✨For Reals Though✨

I don’t know about anyone else but I’m now 36 weeks pregnant and baby brain has well and truly kicked in for me. Therefore, a blanket apology to everyone who’s had to wait a bit longer for responses from me these days!

When does baby brain stop being a thing? 😅

Summer is calling, and our May goodie bags are sponsored by .

Meet Eleanor. Light and bright, our bubbly rosé is one of strawberries and dreams.

Made from the finest handpicked Pinot Noir & Pinot Meunier grapes from our vineyard in Kent.
Almost impossible to sip, so please try to savour.

Come along to one of our May Brunch Clubs and find this lovely treat as part of your goodie bag! 💕

✨Step by Step, Day by Day.✨

I don’t know about you but I have a habit of getting carried away of what’s to come way down the line so much so that I forget to focus on what’s right in front of me now.

I’ve got 5 weeks left in my pregnancy and I’m already getting carried away about the baby being here but really maybe I should be enjoying these last few weeks of pregnancy where I can feel the baby moving all the time and I still get to wonder about who they look like and what they’ll be like. I don’t want to let this moment pass me by because it’s so very special and I know I’ll miss it when it’s over.

Let’s all take a moment to appreciate where we are right now in this moment, whatever stage of motherhood you’re finding yourself.

Deep breath.

You’ve got this. 💕

✨We’re all just winging it!✨

Being pregnant, I’ve been getting a lot of advice from all sides and this is definitely among the top of the list!

It’s easy to feel guilty or to blame yourself for everything you don’t do but there’s so much that you do do and that’s where your real focus should lie!
We’re all doing things our own way, what’s right for you and your family 💕 Keep winging it and keep talking to other mums who are doing the exact same, because ultimately that’s how we all get by.

Lots of Love,

Alex 🤰🏼

I love it!

✨The importance of a village✨

I haven’t lived near my family or friends really for years and it never bothered me until I got pregnant!
Now I’m noticing the lack of a village more than ever.
If you feel the same, come along to one of our Brunch or Coffee Clubs and meet other mums in a similar boat. This motherhood trip is so much harder on our own 💕

This month, we are teaming up with Nanobebe to give each of our mum clubbers a 2 pack of flexy soothers. The perfect dummy for the most soothing, mum-like experience. Its flexible, ergonomic design perfectly contours baby’s face to stay in place, whilst offering trendy colours to compliment any outfit!

Delighted to tell you, the wonderful will be joining us this Friday for Brunch Club AND for our Coffee Club on the 28th to capture some magic shots of you, your babies and your bumps!

A little bit about Sophie:
“Sophie is a Maternity, Newborn and First Year Photographer with over 10 years experience. Creating timeless images for her clients, she focuses on you, your baby and the love between your family.
“Sophie made us feel so welcome and comfortable, she took her time with our daughter and really amazed us with the photos. We have been back for a cake smash, a maternity and newborn shoot and we could not recommend Sophie more! She is absolutely amazing at what she does and makes the whole process easy and relaxed and really listens to what you want. I also have to mention how patient she has been with both my daughter and newborn. We are so grateful to have these memories forever.”

I for one can’t wait to see her work her magic! ☺️

🐣First of all, HAPPY EASTER🐣

Secondly, I just want to say you’re doing great, no matter what you’ve put together for your little ones today!

Social media is creating more and more trends for parents to do for their kids for all the various holidays and Easter is no different!
Between egg hunts and baskets and cute outfit photo ops and what have you, it can all get a bit overwhelming!

A reminder that you don’t have to follow all the trends you see on the apps. Your child is perfectly happy with some of your time and some chocolate 💛

Hope you’re all having a wonderful Easter weekend and not letting social media get to you!

We’ve had loads more followers since my last intro post PLUS took some lovely photos at our recent Brunch Club so how could I not show off my latest bumpdate! ☺️💕

When you come to one of my events I’ll be sure to greet you and give you the lay of the land.
I’m also there to make introductions if you come alone and hold babies if you need your hands free! (Holding babies might be my favourite part of these events 😄)

If you’re ever anxious or have any questions, feel free to DM me! Plus you never have to be worried about coming alone because you know you can always chat to me! 💕

Can’t wait to see you at one of our events soon!

✨Meet our Trowbridge Brunch Club Guest Speaker✨

It’s unusual for us to have guest speakers along to our Brunch Clubs but I couldn’t resist having the fantastic along next week to share some sleep tips with all of you! 🙌

A message from Gemma:
“Hello my name is Gemma Farrar and I am the owner of Little Dreams Bath and Swindon. Little Dreams is an award winning baby and child sleep consultancy service. I teach parents and carers and expectant parents how to teach their little one evidence based independent sleep skills so that everyone can get a better night’s sleep. My sleep plans and advice are bespoke to your child and my methods are breastfeeding inclusive and do not resort to cry-it-out methods.

I will be joining Alex on April 5th to give you my sleep tips and answer any questions around sleep for your little one.”

🤰🏼It’s ok, it doesn’t make you a bad person or mama🤰🏼

In honour of tomorrow’s first Mums with Bumps Coffee Club I wanted to just leave this here.

I’m personally 29 weeks pregnant now and actually at this stage I love my pregnancy but that wasn’t always the case.
I have hyperemesis gravidarum, a severe form of morning sickness and I had a really rough time until I was about 20 weeks…I honestly wouldn’t wish it on anyone. So no, I haven’t always enjoyed the journey and I absolutely don’t blame anyone who just doesn’t enjoy this part of motherhood. It’s tough.

Depending on your lifestyle before it can really mean you lose a lot of yourself and your life so I totally get it.

Not enjoying it does not make you a bad person and it doesn’t mean you won’t love your baby when it gets here.

I support you however you feel about your pregnancy journey cause your feelings are valid 💕

✨Ever wondered about hypnobirthing?✨

I’m delighted to introduce who’ll be joining us for our Coffee Club this Sunday to talk about hypnobirthing!
As an expectant mum myself I’ve heard a lot of people mentioning it but I’m ashamed to say I don’t actually know much about how it works so I for one am really looking forward to Gemma sharing a bit more about it! 🤩

A bit about Gemma:

“Hey I’m Gemma, a dedicated Hypnobirthing teacher in Melksham and the surrounding areas.

The thought of childbirth can sometimes bring with it alot of fear, I definitely felt the fear back in 2017 when I was pregnant with my 1st baby!

I am now so passionate about supporting you to you feel more informed,calm,confident and empowered, HOWEVER you birth your baby.

Birth doesn’t have to like we see on the TV!!

Hypnobirthing is a full birth preparation antenatal course that equips you as parents- to- be with invaluable tools, empowering you to embrace childbirth with confidence, calm and control.

Hypnobirthing techniques can help you manage pain and stress during labour.

By promoting relaxation and reducing fear, the body will release fewer stress hormones, which can lead to a more comfortable labour and birth.

As well as this you can explore your options and learn how to make informed decisions that feel right for you and your baby. + more”

✨We all need ‘the village’✨

I got involved in The Mum Club because I haven’t lived in my area very long, I work a remote job and my family are all miles away so I don’t have much of a support network nearby which I honestly never really noticed until I got pregnant!

Pregnancy can be hard and I really needed a lot of support and so I realised it was maybe time to start building my village because I’d need one going forward and not just for my pregnancy journey.

I haven’t been running these clubs long but I’m already hearing similar stories from SO many mums who have attended the events and I just want you to remember - YOU ARE NOT ALONE! ❤️

You never have to be nervous coming to one of our events because everyone is there for the same reason really, to find their village. I hope bringing these events to your area I can play a tiny part in helping you find yours x
