Santa need some Inspo? I got you! Here is my christmas gift guide for under 5s this year.
What is unfiltered?
Hey! Welcome to unfiltered. You might be wondering what unfiltered really is. I fell pregnant with my first daughter when I was only 17. Fast forward 2 years later I am now a 21 year-old SAHM to two gorgeous girls - Jasmine & Rosie and I am now 2 years deep into motherhood and going through the stages of postpartum. My girls are my whole world and I wanted to create a digital diary for me to look back on. Since publishing various aspects of my life online, many fellow mothers of all ages and stages have reached out to me which has lead me to here. I have experienced first hand the incredible pressure and influence the media has on our lives, how we choose to live and present ourselves everyday. i wanted to create a platform to show more of the real raw parts of living and connect with more people alike who wish to share their own. I have left comment sections around the site for everyone who wants to share their own experiences and advice.

Lets catch up <3
I am very aware I tend to go completely MIA at times and some days I update my story on Instagram more times than my two-year-old asks me questions I don't have the answers to. If I am being completely unpretending, it's more of a personality trait than circumstantial, I accidentally went two weeks without calling my dad once! We are officially three months into PP and I had my first night out. Since my last blog update, we settled into our new home (@ourlittlescottishhome) and hit 20K on Instagram! Over the last few weeks, I have had my fair share of trials and tribulations, from pest control and sickness bugs to meeting new friends and having my nails done for the first time in 9 months - to name a few.
Balancing Friendships As a Mum
There is no doubting the fact that motherhood changes every single aspect of your life including your friendships. Before bringing my daughters into the world, I was only 17 and my only responsibilities were making it to work on time at the call centre. At that point in my life, I only had a short period between lockdown restrictions nearly completely lifting and falling pregnant during that time which was only about three months that I spent either with my boyfriend or my friends socialising, going out getting dressed up and constantly on my phone chatting and planning things. Nowadays I am lucky if I can get a minute to respond to texts or FaceTime calls from my family never mind organising, planning or going out solo with friends.
