Naturally raising iron levels during my third pregnancy.
Hello! I went into pregnancy with incredibly low iron readings that were a concern to doctors and soon, naturally I was offered iron tablets, infusions and asked if I wanted to block my periods yet not once asked about my diet or lifestyle in general. I didn’t feel comfortable with any of the options presented and took the readings as a sign I needed to make some changes.

5 years ago, my experience of ‘organic’, was a shelf barely visible in the chilled section of the supermarket and charging at least three times the prices of the vegetables that sat next to it. It wasn’t until I got pregnant in 2017 with Heppy that I watched ‘The True Cost’ movie and instantly began to unpick the many areas of my life where I was buying because of what I’d be told, sold, or shown rather than discovering for myself what my family and I really needed.
Where we shop online. Our top places to buy ethically.
I thought it was about time to get into one blog, a list of places where we shop the most. I have tried out countless places, looking for what works best for us as a family and these are our most loved. They will most probably change and evolve over time. I am always looking for ways to cut down our spending yet find things that don’t come at a cost to people and the planet.
