MY BIRTH STORY

Motherhood has been fair to me; from pregnancy to birthing my gem, it has been a beautiful journey and I simply can't remember what life was without her.

Although I didn't feel the sudden gush of butterflies in my Tommy just immediately and it was weird.
 I had watched tons of vlogs on birthing and read books and blogs and most of the mum's would swear they'd instant butterflies in their Tommy and fell hopelessly in love immediately they laid eyes on their newborn.

As I watched the nurse clean my baby all that'd come to mind was 'She was a stranger that'd just become mine'.

My lo weighed 3.5kg at birth. I was really determined to watch the weight because I was scared of the blade (lol).  She'd arrived as at 10:54pm with two good push😂😂😂.

Amazingly I completely forgot what contractions were or felt like.

To every soon to be mum's every birth story is unique and I wish y'all a beautiful birth experience.


love

Our Potty Training Story

Our Potty Training Story As at the time I'm writing this blog my baby 'Vida' is two years old and she's potty trained. Initially she got potty trained at about 21 to 22months old officially even though before then she'd indicate when she needed to use her potty but i choose to say 22months old because she decided independently on her own to stop wearing diapers, whenever I wore her diapers she'd remove it and that's when I came to the conclusion that we were potty trained! So initially I introduced potty to my daughter quite early, I think somewhere around 8-9 months; reasons because the bath my mum gifted us came with a potty and also she (my mum) engineered the idea of how nice it'd be if I started potty training early. So I do as told even though I wasn't doing it consistently, reason because it was difficult to tell when she needed to pee or poo, it just happens plus I wasn't always into it, so it was off and on for me. Fast forward to when s...

Why Women Cheat On Their Husbands: Uncovering the complex reasons behind infidelity

Cheating, or infidelity, in marriage is often seen as a betrayal of trust, yet it’s a more common occurrence than many might realize. While society often paints men as the primary offenders, research and real-life scenarios show that women also cheat, and for a variety of reasons. Understanding why women cheat on their husbands requires a look beyond simple explanations. Here, we’ll explore some of the more complex, underlying reasons why women may be unfaithful in marriage. 1. Emotional Neglect and Loneliness One of the most common reasons women cheat is due to emotional neglect. Many women desire not only love but also consistent emotional connection and validation. If a woman feels unheard, unappreciated, or emotionally isolated within her marriage, she may seek comfort elsewhere. When a man fails to show interest in his partner’s thoughts, dreams, or struggles, she may find herself drawn to someone who does. 2. Lack of Intimacy and Physical Connection Physical intimacy plays a vita...
