Mothering and The Menopause

Mothering and The Menopause Supporting and empowering Mums with young children through their menopause journey.

Mothering and The Menopause was founded by Emily, an experienced Health Visitor. Emily had a difficult menopause journey herself, following the birth of her twins. Emily is on a mission to support other Mums who are experiencing the menopause to ensure that no one else has to suffer like she did.

The Mothering and The Menopause girls know how much I’ve been struggling recently. With life, new job, husband went away, normal kid demands and low hormone levels.

One thing I’ve learnt from managing menopause symptoms and young children for the last six years is I have to do things that will help and protect me at these times.

At the moment, it’s strictly no alcohol and doing exercise whenever I can. As we know with young children, sleep is hit and miss, so I wouldn’t say that’s something I can control!

I’m trying my best to keep myself feeling as well as I can, despite not loving life right now.

What are your strategies for coping with life’s stresses and menopause symptoms?

We've been a bit quiet on here recently, mainly because life has really been lifing!

I (Cara), have found myself in a little bit of a rut for a couple of months, but I'm making my way out of it now thankfully! It's so easy to put it all down to POI causing it, but alongside that it's probably been the chaos of December, Christmas, 4 birthdays, being off work over Xmas and getting back into routine (not for the weak hearted 🥴)

I also discovered that my testosterone levels had gone right down to

What nobody tells you about having an early menopause, and raising younger children alongside it 🫠

These things are brought up regularly in our community, and are always, always met with solidarity and understanding

This is a wild little journey, and you don't have to navigate it alone! We've just reduced the cost of membership to only £5 a month with access to a huge catalogue of resources, but most importantly other women walking the same path 🩷

You can now join us for an even lower cost.

Changes to my NHS role has meant that I have less time and headspace to dedicate to our lovely group. The members will be supporting me in running the group (some already have been- very grateful!).

We discussed moving to a free Facebook group but we have hours and hours of resources in an easily accessible app which is super easy to use so we decided to keep a low fee instead to cover costs.

You can get so much support in your motherhood and menopause journey when you join us, including all of the previous support, any future speakers or sleep clinics, meet ups and we are currently planning our weekend away!

Find your people and it helps so much 🤗

8 ways our Mothering and the menopause members told us they *try* to keep calm around Christmas

It can be such an overwhelming time for everyone, and managing small excited children through Xmas and alongside menopause symptoms is a lot!

Don't lose yourself in making the magic ✨️

How do you feel about Christmas? Loving the magic, or overwhelmed and burnt out?

How can we protect our peace amongst the chaos? This makes me almost sound like I've got it all figured out, but it definitely hasn't always been this way!

It can be so difficult finding any sort of peace navigating menopause alongside young children- sometimes it feels impossible. I usually find that small, and consistent changes are the easiest ones to keep with the biggest impact.

Where do you find peace amidst the chaos?

Are you experiencing menopause symptoms and raising young children?

Do you feel like there are no support options suitable for you?

We’ve got the perfect place!

Our Online Community supporting women experiencing menopause symptoms with pre teen children has been active for 1.5 years! I’m so proud of how lovely and supportive this space is!

I’ve created this so that no one has to feel how I did.
I always wanted someone to talk to, who could understand how I felt as a Mum of young children experiencing this. I felt lonely and different to my other “Mum” friends and didn’t feel I could go to “normal” menopause support groups.

The rage, the overwhelm, the exhaustion, to name a few, are all amplified when you’re in the middle of toddler tantrums, big emotions starting school or sleepless nights. Most of the normal menopause advice can feel unsustainable or unrealistic when you have little ones.

If you have young children and you’re experiencing menopause, no matter which kind, with or without an official “diagnosis”, and would like:
🤗 SUPPORT
🤍a COMMUNITY who understand
👌 EXPERT speakers
🤗 Virtual and in person MEET UPS
📝 RESOURCES
💰 DISCOUNTS with various small businesses
🧘 YOGA
🏋️‍♀️WEIGHTED WORKOUTS that are pelvic floor friendly
☀️ Summer Holiday chat support
Then join us!

It is via Mighty Networks app and away from social media. You can join anonymously if you wish.

*WE ARE CLOSING ON FRIDAY TO NEW MEMBERS for at least 2 months. I cannot keep up with the advertising side and need a little break with my own children. Nothing will change for existing members.
