Title: Two fab new nursingwear lines added
We've recently taken delivery of a new nursingwear line: Milkdaze. Their tagline is Nursing. Uncensored. Brilliant!
This fantastic new line of nursing and postpartum transition wear from Milkdaze, is currently only available at Bella Mama in the UK.
Kristen DeRocha, founder of Milkdaze, felt that young moms should be able to breastfeed in public in something stylish -- without having to go somewhere private (or show off belly fat). The styles are wonderful, the fabric is soft and comfortable, and make breastfeeding incredibly easy.
The second new line we will stock in the next few weeks is Belabumbum. This is a great range of sweet, sexy and stylish loungewear and nightwear for pregnant and nursing mothers. Belabumbum’s maternity line encourages women to feel pampered, sexy, womanly, and just plain cool during what is truly one of the most important times of a woman’s life– during and after pregnancy. Over the last year, Belabumbum has introduced a number of new lines, including nursing bras and bottoms, loungewear & swimwear.
Check out our Sneak Preview section - I'm sure you'll love it!!

Title: Spring/Summer Stock
We are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our Spring/Summer stock. The Blissful Babes order has arrived, and the Sneak Preview section on the site shows the gorgeous tops which are currently winging their way to us from the US, Singapore and Sweden. All of the tops can be pre-ordered, so if there's something you like pounce now before it's all sold out! Last summer some of the most popular tops were sold out before they'd even officially arrived in stock!!
More swaddle blankets, burpie cloths, muslin cloths, bibs, pampering products, breastfeeding accessories, nighties, pyjamas, nursing bras and other beautiful items will be arriving in the coming months... keep checking back for new stock.
And most exciting of all... my sister and her hubby have recently announced that they are expecting the pitter patter of tiny feet ... hooray, a cousin for Finn and Orla at last!! So I'll be kitting her out with top outfits from Bella Mama to keep her looking stylish and feeling comfy through her pregnancy and beyond! Lucky girl!!

New stock is arriving daily - we are now proud to stock the 1 in the Oven/Mayreau brand, a real favourite of Hollywood's babes with babies! Further Spring stock will be arriving in March, and is simply gorgeous. Check back for a sneak preview soon.
We are also thrilled to be able to offer organic nursing clothes. The Mama Cocoon tops are made using organic cotton certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard.

They are a classic, simple design and go really well with jeans, skirts or joggers! At a purse-friendly price, they are a real nursing essential!!

Title: Christmas!!
The festive holiday season is rapidly approaching... (and also my birthday in early December, woohoo!) fun parties, beautiful presents, seeing friends and family, yummy food, festive fizz and sparkly accessories! Our fabulous seasonal outfits will allow you to dress up for every occasion, whilst being able to feed your baby easily wherever you go. Check out our stylish selection in the special Christmas section in the left hand Products column. We have some beautiful tops and dresses from Maternalove and Annee Matthew, which are just fabulous for this time of year. I met nursingwear designers Karen (Maternalove) and Annie (Annee Matthew) whilst in Singapore this year, and had a lot of fun trying on all of their new nursingwear. These ladies really know how to dress nursing mothers stylishly!! We also have some great advice in the article below from our friends at babyworld.co.uk - see the full article in the Christmas section. Happy Holidays...!

Title: Wedding Belles
I was the first to take the step into the unknown of marriage and now my youngest sister completes the line-up of married Lancaster girls! We are now Baxter, Fairclough and Weaver - the end of this Lancaster line - and the family tree now includes Mexican and German bloodlines!
Anyway, what an amazing wedding day we had. Of course the bride looked gorgeous and fantastically happy to be marrying Mark. I have to say that I felt a bit guilty for worrying about what I would look like a few months post-baby. However, I knew that all eyes, if not on my sister, would be on baby Orla anyway! I was also a little worried that Orla would choose to spit up on my lovely new outfit. Well, not to worry I packed one of our lovely burpie cloths and, phew, the day passed without incident!
I am sure my Mum and Dad are looking forward to the sound of little feet from my other two sisters so hurry up Ladies, and getting popping out some cousins for Finn and Orla.

Wow, September so soon! I am back from my fabulous round the world trip (San Francisco, Brisbane, Sydney, Perth and Singapore) and it was wonderful. Travelling went smoothly, and Finn and Orla took the time changes all in their stride - unlike myself and Dan! The nursing tops I took with me were great, and I managed to feed 5 month old Orla in a whole variety of different locations - beach huts, boats, planes, parks... We caught up with friends who have been out in Australia for the past few years - everyone we know seems to be emigrating... We are off to a party tomorrow for more friends who are making the move to Melbourne!!
Anyway, our second "baby" to be born this year, Bella Mama, is now officially open for business. Big thanks and kisses to my wonderful husband Dan, who is the technical brains of the operation, and my gorgeous children Finn and Orla, for giving me the inspiration in the first place! Finally, thanks to everyone who has ordered from the site, and for your lovely messages. I am thrilled that you love the products.

Title: Stocking Store
I am having great fun stocking the store ready for launch in September. We will be stocking loads of fantastic things which I am so excited about!
I just took delivery of the Libby Dibby skirts yesterday, which are truely fabulous. I will be taking one on my trip to Australia and US this month. Travelling with a 4 year old and 4 month old, I think the double sided skirt will come in very handy when I am covered in grubby handprints!
I have already sold some of the swaddling blankets too, even before we have officially launched. The blankets are deliciously soft, and are a wonderful way of snuggling your baby off to sleep. Orla slept like a dream in hers, and enjoys having a kick about on the blanket during the day.
Please keep checking back as we add more lovely stuff to the site. Also if you have any comments or suggestions, I would love to hear them!
