Any other mums building a business around family life?

Hi ladies! I’m Honeylet👋

I thought I’d finally introduce myself. I’m a mum to a very energetic 2-year-old and I also run my own travel business from home.

I started it around 3 years ago because I wanted something flexible that I could build alongside family life. It’s definitely been a learning curve trying to balance motherhood and business, but I love travel and helping families plan their holidays. ✈️

I’d really love to connect with other women who are building something alongside motherhood or another job.

What does everyone do? I’d love to support some other small businesses in here too. ❤️

Hi 👋 I run my own business! I'm on mat leave now but I run my own little business as a marketing strategist and admin assistant for small business owners. I also have my own travel business on the side and have helped a lot get off their feet and learn how to use social media and thrive!

I’m about to welcome my first baby, so I’m excited to meet other mums who are navigating the wonderful chaos of business and family life!

Looking forward to chatting!

Where abouts are you based?

Hi, i am digital marketing. I boost meta ads, google ads, now i learn about tiktok algorithm. I used to work as design graphic, but now knowing a lot of people can design using AI make me worry and change my role. Are you worry about AI too like me? 😆😅

Menstrual Disc First Time

Just started using the Flex Reusable Menstrual Disc today & when I say GAME CHANGERRR! (My cycle has returned almost 7 months PP)

Went swimming no issues. I’ve dumped it twice so far & cleaned it & had no issues. Was kinda weird trying to remove it but I got the hang of it.

Would I replace the period diapers for this absolutely not, but definitely an amazing addition. I don’t use tampons & my flow was too heavy for the pads I had so I got this & I love it. Never tried the cup but heard many great things about this vs the cup.

So if you’re wondering about buying it, this is your sign to!

Bidet 👀

How many of yall have used one and actually think it’s helpful? My husband spontaneously bought one two weeks ago and he suddenly swears by how much money we will save on toiletries. He loves it ofc and only uses that toilet now. But the water is SO COLD and it can’t not hit my cooch if I’m aiming for the back end ! So uncomfortable and even if I took a cold shower and can tolerate it, it’s painful warming up after. And I still have to dab pretty good after since I can’t just shake the water off… I need an experienced female to guide me through this “amazing” purchase lol

Have you ever pooped your self in public ?

I witnessed this happen a woman at the park yesterday and my heart went out to her . Is this common ? I’ve had a couple close calls 🫠

Please tell me this is normal

Of course I love this beautiful baby inside me. Of course I am SO UNBELIEVABLY excited to meet him/her (we don’t know the gender) but am I the only one who’s 37 weeks pregnant who doesn’t feel this unrelenting undying maternal connection to their baby? So far my baby has been my little buddy - we play tag through my belly, I love when they’re active and knowing that 50% of me and 50% of the person I love most in this world have created life but I still don’t have that connection I keep hearing about. Is something wrong with me?

Maybe I’m a weirdo

I am single 40 year old with two children and I feel I don’t have any friends. I find it hard to make connections and when I do speak with potential female friends, I think I over compensate and talk for England. All I would like is a friend who I can be my true self with.

Who’s back at work?

If you are back, how have you found it and how did you feel before going back?
If you haven’t gone back how are you feeling about returning?
I’m personally dreading being away from my baby. Hopefully we can support eachother on this post 🤍
