In theory, getting pregnant is easy. After all, most of us spend a good many years aiming to not get pregnant, so we assume that when we want to it will all happen easily and quickly. Right time of the month, no contraception and Bob's your uncle, or something like that. In reality, it will take most couples 6 months or longer to get pregnant. But there are plenty of things you can do to boost your chances of getting pregnant - beyond the obvious! Here are 10 things you should do when trying to conceive - and 3 you shouldn't.

10 Ways to Make Money as a Stay at Home Parent

If you are a stay-at-home parent looking to make some extra money, there are lots of ways and means out there. Let's be honest, none of them are going to make you a millionaire, but combining several different streams together will pay for any extras or enable you to stay at home with your family part or even full-time. Even better, most of them can be done in your PJs or on the sofa in the evening. Here are 10 ideas for how to make money as a stay at home parent.

How to Create a Bee-Friendly Garden

Pollinating insects such as bees and hoverflies are in decline, and as vital as they are for our and our planet's survival, each of us should be doing our bit to help them. By planting nectar and pollen rich flowers over a long season, even the most amateur gardener can help reduce this decline, and it really doesn't take much effort. By planting a bee-friendly garden, you will help them thrive, and in return these wild pollinators will ensure your garden plants continue to reproduce through seed, and help crops like apples, strawberries and tomatoes successfully set fruit. Win, win all round.

How to Use the 9 Principles of Nordic Design In Your Home

The recent obsession with the Danish principle of hygge has been all about making things cosy, with layering, warmth and comfort being key - perfect timing for all those blanket sales people!

10 Ways Your Cat Says "I Love You"

Cats have an unfounded reputation as disloyal, perfidious creatures who live alongside us simply because a bowl of food turns up fairly regularly. They are reputed to be standoffish, overly independent and difficult to understand. Recent research has suggested that cats have a long-term memory of at least a decade, and animal behaviourists are gaining new understanding of their actions all the time. The truth is cats are independent creatures with their own thoughts and opinions on what is and isn't acceptable; we humans just have to put up with it! But do they actually love us? Well, if you think your cat doesn't care, think again.

Roasted Red Peppers with Orecchiete

We're in the process of clearing out our freezer ready to clean and de-frost in preparation for Christmas. During November I usually double cook a dozen or so dishes to stack the freezer with 'ready meals' ahead of the busy season. My aim is always to avoid shopping altogether between Christmas Eve and 2nd January, apart from a trip to the farm shop for more fruit and veg. One of our favourites to prep is this delicious pasta dish, which freezes as is, ready to bung in the oven on a wintry afternoon. Or just cook it from scratch and enjoy at once - delicious either way.
