Hi everyone,
Thought I best pop on and update my page. I've had quite a few new and old clients message recently.
Most of you will be aware my baby boy was born 6/8/23. I didn't have the best pregnancy at all this time round and was ill quite a lot. Due to the gestational diabetes and the strep B my baby was taken away from me and placed into NICU because he wasn't breathing properly and needed help. He was very sleepy, not feeding well and had jaundice. Myself and Jimmy-Lucas spent the first week of his life still in hospital. I find talking about that week and looking at the pictures very difficult and extremely upsetting. I am traumatised by it all even though I know my baby is OK now. It will take me a while to process all of what's happened and I have actively mentioned it to my midwives and health visitor.
I am aware I did originally hope to start seeing clients again before Christmas, but that's absolutely not realistic at all. My business isn't my only job and I don't intend on returning to my other job until July/August next year so I think it's fair to say my own business will be a similar time too. We have a lot of healing and bonding to do in the mean time.
People who bought vouchers last year that were due to expire this Christmas I will extend until next Christmas. Its not your fault I've had a bad pregnancy, moved house and now on maternity leave.
Regular clients please rest assured I will be back, but please be patient with me in the mean time.
Lots of love and light to you all,
Mel 😘
