Home Organisation Tips For Busy Parents

When we started having kids, I realised it was much more difficult to keep our home organised with young children running around than it was when there were only two adults in the house. Our normal routines just didn't work well anymore, and the clutter and chaos seemed to be increasing by the day. We had to change how we organised our home by streamlining our belongings, altering our daily routine and developing new habits. In time we learned some quick and efficient ways to keep the key areas in our home clutter-free. I started this blog to share our experiences of transforming our home and pass on our tips for organising your home when you have young children to look after.

4 False Myths about Waterbeds

You may have been wanting to purchase a waterbed for the longest time but the confusing information all over the internet might have given you the wrong impression of waterbeds and their numerous benefits. Here are 4 common myths surrounding waterbed mattresses and explanations aiming to set the facts right.

Waterbeds can burst open anytime

Waterbed mattresses have been ideally manufactured to withstand a lot of pressure. As opposed to air, water has fluidity which means that when pressure is exerted, it can be transmitted throughout the whole mattress therefore reducing the force of tension created. While punctures can occur on the mattress, it is highly unlikely to cause an explosion or outburst of the water being held inside.

Waterbeds are expensive to maintain

A waterbed mattress requires an annual maintenance routine which involves the emptying and refilling of the water and adding a water conditioner to prevent the water from going stale. Other maintenances are more of precautionary measures such as not poking the mattress with sharp objects. In general, a waterbed mattress may only be expensive initially but its care and maintenance are affordable and manageable.

Waterbeds are bad for your back

Most people have said that because it is hard to get in and around waterbeds, the energy and effort required is bad for your back. It is true that getting inside the bed is hard at first because of its wobbliness. But it is the same unsolid nature that makes them great for physical and mental therapy. Waterbeds continue to be used for the treatment of muscles and bone aches all over the world.

Other mattresses can be stiff and hard or thin and unsupportive. In both cases, your bone structure is bound to suffer and you will keep waking up with a stiff neck or a tired feeling. With waterbeds, it is the complete opposite. Not only do you get a daily body massage, you get to sleep like a baby therefore giving you more relaxation and calm.

Waterbeds means that couples will wake each other up

There are many types of waterbeds. From the cheapest poorly made mattresses, to the durable and original waterbed mattresses. If you are looking to invest in a waterbed which you can use with your partner, you have the option of buying a mattress with compartments. This means that the water in each side of the bed has been contained in such a way that no matter how you move, you will not disturb your partner. And these compartments do not mean you will be sleeping separately.
