WHO AM I ?

Hi, I am Emma.

Us girls want it all don't we?! And why can't we?!

I am the, not quite 40 year old, female, who is really trying to have it all and it's not easy but I am always up for a challenge!

Stay tuned to Mum Is The Boss blog for my weekly blogs on juggling SMC (Single Mother by Choice) with IVF combined with a demanding career and handling some of those hurdles that trip us up along our Dream Journey path.

Enjoy!

40, Single, Moved Back in with the Parents, Self-employed, oh and did I mention...Knocked Up...

A very dear friend of mine asked me a couple of weeks back.. So how do you position yourself these days, how could I sell you in? I thought about it for a minute, trying to come up with some corporate level pitch and I just laughed and said well let's tell it how it is... Hi I am Emma... I have just turned 40, I am still single, I recently moved back to Perth so moved in with mum and dad until I decide where I would like to buy my own place, I have recently set up my own Bran

How did it get so late so soon... says Dr Seuss.

Age is a big consideration when one is keen to have a child. And sometimes "life" just gets in the way. Or does it? Do we always need to be stressing about something or working hard to prove ourselves? Do we constantly need to be working towards goals, creating challenges and over- achieving on them, eating lunch at our desk, working all through the night and making sure we are always available on our iPhone 24/7, chasing that promotion, paying debts off, completing "this" b

The Donor and IUI journey

**Any questions you may have on IVF/IUI, donors or anything to do with getting pregnant as a single mum, please contact me at my Contact page and I am happy to help out where I can**.

The Beginning of the Journey and Priorities.... did I have them all wrong - of course!

When I set my mind to something, that's it... June 2014, another birthday which means another year older, so I made myself an appointment with the GP... asking for a referral letter to get on board this Motherhood train. After some research, I had chosen to go with IVF Australia to take me on this journey, I selected my IVF specalist and went through all of the tests... Hurrah at last I hear those words every female, who wants to be a mum at some point in her life, wants to h

A Girl Who Wants It All

It's been a tough few months but I am a strong and positive woman so I am coming through the other side... This blog takes you through my story of a single woman, who works really hard and also tries to have a baby. I am and always have been very career driven, continually searching for Mr Right/Mr Perfect - whichever could come first and always had the dream that I would be a mum. The Girl Who Wants It All... And why not?! So there "I" was... - I had finally reached the pinn
