The Pittsburgh Moms

Thoughts and prayers for everyone affected 😜

Good morning Pittsburgh mamas! I’m looking for a group of moms who are passionate about living in the ‘Burgh and creating community, either digitally or by hosting in person meet ups. If this is something you might be interested in, come meet me TONIGHT in North Park! (No pressure to sign up for anything, just come hang out!)

I’ll be having a meet & greet where (I hope!) to introduce myself to area moms and we can chat about the growth of Pgh Moms! Lite bites provided, cash bar. DM for specific details on the restaurant (ppssst it’s a beautiful location!)

✨ LET’S BE MOM FRIENDS! ✨

Why tho 😵‍💫

How is it August already?! 😭

☀️ Summer is in full swing in Pittsburgh — so get those kids outside! Being outside does more than lift moods (although that’s a huge bonus!) — it’s actually a major player in better sleep. Here’s how:⁣⁣

🌞 Sunlight boosts melatonin naturally.
The sun helps the skin produce melanin, which the body needs to later create melatonin—your sleep hormone. More sunlight = better sleep without supplements.

🕰️ It sets your child’s circadian rhythm.
Our internal clocks (aka circadian rhythms) rely on sunlight to stay on track. Sunlight during the day + darkness at night = a body that knows when it’s time to sleep and wake.

🏃‍♀️ It encourages more movement.
Being outside naturally boosts physical activity. That movement leads to shorter sleep onset (how long it takes to fall asleep) and deeper rest. Win-win!

So as the sun lights up our ’Burgh, soak it up (with sunscreen, of course 😉). It’s one of the simplest ways to help your whole family sleep better at night!💤

Smile! It’s a good day to have a good day! Head up to Pgh Moms stories for a pick-me-up on me 😎

Since the sun is shining, drop some fun things you’re doing today. Help a mom out with new ideas! 👇🏽
