feel terrible for saying it – thanks for asking.
Almost everyone I talk to: “Oh you must love sitting at home with your baby and not working. I would give anything to be able to do that. Watching TV and sleeping when the baby sleeps.” One thing maternity leave has definitely taught me, is that I am not made to stay at home andContinue reading “No, I’m not enjoying maternity leave and yes I feel terrible for saying it – thanks for asking.”
Side effects of having a baby
While I was pregnant, a lot of my Momma friends (and people that haven’t had kids for that matter) warned me about things that would happen after I had a baby. BUT. There were also a LOT of things that I wasn’t actually prepared for despite being warned. Here’s a list of the things thatContinue reading “Side effects of having a baby”
Oooh baby baby
WARNING: This is a labour and birth story. If you are offended by words like stitches, blood, vomit and god forbid vagina, this is probably one to miss. You have been warned. Also, it’s really quite long. I had asked Mum a few times how I would know that I was in labour. How wouldContinue reading “Oooh baby baby”
People will always tell you HOW to be pregnant
One thing you hear constantly when you’re pregnant is, “when I was pregnant….” Usually this is followed by some sort of horror story about the time they went into labour in the middle of Woolworths and someone slipped on their broken waters. People need to remember that every pregnancy is different and just because youContinue reading “People will always tell you HOW to be pregnant”
Where it all began
“You need to do a test. You’re probably pregnant. You have a lot of the symptoms. Just do one.” My friend Erin knew me better than I knew myself. She knew before I knew. She was right. October 21st 2019, I went to the bathroom and came back to my dining room table with aContinue reading “Where it all began”
