While browsing the Breastfeeding forum at MDC today, the following google ad caught my eye:
Tee hee… not quite sure if that’s exactly the type of pump nursing mums are looking for, but thanks for the recommendation anyway!

Today I’ve been inspired by Danielle at New Mommy Rant to continue my virtual housekeeping. I checked for and repaired deadlinks 2 weeks ago so they should be grand, I still have to divide my blogroll into easier-to-manage sections, I have a few new blogs to add to it. I had a look at other [...]

I’ve been following a thread on MDC where people have been adding links to their favourite breastfeeding images, be they photos, paintings, sketches, statues, advertisements, public awareness campaigns or jewellery.
But as with all threads on such busy forums, this one will eventually start to slip into the archives, so I thought I would take [...]

My latest post for API Speaks, this one’s for all the wonderful dads!
I’ve been thinking recently about how important Attachment Parenting is to fathers.
Many men seem to feel helpless and left out when it comes to the whole process of pregnancy, birth and those early weeks with a new baby. Mother and baby are like [...]

Steph over at Adventures in Babywearing is hosting a little mini-carnival to let everyone share their slings! Littlepixie is getting heavy and prefers to run around now so I don’t use mine as much as I used to but here is a peek at them… each is well-loved and has served us well!

The human milk bank in Fermanagh urgently needs more donors, especially from the Republic of Ireland. You may recall that my first post was about our milk bank.
Well, yesterday Tanya Cassidy left a comment on that post sharing her experience of receiving donor milk for her second premature son after sadly losing her first son [...]

My latest post for API Speaks, it’s a follow on from this post from last year!
I’m the type of person that likes to be active about the things I am passionate about. In parenting spheres my passions include “extended” breastfeeding and carrying my child, usually in a sling. I remember when littlepixie was tiny, I [...]

My latest post on The Veggie Blog, reposted here for your enjoyment!
Me again, I’ll be posting here every so often with some random thoughts vaguely connected to being a vegan parent and raising vegan children. My daughter is 18 months old, so I don’t have huge swathes of experience yet, but I will offer up [...]

I had a look at the book we bought when littlepixie was born, you know the type, it goes through their development by age and says “your baby can now see 1 metre in front of them” that type of thing. Haven’t looked at in ages, mostly because it was hidden in the mysterious [...]

My 18 month old daughter loves to dance. At mother and toddler group every week she watches and tries to mimic the hand movements that the older children & mums do as they sing all of the nursery rhymes. She claps loudly at the end of each song and jumps up and down excitedly waiting [...]
