Let’s be social



I'm Helen and this is my online diary documenting life's ups and downs of being an average mummy to a wonderful toddler with baby number 2 due July 2016.

I'm married to S and when I'm not blogging I work as a chemo nurse. I write about the big days, ordinary days and sh*tty days that come with parenting and pregnancy.
