And just like that, our little, much loved peanut head turned ‘1’. 👶🏻❤️☺️. He’s a beautiful, fun baby and the most inquisitive/curious little boy I’ve ever met. Nothing (and I mean nothing!) gets past him without a thorough investigation first 🤣 . . In my head, he’s not really 1 tho. He was born over 2 months prematurely so saying he’s one almost makes me feel a bit cheated out of his first year. So yes, he’s 1 on paper, but 10months old to us. (Once he gets past his first year from his due date, I guess it matters less but for now, to me, he’s 10 months). Any other preemie parents know what I mean? . . For his birthday, we kept things simple – I don’t like to spoil my son so we didn’t get him a single gift (poor kid 🤣🤦🏼♀️) and we kept things simple again with a gathering of friends at a local pub. It was so lovely to see everyone and bubba did get lots of lovely, kind gifts from friends and family (which I didn’t let him open all on one day but instead spread out over a week! 🤣🤣). I was touched by the effort people made ❤️ . . I was gonna do a nice 1st birthday pic Instagram style, but being honest – I couldn’t be bothered 🤣🤦🏼♀️ so here we are blowing out the cake candle and with a very untidy, birthday corner. . . I like to keep my bubba private but I share, as always, to give encouragement and hope to anyone who is currently experiencing PPROM or NICU to try and show you that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Stay strong, you got this xx . . . #babyboy #mumandson #1stbirthday #birthdayboy #love #preemie #31weeker #pprom #ppromawareness #nicumama #nicuwarrior #nicu #28weeker

Never ever have I been as nervous on TV as I was just then. . . We have launched! (And yes, I know this is a rubbish picture btw; it is an ‘action shot’ and luckily for me I’m not very vain, hence the share). . . #gbnews
Woah! This picture just popped up on my phone reminders. This was exactly one year ago today. 😳 . I was 28 weeks pregnant and my water just suddenly broke. No warning signals at all. I was immediately hospitalised and was taken to theatre for an emergency c-section to bring my bubba out. I was in hospital for a month and then my bubba for 6 weeks (all through the pandemic). . . Despite the ‘thumbs up’, I can honestly say I don’t think I’ve ever been as afraid as I was here. . . I thank god we had a happy(ish!) ending. . . I share to raise awareness of PPROM and tell you that if you’re in this situation right now, I understand what you’re going through ❤️ . . . . #PPROM #prematurebaby #preemie #pregnancycomplications #28weeker #31weeker #NICU
Me casually putting my lipstick on tonight -live on air- thinking we where on a commercial break (which we where we were supposed to have been!). Gotta love a live tv blunder! . . . . . #livetv #tvpresenter #tvstudio #makeup #bloopers
My show is coming… 🙌🏻📺👊🏻☺️ . . Can’t wait to debate the things that matter to you. . . #debate #currentaffairs #politics #tv #tvpresenter #gbnews #workingmamma #workingmumma #workingmum #DewbsAndCo #MichelleDewbs
I had a morning work meeting in town today. Gotta say, I’m SO proud of myself for managing to get both myself and my (toddler tantrum) child up and out of the house looking reasonably presentable, all before 9am. The difficulty of this task, should not be underestimated 🤣🤦🏼♀️(no, I do not have a nanny). . . Both the view and most certainly the coffee were very much appreciated upon arrival at the meeting. In fact, I could have had a lie down too 🤣🤦🏼♀️ . . Respect to all you working parents out there, the juggle is real (but I wouldn’t change it for the world).🥰 . . . . . . #workingmama #workingmamalife #worklifebalance #toddlertantrums
Good to see my son and his cousin (my niece) making good tv viewing decisions at such a young age! ❤️ . . . . #workingmama #workingmum #tvpresenter #gbnews #family

