Category - First Pregnancy
At the age of eighteen I was scouted by MTV to be a model/actress for a documentary whilst working in an office. I went on to be signed to a daily national newspaper as a glamour model, appearing frequently in magazines, working as an actress for hidden camera shows and appearing regularly as a special guest on television, with personal appearances and photo signings across the country. At eighteen I had the world at my feet and a passion and drive for life.
In 2007 I discovered I was pregnant some months after the split of a relationship, and shortly before my final teenage years I had to face the concept of ending a successful modelling career and the lavish lifestyle I had become accustomed to in order to have a child.
This is a blog taken from a social networking site that I was using at the time, accounting each stage of my pregnancy from when I first found out to a few weeks after the birth.
As a model I would frequently write to my fans about my work and this blog accumulated a large following from across the world as a result which I would like to share with you now.
I welcome you to take an insight into my life back then and how the bittersweet discovery of having a child so young has made me the person I am today.

Gestation: 30weeks & 2days
So now I am 30 weeks and 2 days, I’m coming ever closer to the birth! My antenatal class the other day was interesting, it made me a little uneasy to see all the happy couples cooing...
Gestation: 34weeks & 4days
Today I’m 34wks + 4days. And what can I say, I could give humpty dumpty a run for his money on who looks more like an egg. I’m huge and bored I’ve been preparing for my final weeks by...
