A couple of weeks ago I was approached by a PR about a post on breastfeeding with confidence and I was completely upfront: I didn't/couldn't breastfeed and so didn't feel comfortable writing about something I hadn't experienced.

I've got one more week… Continue reading Bump Watch: Week 28 – planning to breastfeed

Earlier in my pregnancy I blogged about infinity scarves which keep you covered up while breastfeeding in public but I've just come across something even better - the Boobie Blanket from Teeny Tanners. I'm in love with the Movie Star blanket which is only £15.99 - perfect for every outfit for me and him!
