Annastacia says she tries to make her living room a welcoming space for her family but also her roommate and his guests.
She said: “Also a lot of people were saying why don't we just make the living room our bedroom and it's really simple. We have a roommate and sometimes he has his friends over, his mum over.”
“We don't want to just take the living room and make ours because it's supposed to be shared for everybody.”
Without a wardrobe Annastacia has had to get creative with storage, mainly using the space under her son's bunk bed for storage.
She said: “This is underneath my kids bed because we don't have a closet anymore. Our stuff is kind of out just everywhere so whatever possessions we have are in this bedroom.”
Anasatica said she was also criticised for sleeping with her baby instead of letting the baby sleep in a cot.
