Back in February, just after my book The Blissful baby Expert was officially published I entered it into 3 different categories for the yearly Lovedbyparents Awards 2014

I hoped, I prayed they would see the potential of my book and how much parents all over the world were finding it such a valuable resource-some going so far as to call it their 'baby bible!'

They have over 32,000 followers on Twitter and over 82,000 on facebook and have proved themselves to be an amazing online support for many parents looking for advice on anything to do with parenting.

Each year they hold the Loved by parents Awards where products, retailers, brands and baby and child items can be entered in the hope that they may make the short list and be 'crowned' the loved by parents winner in their category.

Hundreds of products were entered into this years awards from all over the world.

Products were tested by a super panel of parents and then the short list finally announced yesterday..

I am so so proud to announce that of the 3 categories I entered The Blissful Baby Expert book in, it made the short list for 2 of them!!!!

WOW!!! My heart is STILL racing and I STILL have the biggest grin on my face hours later. To say I'm proud is an understatement.

It has been short listed in the following:

'Best Baby Gift under £50'

And

'Best Gift for New Mum/Dad'

I am in a category with some amazing other products so I really really need your votes in order to try and win.

The voting form looks like this

You can choose three products in various categories

If you would like to vote for my book then follow the instructions below:

The category that my book is listed under is 'Creative' -you need to select that from the pull down menu.

The category name that you then need to enter is 'BEST BABY GIFT UNDER £50' on one of your votes and then the below, and 'BEST GIFT FOR NEW MUM/DAD' on your second vote, plus the product name below

The full name of the product is 'The Blissful Baby Expert Book'

What you choose to do with your third vote and who you wish to vote for is entirely up to you.

Loved by parents has such a massive online presence and could give The Blissful Baby Expert the exposure it needs to be able to reach out to so many more mums and dads.

I'm so proud of the help I have already been able to give all of you so far-both with my book and during the emails I reply to from the FREE parenting advice service.

Your feedback and 5* reviews have been amazing and if you could all take just 5 minutes of time to complete the voting form I would be eternally grateful

Having the book win one of these awards would be such an achievement
