1) Sorry to those who are reading this on a Monday instead of a Sunday - bit of a scheduling error going on, mainly due to the fact that I have a half-functioning brain. I'm pretty sure that quite a lot of my intelligence is seeping away with my breast milk -...
1) This week's "laugh out loud" moment was brought to me by Twitter and the hashtag #bakingfails, under which many people had been posting pictures of disastrous baking attempts. The Thomas the Tank Engine Cake above almost made me choke on my (misshapen) scone - it's...
1) I am cat-sitting my own cat, Mr Bear, who has been on holiday at my parents' house since March because non of the holiday lets we could find would allow a cat. I have missed him so much - even though life has been full-on with a new baby and lots of house-moving -...
Hello everyone: just stopping by quickly to make sure you're all OK and not missing me too much! Hopefully the majority of you won't have even noticed my absence, because I spent the majority of my pregnancy scheduling content so that I could have a nice, relaxed...
1) Could this be the last Sunday Tittle Tattle for a while? Brace yourselves: it's entirely possible! I'm 39 weeks pregnant tomorrow and so really, Baby AMR could emerge at any time. (I like the word "emerge" rather than "pop out" - it sounds gentler and far less...
1) I really, really miss this little chap. Look at his big round face! I just want to munch him. I'm so excited to think that in a couple of months he'll be home - though I'm not sure that my parents will give him up very easily! I'm wondering how he'll feel when he...
1) Sorry to those who saw a post appear about on Friday about my vlog and then suddenly found that it had disappeared; I have total brain fry at the moment and keep pressing "publish" on things that shouldn't be published yet! A sure sign that Baby AMR is getting...
1) Poor Dexter the Dog continues to be up and down with his little tummy problems; doesn't he look small in this photo? I don't know whether it's the angle or because I'm so gigantically huge at the moment. Also: why am I so orange? I'll tell you why; I was testing...
1) I'm on a bit of a go-slow for the next few weeks, mainly because the birth of Baby AMR is becoming rather imminent. I'll be 35 weeks tomorrow and - I have to admit it - I am starting to feel just a bit large and cumbersome and my brain isn't truly on form. I'm...
1) My run of "beauty at home" experiences continues: first was the home pregnancy massage from Home Spa London (read that post here) and then came a little visit from the fast blow-dry girls at Blow Ltd. Blow have a new "Fast Beauty To Go" app that allows you to...
1) During the mini heatwave last week, we decided to give Dexter the Dog a bath in the garden. We can't very well bath him in the actual bath where we are because it's a holiday let, and he's not allowed upstairs, and anyway it's kind of gross to do that when other...
**Apologies to those reading this by email; I wrote the post and then forgot to schedule it, so you'll be reading this on a Monday! If you're not subscribed to the email then you can do so here. 1) Top tip: never watch Channel 4's Supervet on the same day that you've...
