Mum Life

There I was, standing on the train station waiting desperately for my husband to meet me. The worst day of my life. I just needed his hug. He was my rock. I needed him in that moment so badly. We sat on the train together and held hands. His love got me through every day.

Where and how long have you lived in the Sutherland Shire? I’ve lived in…

I am originally from Gundagai, a small country town in New South Wales. I moved to Sydney to complete university. I have been a lawyer for over 3 years now. I met my husband Nick at Oatley Pub some 5 years ago. We were married at Terara House Estate last year and have welcomed our first baby, Jack into the world in May.

Today we have a guest post from Cath. A Shire local all her life who now called Como home with her husband and two daughters, aged three and one.

My first birth was pretty horrific and I want to be careful not to scare anyone here. It’s my second birth story that I’m hoping pregnant women will find uplifting and empowering.

Becoming a mum has strengthened me, taken myself confidence then returned it in a stronger way. I trust my choices of being a mum because I know I make them for the best of me and my family.
I also know how to cook a lot more too. Lol.

I work three days a week at a public hospital as a sonographer (someone who does ultrasounds). I have also recently started up a side business performing 3D baby bonding ultrasounds in Taren Point, called PEEK A BOO 3D ULTRASOUND.

Dylan is our confident, happy go lucky, free spirited daughter. Our son Dax is our cruiser, cool, calm and collected one. Dax has Congenital Cytomegalovirus cCMV.
