Board 6 of 8: Signs That You Are Dehydrated

💧 Are you drinking enough?

When you’re busy looking after a little one, it’s very easy to spend the day making sure everyone else has what they need and forget about yourself!
Staying hydrated is an important part of looking after your body — and there are some simple signs that can indicate you may need more fluid.

Look out for things such as:
💧 Feeling thirsty
💧 Darker yellow urine
💧 Feeling tired
💧 Feeling dizzy or light-headed
💧 A dry mouth or lips
💧 Urinating less often
A simple guide is to look at the colour of your urine — clear, pale yellow is a useful indication that you’re drinking enough.

The Eatwell Guide recommends around 6–8 cups or glasses of fluid a day as a general guide, although you may need more if you’re breastfeeding, physically active, unwell or the weather is hot.
And remember, it doesn’t all have to be plain water. Drinks such as water, lower-fat milk and sugar-free drinks, including tea and coffee, can contribute to your fluid intake. 🥛☕
One really simple habit? Keep a drink nearby when you’re feeding your baby, out with the buggy or exercising. 💜

Board 5 of 8: Protein Made Simple

🥚🐟🥛 Protein — you’ve probably heard people talking about it, but why do we actually need it?
The good news is that it doesn’t need to be complicated!

Protein is an important part of a healthy, balanced diet and helps your body grow and repair. And you don’t need expensive protein shakes or special “high-protein” products to get it. 💪
Everyday foods can provide plenty of protein:
🥚 Eggs
🐟 Fish
🍗 Chicken, turkey & lean meats
🫘 Beans, lentils & pulses
🌱 Tofu
🥜 Nuts & seeds
🥛 Milk, yoghurt & cheese

As with everything we’ve been talking about throughout The Basics, there’s no need to aim for perfection. Think about including a variety of protein foods as part of a healthy, balanced diet.
And if you’re a busy mum trying to get stronger and fitter again, remember that good nutrition and regular movement work together — you don’t need to overcomplicate either of them. 💜

Board 4 of 8: The Eatwell Guide – Made Simple

🥦🍎 Healthy eating doesn’t have to be complicated!
When you’re a busy mum, trying to work out what you should and shouldn’t be eating can sometimes feel overwhelming — especially when you’re also looking after a little one!

This week’s Active Mums – The Basics board is all about keeping things simple. 💜

A healthy, balanced diet is about getting a variety of foods from the different food groups — and you don’t have to get the balance perfect at every single meal. Think about achieving a healthy balance across your day or week.
🥕 Get plenty of fruit & vegetables
🍞 Choose higher-fibre starchy carbohydrates where you can
🥚 Include a variety of protein foods
🥛 Include dairy or suitable alternatives
🫒 Choose unsaturated oils and spreads in small amounts

And remember, healthy eating isn’t about being perfect. It’s about building realistic habits that work for you and your family.
💜 Think variety, not perfection!

Board 3 of 8: How Calories Work

Calories... what actually are they? 🤔
Put simply, a calorie is a measure of energy. Your body needs energy all day long — not just when you’re exercising, but for everything from breathing and keeping your heart beating to moving around and looking after your little one. 💜

As a general guide, the NHS says the average woman needs around 2,000 calories per day to maintain her weight — but this is only an average. Your individual needs can be different depending on things such as your body and how active you are.

So what is a calorie deficit?
It’s actually quite simple. If, over time, your body uses more energy than you take in through food and drink, that’s called a calorie deficit. Your body then uses some of its stored energy(and fat stores), which can result in weight loss.
But after having a baby, please don’t feel that you need to rush to lose weight. Your body is recovering, and the focus should be on nourishing yourself, gradually becoming active again and building sustainable habits — not drastic restriction.
🤱 If you’re breastfeeding, this is particularly important. You don’t need a special diet, but the NHS recommends eating a healthy, balanced and varied diet, drinking plenty of fluids and getting enough rest. If you want to lose weight while breastfeeding, speak to your health visitor, midwife or GP if you’re unsure what’s appropriate for you.

Remember — calories aren’t “good” or “bad”. They’re energy. 💜
