Practical tips for working mums... copy from below

http://www.essentialbaby.com.au/life-style/nutrition-and-wellbeing/practical-tips-for-working-mums-20090429-ampn.html#



Essential Baby members and full-time working mothers share their tips on how they juggle  work, children, and getting everyone up and out the door every morning. On time!
Work clothes & getting ready
Bags are packed and put on the 'launch pad' the night before, along with anything else that needs to leave with us (kindy sheets, extra stuff etc).  Our launch pad is just a designated space near the entrance that is only ever to be used for things that need to leave in the morning. Anything not on said launch pad is at risk of being left behind. It just takes some thinking out of the morning when we're rushing to get kids ready!
Don't be afraid to set aside some sanity money each week for a cleaner, take-away, mow the lawns or to get the car washed. Time is worth paying for! 
All showers/baths for myself and children are had at night to save time in the morning -except sometimes in summer!
Nikki
Try to buy a work uniform, even an 'unofficial' one. Buy mix and match colours, items that don't need ironing and can stand the dryer, comfortable shoes that go with most things.  It makes dressing in the morning easier.

Cleaning & household

Try and get the whole family involved when you do your weekly clean (yes that sounds insane). Small things, like getting the kids to pick up their toys or put their dirty clothes in the laundry will help. If you get a nanny, see if she/he can take care of bath time or some simple chores around the house (empty bins, dishwasher) so you have less to do when you come home.
Kate
Use a lunch break each week to pay bills and make phone calls etc. Better still, direct debit all bills to a credit card and pay that once a month.
Kate

Drop offs & Pick Ups

Have a conversation with your partner about what will happen if your children get sick - ie. who will take time off work. My husband and I alternate who stays at home so that it's an equal impact on both our jobs. We also agree on who will be dropping off/picking up and try to share the load so that one parent doesn't get stuck with this all the time.
Due to daycare picks up I had to get used to leaving at 5pm on the dot. My tips is don't feel guilty for leaving work. It'll be there tomorrow.
Fiona

Cooking - lunches & dinners

If you have the time/energy I find doing a cook off on a weekend & freezing meals is helpful. Online shopping is also good & means you don't waste a day on the weekend fighting the supermarket.
Fiona
I freeze sandwiches: peanut butter or vegemite for the kids and cheese and ham for me. My work has a sandwich toaster, so I toast mine and I will pack some tomato to put on just before toasting.
Gina70
I buy lunches in bulk for school. I make sandwiches and freeze them once a fortnight and buy snacks in bulk - I only have to throw them into a cool bag each morning.
Kate
Slow cookers are a miracle for working parents. I put mine on at 5:30am and when I arrive home about 5pm, the house smells lovely and dinner is cooked. I just use that 90 second rice and steam some veggies and dinner is ready.
Gina70

You time!

Don't be afraid to set aside some sanity money each week for a cleaner, take-away, mow the lawns or to get the car washed. Depending on your budget, use some money to free up time. Time is worth paying for!
Try and find time to exercise. Sometimes getting up early and exercising is great, as you are also dressed and ready before the kids wake up. Make sure you have one day a week that is a family day - no groceries/cleaning, just relax.
Kate

Semuanya... Baby ku

Sesudah menjadi ibu selama 4 bulan 1 minggu, sekarang baru terasa penangan naluri ibu. Beberapa ketika dahulu, sekiranya tengok gambar baby menangis, tak terasa sayu. Sekarang, asal tengok gambar baby menangis, teringat babyku..... rasa nak peluk je baby tu bagi jgn nangis. Itulah penangan naluri ibu. Baruku tahu.

New ambition....

It has been more than a month that I posted anything on my blog. So today, I got an inspiration and a new agenda I want to accomplish, that is I want to fill my blog as many as I can. Post my drafts and everything. Of course the time I can do that is after my baby is asleep and all the house chores are finished. So "GAMBA TE" ---- as the Japanese says.

