My active, busy mommas…. This tip is for YOU especially!
It is no secret that resting after having a baby is key. And immediately after having a baby that is for sure all you’ll be desperate to do. However, once you feel a bit better, you’ll have a lot of urges to clean or cook or tidy or go to the store or literally anything because you are over being cooped up!
But I encourage you to wait.
If you can try to give yourself at least 3 weeks and be cleared by your doctor before proceeding on with getting out and about.
I get it, you feel great, but sweet mama, soon you will be on the go and look back at this opportunity to rest and you will laugh at yourself for not soaking in the slow time.
🌿Grab an adult coloring book
🌿start a puzzle
🌿listen to audio books
🌿ask a good friend to come and keep you company!
But until then, fight the urge mama and embrace these slow days and long nights. Because soon enough you will be on the go for the long haul!
It is proven that mothers who are diligent about rest, recovery and healthy eating habits 40 days post birth experience more balanced hormones, mood, and reduce the likelihood of becoming worn down and depleted 2-4 years postpartum.
So it may feel like you are doing nothing, but really you are ensuring yourself and your family a healthy future, and that is worth everything.
You got this mama!
