Hi! Introductions...


 A little about me...I'm currently pregnant with my third baby (26 weeks, due Dec 27th), I've got two girls, Izzy who's 4 and Ella who is 2 on Oct 7th. I'm a stay at home Mum, I used to be a drama teacher, which I loved and swore I'd never stop doing - then I had kids. I couldn't cope with leaving Izzy in childcare everyday - the childminder was fab, but it ripped me apart on a daily basis.

My husband was also a teacher, but suffered a nervous breakdown 18 months ago. He then got diagnosed with Fibromyalgia - if you don't know what that is, think M.E. only with accompanying severe pain and stiffness for added fun. He's desperately trying to get a job, but is really limited by his illness. He's actually got a second interview tomorrow, for a brilliant job that's based at home - I sooo hope he gets it.

So what's the point of this blog?

Like I said, I'm currently pregnant with baby number 3. I thought it might be interesting to write about the last few months leading up to the birth and then what comes after...

I'm trying for a vaginal birth after two caesarians (that's a story for another day), so my progress with that will be one thing I write about. I'm also breastfeeding Ella - I intend to continue with that after this baby is born, so I'll be tandem feeding. Oh yeah, and I still co-sleep with Ella, so that'll be an interesting set up once the newbie arrives!

Hope you're still there...stick with me!
