6 weeks and counting! I am at that stage of pregnancy now where I am really struggling. I am feeling very uncomfortable and large. Obviously having this UTI at the moment really isn't helping with how I am feeling. I am struggling to sleep and eat at... [Continue reading]

Yesterday I was up bright and early and in the car driving to the hospital by 8:15. My appointment wasn't until 9am, but it can be a nightmare to get to and with the Olympics and M25 traffic, it's always best to leave early. I arrived at 8:40am and decided... [Continue reading]
