Happy Women's Health Week!

Women play a vital role in shaping families, workplaces, and communities. Yet while we care deeply for those around us, our own health and wellbeing often fall to the bottom of the list. Prioritising your physical, mental, and emotional health isn't selfish - it's essential. When women are well, everyone benefits!

Here's some ideas of how you can prioritise yourself this week 👇
🌿Book Your Health Checks: Schedule that overdue GP visit, pap smear, breast check, skin check, or osteo appointment.
🧘‍♀️Prioritise Mental Health: Take 10 - 15 minutes daily to unplug and recharge. Try mindfulness, journaling, or just sitting quietly with a cup of tea.
🥗Nourish Your Body: Try preparing one healthy meal a day this week, or batch cook something nourishing for busy days ahead.
🚶‍♀️Move in a Way That Feels Good: Walk, stretch, dance, or join a class. Whatever brings you joy and helps your body feel strong and energised.
💤Respect Your Rest: Try have some earlier nights and aim for 7 - 9 hours of sleep.

We get it, meeting the newest little human is exciting! But let’s take a moment to reframe our focus 🤱

Yes, you're excited to meet the baby, but let's not forget... a baby is born, so is a mother! New mums need care, support, and space to heal. Not just visitors.

Try reaching out with “Congratulations, Mumma! I’d love to support you - can I bring dinner, do a load of washing, take the kids to the park, or just give you time for a shower?”. The cuddles will come. But first, let’s show up for the mother with practical help and emotional care.

Expecting a baby? Write a list of helpful things people can do when they visit:
🛒 Grab groceries
🍲 Make a meal or snacks
🧺 Do some washing
🧽 Clean something
👧 Take the siblings out
📦 Run errands
💤 Hold the baby (if you want them to!)

The village isn’t just about holding the baby, it’s about lifting the mother 💛

Mastitis is often a painful but common condition during breastfeeding. Early intervention can reduce pain, support milk flow, and prevent recurrent episodes. Gentle, hands-on care can make a big difference. If you suspect mastitis, it's important to seek medical care early. Support and education are key to a safer breastfeeding experience.
