Well hello there Cashew! Like with Lily, we decided to do a non-compulsory 4D scan (I was 31 weeks pregnant) as a keepsake for Cashew’s first ever photos. Since I’m not seeing an Obstetrician, this will be my last scan during pregnancy. We had some really good photos – she seems really photogenic because it [...]

Me at 39 weeks pregnant (L) and 40 weeks pregnant (R) back in 2010 I had quite a long and arduous labour with Lily (32 hours) and so I hope to decrease the time for my next labour. Lily was a posterior positioned baby which means her back was against my back and her chin [...]

Someone asked me the other day if I’ll be doing anything differently this time with the new baby. Since I’ve been through it before and think I’ve at least become a little more experienced, I feel a lot more confident in my parenting approach this time.
