Hey, hello. Let’s catch up, shall we...

Hey blogfam,

It feels nice to be back. So a quick catch up. I had my baby last May, in the middle of a pandemic and it has been, whew.

Really, I cannot find any word to explain it. Firstly, having a baby without my mom, and then having to deal with being new parents with my husband, having to stay indoors almost every time , staying away from family and friends cos of the pandemic and trying to be responsible for the newborn especially and then having to work and school from home. Like I said, no words, really.

I am grateful for sanity and peace of mind through it all, just looking forward to when we can go out and enjoy company of friends and family.

So, I gained some pregnancy weight (like why not) cos I did a lot of comfort eating when my baby was just few weeks old as I was not sleeping through the night. Well, the chocolate biscuit kept my company while I nursed my baby all through the night.

I knew I was gonna pay for it in the near future but I have forgotten how hard Weightloss can be.
well, I have been able to lose 7kg in 2 months(should be more but Christmas and new year happened, so here we are).

I will take you along on this journey so stay tuned.

Before I go, I will like to know how you are especially in this times.

love and light.

Study in a German University

Image
  In 2017, I joined my husband, who moved to Germany for work, 3 months before me. I had experience in Sales and Marketing in a financial institution and so I started the job search almost immediately. I later decided to study for my Masters after getting to know the immense benefit of studying in Germany which I will share with you in this blog post. There are different types of of University in German. The first one is called a normal German universities (Universität in German), the second is called University of Applied Science (Hochschule für angewandte Wissenschaften in German) and the third one is called Academy of Music, Art and film. The main difference is that, Universities are a research driven institution and they focus on theory more than practical whereas the university of Applied Science focus on application of research. So, if you are looking to study courses like engineering and courses that are really hands-on, University of Applied sciences might be what you want. On

Tips to help you be a productive stay at home Mom boss

Hey blog fam. Welcome back. Glad to have you here. So today, I will be sharing how I get productive as a mom schooling and working from home. I am currently studying for my Masters degree in Berlin, Germany. I have a 1 year old son who is super active and always on the move. He is yet to start creche and so he is mostly home all day. My husband on the other hand, works from home due to the pandemic and is mostly in meetings. So due to this, I am left with myself to run around with my son. Having a child is a totally different phase as one has to also combine it with life’s goals and ambition. I decided to find a way around this as the days are turning into weeks and weeks into months. Coming up with a productive schedule was the only way to make sure I got things done. Another reason why I had to come up with a productive schedule is because, before now, my son will take 3 naps during the day and so I had time to go back to lectures I missed and also do other things. However, as he gre

How To Help Your Baby Sleep Through The Night.

Image
If you are a new mom, sleep is one of your major concerns right now and I want you to know that you are not alone. Majority of babies who sleep through the night in the first few weeks are minute and are exceptions compared to the babies who do not which is normal. I will like to share my story to encourage you that sleep is not linear and it gets better. Since birth, my baby never slept through the night. Instead, he wakes up every hour in the first few weeks and then moves every 2 hours. I later learnt that this was due to the fact that he is exclusively breastfeeding and so once it is time to move to another sleep cycle, he needs to breastfeed as that is how he knows how to sleep. I wasn’t getting enough sleep at night and even during the day. I then started looking for solutions because it was really getting to me and almost driving me insane. Also note that due to the pandemic, our parents and family couldn’t visit so it was just my husband and I. My husband works from home and I
