It’s a very natural instinct for women to have children, to enjoy nursing a baby, and yet, it’s not as straightforward as it might seem.

There are lots and lots of questions to be asked because having a baby is a huge responsibility and we want to get it right, or at least do the very best we can.

I have found that, as the proud mother of Freddy who was born in June 2009, there is so much advice I have sought from my mother (who has done the baby thing 5 times), my sister (mother of 3), friends who have children of their own, and various books and magazines.

This is because there have been so many times, right from when my husband and I decided we’d like to try for a baby, that I’ve needed answers to questions or to put my mind to rest from worry or just to try to find out what to do for the best results.

My aim is to use my experiences and those of my friends and family who have had or are expecting babies and lots of research to bring you a useful, practical and down-to-earth website where you will be able to find everything you are looking for, answers to your questions and reassurance when you aren’t sure things are going right.

I want to go further than the professional advice found in books and other pregnancy websites by letting you know what ‘actually’ works, or what the case is ‘in practice’ rather than just in theory.

From the decision to try for a baby, or the moment you find out unexpectedly that you are pregnant to preparing for the arrival of your little one, to nurturing them as they grow, there is so much involved with these little people that, personally, I think we need all the help we can get, and if this website helps some people on their journey and makes it even a tiny bit more enjoyable or less stressful for them then my mission is accomplished.
