As a young mum I somewhat expected to encounter a couple of side glances or comments under the breath but the reality of it really did shock me.

However, it surprised me how many people asked me ‘are they a mistake?’ when we announced I was pregnant to people.

Before having Aria, I used to absolutely love being outside. Come rain or sun, wind or snow, I would constantly be out walking, I could walk for miles and it wouldn’t phase me in the slightest.
