However, many studies have shown that working virtually can actually make people feel very alone. Perhaps more so in the last year and a half while the world has dealt with the pandemic. We at Mommy Mundo are no stranger to its challenges, which is why we’ve put together this list for all mompreneurs that might want to better bond with their teams while work from home continues!
5 ways to bond with baby in your womb
Research has shown that around 16 to 18 weeks of pregnancy, babies can begin to hear, and at 26 weeks they can react to the sounds they hear. Also at around 18 weeks, babies can begin to feel when their mother moves around, and at 26 weeks they react when the belly is rubbed. Both of these senses can be used by parents to their advantage as ways to begin bonding with their babies while in the womb.
Financial Mindfulness: Four Tips for New Parents
Can the practice of mindfulness help you build financial security for your family? Yes, because how you do one thing is how you do everything. Your patterns become your habits and your habits become the way you lead your life. Being mindful will help you discover your self-limiting beliefs about money, be self-aware enough to shift and change these beliefs to more powerful ones and create realistic, actionable financial goals that will allow you to preserve your peace of mind.
Preparing your toddler for a sibling
Having another baby is an exciting time for your family. It’s a big change, especially for older siblings, even more so if the older sibling was an only child. Older children, toddlers especially, may become jealous of the attention the new baby will receive. In order to avoid breakdowns and tantrums, parents can use these tips and tricks, but in a nutshell, it comes down to a little extra bonding.

How Quality Time With Kids Means A Healthier You
Research has shown that children who spent a lot of quality time with their parents were less likely to have behavioural issues, try risky or dangerous behaviour, and were more mentally and emotionally stable than counterparts that did not get the same type of time or were often alone. (Jones, 2017).
The child’s benefits of quality time within a family are quite well known, but did you know that parents benefit from this time too?
