I married (for the first time) at 39 and we (my husband and I) decided that we would not wait, but try to have a baby. I became pregnant within about 6 months and at 16 weeks miscarried for the first time. I miscarried another 2 times. I must say here that I am an American and had been helping a small church here in Ireland when I met my husband (an Englishman that had been living here since...

There is a question in this post, so bear with me while I set the scene with this story. I read during the week that a girl of 11 was raped in a park and on another occasion in toilets at a Mc Donalds restaurant (this happened not so far away in the UK) Apparently, they first approached her on a public transport bus. One boy, the ringleader, was just 13 when he carried out the first attack on the...

Last week, I read about the reaction to a story which was published about a mother, Jenny Wright in the UK, who jogged right through her pregnancy. I hadn’t read the original piece and only picked up on the chatter which the article created. When I saw a photo of her running with her bump I immediately thought – WOW – that’s amazing. It really saddened me then when I read that women (yes...

This is beautiful little baby Exton Elias (and mum Susan) who was born in February, as introduced to the world by proud dad Roberty Downey Jr. He [Downey Jr] admitted that he had to "exercise just a little restraint" with photos of Exton, and followed with “He’s so darn cute". Being born into a celebrity family can't be easy, it's a life us mere mortals will never experience...

An 8 year old girl in the US was given an award by her teacher for coming up with the most excuses for not having her homework done, and her mum is furious saying it’s tantamount to bullying. Initially I must admit, I was a bit surprised at the award being handed out to the child, it seems like a cruel approach to prove a point, and it’s not the constructive criticism that I would hope for my...

Hi folks. I would appreciate your opinion/advice on this. I am not pregnant but am recently married and it is something we plan to do when the time is right. I have the normal concerns around healthy pregnancy, emotional concerns, financial concerns etc esp in these recessionary times. But having been listening to my husband chatting with mutual friends, I now have a concern around weight gain. I...

Recently when watching MTV's hit series "Teen Mom", I realised something. Everybody feels so sorry for the girl's on the show because their lives are so tough, but they don't know the true hardship of being a young mother. Alot of them depend on their parents, one of their parents bought them a house, and another got a breast implant, chin implant, nose job and an apartment in Florida. Seems to me...

Firstly - thanks innocent & MummyPages for this fantastic oppertunity to sample these wonderful products and have our say. We are well aware of the innocent brand and have regularly had them - we do find them a tad expensive and only ever buy them when they’re on special offer, however saying this they are by far my girls’ favourite smoothie. We have had the tubes, all the flavours of smoothie...

Don't get me wrong - I'm on Royal Baby Watch as much as the next person. But of all the things that the Duchess of Cambridge will have to endure, I think this, for now of course, is probably the worst. I remember being pregnant with my first little one, and I was a bag of anxious nerves. I wanted my little one to arrive safe and healthy, but I was also so fearful of the unknown. I...

The Government has come under renewed pressure to introduce a ban on smacking children. An official complaint by children’s group to the Council of Europe claimed that “reasonable chastisement” is a violation of young people’s rights. They also criticise the Irish State for not attempting to outlaw the practice, despite calls from international human rights organisations, such as the UN...
