Wearing my big white dress, I was ready and it was time to head to the Castle of Malcesine. Our wedding ceremony was due to commence at 11am. My father and I were sitting outside in the garden of Hotel Maximilian, waiting for our ride. It was a sunny morning and the views over Lake Read More

The Wedding Special 1/3 – Bridal preparations
Ever since Maia was born seven months ago getting “dolled up” has meant a quick spray of deodorant and dry shampoo, followed by concealer and mascara. More often than not milk stains on a t-shirt, messy bun and trainers have completed my mum-style (and I said I wouldn’t become that mum, lol). I know, not Read More
Happily ever after
We are married! 💕 Just a quick update to let you know that everything went well and we had the most wonderful wedding day in Lake Garda last Friday and a lovely minimoon in the Dolomites afterwards. I am such a lucky girl – feeling full of gratitude and love! For the past week I’ve Read More
Two days until our wedding – eek!!
And suddenly we have only two days to go before our wedding day! 😃 I’m so excited but also getting nervous now. What’s the weather going to be like (rainy/too hot/just perfect)? How will our baby behave? Will people have a good time? Will I wake up on the wedding day with a giant spot Read More
7-months old baby Maia
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
Pressing the reset button on life
For the past three weeks I’ve been packing and unpacking my stuff again, for the sixth time in nearly five years, ever since my big move to London. Combined with wedding planning (only two weeks to go – eek!) it’s made me reflect on certain decisions I’ve made in life, all those times I’ve packed Read More
BBG 1 results – 12-week challenge done boom!
I downloaded the Kayla Itsines Sweat app four months after Maia was born and started the 12-week BBG 1 programme. I was already back at my pre-pregnancy weight but my fitness level (cardiovascular or strength) wasn’t what it once was nor did my body look the same as it did before I fell pregnant. I Read More
6-month update on my post partum fitness journey
It’s been six months since Maia was born – time to check in with my post partum fitness journey! When I started this blog and called it “Fit City Mum” I worried I was jinxing it. I wasn’t even pregnant and had no idea if I would be and whether my aspirations to stay fit 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
6-months old baby Maia!
My happy baby girl is half way through her first year! I say happy because she has indeed been a smiley little thing recently. There was a rather fussy period before this (4-months old baby) and so I’ve really enjoyed the more content baby. I felt like Maia’s fourth and fifth months were a bit Read More
