Yep, 11 weeks and have a 13m old. Put on kid workout videos on youtube, or Danny Go on Netflix 🤣 get extra nap times out of them and you get time to tidy up around them a bit (or chill). Dont feel bad about using screens... its temporary and you need to think about you too. It isn't going to hurt for you to use the tools at your disposal for a break

I feel lucky my mom just retired and came to stay with us for a month because my husband has a few week long work trips scheduled and I don’t want to be completely alone with my 2 year old for that long in case anything happens. So no real tips, just if you have anyone that can help, take it

And honestly my only tip would be not to worry!

I know that's easier said than done but extra screen time/snacks/nap isn't going to hurt them if it means you get to rest when needed!

Have a look at age appropriate activities that can be done without needing you other than keeping an eye

And don't worry about the housework!!

Do what you can when you can and get your partner or friends to take over. Don't be afraid to ask for help!

We are humans! And sometimes feel like us mum's forget that xx

Anyone else having a rough pregnancy?

I broke my pelvis at 14 weeks pregnant, developed PGP/SPD since, have gestational diabetes, too much fluid around baby, baby is measuing large and placenta previa. My first pregnancy was super uncomplicated minus developing hypertension at the end and this one I just feel like my body is trying to have every high risk factor out there. I’m super thankful baby is ok, but my body is suffering 😩 I’m 33 weeks and just ready not be pregnant anymore

Second baby after traumatic birth and at 40?

Hello. Asking for some kind and friendly and honest advice. I had my first baby 2 years ago (aged 38), without going into too much detail it wasn’t easy but wasn’t absolutely horrific but enough to scare me to go through it again. With that in mind and now being 40, I’m worried about having a second baby despite really wanting one! I’m also fit and healthy (I think) but not in the best physical shape as I’ve struggled to lose the weight from first time around and worried this is also a risk. Has anyone else experienced this and does anyone have any advice at all?