Wow – What a privilege to have my very own, prime time TV show, 5 nights a week on GB News, starting soon. 📺 . . I grabbed this opportunity with both hands because I am passionate about trying to make sense of this crazy world we are living in right now. I’m also passionate about shining a light on different voices, different perspectives, different stories and life outside of the Metropolitan London bubble. . . I can’t wait to debate the topics that matter to people and also use my platform for campaigns and raising awareness of different causes. . . Expect robust debate, challenging opinion, integrity and passion. . . I hope you’ll join me on this journey… . . . . . #newchapter #newbeginnings #GBNews #debate #opinion #currentaffairs #primetimetv #tvpresenter #integrity #northerngirl
Congratulations to one of my oldest and dearest friends @katie_wallis1 . . We’ve known each other since v early night school days when basically she was waaay smarter than me and got great grades while all I wanted to do was mess around or go and drink alcohol. Sadly, decades on, not much has changed 🤣🤦🏼♀️ Love you Katie x . . #oldfriends #newchapters #christmaswedding
Yes, it does…8pm, Sunday 13th June. . . The first ever ‘Dewbs & Co’ will be broadcast the next evening, Monday 14th at 6pm. Excited and nervous! 😳😊 . . . . #newchapter #gbnews #debate #currentaffairs
Have you checked out my new show yet? . . Not gonna lie, presenting live TV has been a steep learning curve- thinking, talking, reading, clock watching & listening to multiple people at the same time isn’t always easy! Nor is it easy trying to get a brand new channel off the ground and asking people to change their viewing habits. But, I love a challenge! . . I am proud of what we are building (and always open to feedback as to how we can make it better!). . . You can watch on your TV, YouTube, or listen to it on your radio. Mon-Fri 6pm . Freeview 236 | Sky 515 | Virgin 626 | Freesat 216 . . If you haven’t checked it out yet, give it a whirl, I’d be delighted for you to join me… . . . #DewbsAndCo #Debate #CurrentAffairs #TV #LiveTV #TVPresenter
I don’t like to ‘over share’ pictures of my bubba on social media but as many of you will know, the end of my pregnancy and the start of my son’s life were very scary times. As I myself laid in hospital for a month (when I lost all water at 28 weeks) and then as my tiny, tiny baby laid in an incubator on NICU (initially unable to breath independently) for 6 weeks after a very premature emergency c-section, I was absolutely terrified and desperately searched for examples of other people going through this who had ‘happy endings’. I promised that if we got through it all, I would share happy moments of my boy to help give comfort to those who are now in my situation. . . So here is our boy at his first nursery session. Was a very emotional moment with some tears (for me, not for him, he wasn’t remotely bothered! 🤣🤦🏼♀️). . . He is a happy, placid (although god knows where he gets that from!) beautiful, clever, funny, wonderful little boy and we all love him so very much ❤️ . . We’ve been on such a challenging journey (as I’ve always shared, pregnancy, childbirth and often motherhood isn’t always the happy experience that many paint it to be & I wish more where honest about that) and it means everything to me that things got better and that our boy is happy. . . If you’re going through PPROM, pregnancy complications or you’re currently a NICU mama like I was (or a new mum struggling with exhaustion and things like CMPA and reflux etc)- I hope that my updates do as they are intended and bring you a little comfort and perhaps a sense that everything, will be ok xxx . . . . . . #nicu #nicubaby #nicumom #nicumum #nicugraduate #nicumama #pprom #31weeker #31weekpreemie #preemie #preemiebaby #srom #pregnancycomplications #cmpa #firstdayofnursery #workingmum #workingmama #boymum #colic #reflux #refluxbaby #newchapter #blessed #gratitude #love

Oh hi, er me! 👋🏻 . . Thank again to all of you who watch /& listen to us (yes, you can listen on DAB radio). I love the family we are creating & it is growing by the day…🥰 . . . #DewbsAndCo #TVPresenter #NewChallenge #StartUp #RiskTaking #tvanchor
Was SO good seeing friends this weekend. (I can’t believe I need permission from a government to even be in close proximity to my friends!). . . Protecting those most at risk of Covid was essential but the mental health of so many will have been decimated because of all these blanket lockdowns / restrictions. For some, life will probably never be the same again. For many, we have missed out on sharing so many precious moments that will never come again 😔 . . I hope you are all well ❤️
Can’t believe my little boo boo turned 8 months old (6 months corrected) recently. Where does the time go? This happy, curious little baby boy couldn’t be more loved if he tried. . . . . . #preemie #31weeker #nicuwarrior #nicubaby #nicumama #babyboy #myboo #happybaby #blessed #gratitude #truelove #8monthsold
