This is pretty perfect and sums up a lot of the conflict lots of us feel ⚡️💯 #REPOST @motherkind_zoe “Wow. Yesterday’s post really spoke to you. This is what I love about our community so much, we’re all ready for a NEW way. I’ve had this idea perculating for a while now....that there’s an ‘old way’ (often the one we’ve been modelled) and a ‘new way’ - how our generation of mothers are being called upon to be. One thing I know for sure is, we can’t keep going in the old way. We will lose our collective minds (oh yes...that’s already happening 🙈). Here’s my thoughts on the old way and the new way. What do you think? What am I missing? I’d love us to give this new way a name how about ‘Motherhood 2.0’ or is that too cheesy?! #wearethemothers”

Privileged to support the biggest climate protest seen in the UK today. Never been amongst so many positive, passionate people (one hundred thousand just in London). Brilliant to work with people who believe / understand / support @verisstrat 💪🏽🌎🙌🏻🌱 ps I posted it here as someone I know hadn’t heard of the strike so I thought I could do my bit to spread the word 👍🏼 #globalclimatestrike #climatestrike #bethechange
HUGE congrats to Sarah @theunmumsymum for her third book baby The Unmumsy Mum A-Z which is making me snort on the train home👏🏼. Sneaky catch up with @hurrahforgin and a splurge of TMI with @manversusbaby (he is too easy to talk to) and loved meeting lots of people I think I know 😂@brummymummyof2 @iamalisonperry @wallymummy @fiveminutemum @thecraftyfox.uk @this_girl_is_enough @mumsthewordevents! 😝 #theunmumsymumatoz #thirdbookbaby #happypublicationday #theunmumsymum
Yep so I’ll be repping us mums at the @globalclimatestrike tomorrow! The link in the bio has all the info if you’re interested via @verisstrat, including how to search for your local strike. The kids are asking for our help this Friday - can you spread the word / get involved / be the change 🐋🌎🌈 #fridaysforfuture #globalclimatestrike #climatestrike

Reposting @mumologist because it’s so very VERY helpful (she knows😉)⁣ #wegotthis 💪🏽 ⁣ #REPOST For the last of my back to school posts here’s an oldie from last year. I was talking about ambivalence on my Stories today... seems there’s a September theme!⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ ...Oh September is a funny month isn’t it? The seasons are starting to change, transitions are occurring left, right and centre and thoughts turn to new stationary. And up and down the country parents are wondering what has happened to their children. And what has happened to themselves. ⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ I’m hearing a lot of parents say the same sort of things- ‘he’s really excited about school! On a different note, he’s being SO fussy about food all of a sudden!’, ‘she’s a bit nervous but think she’s ok. Oh my god though, all of a sudden she’s crying about EVERYTHING!’⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ But also.... ‘I feel ok about him/her starting nursery/school/secondary school/university but I’m having trouble sleeping/I’m getting really irritated/I’m crying at adverts’⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ So let’s talk about ambivalence. ⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ It’s pretty amazing to know that even pre-schoolers can recognise ambivalence, which essentially means feeling two feelings at the same time. And there’s a lot of ambivalence around in September. We’ve got lots of messages telling us it’s a new season! Yet we’re still missing the old one. We’re meant to be excited about starting new chapters! Yet we are missing the old ones. We’re meant to relish seeing our children growing up! Yet we long for the baby days when most problems could be solved with a bit of milk. ⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ Sometimes just recognising ambivalence is enough to feel ok with sitting with it for a little while. Letting your child - and you - know it’s ok to feel a bit uncertain for a while. We all feel a push and pull when it comes to development- a wish to progress coupled with a fear of loss. And that can lead to tears and tantrums when it all gets too much. If you give you - and your child - a bit of time and space to weather the storm, before you know it you’ll be in the next chapter and looking forward to new adventures. ⁣⁣⁣
Just me, wandering around, on a surprise pass in London 😍. #mumontheloose #forgotthelasttrainhome #wouldbedrunkandmale😬
