Baby #3? Mum Guilt & My First Childfree Trip!

Описание: This month’s vlog is a big one. Deep chats, lots of life updates, mum guilt (because of course 🙃) although I'm genuinely learning to let that sh*t GO. I mean, I took my first child-free trip (!!!), which was strange and wonderful and oh so NEEDED. I got to see Hannah Witton, catch up with some other YouTube friends (um, Leena Norms did the SWEETEST THING EVER for me in the MIDDLE of LUNCH)...got to just be ME for a bit. But of course, throughout the month (especially on a family trip to Cork) I wrestled with the whole third baby dilemma because...well...that question is living rent-free in my head. Bye new-me, hello baby 3? (because when I have a baby I genuinely feel like I lose myself entirely for a time) I mean that sounds TERRIFYING. Especially now that I'm in this amazing place. But also...the longer I wait, the longer we'll have adult children living at home (into our sixties at least!)...the more likely it'll be that I'll struggle to conceive...the thought of the regret is eating me alive though. Please voice ALL your thoughts on this down below.

I also went to the Bridget Jones 4 movie premiere with my sister-in-law, reviewed The Substance (which… whewwww), and I dived into topics like how I never scaled up as a YouTuber...how bloody sore trying to wean cold turkey is...I also got a bit of A HORN for some trees. Ya girl loves trees.

If you like cozy, chatty vlogs with a mix of parenting, travel, film reviews, and some deep life reflections...grab a cuppa and settle in!
