Paula's story

Paula's story

I have 3 girls (I know 🤯) age 5, 2 and 5 months. My husband works off shore for months at a time and had done extended trips during my pregnancy due to travel restrictions. We also have no real support to speak of.  


I had pre-eclampsia and with restricted growth with my first, my second was a perfect pregnancy and birth and my third was a section due to placenta previa (I have pretty much experienced everything!)

 
This year has been a mixture of frustration, joy and excitement (with a bit of home schooling thrown in). 
Life with 3 sassy (and sometimes, unfortunately, observant when it comes to pointing out my parenting flaws) little girls is always fun 🤩
