This blog post is the 4th off of a series, know your Author of BlogChatter HalfMarathon. I would like to talk about topics covered on my blog, Momlifeandlifestyle. As this is a mom lifestyle blog, I like to maintain a more realistic which would connect parents to the content.
BlogChatterHalfMarathon posts:
- Blogging it is, and why I choose it.
- Why Momlifeandlifestyle as my domain name.
- How I manage kids and blogging.
Being a mom of two, I sometimes feel carried away by social media posts. Social media can be true sometimes but there is more behind those cute pictures. A whole new scenario with kids so self!!
I wanted to be realistic while writing posts. Since I am into motherhood I tried to see and write things from a mom’s perspective. On Momlifeandlifestyle, most of my posts are on Motherhood Edition talks. Some realistic talks about me-time and how would society see it.
Me-time is something that I talked about a lot on my website. It is still uncommon for most moms to have it. Here in India, kids and household chores are a mom’s job. And many of us let go of our career /passion for our family.
Few tips and tricks to control kids’ tantrums are something I follow a lot. We parents give kids whatever they want, but this can sometimes get over the top. Kids and tantrums are difficult to handle if not controlled.
Quit having Mom Guilt: Mom Guilt is something that all moms would face, sooner or later. As in my previous post I spoke about the Temper Tantrums, even we (moms) would have some kind of outburst when we reach a tipping point. This post has got a lot of appreciation as we all have that mom guilt! Do read the post to know some points that might help you deal with mom’s guilt without having to let go of what you love.
In my next series of Know your Author, I would like to talk about why do I write more about Single Moms/Single Parents. A topic close to my heart!

I like your topic selection. “Me Time’ is something I strongly believe in. Mommy durties are endless. Whether it be India or anywhere else, momy role remains intact. she has to make sure to spare some time for herself. And she should decide how she want to spend that time.
This is great Sadvika that you are taking out some quality time for yourself and sharing your motherhood jourmey with us. I had read your book too and loved the way you have shared your motherhood journey and its differnet aspects with readers. keep rocking dear.
Me time is something where we have to give space for ourselves so glad to know that ur giving time for yourself.. Lovely topic.
No matter how much we crave for me time and not being guilty, we ought to have these feelings. But I always made sure to get my me time right from the beginning and feeling guilty never stops that’s has become part of life but that’s natural the only thing is don’t take yourself so seriously.
Me time in moms is often made to induce guilt. I’m happy that you chose to write about this less talked about topic and brought out the positive side of it.
