💕It’s Mental Health Awareness Week 💕 I consider one positive that has come out of the lockdown is that mental health is on everyone’s minds. It’s becoming more normal to talk about mental health. It really is okay to not be okay. • I don’t know a single person who isn’t finding life very challenging at the moment. Don’t let anyone fool you. There are plenty swans out there - effortless on the surface but furiously paddling underneath 🦢 • Understanding our own mental health needs is crucial. As parents, especially very new parents, our needs are often pushed to the bottom of the priority list and that is wrong. • ➡️Take a moment to think of 3 different things that you need to help support your own mental wellbeing.... got 3? Now, there are 3 days left of mental health awareness week so that’s 1 a day! 🙂 • My boy has started the conversation for us. Scouts are taking part in a Three For 3 challenge - writing down three things that help their own mental health and then sharing that list with three other people. Maybe you could do the same.... • And remember, my inbox is always open 💕 • #itsokaynottobeokay #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthawarenessweek #maternalmentalhealth #maternalmentalhealthmatters #childrensmentalhealth #childrensmentalhealthmatters #threefor3 #ukscouts #metime #makingtimeforme #mumsofinstagram #mumsofinsta #mumlife #mumlifeuk #newmum #newbaby #maternityleave #maternityleavelife #parenthood #scottishmum #mumofthree #mumofboth #mumdiaries #midlothianlife #midlothianbusiness #midlothianmums #midllthian
Today is World Milk Donation Day! And here’s a throwback picture to a time when I donated litres of milk to the Scottish Milk Bank. • I didn’t think too much about it at the time; I just thought it was a nice thing to do. And because I had a nocturnal baby, I had plenty of time to express during the day whilst watching very high quality documentaries on TV (Real Housewives... was a particular favourite!). These days I know more about the Scottish Milk Bank @scotmilkbank and the real difference having human milk for very poorly babies can make. It makes me feel lovely knowing that I contributed to that. • #worldmilkday #worldmilkdonationday #milkdonation #scottishmilkbank #milkbank #milkbankscotland #humanmilkforhumanbabies #breastfeeding #breastfeedingmum #breastmilkinthefreezer #normalizebreastfeeding #expressingmilk #celebratebreastfeeding #mumssupportingmums #womensupportingwomen #mumofthree #mumofboth #mumchat #mumlife #mumlifeuk #mumdiaries #scottishmum #mumsofinstagram #mumsofinsta #mumsofinstagramuk #midlothianmums #midlothianlife #midlothian
One of the huge advantages of running my own business is that I get to spend more time with my family. Be careful what you wish for eh? 😂 You’ll find me now ‘home schooling’ these three monsters. We have the most amazing adventures and we do brilliant things together - and then there are the less fun moments when there is shouting and tears and I look at the clock wondering how long it is to bedtime. That’s just life as a parent really. • On Friday mornings I’m working on my business - I’m sorting out Plan B with all the parents who had booked courses that didn’t happen; I’m now running amazing (even if I do say so myself!) Baby Club coffee mornings; and The Rainbow Massage course for children is so lovely. My business has been knocked - massively - but we aren’t down and out yet! • #mummyofthree #mumofthree #mumofboth #lockdown #lockdown2020 #lockdownlife #homeschool #homeschooling #mumlife #mumlifeuk #scottishmum #mumsofinstagram #mumsofinsta #mumdiaries #smallbusiness #smallbusinessowner #entrepreneurlife #solopreneurlife #hardworkingmama #jugglingmum #jugglingmumandcareer #midlothianmum #midlothianmums #edinburghmums #newmum #newparent #babyclass #babyclub #mumssupportingmums #womensupportingwomen
Something I hear a lot of these days is mums apologising for saying they are finding life tough - because it’s harder for someone else. Well that may be true but that doesn’t mean it’s not still a difficult time for you. We all face our challenges at the moment and whether you perceive others as being worse (or better) off than you is irrelevant. It’s not a competition. You are allowed to feel however you feel. • I’m finding life hard with 3 children - but it’s harder for someone with 4... • I’m finding life hard because I have to try to home school young children - but it’s harder for someone with a baby... • I’m finding life hard because my business has been affected badly....but it’s harder for those who are still trying to work full time.... • I’m finding life hard. Full Stop. It’s not a competition. • #itsnotacompetition #itsokaynottobeokay #maternalmentalhealth #maternalmentalhealthweek #maternalmentalhealthawareness #itsokaytocry #mumssupportingmums #womensupportingwomen #lockdown #lockdownlife #lockdown2020 #mumlife #mumlifeuk #mumdiaries #scottishmums #mumsofinstagram #homeschoollife #jugglingmum #edinburghmums #midlothianmums #midlothianmum #midlothianlife #midlothianbusiness #midlothian
