Little bowel unblocker breakfast

During the weaning process and even after with an expanding diet,  I found Tayo to get constipated quite frequently. So these are my tried and tested breakfasts to kick start the day.

OATMEAL PRUNE PORRIDE

Oatmeal, Prune Juice, Dried Prunes - put in a pan, bring to the boil, simmer for 3/4 mins. Add more juice if it gets too dry.
Frozen fruits ( I used Strawberries, Raspberries, Cranberrys) Prune Juice, honey - Blend
Fresh Strawberries - chopped and put on top

Weaning

If any of you follow me on Instagram you would of seen I began slowly weaning Tayo around a month ago, when he was 5 months old. The NHS recommend weaning at around 6 months, but I kind of just followed his signals and milk just wasn't seeming to 100% satisfy him anymore. I'm definitely not pretending to be any kind of weaning expert, in fact I'm quite the opposite, however what I can do is tell you is what I've done and what I would do differently. So...

Weekly Meal Planner

Is it just me or does anyone else feel twice as big in the evenings ? Oh my! I swear I grow 2 inches and feel like I've eaten my body weight in food every night. Now, this isn't ideal because its just uncomfortable and the evenings are the time when you want to chill out and well, be comfortable !
So, I've done a little research and apparently eating 6 smalls meals throughout the day combats this, rather than eating a big dinner, because lets face it your appetite grows exponentially. Now, I'm not entirely sure how easy this is for the working mumma-to-be, because surely you only get one lunch break, but heres hoping your boss isn't a complete asshole and understands the circumstances. I've put together a weekly ideal plan for 6 small meals a day that I'm personally going to follow to, so go ahead and do it with me :) This is also good for first trimester mummies, because its said to help with morning sickness too !

Yummy Mummy Brunch

Im forever making plans with friends when they come into town, and now I've stopped working its nice to meet up with them outside the house. Perfect excuse for a good brunch. Friends that hang out over food are always my favourite lol

So naturally I started hunting for a good healthy brunch spot near enough to my flat so I don't have to get on the tube. I came across Farmacy in Nottinghill by pure chance a while back while walking around with my husband but we never went in. So when my super healthy Australian friend came into town and suggested it I was completely down

Breakfast Of Champions

Its no lie that breakfast is the most import meal of the day. So when pregnant this couldn't get anymore real.

Balance is key. I don't follow any special diets nor am I vegetarian or vegan, but I do love nutrient packed meals, and I'm trying to focus on this even more so now that I'm growing a whole human.
This is my favourite breakfast at the moment and this usually follows my early morning cereal and fruit. Yes , that's right. Two breakfasts. My appetite in the morning is peak.
