vegan pregnancy weight loss | A Phone Amnesty

vegan pregnancy weight loss


A year ago I wouldnt have classed myself as a particular checker of the phone.  I could quite happily leave my phone under the bed all day and then retrieve it hours later to several texts and missed calls. Sometimes it would probably be easier for people to contact me via pigeon rather than my phone. I had hardly any apps and I only checked my emails when I could be bothered to turn on my laptop. 

How times have changed.  That little phone now contains my life. My email, Twitter, Instagram, Whats App, The OK! app (I so love this app). My phone constantly buzzes and vibrates to inform me of likes, whats trending, messages, Whats app messages, voucher codes, shopping deals, breaking news...you get the picture.  You dont look at the buzz and you feel you are missing something.  Look at the buzz and you dont even realise youre doing it. 

This blog post isnt anti-phones.  It just that I do catch myself looking on that little iPhone a bit too much for my liking. I caught myself checking out Kim Ks outfit whilst Baba was eating her lunch the other day.  I mean how bad a mum am I? Annabel Karmel would have a fit.  Would I like it if Baba read a newspaper at the table instead of talking to me? Erm, nope.  So I should show her the same courtesy and manners back.  

Other times Im looking at someone twirling around in their Prada shoes whilst I am on the floor cleaning up Weetabix from my carpet (I am sure Baba stashes it up her pyjama legs then drops it on the floor in little mounds in the style of the Great Escape).  But, surely I can wait a bit longer before giving their pic a thumbs up.

So I have made the decision to try and live in the woods and resort to message by carrier pigeon.  Only joking.  But I am going to try to make a conscious effort to reduce the amount of time I take a peek at my phone. I might even leave it under the bed for a morning.  Im not that important so Im sure without my online input the world will continue to turn.

But in all seriousness, I see my daughter watching me, and I wonder what she thinks as Im on my phone.  As she gets older I dont want her permanently stuck to a mobile or laptop. I will keep you posted as to how my attempted phone amnesty goes, and if nothing else, I think it will make me think twice before scrolling through and clicking away. Yes, technology is wonderful and pretty amazing.  But its all about having that balance.  And alot of the time the most amazing stuff is happening on our side of that little screen, we just need to be present in the moment to see it. 

What do you think? I am panicking over nothing? Do you use your phone alot? Fancy joining my amnesty? Comments below please! And if you need me urgently between the hours of 12 and 4 then feel free to make the sound of a cuckoo and I will try and respond to your call!  

Thanks for reading,
