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...

How I hid my pregnancy

  It is no secret now that I spent most of 2024 pregnant and I managed to hide it for basically my whole pregnancy without anyone finding out minus who I personally decided to tell.  I decided to share my tips on how I hid my pregnancy to help others for whatever reason they decide to not share the big news these can help no matter how long you decide you want to hide it for.  Clothing and appearance I opted for loose, flowing clothing like oversized tops and jumpers and towards the end whenever I had people coming over to my house (I rarely left home other than appointments or shopping anyway) I would wear my oodie.  Behaviour I made sure I had plausible reasons ready for changes in my diet, avoiding alcohol, or even when I was feeling sick with morning sickness (e.g., diet change, medication, or a temporary health issue). Situational adjustments I tried to avoid situations where my body might be closely scrutinized. I also reduced social engagements where people mi...

Typical day in the life as a single mum of 2

Being a single mum of two has really changed my perspective on a lot of things. I had been a single mother with my eldest for years before my 2nd was born and honestly I found that so much easier at times compared to two kids but I wouldn’t change it for the world.   I thought I would jump on here and walk you through a typical day in the life with two kids    on my own, this does vary day by day but I just wanted to do a general day.  I typically wake up before both girls to get myself a coffee and put some of the boiled water to the side to start cooling for my youngest infant gaviscon because she has pretty bad reflux and since the doctor put her on it she has gotten so much better.  By the time I have had my coffee my eldest is awake so I make her breakfast and get her to take off her nappy so she can use the potty through the day. I fill up her water bottle and get started on making up the gaviscon as my youngest is starting to wake up, she has it and a nap...
