Mothers are keeping mum about feeling exhausted

Nell McAndrew has launched a campaign to help mums get their energy back. It follows research from more than 1000 mums who say they are pretending they are fine to friends and family when in reality they are suffering in silence from the effects of exhaustion and stress.

75% of the nation’s mothers commonly reply that they are fine when asked how they are, but are really keeping mum because they don’t want to be seen as failures, with 71% privately admitting they’re exhausted with the tolls of everyday life and motherhood.

Worryingly this exhaustion is impacting on safety with one in five mums (20%) confessing they felt unsafe when driving a car tired. A quarter of mums (25%) also admitted feeling most tired during 3-6pm - the time of the school run.
