WE see you, moms! You need a full bath and an even fuller glass of wine. We know self care is easier said than done, but taking care of yourself leads to being an even better mom than you already are. It's so easy to burnout without even realizing it. Don't let that be you! Take time today, tomorrow and the next day to take care of yourself!
- SLEEP
Go to bed at a decent and regular hour, at least 7 hours before your child will wake up. If your still nursing stay in bed until you have gotten at least 6 - 8 hours of sleep.
- EAT WELL
Give your body the nourishment it needs. Without a balanced diet rich in nutrients like iron and magnesium, your body may not have the things it needs to power through your toughest days.
- EXERCISE
If you don't use it, you'll lose it - yup we said it! Don't get caught up in a certain pant size. That's not what this is about. This is about being the healthiest version of yourself and the best mom you can be. Start small, start somewhere!
- DON'T COMPARE
Nothing will steal the joy of mom life as fast as comparing it to someone else's. Just be you and trust your instincts.
- DO WHAT YOU LOVE
Your kids are great and you love being with them. But being mom isn't all there is to you. Do the things you love even if it means getting a sitter for a few hours!
- PAMPER YOURSELF
Take a bath, read a book, give yourself a pedicure. You don't have to spend a bunch of money to make yourself feel great. Give yourself some time to feel special at home.
