Well my journey with Fitmums & Friends started in 2011 when my daughter came early by 12 weeks! I was stuck in the hospital bubble for 2 months, going back a forth to see her and hoping every day was going to be good news.  On 27th November we got to bring her home but it didn't last more than the afternoon as we were back in NICU after she stopped breathing. Once we got her home on the 10th December it was hard to adjust to normal life at home again, no comfort of nurses or doctors at your beck and call and it was scary. Having to look after my 17 month old son as well, i struggled with day to day tasks. I was diagnosed with post natal depression and went to House of Light to talk but it only helped so much.
