Try as I do I'm more 'slummy' than 'yummy' mummy.
Pretty parenting & baby blogs filled with charming anecdotes, beautiful people, impossibly perfect photos & which are the stuff dreams are made of, are great but alas not me.
My blog is more realist (what Cromwell called 'warts & all'), it's not about my perfect life because although my life can be wonderful at times it can also be a grind!

When they can’t sleep…
It’s so hard isn’t it - despite sayings such as ‘sleeping like a baby’ it’s often far from how we imagine it to be, i.e. NOT all soft slumbering sweet dreams BUT more restless, over tired crying, wailing & worse.
Welcome to my world… My last three hours have been exhausting & all I’ve been trying to do is coax my little one to sleep. The craziest thing of all is that she wanted to sleep, she desperately wanted to but she just couldn’t find her way there. Poor darling.
I feel like I need a stiff drink to recover OR to bolster my reserves in case the current status quo (she’s sleeping but tentatively so, there is a lot of stirring & it’s only been 5 minutes). Of course the drink is not possible as I’m breastfeeding:-(
Ho hum - the joys of motherhood eh - wouldn’t change it for the world though xx

A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.
