Becoming a mother is one of life’s most beautiful journeys for a woman. It’s a time filled with anticipation, joy, changes and surely fears and challenges. Gosh, you have so many questions popping into your head: What vitamins should I take? How do I stay fit? Which antenatal class should I book and what can...
One of the strangest things about being pregnant has got to be the cravings. We’ve all heard crazy stories about women eating coal or sponges – but thankful these types of cravings aren’t too common. Studies show that 50-90% of pregnant women experience cravings for specific foods and these are usually high-sugar and high-fat foods,...
Pregnancy is one of the most special and meaningful times in our lives. While the nine months may seem long, it flies by in a blink. During this time our body changes so much and we feel a new life growing inside. We feel every kick, every stretch, every hiccup and we create a connection...

It feels like ages ago when I was pregnant, 15 years ago now. I was lucky enough to have quite a nice and easy pregnancy, but I felt a bit alone. Until I started antenatal classes, I didn’t even know any other pregnant woman near me. Then I only learnt later, when my daughter started...

Why are Maternity Photos important? Pregnancy comes with plenty of hard days, but it’s also a time worth celebrating. You’re preparing to meet your baby, and you’re becoming stronger than you probably thought you could be. The bond you build with your child during this time carries on for the rest of your life, and...
I craved coke and cheesy things as they were the things that helped with the sickness!
I know that soda can ease digestion and I once read coke helps with stomach blockage. Didn’t know it helps with sickness. thanks for sharing!
For those who have experienced pregnancy, this must have been quite an interesting (and sometimes unusual) experience. It’s definitely fun to think about what the cravings could mean because there has to be something specific to it even though scientific research maybe hasn’t quite caught up with this. Thanks for sharing!
Yeah, definitely a unique experience as no other! I believe that when we crave something (pregnant or not, but especially during pregnancy) is a response to our body lacking something else 😉
Thanks for sharing, this was an interesting read!

I had a craving for milk and bacon – so I drank a pint of milk and ate a chicken and bacon sandwich for lunch every day for about 6 months! And yes, my daughter loves milk and bacon sandwiches now too 🙂
Oh wow! Bacon sandwich every day for 6 months? Not sure I could do it for more than a week. I guess pregnancy makes us doing strange things 😉 Thanks for reading and sharing your experience Lisa.
I haven’t had a baby yet, but I am sure many parents will probably be able to relate to this post. Thank you for sharing.
