Had I been the one to choose, I am sure my childhood would have turned out less wounding. &#8230; <a href="http://www.metropolitanmum.co.uk/2011/07/who-would-you-choose-for-me/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[SMACK. I remember the tingling sensation on my cheek and how astonished I was about the loudness a flat hand landing on my face could cause. Smacking wasn’t one of my mother’s preferred educational measures, but in this particular case she made an exception and put in all her fears and anger and frustration. <a href="http://www.metropolitanmum.co.uk/2009/09/save-one-mammy/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Let’s call this first week ‘awareness week’. I was pretty aware of all the nasties that made their way into my stomach.

However, thanks to one of the best diet boosters ever, I managed to shrink a little. Despite being totally off our usual schedule – we went to Germany last weekend to introduce little L to her great grandma – and a long car journey that made us pass France (pain au chocolat &#038; sandwich jambon, fromage, beurre) and Belgium (waffles and chocolate), and finally guided us to our final destination, Germany, land of the Jaegerschnitzel. And did you know that there is a range of Ferrero chocolate snacks that are exclusively available in Germany? Of course, I had them all. <a href="http://www.metropolitanmum.co.uk/2009/05/wednesday-weigh-in-vol-ii-or-a-sad-reunion-with-my-friend-ferrero/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Little L was five weeks last Tuesday, and somehow it feels as if she’s been with us forever. Life without her is a distant memory and seems as long ago as a restful night. At the same time everything is still brand new and she surprises us every day with another trait of her personality shining through. I could gaze at her for hours and hours, feeling so blessed and lucky to have her. Of course, she is the most perfect, amazing, beautiful and smart little creature the world has ever seen, and I am almost bursting with pride. Vowing to respect her privacy, I have to fight against the urge to plaster this blogg with her pictures. <a href="http://www.metropolitanmum.co.uk/2009/05/a-life-taken-over/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
