Prepare To Be Shocked, Reduced To Tears Yet Amazed & Inspired
Yes, you read it correctly, I see myself as deformed. I dont know if anyone else knows this feeling, but its dreadful. I can’t take my top off with the lights on. I can’t look in a mirror if i have no top off. I can’t let my partner of 5 years see or touch [...]
Cryptorchidism: Undescended Testicle My Experience Well today (18th July 2012) I have spent the majority of the day at hospital with my little man, for an operation to bring down one of his testes. It’s a routine op for a condition that affects 3-5% of new-born males. Most cases will resolve without treatment, although a [...]
After speaking with Millie Mae’s father I thought it would be a fantastic to share Millie Mae’s inspirational journey.To help raise awareness of Ataxia. In February 2010 Millie then aged 8, was diagnosed with Friedreich Ataxia (a rare neuro-muscular condition effecting every nerve and muscle including her heart). Ataxia has no rules with each [...]

This post is an anonymous guest post The past couple of years have been really hard. Starting with my daughter who landed up in hospital with what looked like a fit when in hospital she became very unresponsive and had to have 6 in total lumba punchers plus blood tests scans etc. then [...]
I was 8 years old when my mum realised I was an “E freak” as it was commonly know back in the late 80′s early 90′s as my brother had it and was on medicine to help combat it as he never slept, with me it just made me very giggly and silly where as [...]

This is the story of the decision me and my other half found ourselves having to make last august when we discovered our baby had Encephalocele.. and this post is basically to raise awareness as its something which isnt very well publicised I feel.
Like any preganant woman, I was all prepared. I had endless bags of clothes, some new, some second hand, hundreds of nappies in and a cupboard full of wipes. I had planned to breastfeed my son but had bottles and a microwave steraliser ready for when I wanted to express milk.
While out shopping with her young daughter mother came upon a self service store she had never seen before.
I have full permission to post this from Hayley loveland a local mummy from Stoke on Trent.Also a fellow supermum. SUPERMARKET bosses have apologised to the parents of a six-month-old baby given medicine 15 times the correct strength.
I am a great believer of a mothers instinct. I think all us mummies knw when something is wrong with our los. I was a new mummy to my beautiful daughter, had a slightly traumatic birth but gazing at my daughter whom was now 5 weeks old that was truly forgotten.
