Five things i've learned from being a mum

 Being a teen mum isn't easy, but it is very rewarding. I have learned so much by being a mum that I thought I would share what I've learned so far with you guys.

Disclamier I dont condomm teen pregnancy

  • 1.) How much you can love someone: I didn't know I could love someone as much as I love my daughter. I am always tired and run off my feet, but even when things are rough, I look at my daughter, and my heart swells with love.

  • 2.) You can never be prepared: No matter how much stuff you buy for baby, How much you pack for trips or to run into town to go shopping, things never go to plan, and you will randomly experience a time where no matter how much you tried to prepare it was all for nothing.

  • 3.) You can't make everyone happy: People will always find something to disapprove on wheater it is you choosing to cloth diaper or what you dressed your child in for the day; I learned to not listen to other people and only care about what my partner and myself find work for our family

  • 4.) How selfish you feel: Everything goes into baby and what she needs that I often feel selfish for handing her off to my partner to be able to shower in peace or for buying myself something small, all because, in my mind, everything has to be about her when in reality I need to care for myself as well.

  • 5.) Everyone is different: In pregnancy, I compared myself to everyone else who was pregnant, and I found myself doing that when she was born too. But no baby or family is the same, and as long as it works for us, that is all that matters.
if you are a parent what is the biggest thing you have learned.

Moving to a new country | with kids

Moving to a new country can be exciting but nerve wracking add in children and it can feel overwhelming to say the least, today I want to share all the advice and tips I have to move overseas after having just made an overseas move for myself with my two young daughters.   Mid January I moved from New Zealand back to Australia, some of you may know that I was actually born in Australia and lived over here until 2011 so for me this was about returning home but for my kids it was moving countries for the first time and while my youngest had no idea what was going on as she was only 3 months old my eldest had a range of emotions and it was honestly quite tough on her at times.   My first bit of advice is to just talk about the move, explain why you’re moving and what to expect in an age-appropriate way so that they can better understand what is going on, talk about all the positives with the move    that would interest them from new experiences to making new friend...

Tips for decluttering

Decluttering can help create a more organized and stress-free living space or even just make it easier when it comes time to move.   With my recent move I spent a few months slowly decluttering and downsizing my belongings to make the final step of selling what wasn’t coming and packing what was easier and I thought I would share some of the tips that helped me as an ADHD solo mum of two declutter my house after holding on and hoarding a lot of belongings from throughout the years.  1. Start small Choose a small area to start, like a drawer or a shelf, to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Work for a set amount of time, such as 15 or 30 minutes, to maintain focus and avoid burnout.  2. Sort items Label four boxes as "Keep," "Donate," "Sell," and "Trash." Sort all the items into these categories as you go, this also keeps things clean when you do decide to stop for the day. Remember to handle each item. 3. Evaluate necessity Ask yourself questions like:  ...
