Here you can expect to find honest and impartial reviews of products and services that make parents’ lives easier. Thanks for stopping by – feel free to have a look around!
As you will have probably gathered from my last few posts(!), I am a big lover of setting goals and plans. I find they help keep me focused, give me something to aim for, and help keep me motivated when I might otherwise feel a bit despondent. As it is the start of a...
As I write every year, I can't believe that yet ANOTHER year has flown by, and that here we are, waving goodbye to 2017 and saying a big fat hello to 2018! Each December, I take a look back and reflect on the highs and lows of the year gone by. As with last year, it...
I recently shared a Review of my 2017 Blogging Goals - overall I am really pleased with my progress in 2017. In just 12 months, I feel I have taken my blog to the next level, and taken Real Mum Reviews from being a part time hobby, to being a part time income for me...

As you will know from my previous posts... I spend a LOT of my night times awake. With a child who simply DOES NOT sleep, I seem to spend the majority of my time sat in a small nursery chair breastfeeding in the dark. As lovely as these moments can be - the cuddles,...
One thing you can pretty much guarantee about Christmas, is that at some point it feels inevitable - you are going to waste an hour of your life queuing in the post office surrounded by everyone else, all of whom have picked the EXACT.SAME.TIME to panic send all their...
