Second TFMR stillbirth- What I did differently
I can’t really believe I’m writing this, but in June 2025 we had to make the agonising ‘decision’ to end our much wanted, much loved fifth pregnancy. Our daughter arrived at 18 weeks and 5 days in the same bereavement…
Removing toxins to support fertility and wellness
Our journey of baby loss, recurrent miscarriage and TFMR, has altered things in my life far more than I ever could of imagined. When we first decided to try for a sibling in 2021 I was unbelievably naïve. I never…
What I packed in my hospital bag for my still birth

Hip dysplasia update- Five years on from the Pavlik harness
It’s now January 2024, and time for a hip dysplasia update, as it’s five years on from the Pavlik harness treatment my baby boy received. And it feels like a lifetime ago. When I decided to blog about my sons…
