Ideas For Gifts When You Have Older Children
Collaborative Post¦ It can be so incredibly hard to buy gifts for boys and girls when they get older. There are plenty of options for girls I guess, but even so, you may be puzzled as to what to get. A boy can play with a girls toy and vice versa. But older children especially can be difficult. Firstly they don’t tend to give you any ideas or clues as to what they would like.

Whether it is Christmas, a birthday or even to celebrate a specific occasion, you may be wondering what to get your tween or teen. Sometimes you want to think practically as well as giving them an option of some of the things they want. But, if they haven’t given you any ideas, then don’t despair.

8 ways to soothe wisdom tooth pain in pregnancy
Collaborative Post¦ I recently wrote about the agony I went through with wisdom tooth pain a few weeks ago. Being in the late second trimester/early third trimester of pregnancy, there wasn’t a great deal I could do to help it! Of course, if I’d had a good dentist, it wouldn’t have troubled me for as long as it did. Fortunately, I found a good one and paid to have it removed. However, for some people it’s not an option to have a wisdom tooth out during pregnancy. Indeed, dentists often prefer to wait until after your baby is born. As such, that leaves you with a lot of pain in the meantime. Here are some things you can do to help relieve it.
Baby #2: What’s in my hospital bag?
This post contains some gifted items¦ The hospital bag is always a topic of conversation between expectant mums. There are some obvious things you should pack, but there might be other things that are less apparent. At the same time, you don’t want to overpack and have too much stuff (I made this mistake when I gave birth to my daughter!) People are also unsure when to pack their bags. Personally, I started packing my bag at around 30 weeks. Due to moving house, it took me a little longer, but I’ve just completed it at 36 weeks. Even though I am now hoping to have a home birth, it feels good to have everything in one place and will be ready to just pick up and take should my baby and I need to be transferred to hospital. Let’s take a look at what I’ve packed and the size of my bags too (another common topic of discussion!)

I’m going to try and update a little more regularly now that it’s coming close to eviction day! I’m trying to mentally prepare myself. Half of the time I’m worrying about whether I can do this again and how much it’s going to hurt. Somehow, having given birth before hasn’t really taken away much of my anxiety surrounding labour, even though it was a positive experience! The other half of me is just so excited and can’t wait.
