I love Bailey more then life itself however having a break from being a mum 24/7 is heathy right!? Since having Bailey I class a break as having a hot bubble bath for more then 5 minutes, or having a hot cup of coffee without it being knocked of the side or out of my hand. As lovely as that sounds, this doesn’t happen very often. But you know what these things are not classed as a break, before having Bailey that was just my normal life.

Yes I know people will say “That’s what you get for having a baby” But no I completely disagree. I think it is totally normal to want a break away from being a mum and taking time to myself.

By me doing this it doesn’t mean I love Bailey any less, it means there is a healthy balance between taking time for myself and being a mummy.

Being able to have a hot bath, drinking a hot drink whilst it is actually hot, reading a few chapters of a book, painting my nails, doing my hair. There are just so many things I could do whilst taking a break.

Being able to take time to yourself is a really important, heathy part of parenthood. Please do not feel guilty for wanting a few minutes to yourself.
