This time next year, we should be unpacked in our newly built house. Knowing that the packing and unpacking is on its way, I’m thinking of ways to stay organised whilst I pack away all the clothes and baby things that Lucy is growing out of. More

I was tap dancing up until I was 16 weeks pregnant, and then it was the Christmas holidays. For ten weeks I did nothing, searching for the right kind of activity to do. My physio brother-in-law put me onto hydrotherapy and I went and joined the class at SouthCare Physiotherapy at Murdoch Hospital. More
The best bibs ever!

I have found that the best bibs ever are from Cotton On Kids. They are quite pricey, $9.95 each or two for $15, but they are thick and absorbent, have cute designs, and fit nicely around the neck with a press stud. I wouldn’t bother with any other cotton/thinner bibs. *On sale until 26th September 2011 – these bibs are only $6.97 each!

Quite a few of my friends have either just had a baby, or are due in the very near future and this has me thinking about those first few weeks at home when everyone wants to come and visit (less you and more of) the new baby. To be honest, it’s lovely for people to come out of their way and visit you, but the thought of friends stepping into the messy, laundry-strewn, dishes-piled-high house was very stressful. I know that nobody else cares about the mess or having something to eat and drink, but for me I just wanted a tidy space to sit in with my visitors. So here are some tips to survive the onslaught of visitors with minimal stress! More
