I am 7 months into this new journey of being a mom to two little human beings and what a ride it has been!!

I don’t recognize myself any more, from the physical parts to the logical and emotional parts. I can keep these beauties alive and meet their needs, but sometimes I can’t even remember names (due to brain fog and tiredness), I don’t have the energy or motivation to leave the house (due to fluctuations in hormones) and I am quite happy to live quietly in social isolation with my little family. It’s all things I am trying to make sense of, as well as considering what I want the pit stops of the journey to look and feel like.

Whilst I try and figure out what all this means, I am enjoying moments of being in the moment. It’s not rocket science for me but it always surprises me when it feels better,
- Good music - currently in my Gospel era
- Fresh air and going for walks, even if it’s just walking around the garden.
- Speaking with others who pour into my cup. It’s not often I have the energy, but when it happens it’s lovely.
- Loooooooong, hot showers.
- Cuddles on the sofa with the girlies, even if the means big sister on the iPad or doing me a “show” and little sister watching her in awe.

But the biggest thing I forgot that I needed and have not had for a while was being near the sea. Brighton and Hove have a special place in my heart and feels like home when I am there. We were there just for one night and I stopped, I felt, I listened, I laughed, I reset. I even brought a new book that I’m determined to start. Thank you

The 4th trimester is tough, weird, complex with emotions and beautiful all in one. No words of wisdom here, but just thought I would share in case it’s a gentle reminder for anyone. X

If only crossing your fingers was enough. These pictures represent my final journey on the IVF train. Picture 1 was November 2023, nearly 9 years on from my last successful IVF cycle. A day full of dread, sadness and excitement after seeing my consultant and starting treatment.

The second picture is December 2023 with my baby sister supporting me with the frozen egg transfer. Again a day full of dread, sadness, excitement but also guilt, what if it worked and my first born would have to share me with another. That’s a whole story in it self.

Both pictures do not represent the grief and feeling of loss that comes with IVF. But guess what, I have written my first article that may bring at least a basic level of understanding.

Have a look and please be kind, I’m a talker not a writer so this is all new to me lol.

Taken from a family members post. Not sure how true this is but I would rather do this than nothing -

Here's how to do If you are thinking of getting off FB because of the volume of sales ads and trash stuff. So hold your finger anywhere in this post and click ′copy’. Go to your page where it says ‘What's on your mind?’ Tap your finger anywhere in the blank field. Click paste. This upgrades the system.

Hold your finger anywhere in this message and “copy” will appear. Click “copy”. Then go to your page, create a new post and place your finger anywhere in the empty field. “Paste” will appear and click Paste.
This will bypass the system….

Happy because I made it!!!. I survived 2024 and it was not easy! I started 2024 feeling dizzy, sick, light headed, angry, sad and with brain fog ( just some of the symptoms) due to the side effects of my IVF meds. It wasn’t suppose to work, I was too old (I am late 40’s), too stressed and had new health issues I didn’t have with my last cycle 8 years prior.

But it worked and I survived it. Then I had a threatened miscarriage, but I survived it. But even with all the prep with my GP, I experienced HG. I was leaning into the HG and then I got diagnosed with gestational diabetes.

When I say I have been tested and pushed I can’t truly put into words what it means. I have heard of stories where people have not survived HG and I know exactly why. I thought it was hard the first time, but boy was I wrong. Even with all the high dose meds and rest it was tough.

Over the last 12 months I have changed as a person. I am a solo mom who had to be everything for my first born. I am a sister, a daughter, a friend and a professional. However, I am no longer the person I truly use to be. I am harder but softer. I tolerate foolishness less, I appreciate family and time more, and I am able to clearly distinguish my needs. I am proud of who I am and that I was fortunate to be able to survive.

I have had to advocate for my needs countless times with medical professionals and thankfully I was listened to. I received great treatment for different things, but it still didn’t make things easy.

There is so much to my story and now so much to who I am now. But that’s for another day.

I am here and I am blessed with now two gorgeous humans but it still doesn’t mean it was easy. So for all of you who are or who have had IVF, threatened miscarriages, HG, GD and a newborn who has needed emergency surgery I get it!! But I can also say this experience was also one of healing. Healing from previous birth trauma and other aspects of pregnancy and postnatal difficulties.

Life is a weird and wonderful thing and I am grateful to experience it. am returning to work slowly but here if you need support. Xx

Hi guys. I know it’s been a while. I sadly don’t have all the joy and positive vibes many people have on here this time of year, because I absolutely know how difficult and at times devastating this time of year can be if you have or are experiencing reproductive trauma.

This time can represent sadness, anger, grief and loneliness on a level you never knew existed and can feel like it comes from no where. This can happen if you have just had a failed pregnancy test, failed round of IVF, difficult endo surgery, or even if you have had a positive pregnancy test after TWW, are pregnant after loss and already have a child earth side.

There are no words of advice, other than doing what is right for you. Stay still, keep quiet, dip in to some of the madness, tell people what you don’t need if you don’t know what you need. But most of all listen to your body and it will give you some insight to what you need.

Don’t feel guilty for not being happy, or not being able to join in the festive cheer. For those who don’t celebrate Christmas, the quietness or others can feel harder.

Please don’t sit in silence, reach out to others. The , both have suppprt lines for help.

I am back in the office on the 28th and also have some availability for sessions, even if all you need is a one off session. Please contact me via my website and not on here.

Sadly, life keeps moving, even if we feel like we don’t want it to. So know that this will pass and you will keep going, even though I know you most likely will not want to.

However, if things feel too tough, please don’t hesitate to contact your Gp, or out of hours services.

Thinking of you all ###
