Be proud of your Mum Tum

As a new mum i found there is alot of pressure around loosing your "mum tum" and returning to pre baby size. 

Now i don't know about everyone else but i was far too busy with a newborn to be concerned about my weight. Sleep deprived and coping with a colicy baby i would eat whatever i could get my hands on to give me energy. 

During my pregnancy i put on 2 stone, immediately after birth i had lost a stone. Leaving me with 1 stone to shift, which to this day i still have.

My go to wardrobe for the past few months has been black skinny jeans and baggy tees. Last weekend i was going out for lunch and was feeling good. I decided to wear a midi dress, meaning no hiding the tummy.

I have decided I shouldn't be ashamed of my mum tum, i carried a child for 9 months in there and since have been raising my daughter and having fun. Any spare time i have is spent tidying the house or sleeping! 

The weight will shift eventually and i am ok with that. If people make remarks, then that is their issue not mine!

Has anybody else felt the pressure to shed that mum tum? 

Where has the time gone!

Hi guys, I am back!

As some of you may know I recently had a little baby girl in December. Blaire arrived 8 days late after 3 very long days of labour in the hospital! I won't go into the details but it has been enough to put me off child birth for a while!

But really, where does the time go?! like everyone always tells you, enjoy each day as they will be at school before you know it. This is so true Blaire is now 13 weeks old on Thursday!

Since having Blaire I really don't know what day it is or even what time it is, babies are hard work! And if anyone ever tells you different they are lying!

But we are now in a good routine and I have the evenings back to myself (she has even slept through the night twice already!) So as I have some free time again I am resurrecting my blog, I will write about baby related things and also fashion posts (when I am not in my pj's all day)

Speak soon

I'm Comin Home

Hi guys!

Sorry I have been MIA the past wee while but I have recently moved house and after many an argument and shocking customer service from Virgin Media I finally have got Sky installed this week meaning I have internet again!!  So I thought I would post a quick outfit from a night out I was on a few weekends ago.

This topshop dress is fast becoming a firm favourite in my wardrobe, black and has a tutu need I say more?! I teamed it with my studded waist belt I got from EBay many moons ago after seeing Carrie Bradshaw wearing it in the Sex and the City film.

Can we take a moment to appreciate my panda bag! This is actually an iPad case I picked up in Primark for 4 quid! It is had been lying in my cupboard for months and I finally decided to take it out, you would be surprised at how much stuff I got in it!

I will hopefully post more regularly now I have the internet again!
