Be part of the project. Tuesday, 20 August 2013. Becky, Leila and Asher. Leila, 3 and Asher, 9 months. Variety; more like, 'what if I am capital B Bad, like shouldn't have children at all Bad'. These fears haunted me through the last weeks of pregnancy, as I waddled to my due date and beyond, virtually housebound by the big freeze that took hold that winter. And the feed takes 90 minutes! Taking your children home for the first time:. Enjoy every minute. What, every minute? Toddlers are their own special...

The Mothers: Jennie, Eleanor and Sam
http://www.the-mothers.co.uk/2015/03/jennie-eleanor-and-sam.html
Be part of the project. Sunday, 15 March 2015. Jennie, Eleanor and Sam. Eleanor, 11, and Sam, 8. I always wanted to be a mum, one day, but was always apprehensive about the job description and how much it would change my life. I'd wanted to become pregnant at 35, but when that time came I was having such a great time, and I was really unsure whether I should re-arrange everything. It's great to get some respite from my own little world, and to have felt it widening out in ways I could never have predicte...

The Mothers: Rowena and Maddie
http://www.the-mothers.co.uk/2013/06/rowena-and-maddie_12.html
Be part of the project. Wednesday, 12 June 2013. Maddie, 4 months. I’m not sure what I expected from motherhood. Tiredness, yes, and a heightened sense of responsibility; the knowledge that my life would never be the same again. Other than that, rather than expectations, I had hopes and fears. I’ve always enjoyed a wonderful family life, and I hoped for more of the same with my own kids. I have close relationships with both of my parents, and I knew that I had great role models to emulate. The cliché is ...

The Mothers: Gemma and Herbert
http://www.the-mothers.co.uk/2012/02/gemma-and-herbert.html
Be part of the project. Thursday, 2 February 2012. Taking your child home for the first time:. Herb’s dad and I were really paranoid about having a ‘clingy’ baby – so launched into our very first night at home with ‘controlled crying’. At 4 o clock in the morning, after Herb had been crying for maybe less than 5 mins, Joe threw down his arms in exasperation exclaiming he ‘had never known anything like it in his life! The hardest part of being a mother:. And this is the hardest part of being a mother:.

The Mothers: Lucie and Charlie
http://www.the-mothers.co.uk/2013/05/lucie-and-charlie.html
Be part of the project. Wednesday, 15 May 2013. Charlie, 14 mths. And I was terrified by the ‘foreverness’ of having a child. There is no changing your mind, no going back, no half measures – once they are here, they are going to be around for the rest of your life and that’s a frightening prospect. Of course, once they arrive, the thought that they might not be around for the rest of your life is even more terrifying. The Reality of Motherhood:. 8217;, and marched out again. Talk about bad bedside m...

There are no major changes in our family. I think perhaps things are at the point where parenting is slowly but surely getting a little easier though. Things are good. Motherhood since last being on the blog:. Has motherhood changed you? I realised that actually I had pretty strong willpower, and I could use that to my...

Be part of the project. Wednesday, 16 October 2013. Helen, Primrose, Willow and Luca. Primrose (12), Willow(6), Luca (4) and Honey (8 weeks). I remember thinking my life wasn't going to change too much and I would have tea out and a few drinks with a sleeping baby all tucked up in a buggy next to me. How wrong was I? Our third child Luca (or scamp as he is known) is such a life wire. A boisterous little fella who just wants to fight and jump around. My heart melts when he calls me his loveheart o...I fee...
