Interiors blog post: Our new bedroom

I don't know if it's my nesting instincts kicking in already, a new found need for a safe space/sanctuary now that the baby nerves are starting to kick in or my desperate desire for constant projects and my impatient need to see a plan through from start to finish almost as soon as it pops into my head, but  I've gone into overdrive on doing up the house recently.

Switching our Honeymoon for a Babymoon

When we had to cancel our honeymoon to Crete earlier this year we waited until we had the all clear from my surgeon and switched it up with a baby-moon to Majorca instead.

I've never been much of a fan of flying I'm not going to lie and the idea of flying with a baby bump made me all kinds of anxious! But after having to cancel our Honeymoon in May to make way for my surgery, we were both very much in need of a holiday.

Feeling a dick for thinking I was fat in this picture 

Believe it or not this is one of the trickiest posts I've written so far but it's been on my mind for a while now and in the interest of this blog being all about openness and honesty I thought I'd give it a go.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing

I had a totally different blog post lined up for today but I changed my mind after reading Kris Hallenga's (founder of @coppafeelpeople) Instagram post this weekend about it being 10 years since her first visit to her GP and her cancer misdiagnosis. I was struck by some of the similarities between our GP experience and wanted to share my own struggle for a diagnosis. Only we know our own bodies and we have to trust our gut. I completely put my trust in my doctors for 8 months, ignoring my own body and my symptoms completely.
