When was the last time you had “me-time” and how did you spend that time?

Mothers Day! Hubby wasn’t working so he had bub and I treated myself to a face mask and bubble bath! It was heaven and I think I’m due another one😉

What are some of your favourite ways to practice self care?

This is so important to me! Self care is all about maintaining your physical, emotional and mental health. With a baby this is something we have to work at daily as mothers. I always make sure I take time to get out of the house for a walk most days. When Alina naps in the day I take the opportunity to do something for myself. Catching up with a girlfriend over coffee is always a favourite!

What advice would you give to mamas struggling to create “me-time”? How do you make time in your schedule for yourself?

It can certainly be tricky! I love to make good use of nap time as I mentioned above. As my husband runs his own business and does crazy hours I often don’t have the luxury of signing off for an hour or two in the week. What works for me is incorporating my daughter into my ‘me-time’. If I want to have a bath she’ll either join me or sit in her rocker and play with her toys. I enjoy exercising so we go on lots of walks to the park and the local cafe (coffee)! When the hubby is home on the weekends I enjoy being able to sign off for an hour and do what ever my heart desires these days it’s the little things, I hear a nice hot shower calling my name!
