Becoming Nanna

Posted on March 25, 2018 by Tinker and Totsy • Leave a comment

Last year, not long after Mother’s Day, my eldest daughter told me she had a late Mother’s Day gift for me and showed me a positive pregnancy test – it took a moment to realise that my baby was having a baby! I was momentarily stunned, I hadn’t been expecting it but I was thrilled … Continue reading →

I have some very exciting news to share. No, I am not pregnant but somebody is…… My baby is having a baby!! My eldest daughter Jess is due to have her baby boy on 1st December, just three weeks from now. We are all so very excited to meet him! When she first told me … Continue reading →

Luna’s birth story

Posted on August 1, 2017 by Tinker and Totsy • Leave a comment

I always knew that the chances of being induced were very high due to the risks related to my age (I'm pretty ancient for the childbirth world – 42) my consultant wasn't happy to let me become overdue so the plan was always to be induced on or just before my due date. I didn't … Continue reading →

I'm now in my very last few days of pregnancy. I am booked in to be induced on Monday so very soon I should have a little baby! Yesterday I saw my consultant for the final time and had a sweep, which was uncomfortable but not too bad. Unfortunately, although I did go to bed … Continue reading →

I have to say making it to 38 weeks pregnant makes it feel like the end is in sight and with my induction now booked in for 2 days before my due date I am definitely on the countdown – 11 days to go! It still feels strange thinking we will have an actual baby … Continue reading →

It's hard to believe I'm nearly at the end of my pregnancy journey, less than 3 weeks to go and Twinkle will be here. To be honest I'm so ready to meet her now! This week has been quite stressful, I had a scan last Friday which showed that Twinkle is growing nicely (approximate weight … Continue reading →

Now there are only 4 weeks left until we meet baby Twinkle it finally feels like I am reaching the homestretch. And if I'm honest, I'm a bit over being pregnant now and definitely on the countdown!  Apparently baby is now around the size of a chihuahua or a cabbage patch doll! I have a … Continue reading →

Time is going so fast now, I can't believe it's only 5 weeks until we meet our little baby Twinkle!  She should now be somewhere around 5 or 6lbs (2.25 – 2.7kg) and could measure up to about 48cm. Which apparently is about the size of a bunch of carrots or a child's backpack! She … Continue reading →

Only six weeks left until we meet baby Twinkle, which doesn't seem long at all. I feel like there is still quite a lot to organise before she arrives but it still feels like we've got enough time so no need to panic just yet, just as long as she doesn't decide to make an … Continue reading →

Only 7 weeks to go until we meet baby Twinkle, which somehow seems like no time at all and yet still seems like forever at the same time!  This week has been a much better week in terms of how I'm feeling, my back has felt really good most of the time and my itching … Continue reading →
