Mr Nutcase: phone case Review

I was given the chance to review a personalized phone case from Mr Nutcase which is a website where you can buy customized phone and tablet cases.  The website itself is so simple to use,  you can either create your own or choose from collections.  If you create your own there are lots of different layouts and amounts of photos to choose from, you then simply upload your photos to the template. I decided to choose from the collections simply because its so close to bump arriving I would like all of the children on a case if I made a photo one. I started  by selecting my phone make and model which then gave me a choice of either ultra lightweight slimline or executive flip leather style case, I chose the flip style and then had a choice of over 40 backgrounds, after choosing one you can then add text which can be moved around, change color size etc clip art can also be added here. You can then preview your case and add to cart if your happy. The whole process including checkout

My favourite beauty products

Up until now my blog posts have been dominated by pregnancy and baby so I thought I would share with you some of my favorite beauty products. I have two favorite fake tan brands which are St Tropez and Laurens way they both give a good natural looking tan that's not of the orange kind.   I prefer St Tropez lotion to mouse for the simple reason it just goes on my skin better.  I have only used one of Laurens Way products which is the medium mouse they have now bought out the darker than dark which I would love to try.     My favourite moisturiser is vitamin e cream after years of not using any moisturiser on my face tut tut i know I tried many none of which seemed to suit my skin and would leave it greasy.  I buy superdrug own brand  and at £2.99 for 475ml its a bargain and lasts ages. My current favorite foundation is Benefit Hello Flawless, I say current because it depends how my skin is, how tanned I am etc to what kind of foundation i use I'm findi

The Snoozle Review

If your a reader of my blog you will know I haven't been sleeping well and have been in a lot of pain.  Well i was lucky enough to be offered a Snoozle  in exchange for a review, So whats a Snoozle I hear you say.... The Snoozle is a slide sheet, specifically designed to help pregnant women who suffer from back and/or hip pain turn over in bed and get a good nights sleep.  you can use your snoozle to help you get in and out of your car.  keep one in your hospital bag or your home birth kit - the Snoozle can really help you keep mobile and comfortable during labor. So what Do I think of The Snoozle firstly I had never heard of it before but if I had would of probably of bought one, it is reasonably priced i think at £24 and you can choose from 3 different colored trims.  I was also pleasantly surprised when it arrived as it came in a lovely box which i hadn't been expecting also there was an information/instruction leaflet inside which tells you about the product

30 WEEKS PREGNANT

So I was officially 30 weeks pregnant yesterday which I find quite amazing as the weeks are flying by.   Only 10 weeks or less (hopefully not more)   and he will be here adding to the noise and chaos his 3 sisters make. So whats going on this week? According to bounty ( www.bounty.com ) at 30 weeks your little one can hear a lot from the outside now and you might notice extra kicks in response to loud noises. Your baby measures around 39cm now, top to toe. On an ultrasound you might be able to see your baby open its eyes. More light will penetrate inside your tummy as your pregnancy progresses and they will begin to adapt to this. Your baby still won’t be able to feel temperature or pain though, as its nerve cells are still maturing. As a 30 week pregnant mum-to-be, you may start to notice ‘Braxton Hicks’ contractions , where your bump goes hard for a minute or two. If you suffer from leg cramps, try wearing support stockings and putting your feet up when you can. Do yo

BLOOMING MARVELOUS SUPPORT BAND REVIEW

BLOOMING MARVELOUS SUPPORT BAND REVIEW Some of you may know if you have read my blog posts about my pregnancy that I have been suffering a lot of pain and when I discussed this with the midwife at my last appointment although she didn't seem really interested and had the kind of just one of those things you have to put up with attitude she did suggest that I could buy a bump support. I had a look on line at some and finally decided to buy a blooming marvelous maternity support belt from Mothercare.   I was a bit skeptical as it was the cheapest one that I had found at just £12,   however it did have good reviews and i couldn't afford to buy a more expensive one.   It comes in two colours either black or white and three different sizes which are small, medium and large. I finally went to mothercare yesterday to purchase one and i have to say I am so glad i did and was definitely £12 well spent.   I put it on as soon as i got home and hav
