After months of trying, the stars aligned & we finally made it to our first Buggyfit Glasgow West class this morning in Victoria Park. It was a pretty nice day for once, if a bit breezy. Perfect for my first workout in a long time. The class itself was great. We did some running, and quite a …
Our New Baby Carrier Arrived!
Woo hoo! Our new carrier finally arrived! Now we can go to the park without us both roasting alive in a wrap! We’ve been using our Boba wrap since the little lady was born. She slept in it loads and got cuddles in it a lot. It meant I could do some hoovering, walk the dogs, …
Grosvenor Baby Cinema
We went along to, what I think is going to be our last, Baby Cinema this morning in the Grosvenor Cinema on Ashton Lane. We’ve had a good run (we’ve seen Hunger Games, Godzilla, Dallas Buyers Club, Gravity and The Wolf of Wall Street amongst other) but we’re getting too old for it now since …
Breastfeeding support in Glasgow
I’m a breastfeeder. Or I am with my little lady. (Who knows what’ll happen if I eventually have another kid.) As I’ve written about before, it was difficult at the beginning. And I didn’t know what I was doing. But after the first few weeks it had all worked out and we were doing well. …
A good wee haul…
We ventured south today to check out Kinder Handl in Mount Florida.
Great wee shop with very friendly & helpful staff (who very kindly played with the little lady whilst I had a look around…)
And not a bad haul for a fleeting visit and £10!
Baby Sensory
It’s the little lady’s favourite today: Baby Sensory. And it’s French week! (Pity her head is too gigantic for that little red beret her auntie brought back from France…) Each week has a different theme. We’ve had messy week, pirate week, cowboy week and under the sea week plus loads more. The class is in 3 parts. …
Garscube Community Playrooms
What a fantastic facility! We tried the Playrooms out for the first time yesterday and my little lady LOVED it. There are 3 rooms: the first has lots of tables for lunching, drawing, playing with dinosaurs amongst oh so many other things; the second contains lots of ride-on cars, dollies, buggies, a play house, building …
Bounce & Rhyme
We’ve been going to Bounce & Rhyme in the Mitchell Library for the past month or so. It’s exactly what it sounds like it’s going to be: a group of parents & babies/toddlers/pre-schoolers sitting singing songs and nursery rhymes whilst the babies get bounced on your knee and the toddlers attempt to escape from the kids …
Baby Massage
We’ve been going to a baby massage class in Scotstoun leisure centre for the past few weeks. It’s such a nice chilled out class. Each week we’ve done a different part of the body: legs & feet; arms & hands; back & shoulders etc. Each week we’ve lasted about 10 minutes before the little lady decided …
My First Post-natal Exercise Class
I recently found a post-natal exercise class in Scotstoun leisure centre. It’s been a while since I’ve done any exercise (I pretty much stopped any form of exercise as soon as I found out I was pregnant) and after a c-section and a wound that really doesn’t want to heal I thought I’d start with a …
