Firstly my name is Amber, I'm 22 from the UK and mummy to a wonderful (at times) 1 year old called Oakley (I will refer to him as O or son).
Why am I called The Unconventional Mum? Well simply because that's what I am. I mean don't get me wrong I can be your average health visitor approved mum but my child still head bangs to death metal and yes I do bribe him with milky buttons but hey we've all got to have a bit of fun right?
Why am I doing a blog? It was suggested to me by a friend as I have quite a severe anxiety disorder which makes me doubt myself and my ways a lot, she suggested this may just prove I'm 'not that bad' and that there are plenty more of us unconventionals out there.. plus I'm a sentimental cow and will probably cry looking back this time next year.
I will always post as honest as possible, I probably will call my child a shit head some days and refer to what my crazy gang on BabyCentre 2014 call the baby/toddler bin. But we all need a baby bin some days.*
Either way I hope you enjoy and feel free to add you input and share your unconventional tactics and experiences.
With love
Amber
*Please note we do not really put babies/toddlers in bins. Not always anyway.
Ssshhhh the baby bin is a secret!!! I love o's face in this pic xx
