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.
