'I know life well enough to know you can't count on things staying around or standing still, no matter how much you want them to'

Going to the garden centre and buying a new plant is one of my favourite things to do. Today’s purchase, a blueberry bush. 🫐

Dreams do come true, you are a sure sign of that my girl ☁️ 🫎

I could watch Maisie sleep all day ❤️🥰

Maisie will be down at 7:45 so counting down the minutes 😅

Tiredness is a real thing tonight 😅😅😅

Newborn snuffles are just the worst ☹️☹️☹️

Call the Midwife is an incredibly powerful piece of TV. Such a heartfelt script with devastating story lines, please never end!

Watching the American Nightmare is sending me over the edge. I can’t stop glancing at the door/window to check no-one is breaking in 🫠🫠

❤️❤️

Being a new mum would be a whole lot easier if my body let me have little naps during the day. Everyone told me to nap when she nappies, I try, yet sleep does not come 😅🫠

Doozy’s last feed was at half 5 so of course that means I’m awake for the long haul now. My body is conditioned to being awake at 6:30/7:00 😅

Still in awe of the midwives at the NNUH who helped deliver Maisie a week ago today. Midwives are the purest, kindest, most patient people who empower women through an immense amount of pain everyday. They work long hours, often with no breaks. Leak and Heather, thank you. @NNUH

I could (and do) sit and watch her for every minute of the day.

Another day where a packet of S&V starts the day! Perhaps it wasn’t a pregnancy thing after all 😅😅😅

Our sweet little Maisie, born 7th January 2024. My dream come true ❤️

The hunger when I wake up has reached another level. Just scoffed a chicken wrap and now munching on some S&V crisps at 7:00 #elite

Ryan has created a labour playlist with songs relevant to giving birth and it’s the sweetest thing ever

Waking up hungry every night is becoming a new thing 🫠

The hunger/constant eating stage has descended now that I’m 37 weeks pregnant. (I mean, this entire pregnancy has revolved around food in all fairness 😂😅)

Anxiety will be the death of me 😂😅
