Hi! I’m 24 weeks pregnant and currently sewing myself a maternity wardrobe, wit lots of tips and how-to’s along the way, I’d file it under “useful tips and inspiration” – new dress coming up this week!

Fabulous project! Love the blog. The great thing about doing your own maternity collection is that you’ll be able to create things that flatter you and hopefully will be good to wear after the baby is born too!

Thanks Antonia,

I’m absolutely delighted and honoured to be among all these wonderful mummy bloggers. Mums Got A Business.com is my new baby and I hope you’ll all watch as we take our first steps out into the world.

I’m going to have lots of fun connecting with all the other wonderful bloggers on your list. And look forward to featuring many of them as mumpreneurs of the week over on my blog.
love

Thank you so much for choosing my blog to post.
It is very exciting! Well done with it all.

I have been a sister to a brother in Japan this month so normal blogging has only just resumed, He came home and has now gone back – to the Fukushima area.
