Feeding Tube Awareness Week is February 6 – 10 so I thought I would write about my experience with tube feeding. I knew nothing about feeding tubes or that they ever existed until we had Piper. Did you know there are five types of feeding tubes; Nasogastric (NG)...

So in 4 weeks’ time our baby girl will be 2! Ahhhh. It’s been rough to say the least, but as I reflect from where we started and where we are now I know we have come so far. I must admit I never really go into detail with Piper’s stuff, mainly because people don’t...

I remember every detail of the day we received Piper’s diagnosis. I remember what outfit I was wearing, the chair I was sitting in, I remember the expression on the doctors face as he delivered the news. I could see the disappointment that he had got it all...

This one’s going to be painful! As a first time mum I planned everything out. I decided I was going to breastfeed or at least try as hard as I can and if it doesn’t work then I will give her formula. I was okay with that. I was just going to give it a go. There is so...

I often feel really alone on my journey. My friends and family don’t quite understand. I know they hurt with me and understand parts of it, supporting and loving me unconditionally where they can, but never really getting the full picture. I think when you are...
