It’s FriYAY in this house because this little bean rolled for the first time 🎉

Happy little cherub 🤍

Why we love our Ergobaby Omni 360 🤍✨

The second dose of vaccines have been a bit much for my little love. An afternoon of sleepy snuggles, breastfeeds and cups of tea was definitely needed. Here’s hoping tomorrow is a brighter day 🤍

The response to my stories regarding “mum guilt” was big today. As frustrating as it is that we feel it at all (unnecessarily), it was also quite the relief that I’m not alone in feeling it over such little things, like leaving him to entertain himself for a whole few minutes whilst I wipe down the kitchen sides, or enjoy a hot cup of tea (I keep being told I won’t be able to do that soon enough…!).

I try my best to get out with Joey every day, whether that’s simply fresh air and a dog walk, a coffee date or a baby group. I sometimes think I put too much pressure on myself to get out and about very quickly in the newborn days (on day 2 I insisted we went into town and had lunch!), but even now, getting out has been pivotal to my sanity and feeling like I’m surviving. We don’t always manage it, and some days we spend in front of the TV having contact naps and cups of tea, but for the most part, I love getting out the house.

About Me

Hello, I'm Amber and welcome to my blog! I currently live in the East of England with my husband and best friend, Marco, and our gorgeous red fox Labrador, Bruce. I am a lifestyle and infertility blogger (and activist!), leading the Fight For IVF campaign, which resulted in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough CCG reinstating NHS funded IVF in 2021. My blog exists to help other women who are navigating their late-twenties and early-thirties, whether they're trying to steer their way through life. I started my blog as a means to cope with my infertility, and 7 years after stopping taking my contraceptive pill, an infertility diagnosis, thousands of pounds worth of tests, treatment and 3 cycles of IVF later, we are finally expecting our first child this Autumn! Find everything from pregnancy and preparing for baby, general lifestyle blogs, life after infertility, hacks to navigate the world of fertility, first-hand experiences, storytelling, and feel-good, self-appreciating content.
