Sparkles & Stretchmarks: A UK Parenting & Pregnancy Blog: So You Want To Be A "Pro Blogger"?

http://www.sparklesandstretchmarks.com/2015/07/so-you-want-to-be-pro-blogger.html

Monday, 13 July 2015. So You Want To Be A "Pro Blogger"? When I first started this blog in January 2013, I had no idea that it would one day become my job.

Little did I know this blog would end up being the reason I never returned to work after my maternity leave ended. Fast forward to now and I guess I fall under the "pro blogger" category - this is not a term I personally like to use as I feel like ...

Friday, 10 July 2015. Our First Steps Into Baby-Wearing - Papoozle Review and Giveaway. Baby wearing is one of many things I assumed that I would embrace when I was pregnant with my first son that actually, for various reasons, ended up being something we didn't pursue. I loved the idea of wearing my baby - having the freedom to use my hands and get on with tasks around the house, having baby close to me, using it to build upon our bond - and I went into it with the best intentions. I have certainly been...

Everything is darker now and gloomier I feel.
