Why I'm here

Hi there and thanks for stopping by, welcome to My Little Lamb, another one of those parenting blogs.


It's possible to do all the research in the world when preparing for your new little bundle of joy, but nothing can really prepare you. No one really tells you the inner secrets of pregnancy or being the good mum (or it doesn't quite sink in until it happens).

I wanted to create this blog to talk frankly about how I found becoming and indeed being a mum when I had no real experience of what it is to have a "good mum" or know what a good relationship is with a mother which is not based on fear, anxiety and abuse.  I hope that for anyone else out there that grew up in an abusive household will know they can be a good mum - or dad - and history does not need to repeat itself.

I hope to do my best to keep this blog updated regularly, so let's begin!
