That moms should not get sick is a cardinal rule and something that we always pray for, but, human as we are, we are susceptible to sickness as the next man and would sometimes fell ill, too. But even if we need to take it easy for awhile, at least until we get better, we also need to make sure that our little ones’ needs are taken care of and that the house is running as smoothly as ever. So, in between taking that much needed rest and fixing snacks for the children or coming up with Kitchen Cabinet Ideas for the pending kitchen renovations, why not try the following for a healthier and fitter you:

· Ditch that half-sedentary lifestyle and walk. Walking even just around your neighborhood in the morning will help get rid of the extra pounds you have accumulated in the last year, keeping you fit and healthy

· Drink 8 glasses of water. This might just sound like a very old cliché but drinking enough water a day provides you with all the liquid that you need, keeping your body hydrated all throughout the day

· Eat healthy. Say goodbye to those canned and processed food, instead, eat fresh greens and fruits to give you the right amount of nutrients and minerals that your body needs

· Take a break, even if it is nearly impossible at most times, find the time to do a little something to help you rest and relax.
