Welcome to my blog, dear reader. This blog explores living life without children after multiple pregnancy loss and infertility treatments, and talking about the experiences of other women I know who have been through baby, infant and child loss. It’s about exploring what its like to actually live as a childless woman, past the age of hope of ever conceiving, of being able to have her own children here in England. I live in middle England (sounds very Tolkienesque) and am married, currently work full time and despite never achieving a living family, live life as best as I can.
People always seem to be amazed at my resilience to whatever life throws at me; what they don’t realise is that to me, losing my babies has been some of the worst imaginable things I have ever been through, aside from losing my parents. Everything else is a walk in the park after these events. So it’s not so much resilience on my part really; I’m merely being a charlatan with my internal thought processes thinking ‘ha! This is nothing!’ to the latest occurrence, whatever that may be.
I am lucky enough to have a strong and beautiful support network around the UK and indeed, the world, of women who have helped me through some of the darkest days. I also have the most wonderfully supportive husband who happens to be my best friend.
I hope you enjoy reading my blog, please feel free to leave a comment.
Thank you for opening your life and your heart to all of us to learn. I learned compassion for self and for others by reading your words. You cannot know what has happened to another person and showing kindness towards them may be the only kindness they receive that day. You are a beautiful human being Bamberlamb.

Ditto, beautiful lady… I found compassion and friendship via my soul sisters… You are one of them. Kindness costs nothing yet can save a person from the depths of despair. Love, lambs xxxxxx
