@lauren.digitalsales: I spent so much of my maternity leave trying not to think about going back to work. I just wanted to enjoy those newborn cuddles. The slow mornings. The contact naps. The little moments you know you'll never get back. But no matter how hard I tried... The thought of going back was always there in the background. Every week that passed felt like I was getting closer to something I wasn't ready for. Instead of asking myself if there was another option... I just accepted that was it. That was what every mum had to go through. So I spent the last part of my maternity leave counting down the weeks instead of truly enjoying it. And before I knew it... I was heading back to work, trying to hold it together, knowing I wasn't ready to leave my little girl. When I found out I was pregnant again, I promised myself I wasn't going through that heartbreak again. So I started looking for another option. That's when I found digital products and Canva. Things like planners, checklists, invitations and templates that people can download instantly. I started with ready-made products while I learnt everything and built confidence then started creating my own! I honestly had no idea what I was doing. I didn't even know if it would work for me. But I was willing to try! Fast forward to now... That one decision has allowed me to create extra income from home around my girls, extend my maternity leave AND reduce my hours for when I returned to work 🥹 But more than anything... It gave me something I didn't have the first time around... A choice. Because if there's one thing I've learnt after experiencing two maternity leaves, it's that having another option changes everything. If you're currently planning for maternity leave, or you're on it right now and already dreading the thought of leaving your baby before you're ready... DM me MATLEAVE and I'll share exactly how I got started and how you can too 🫶 And make sure you're following too, so we can message and for more realistic ways to earn from home around mum life x #maternityleaveuk #matleaveoptions #maternityleavefinished #maternityleavehustle #mumsidehustlesuk
