Balancing motherhood with a healthy and happy lifestyle

Marvellous Mondays

#marvmondays, marvellous mondays

Welcome back to another week of #MarvMondays. I’m hoping this week is going to be slightly better, as returning to work is making life a bit manic, especially as Poppy is giving us sleepless nights at the moment.

Last week was another great week with 87 posts linked up and it’s fabulous to see so many faithful bloggers join us every week as well as lots of new faces too. After the previous weeks poor commenting, we were all a bit worried that it might deter some linkers, but thankfully this wasn’t the case.
As we’ve recently made a few changes we’d love to get your feedback so please pop me, Kaye or Emily a comment on our post or tweet us. We’re keen to reduce the number of posts not getting any comments, so would love to hear your suggestions on how we can do this and keep #marvmondays going strong!

Featured Posts

This week’s featured post is from Sarah at MMT who shared a really personal post, Losing Our Baby At 23 Weeks. I loved the honesty of this post and as well as the subject being covered in Corrie recently, didn’t realise the implications of losing a baby at that gestation and how it means no birth or death certificate which must make it all the more heartbreaking. Thank you Sarah for writing and sharing something so close to your heart.

Top Commenters

A huge thank you to Beth from Life as Mum for being our top commenter. Our second highest commenter was Angela from Life. Motherhood and Everything. We really do appreciate the time taken to comment on others’ posts, as linkies are all about sharing posts and connecting with other bloggers.
Sadly we had 18 posts with no comments and this is really disappointing. Please ensure you follow the linky rules and get all comments in by Friday night. This also means that all bloggers need to make sure all comments are approved, and not awaiting approval for us to accurately do our comment checks on a Saturday. Commenting checks are quite time consuming for us, but we are keen to make sure we thank the lovely bloggers who selflessly spend time commenting every week, and also that we make sure that everyone linked is getting at least one comment as a minimum. We will be keeping an eye on people who are repeatedly linking and running and unfortunately if this continues we may start removing posts.

The Guidelines

If you’re joining us for the first time then Marvellous Mondays is a linky where you can share your posts, old and new. Hosted by the lovely Kaye, Emily and I, and joined each week by lots of lovely bloggers like you, we love to read, comment and share all the wonderful posts that you link up. So what are you waiting for? Get linking, sharing some blog love and help us make Mondays, the one day of the week we all love to hate, marvellous!

1. You can link up to two posts per week. Posts can be new or old and on any topic you would like to share and promote, but no linking up linkies please. The linky will open at 6am and close at 11.55pm every Monday.

2. We’d love it if you could make sure you’re following us @HelloArchie_, @MyPetitCanard and @backwithabump_ on Twitter – so that we can keep you up to date with all things Marvellous Mondays related.

3. Add the Marvellous Monday’s badge to the bottom of your post, or sidebar if you prefer. It’s really simple and easy to do, just copy and paste the HTML code from the badge below.

4. In true linky fashion, please share the love and comment on one of the hosts posts the post directly before yours and one other post of your choice. When commenting use the hashtag #MarvMondays so that they know how you have found their post and we can check everyone is commenting fairly. Please do not link and run. It’s not fair to other bloggers that link up and take the time to comment on other posts, and it’s just not good blogging etiquette! Please ensure you have completed your commenting by Friday evening so we can do our commenting checks on Saturday and also ensure you have approved any comments by this time.

5. To be chosen as one of our featured posts, you must have commented on the minimum number of posts and you must have our badge present on your post or in the sidebar of your site.

6. By linking up, you are giving us permission to send you a weekly email reminder for Marvellous Mondays.

Remember to use the hashtag #MarvMondays when sharing your posts on Twitter and include either @MyPetitCanard, @HelloArchie_ or @backwithabump_ so that we can share your Marvellous posts.

Happy linking and as always have a Marvellous Monday!
