Easy at home exercises for work at home mums


Hello read,

Its a bit of health and lifestyle in this weeks update. We've got exercise, activities to do with the kids, and how to survive a camping trip. :)

School holidays are nearly upon us again and I must say I am feeling that end of term exhaustion this time. Working from home, having a child with covid during the term and just relentless wet weather has made me feeling a bit blah.

If you're feeling a bit the same remember to take time out for yourself, and to have fun. We tend to get a bit bogged down in everything that needs doing and sometimes you just need to enjoy yourself. If you looking for ideas for fun things to do with the kids, then check out our list of 75 activities below.

Stay safe, stay dry. Till next time.

Easy at-home exercises to help work at home mums

Sitting at a desk all day is not good for the waistline. This is especially true if you keep a bag of snacks on your desk. Working from home can lead you to getting less exercise. Even little things like you're not walking from the car to the office can make an impact.

When you work from home, you need to be mindful that you are actively trying to stay active.

I Missed My Child's Birth
 
It's hard when your birth plan goes totally off the rails, and it can take time to recover from the experience. Writer Erin Hug didn't want a Cesarean at all, so she was particularly upset when a gruff doctor informed her they'd have to perform hers under general anesthesia. It made her feel disconnected, and it took time to recover.

"In the movie version of my life, they bring the baby in, and I'm overcome with relief and joy, and I hug the baby, and I whisper to her that I'm her mama. That's not what happened," she writes. "In real life, they wheeled in a baby I didn't know, and she was too tiny, and they asked if I wanted to hold her, and I said yes, but secretly I didn't want to because she was so fragile, and I didn't want to hurt her."

I am not embarrassed to admit that I teared up reading about the moment where everything finally clicked!

Did I Just Pee Myself?
 
"For two years, I have had the constant sensation that I have to pee," writes Angela Hatem. She recounts her journey to actually getting some help, despite people telling her that's just what happens when you have a baby and medical professionals just directing her toward Kegels. "I wasn't fine, and I didn't need a Kegel. A bagel, maybe but not a Kegel. Beyond carbs, what I needed was for someone to listen to me, to hear the words I was saying and not write me off as a Kegel case." Her advice to anybody in the same position is simple: advocate.
