10 Things to do While You are Pregnant
5 Things to do Before Moving House
Collaborative Post¦ Whether buying your first house, upsizing or relocating, moving home is an exciting time in anyone’s life – but it can also be a little stressful too.
Hopefully, you will have found a good real estate agent who will have helped you through the process of finding your new home. If you know what types of questions to ask and what answers to expect (visit https://zen.homezada.com/2021/05/02/home-buyers-what-to-discuss-with-real-estate-agent/ if you don’t), then this shouldn’t have been too demanding. But the next steps involved are often where people struggle to remain calm and composed.
So, to make the process as smooth and seamless as possible, I’ve been chatting to Joy Richards, Sleep Specialist at Happy Beds, who has recently run a survey on this exact subject. Check out the research findings and her top tips of things to do before moving home below:
Food banks need our help over the summer holidays

I was on my way home from the shop yesterday lunchtime when something on the radio caught my attention. They were talking about how it’s going to be a struggle for food banks in Kent over the summer holidays. Sadly, I imagine this will also be the case elsewhere in the UK. I’ve written about child poverty before and how it can have an impact on children’s health. As I’ve said before, I can’t believe that child poverty still exists in our country.
Fantastic Days Out for Families this Summer
Collaborative Post¦ When summer rolls around, many of us end up forking out enormous sums for overseas holidays with the kids. But you needn’t travel far to find a great day out in the UK: there are hundreds of them hidden around the country, many of which can be enjoyed for a pittance.
Let’s run through a few of the leading contenders.
4 Doctors We Should See Once A Year
Collaborative Post¦ You trust your GP with every health complaint, and so far, they have always been able to help you. So, it can seem odd to schedule medical checkups and appointments with other doctors. But the truth is that a general practitioner can only help you so much. As a family doctor, your GP can identify common complaints, from a stomach bug to serious infections. However, your GP also acts as the first point of contact. Indeed, your family doctor can refer you to specialists to help you deal with health issues that are beyond their knowledge. These are the four specialists who should see you at least once a year.

Collaborative Post¦ Everyone is different, and everyone’s experience of labour will be different. Even if you have had a baby before, you may know the telltale signs, but even so, each baby is different too. However, as there are some changes that take place in pre-labour and early labour, then you should hopefully be able to know when it’s time.
Review: Peppa’s Big Red Car
Review¦ I haven’t reviewed any children’s toys for a long while now. However, when the opportunity arose to review Peppa’s Big Red Car, I knew that Autumn would absolutely love it. She adores her toy cars and Peppa Pig, so it’s the perfect crossover. She is also really starting to get into pretend play and I knew that the picnic set that comes with it would add another dimension of play to it.

5 Steps To Mastering The Extended Engagement
Collaborative Post¦ Getting engaged is one of the most special moments in your life and forms a crucial step on the road to committing your lives to one another. Once the initial butterflies and adrenaline die down, it’s time to start thinking about the wedding. For many couples, getting married within one year is the desired outcome. But it doesn’t have to be that way, and a growing number of people are now waiting several years before tying the knot.
There are many reasons for taking this approach in today’s hectic lifestyle. If you do, though, it’s imperative that you do it in the best way possible. Here’s how.
Choosing the Best Used Cars for Families
Collaborative Post¦ When you have children, we all know that our priorities shift. No longer are we the most important things in our own lives, but these precious little people that we’ve brought into the world.
With this comes a lot of sacrifices, things like expensive clothing and that non-essential household item that you convince yourself that you need, but don’t really, are out, and in are more practical purchases like a good vacuum cleaner (you’ll definitely need one).
Another thing that’ll need to change is the car you drive. Gone are the days of two-seaters and cars purchased on how fast they go, or what they look like. Now, you need one that’s spacious, practical, has good mileage and space to fit a pram and a car seat.
However, you don’t want to spend too much, as this would render it impractical. With so many used cars sold in the UK, here are what we’d consider to be the top three used cars for families.
