Isla Rae Isla Rae – 11 Months by MummyConstant 10th April 2013. > With only a month to go until the little lady is a whole 1 years old, we are making the most out of her being a “baby”. She still looks far too tiny to be classed a toddler – but I suppose the inevitable is going to happen.

So we are now 10 months old (10th March 2013), we haven’t really grown very much but we are learning a lot more and gaining more understanding of the world around us.

Isla Rae 5 months by MummyConstant 10th October 2012. We are 5 months in and loving it, we are nearly sleeping well, still the odd wake up call but its usually once a night for a quick milk top up!

Isla Rae 20 weeks: big girl by MummyConstant 27th September 2012. At 20 weeks, we are doing quite a lot of things and compared to Noah she still seems so tiny. She loves standing up in her “spaceship” which is great as it really helps me when I need to attend to Noah or quickly do some housework – yes it is known that I clean…
Isla Rae 16 weeks by MummyConstant 30th August 2012. I have been receiving some really useful info in my BabyCenter UK newsletters recently. One of them being on sleep and how much sleep little ones should get a night & day time naps. I would say its pretty close to Islas sleeping patterns, she usually sleeps 10 hours at night with a feed break…

Isla Rae 13 Weeks – 3 months by MummyConstant 10th August 2012. Yes, we are now at the 3 month mark, not only does she just seem so diddy, she is so strong & alert, it just doesn’t seem right.

Isla Rae 10 weeks by MummyConstant 20th July 2012. So we have now got to the 10 weeks stage, double figures, it sounds so scary, but I think 2 and a half months old sounds a little scarier.

Isla Rae My first month with Isla by MummyConstant 12th June 2012. This first month has been amazing and difficult, all at once, but I certainly wouldn’t change it for the world. Whoever told me that having 2 under 2 would be very hard to start with, wasn’t lying! I am hoping that the latter part of their advice “It will get easier” wasn’t a lie either.…
Isla Rae Week 1 by MummyConstant 23rd May 2012. Well, week 1 was eventful, but a lot less stressful the second time around from what I remember, there are stresses in other forms though!

Isla Rae 37 Weeks: Bumpometer by MummyConstant 14th April 2012. This week has been quite hard, in a number of ways… Firstly because Noah wasn’t walking, it meant a lot of picking him up and carrying him to places, it also effected the way he plays because he was depending on me to entertain him more so than normal. This did get better throughout the…
Reviews Working Mothers: The Essential Guide – Book Review by MummyConstant 23rd January 2012. Being a working mother I found this book very informative, its a great relief to know that I am simply not EXPECTED to have everything done and be that perfect! I am lucky that I come from a household where hubby helps out as much as me, I rarely cook and in turn I do the…

Albeit at 13 months 🙂 Noah’s HV came to see us yesterday afternoon, he is doing very well and she was very happy with his development.
