Take a break and be kind to yourself.

- November 04, 2022

It's a beautiful day, hubby and I are meeting in his lunch break so we can shop for little miss's birthday present, feeling really proud about how we have saved for her present and excited for the upcoming events. Then I think about those events, there is this sick feeling in my stomach again, this feeling has been following me around all week. Every morning I've been feeling nauseous, I've been exhausted, overwhelmed, emotional, heightened anxiety. I even googled 'Can I get pregnant after a vasectomy', thinking that maybe this is what is going on. (As I discovered, 4 years on from that momentous event in hubby's life, it is highly unlikely for me to be pregnant).

Perinatal Mental Distress Discrimination and Prejudice Survey

- October 04, 2022

Have you ever experienced prejudice and discrimination while walking through perinatal mental distress? Have you seen it happen to others? Or have you experienced discrimination towards yourself in your own thinking which just kept pulling you down when it was already so hard to stand up? Then we would love to hear from you. We are currently gathering information around this issue from our local community. We would like to understand the common thoughts, behaviours and impacts upon individuals along with ideas about what we can do to help stop and change the way we as a community think, interact and support parents experiencing mental distress. Click this link below which will take you to our survey you can fill out, you can keep it completely anonymous and any information shared will be respected and kept private. Perinatal Mental Distress Survey Thank you for you support and help.

I had seen this come up on my Spotify account when it was released last week and wondered if I would give time to listen to this new venture of hers. Now, I'm on the fence about having an opinion of Meghan and Harry, I am a fan of the British Monarchy, not just the current family but the Royals of the past as I am a mad history lover, so I do tend to follow, to the best of my abilities, what the Royal family gets up to and who is connected to who. However, I find it hard to follow happenings through modern day media and news stories as it does come across one sided. Yes, they have their sources, but how do we as the readers really know that the source is actually telling the truth?
