ooow just spotted this thread...great idea!
I'm Caroline. I'm 25 (altho i weirdly 4get my age all the time so i might b wrong abt that!) I'm a SAHM and plan to be 1 for as long as we can afford (altho i'm hoping to start a little home business soon selling some stuff i've made so what this space!) i've been married to DH for just over a year, together for 4 years altho we've known each other for a looooong time. Kian was our little surprise 9that we found out abt when we got home from our honeymoon!!!) He was born july 21st by emergency c-section after 37 hours of labour...i had planned a homebirth so most of that was spent at home using hypnobirthing techniques. I love him to bits and am loving being a parent more than i could ever have imagined!
Apparently i'm a hippy mum (or so people have told me lol). I attachement parent, baby wear- i currently use my ring sling most of all but plan on making some new slings soon, part time co-sleep, BLW and generally go with Kians flow when it comes to parenting.
I FF- but i'm really sad abt it! i really struggled with BF- i spent a little while in hospital after Kians birth and i didn't get a lot of help (infact i got some terrible advice) and it all went rather wrong in that department i tried relactation without much success. If i were BF tho then i am very pro extended BF and allowing LO to self wean.
We've just started using cloth nappies part time (with the plan to go full time when we have enough nappies). i am currently attempting to grow some of our own veg in the smallest garden ever! and i love arts and crafts and making things...especially 4 Kian.
I have 2 rescued black cats called bruno and lucy (if i had my own way i'd b a mad cat lady and adopt millions!) and a gecko...called 'the gecko'! I'd luuurv some chickens if when we get a bigger garden! infact my dream is to have a small holding one day!
thats abt all i can think to say abt me
