When I started to write this post, this song kept playing over and over in my head.. maybe not all directly relevant but it defines a light at the end of the tunnel and a new chapter.. I’m Coming Home What did this mean for us, well it was HUGE, we had to up our game…… Continue reading Coming Home
We knew this was going to be a long road… The consultants, doctors, nurses had all given opinions but in reality no one knew how long we would need to be in hospital. It all depended on the growth and health of our babies. I had mentally prepared for a few weeks in Neonatal. It…… Continue reading Our Special Care
The delivery was just as quick as the pregnancy, another whirlwind of events and then it was all over… BAM! We had 3 babies!

We were bursting to tell everyone our…… Continue reading We’re just getting started!
There’s only one place to start. The beginning. So here’s our journey and how me became we. I met my husband at 18 in Nov 2001. We couldn’t be more different, he’s from a small village in Punjab, India and I’m born and bred in the Midlands. We dated in secret for a few years until…… Continue reading Journey
