Laura & Ted’s Top Picks #2

This was meant to be a ‘March top picks’ post to go out two weeks ago, but life and sickness bugs got in the way. Excuses, excuses, eh? So now it is ‘top picks #2’ – which we’ll get on with, without further ado. This month we’ve got hand cream, lovely art prints, rubber ducks and MORE. You’re welcome.   Aveeno Skin Relief Restoring Hand…

Life Update – April 2019

It’s April already! Yikes. This means that, even though it’s still nearly two months away, I can say that Ted will be two at the end of next month. (Not that I’m expecting a sudden influx of queries about his age. It just struck me the other day: how close his birthday is and how it doesn’t seem like two minutes since his first. SOB.)…

Do Breastfed Babies Sleep Through The Night? How Ted Started Sleeping Through + What I’ll Do Differently Next Time

*N.B. I’m planning to write a separate post about breastfeeding, so this is mainly a post about sleep. Or lack of. Or of finally getting some sleep after what felt like a lifetime of none…. Ted really didn’t sleep that much when he was a baby. At least, I don’t think he did. But he must’ve done, mustn’t he? Because that’s what babies do. So…

Life Update – March 2019

It’s just occurred to me that I first started writing these updates when Ted was seven months old, and he’s now 21 months, so I’m giving myself a little pat on the back for sticking with them for so long. Sure, they’ve mostly been sleep-deprived rambles about morphing into Sybil Fawlty and how I worried I’d stunted Ted’s development by holding one leg and not…

Laura & Ted’s Top Picks – February 2019

Before we start, I’d like to clarify that I haven’t taken to referring to myself in the third person. Fear not. (Thought I’d clear that up, on the off-chance you were worried that I’d decided to refer to myself only as ‘Laura’ – and not ‘me’ or ‘I’ – from now on.) This post is actually called ‘Laura & Ted’s Top Picks’ because ‘Mine &…

A Spending Diary

Because I’m a nosey parker, I love reading ‘spending diaries’ on other websites and blogs (check out Refinery29’s series, for example), taking a peek at what other people blow their cash on. I therefore thought I’d create my own – for me and for any fellow nosey parkers out there. I also thought it might make me more ‘mindful’ – overused word, sorry – about…

The Standout Set Newsletter – Sign Up Here!

I recently launched a group called The Standout Set, inspired by the amazing women in my hometown in Yorkshire who are creating their own businesses and launching their own projects / ‘side hustles’. The idea behind The Standout Set is to build an awesome, supportive network to help counteract the self-doubt and/or loneliness that can sometimes be a by-product of being self-employed, or of trying…

YOU Are The Expert On You

This is a post about a midwife appointment I’ve just attended, yet it’s also about how we know ourselves better than anyone and need to trust ourselves more in all facets of life, so bear with, won’t you? I’ve just got home from my 16 week midwife appointment. It should have been a bog-standard, unremarkable appointment to take my blood pressure and review my recent…

A First Trimester Update & Ramblings About Pregnancy Superstition

I wasn’t 100% sure about writing about pregnancy on here. I’ve written about pregnancy already, of course – BUT my blog posts about all things up-the-duff were written post-event, months and months after Ted’s arrival, when it felt OK and safe to be writing about it. Now I’m pregnant again (surprise, for anyone who knows me and didn’t know!), I had to think twice about…

Hate Self-Promotion? 7 Ways To Build A Business Without It

This time six years ago, I was in the early stages of launching my own PR & copywriting consultancy. As I’ve touched on previously, at that stage in my life I’d recently moved back to the UK – and to my hometown – after living and working in Sydney, Australia for almost three years. I’d loved Sydney, and met some amazing people there. Yet my…
