First time single mum tips

Just me and my 10 month old girly, I don’t have any family support they choice drugs a long time ago… my now ex partner never made the effort with her and I’ve just recently found out he has a 6 year old son he never see’s also haha. I’m not struggling with any of the tasks thankfully she’s such an easy baby.. but I’m wondering how do I go back to the gym? I’m in the UK so child care isn’t available at the gym, I just need an hour to myself maybe twice a week but I’m not sure how I’d do that with a very mobile baby haha Any mommas taken there babies to the gym with them? I don’t have motivation to do home work outs anymore, I’m missing weights and the machines and feeling strong! Also any random tips any single mums got for all sorts of things please feel free to add! Thank you mama’s! 💖💖

Am not a single mum but just saying how incredible you’re doing, and well done for trying to think of yourself for a few hours of a week, you deserve that. Maybe try and find a cheap baby sitter to walk baby round the park maybe a responsible teenager looking for some pocket money xx

My friend take her son to the gym when she go workout, but her son is 6yo. I would say to ask at your local gym if that will be okey if not try to find someone you will feel okey to leave your daughter for that few hours xx you’re really doing amazing job xx good luck 🙌

I take my 12 week old to mum & baby yoga. I know it's not gym but I know there are mum and baby pilates classes out there, which is harder/more active than yoga
