Freddie Mac goes to school πŸ‘©β€πŸ«πŸ’«

Fred is your classic middle child, with the rollercoaster of emotions that goes with it!

Because he isn't the first to do things yet he isn't the baby, Freddie does often just get on with it....and that is exactly what he did today, wooohooo!

For anyone that has been following along, the transition to school for Jake was extremely hard for all of us. The phrase "you are only as happy as your unhappiest child" is something I often think about during that period. So today my stress was more around Jake and his new class (poor old middle child Fred down the pecking order of my stress again 😜).

However, Jake had a great first day, Freddie smashed it and even Griffy had a super drop off!

Our parenting journey is far from perfect but after the hard times the simple moments are even sweeter. Today was a massive win and I'm all about celebrating this πŸŽ‰

Because you know tomorrow all the kids will be psycho and I will wet myself on a run and the parenting equilibrium will be reset once more 🀣

Final call for any mums wanting to join The Postpartum Class for term one πŸ“£

This class is the perfect mix of exercise, education, good chats and coffee.

It doesn't matter if it's your first baby or fourth, it's the best way to make time for yourself, strengthen your postpartum bod and connect with other like minded mums.

Booking link below. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions ☺️

These things have helped me with my running, and may help you too....

1. Lift weights πŸ‹οΈβ€β™€οΈ

Once or twice a week I do a weights session in the garage. I do around 3x8 reps of each movement with weight that is heavy enough that I can barely lift it by the last rep. To start with I was very sore, but now I am used to it and reaping the benefits.

2. Strides πŸƒπŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Once a week at the end of an easy run I do roughly 4 x 80m "sprints". This helps to dial in my running biomechanics, especially on tired legs.

3. Run less πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ

If I am having a patch of horrific sleep, illness or mentally have too much going on, I reduce or skip the run. Historically I would have just powered through but I have learnt to trust my body on what it needs. Whilst training on empty might have mental health benefits, it has absolutely no physical training benefits.

And if you want help with your running, this is my jam πŸ‘Œ

We come to the end of another summer break.....and it was a goodie πŸ„β€β™€οΈβ›°οΈπŸ¦β›±οΈ

The start of the new year always brings a bit of reflection. 2025 was supposed to be the year of keeping it simple.....but it soon turned into the year of over committing (had my fingers in too many va**nas so to speak 🀣).

So this year I am back to only committing to a few projects that I love - please hold me accountable to this πŸ€ͺ

However, there are a few exciting things already in the pipeline including a bit of a brand refresh and new website.....watch this space πŸ‘€

For now....booking for both clinic and the postpartum class are open online. And I look forward to sharing more with you soon 😊

Wow it has been another massive year for Project Mum 🀯 and 2025 has brought some really cool projects for me.

πŸŽ„The Project Mum Christmas Party '25 πŸŽ„

Being a mum is the hardest job in the world and yet nobody throws you a party or gives you a Christmas bonus.......so this was a celebration for us πŸŽ‰

Rich food, less movement, staying in different accommodation....just some of the reasons we can get a little bunged up over the festive period.

Remember that the best thing you can do to look after your pelvic floor is to NOT be constipated or strain on the toilet.

Some things you can do to help....

πŸ₯¦ Eat foods that you know keep you regular.

πŸ₯€ Keep hydrated, especially if you are having more alcohol.

πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Try to engage in your normal movement regime.

🚽 Don't hold your poo in when you are in unfamiliar toilets....go when you need to go!
