👀Eyes here, pregnant mums!

Some mornings, food is the last thing you want, especially if you’re dealing with nausea. But skipping breakfast? Not the solution. ❌❌

Here’s why eating in the morning actually helps:

✔️ Keeps nausea in check – An empty stomach makes it worse 🤢
✔️ Stabilises blood sugar – Avoid the mid-morning crash & cravings 🍞
✔️ Gives you energy – Growing a tiny human is exhausting! ⚡
✔️ Supports baby’s development – Iron, folate & protein start here 🍼

Skipping can actually make nausea, cravings, and energy dips way worse—so even if you can only manage toast or a smoothie, your body (and baby) will thank you!

Need easy, pregnancy-friendly meal ideas?

🚨Don’t waste your money on useless baby gear!

🚨Don’t waste your money on useless baby gear! Here’s what you actually Need!

With so many baby products out there, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.

But truthfully? You don’t need all the fancy gadgets. Here’s what’s actually worth having—and what you can skip.

✅ Must-Haves (You’ll Thank Yourself Later!)

A Good Swaddle – Helps baby sleep longer & feel secure.

Nappy Caddy or Organiser – Keeps essentials within arm’s reach.

White Noise Machine – Mimics the womb & helps baby settle faster.

🚫 Things You Probably Don’t Need

Bottle Sanitiser – Bulky, expensive, and unnecessary. Boiling water for 5 minutes works just as well.

Too Many Newborn Clothes – Babies outgrow them FAST. Focus on 0-3M sizes instead.

Nappy Bin with Special Bags – A regular bin works just as well with the right setup.

Save your time, money, and sanity by sticking to the essentials! Want a full checklist of what to get (and what to skip)? Grab my Hospital Bag Checklist! Comment CHECKLIST and I’ll send it your way.

⚠️The hospital bag checklist you found on Pint

⚠️The hospital bag checklist you found on Pinterest is probably missing some key items you’ll actually need! 😬

Most checklists focus on baby essentials, but what about YOU? Labor is tough, and recovery is no walk in the park. You’ll need comfort, hydration, and a few sanity-saving items to get through it all.

Here’s what you might not have thought of:

✔️ Lip balm & hydrating snacks – hospitals are dry, and labor is exhausting.
✔️ Long charging cable – because the outlets are never where you need them!
✔️ Adult diapers – trust me, they’re a game-changer compared to mesh undies.
✔️ Own pillow & blanket – hospital bedding? Not so comfy.
✔️ Comfy, dark PJs & socks – for warmth, comfort, and easy feeding access.

Ready to pack your hospital bag like a pro? Grab my Getting Ready for Baby Guide for more tips for both baby and you, and everything you’ll need in between.

🤰Craving something crunchy, salty, or sweet during pregnancy? You're not alone!

What if you can satisfy those cravings and nourish your body and baby at the same time?

Win-win! Try these simple swaps 👇

🥜 Roasted Chickpeas or Veggie Chips – Craving something crunchy and salty? Roast chickpeas, zucchini, or sweet potato with olive oil and sea salt for a satisfying bite.

🥒 Feta, Olives & Veggies – Swap chips & dip for feta with cherry tomatoes and cucumber, or olives with hummus and whole grain crackers for healthy fats.

🍦 Greek Yoghurt with Berries – A sweet, high-protein snack! Add frozen berries and a drizzle of honey for extra flavor.

🍫 Dark Chocolate & Nut Butter – Satisfy your sweet tooth with 85% dark chocolate and almond or peanut butter—rich and nutrient-dense.

💦 Sparkling Water with Citrus & Mint – Skip sugary drinks! Try sparkling water with lemon, lime, or orange and fresh mint for a refreshing boost.

Do you feel like your digestion has gone weird aft

Do you feel like your digestion has gone weird after birth? 😕 Nope! That’s not JUST a feeling 👇

One day you’re bloated, the next you’re constipated, and then suddenly… let’s just say things move way too fast 💩

Here’s what’s happening:

🔄 Hormone shifts slow digestion, then suddenly speed it up.
💊 C-section & antibiotics mess with gut bacteria.
🤱 Breastfeeding changes hydration needs, which can lead to irregular digestion.
⚖️ Iron supplements help recovery but can cause constipation.
😴 Lack of sleep & stress disrupt digestion and gut health.

The good news? Small changes really help:

✅ Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.
✅ Eat more fibre & healthy fats (flaxseeds, avocados, leafy greens).
✅ Add probiotics & fermented foods for gut support.
✅ Move gently—walking & stretching help digestion.
✅ Manage stress (as much as possible!).

Oh, and if you’re struggling to hold things in—yep, I mean gas and urine—your pelvic floor is still recovering, and that’s normal too.

Have you heard some of these myths too? 🤣🤣

Have you heard some of these myths too? 🤣🤣

Let’s be real—pregnancy and breastfeeding come with SO MUCH ADVICE, but not all of it is backed by science.

Here are some of the wildest myths I’ve heard:

🍽️ “You should be eating for two!” – Nope, just eating for you with a little extra fuel for baby.

⚡ “Breastfeeding makes the weight fall off instantly.” – Every mum’s experience is different! Some lose weight, others hold onto it.

☕ “You can’t have coffee while breastfeeding.” – Good news, you can have your caffeine fix (within reason!).

🍭 “If you crave sweets, you must be having a girl!” – Pretty sure this one is just for fun… but let me know if it was true for you!

🔥 “Pregnancy heartburn means your baby will have lots of hair!” – No strong evidence here, but I’d love to hear if it matched your experience!
