The other day I complained to Maia’s dad saying “Maia is getting so independent!”. He looked at me as if I’d completely lost it. In fairness it does sound a bit funny because our little girl isn’t exactly a low maintenance “I’ll just mind my own business”-kind of baby but what I meant is that Read More

Why mums disappear
Being the first couple of our London friends to have a baby isn’t ideal. While our friends have of course been super excited and happy for us, it’s been very difficult to keep in touch with friends and to attend the gatherings and social events ever since Maia was born. It’s nobody’s fault. Before actually Read More
Mum life part 5/5 – Friday
It’s Friday! The last day of the week being on my own with my baby girl. Weekends no longer mean lie-ins or dinners out but with Maia’s daddy at home during the day I can share the baby duty, I have adult company, and we usually do something nice together. But before the weekend, here Read More
Mum life part 4/5 – Thursday
5.15am – Maia wakes up for the first time but unfortunately it’s not the first for me. I stayed up too late watching telly yesterday and Maia’s dream feed lasted for an hour so I only got to bed after midnight. For some reason I had disturbing dreams and kept waking up. Once I even Read More

Three months old!
That’s it, the fourth trimester has officially ended! Maia is a big girl now, or at least a big baby, three months old and not a newborn anymore (sob sob!). I feel so proud of how well she has grown and how she’s developing into a little person, learning new things every week. I’ve had Read More
Weekend vibes
I can’t believe it’s Sunday night already! Weekends seem to fly by even though I’m not working and you might think it doesn’t make a difference to me which day of the week it is, like on holiday, but that’s not the case. Weekends are different not only because Maia’s dad is at home but Read More
One month old Baby Maia
I’ve tried to write this post for a week – it was Maia’s 1-month birthday on Tuesday – but the days seem to fly by with me being too busy to even brush my hair but seemingly getting nothing done. Welcome to the life with a newborn baby! 😊 Maia is doing very well and Read More