Time Flies and slips away

 Time flies.. as they say it. True. It has been a rough journey, and I thought (and still do think) that motherhood is tough. Yes motherhood is tough, and breastfeeding is tough. Juggling house chores and baby is tough. Listening to baby cries is tough. BUT, when I looked at my baby Iman, and I forget all about all the tough stuffs. There's nothing more calming than looking at a healthy and happy baby. When my baby Iman smiles, or asleep, how I wish the time stops. Because that moment will pass, and it will become only memories for me and my husband. How I wish my baby, will remain that sweet, that cute. Because it is the most beautiful, most calming of the soul. And yet, the time will not stop.
My baby, how I wish you could see how much you mean to me and your daddy. How I wish I could forever protect you. How I wish I could always see you. But time will pass, my baby will grow up. And one day I have to let him grow up and be the man he wants to be. I must learn to let go someday. I pray to the Al-Mighty Creator, that my baby will become a man that He loves, a man that He blesses, a man that will follow His law and His path. And above all I pray I could see you in the hereafter. I love you my son.

Jiwa kacau

Semalam tak dapat tidur nyenyak. Entah, kepala kosong. Tapi sekejap sekejap jenguk buaian, tengok baby Iman jaga tak. Mungkinkah sebab baby Iman tak tido sebelah aku, aku tak dapat tido. Entah... tak pasti. Tapi terasa sangat ingin bawa baby Iman pergi bercuti sehari dua atau seminggu di tempat lain seperti pantai ke... Hmmm  Bilalah dapat pergi bercuti dengan baby Iman (berdua) tinggalkan papa dia di bengkel nye. heheheh

Open mind

I should say we should keep an open mind into the issue of breastfeeding. Although it does become an emotional issue to me, but there are some issue out there where people should consider that sometimes breastfeeding is not an option, because there are people who can't breastfeed. I read some of the stories of devastated mothers who become the victim of breastfeeding propaganda. Breastfeeding is an option, a choice, not a "must do or get judge" thing. Women who choose to breastfeed sometimes they just couldn't breastfeed, maybe because of health, the baby herself, or other issues that we just couldn't understand. But quit pressing people to breastfeed because World Organization say so, or the doctor say so, or the mother in law say so. I, myself opt to breastfeed, and it a struggle. But now I will keep an open mind. That breastfeeding is an option, a choice.  Whoever breastfeed, congratulations, and for those who doesn't congratulations too. Because the baby is the most important issue than all the propaganda.

Breastfeeding and me

It's frustrating and disappointing to have people around you telling you to give up breastfeeding. Because you are already in position of "breastfeed or not to breastfeed".  I've decided to continue breastfeeding my son. Though I'm not exclusively breastfeeding him, but at least I'm breastfeeding.

A new life, a new status

I delivered... a healthy baby boy (Alhamdulillah). A new life came out of me. Now my status changed... MOTHER.  Hmmm how life flow and changes.

Since my boy came into this world, there's so many things I want to do. For him and for me. Seems like there's only my son and me... hehehehe.

Wish could turn back time

I wish can have more, but then thankful is most peaceful. Do you get what I am saying? Actually I wish I am 8 or 9 years younger. But, everything in this world happens in their own time. Because Allah is the Greatest Planner of all. In this life, every living soul on this earth wants more than they have, that includes me. But, you know what... Everything is in the right place. No worry, because Allah has planned the best for me. I must comply and be thankful... Thankful is a bliss... Open my mind, open my heart and accept whatever the future install for me. Alhamdulillah, subhanallah...

I really wanted to clean up the mess in my room and the room next to me. But there just not enough space to keep all the things in there. SIGH~~... in addition to that I'm always feeling hungry and tired. So today's plan to clean up the rooms and go out to get some things from the store were 'sabotaged by my body. Oh my.... Tomorrow I have appointment which will take me whole day. Oh my.. again.

Waktu yang ter-rampas

Sejak hari pertama saya menulis blog ini, saya berniat untuk terus menulis tentang keadaan kehamilan saya sepanjang tempoh ini. Namun, masa kehamilan inilah saya lebih banyak tidur daripada membuka blog, fb ataupun lain-lain aplikasi internet. Ya Allah, penat yang terasa ni, kalo boleh saya nak amik cuti tanpa gaji dari saat ini sehingga saya  bersalin. Namun apakan daya saya, syarat pekerjaan yang celaru membuatkan saya berfikir sebelum memohon cuti. Rindunya menaip di PC. Suatu ketenangan yang jarang dirasai apabila meluahkan perasaan. :)
