Interview with the Lovely Anna Tizard who is a co-founder of TIBA & MARL – who make THE COOLEST Baby Change Bags around! What was your favourite part of being pregnant? I loved the excitement of knowing I was going to have my very own baby!! I loved my tummy growing, and weirdly I also loved the (superficial i know!) challenge of trying to still wear nice clothes, and try to style out the bump (I worked in a fashion office – I wouldn’t just wear leggings!!) What was the worst bit about being pregnant? I’m pretty sure 99% of […]

Interview with Olivia Siegl from the Baby Bible
What was your favourite part of being pregnant? I loved being pregnant the first time around. My favourite part was feeling the little one kick and the overwhelming sense of calm I felt throughout. Fast forward 16 months, I’m 23 weeks pregnant with our second and things couldn’t be more different. I’m knackered, huge and have given up waiting for the damn pregnancy bloom to reach me! Therefore, I’ve resigned myself to the fact that this is just the way it is this time, invested in a good fake tan (a bit of colour always makes you feel better and hides a […]

An Interview with Clemmie Hooper from the Gas and Air Blog
An Interview with Clemmie Hooper from the Gas and Air Blog What was your favourite part of being pregnant? Watching my body change shape was incredible. Despite seeing and feeling hundreds of women’s bumps, my own bump was amazing especially when the baby moved. Oh and my hair and skin has never looked so great. My hair was thicker and so shiny and skin spot free for the first time in my life. What was the worst bit about being pregnant? I suffered with terrible back ache, from about 28 weeks. It was like a hot burning on the […]
