Please stop asking...

78.

Hello my loves, I'm currently eating cheesecake while watching WWE Night of Champions on the WWE Network! I bloody love wrestling! I used to watch it as a little girl at a friends house and have loved it ever since. I don't watch it every time it's on because we don't have sky sports but I do watch it every Sunday morning with Robby :) 

Now something has been bothering me, this post may offend some people, and could very easily be seen as me 'having a pop' but I promise you I'm not, what I am about to write is something I think we should all just think about because it's something we all say to others...

Please stop asking me about children, please don't say 'you'll be next' or 'are you thinking about children?' Etc etc. The truth is, every time someone asks me about whether me and rob are wanting children or even trying for children, fills me with worry. 

I may have said this before I'm not sure but I have a condition called Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, a condition that causes cysts to develop on the ovaries which then may or may not effect the monthly lady time all us ladies hate. Which then makes it slightly more difficult to ovulate meaning becoming pregnant can take sometime. NOW not all women with this have any problems becoming pregnant what so ever, but then again, some do. I do not know what my chances are, it may be easy or difficult. Gosh who's to say even without this condition I would be able too. EVERYBODY IS DIFFERENT. 

I feel like it's something we all ask couples who have no children but before asking just think. We have no idea what that couples situation is, by asking we may be hurting them. We just don't know what could be going on. When I get asked about it, I'm not going to lie, it adds more worry to that little doubt in the back of my mind which thinks I'll never have babies. I understand the people asking mean no harm, it's sweet that they think myself and Rob will make good parents but I ask you please to stop asking me. I will let you all know if and when I become pregnant. There's no doubt in my mind that I will blog about it haha. 

I have well and truly hit the broody phase of my life and nothing would make me happier than to have a child with my love Rob. But I can't rush it, I can't click my fingers and all of a sudden become pregnant. The longer it takes the stronger the doubt. But I will continue to think 'if it happens, it happens' 



I really hope you can understand where I am coming from with this post. I promise I'm not telling anyone off. 

Much love

50. Hello my loves. WOW we've made it to the fiftieth blog post, if you're reading this one and you've read all of the ones before, thank you for sticking with me and my public diary entries. If you are new to my posts then Hello and welcome to my life, my little world of, well, I'm not to sure...this. I'm listening and watching Sia - Elastic Heart, I absolutely love this song and I love the video! It's so incredibly powerful , I watch it without knowing what it is that is keeping me so drawn to it (maybe Shia's body...) but seriously please go and watch it, don't read the comments of the video if it's the first time you're watching it and let me know what you believe it is portraying. I won't tell you what I believe because I don't want my view to alter what you may initially feel.      I feel like it might be a good time to update you guys on my Dad. By the way, everything I write is solely my feelings and from my point of vie

In difficulty there is strength and laughter

53. Hello my loves... This may seem like a very strange time, some may think I shouldn't write at all right now but as I'm just sat here, waiting, I feel I should (plus I've been given permission from my sister Kellie and Rob) On Wednesday 4th February, which seems like a lifetime ago, I got a phone call to say things with Dad had took a turn and we all needed to get to the home as time was looking short. I can't explain the fear that was going through me. The panic was so strong I was physically shaking until i got to the home to see him.  I had no idea what to expect, what had happened or what was going to happen, I just had to go with it. I guess we all do when faced with these extremes.  I have to admit I was pretty shocked to see that once the sedation had worn off he was back to his smiley self, even dancing along to the music.  But we knew it was serious when they said he was now completely nill by mouth, no food, no liquid.  An influx of fa

Our story with MND so far..

6.  These are my feelings and my thoughts, no one else's, just mine. In June 2013 my Dad was dealt the card of Motor Neurone Disease, a horrible disease. MND attacks the central nervous system and causes muscles to weaken and waste away. People with MND have to struggle everyday with activities that wouldn't have affected them before. It can be different with each person but sadly the outcome is always the same, there are no survivors, only true fighters! There is no cure... In some cases of MND the person can also have Frontotemporal Dementia. A less common form of dementia but nevertheless devastating. My Dad also has this... I first realised that something wasn't quite right around January 2013, my dad and I were sat in a cafe and he couldn't open a folded lottery ticket my exact words to him were "can't you use for hands or something" his reply was "no, my hand has got really weak" I asked him to make a fist with his right han
