how to deal with a miscarriage/ baby loss

Having suffered a miscarriage a year and 4 days ago, losing my twins was one of the hardest things I have ever gone through, and that's coming from someone who watched there girlfriend die, watching there best friend die from cancer, losing my stepdad and great grandad all within a few years period.

Dealing with a miscarriage is never easy, and having talked to women who have had multiple miscarriages, it doesn't sound like it gets any easier, but there are many ways to help cope. Even though it doesn't take the pain away completely, it may help lessen it; how to deal with a miscarriage


  1. Miscarriage hearts: in New Zealand, we have a nonprofit organization called huggable hearts, which makes rice-filled hearts at any weight you want to comfort you in your recovery. I got two, one for each of the babies I lost when your order; you get one more added on, representing you. Try and look up to see if where ever you are in the world if they have something similar. 



  2. Baby send aways are an amazing way to show there lives through your eyes. If you want some inspiration, go watch my baby send away, but you can do whatever you want to.

  3. if you had a stillborn, ask to hold your baby if you can and have some time with your baby.

4. RUSH into anything. Don't rush into picking up your baby stuff until you feel you're ready. It can be a stressful time, and rushing into anything isn't good for you.

5.spend time grieve, cry, sleep all day, eat tons of junk food, watch sad movies, do whatever you feel up to and don't push yourself to do anything your not able to do. You have gone through a serious loss and need to grieve, so do it whatever way you feel you can, and you're up to doing it.

Moving to a new country | with kids

Moving to a new country can be exciting but nerve wracking add in children and it can feel overwhelming to say the least, today I want to share all the advice and tips I have to move overseas after having just made an overseas move for myself with my two young daughters.   Mid January I moved from New Zealand back to Australia, some of you may know that I was actually born in Australia and lived over here until 2011 so for me this was about returning home but for my kids it was moving countries for the first time and while my youngest had no idea what was going on as she was only 3 months old my eldest had a range of emotions and it was honestly quite tough on her at times.   My first bit of advice is to just talk about the move, explain why you’re moving and what to expect in an age-appropriate way so that they can better understand what is going on, talk about all the positives with the move    that would interest them from new experiences to making new friend...

Tips for decluttering

Decluttering can help create a more organized and stress-free living space or even just make it easier when it comes time to move.   With my recent move I spent a few months slowly decluttering and downsizing my belongings to make the final step of selling what wasn’t coming and packing what was easier and I thought I would share some of the tips that helped me as an ADHD solo mum of two declutter my house after holding on and hoarding a lot of belongings from throughout the years.  1. Start small Choose a small area to start, like a drawer or a shelf, to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Work for a set amount of time, such as 15 or 30 minutes, to maintain focus and avoid burnout.  2. Sort items Label four boxes as "Keep," "Donate," "Sell," and "Trash." Sort all the items into these categories as you go, this also keeps things clean when you do decide to stop for the day. Remember to handle each item. 3. Evaluate necessity Ask yourself questions like:  ...
