The World of Siân

Ok....I never even knew that this was a thing until having me girls. To be honest personally I think this is absolutely absurd and unnecessary. Why would you expect a present off your partner for giving birth, surely your little ones safe arrival is present enough and all you should need. My girls are enough for me and the best present after being pregnant and giving birth to them. Without my partner they wouldn't be here. A good partner shows their appreciation by being supportive and hands on, not through trinkets etc. Hahaha rant over. Of course I'm sure people will disagree, this is just my opinion.

I have always suffered occasionally with the odd spot of eczema, it got particularly bad on my face when I first went to university and I thought this might have been down to the change in environment and the fact the water was a lot harder there than back home. Since having Tegan back in February 2015, I have learned that this wasn't the case and it was brought on through stress and anxiety.  This makes perfect sense, at the time I was going through a lot.  My parents had just separated, I had moved 162 miles from home and didn't know anybody, and my boyfriend at the time had moved in the other direction to Aberystwyth.  In all from intensive moisturising and eventually settling, meeting some great new friends and my boyfriend transferring to be at the same university it calmed down after a year.  I still have to make sure not to neglect my skin on my face and it has now become part of my routine.  Guaranteed it should be anyway, but how many of us can actually say we bother?!
