Hi Everyone,
Long time no see! I took some time off to be IN the moment and experience every second as a new mom. Yes there’s maternity leave but as a content creator that rule is super flexible. Anywho, babies are only tiny for so long and he has reached so many milestones. I am so grateful to be his mother! He truly is the love of my life. Here are a few things I learned as a new mom:
- Phone Calls Are Precious: If I can get one uninterrupted or have the time to call them back it’s a miracle
- Time Moves Quick-The time flashes before your eyes. You don’t even realize it until you take a moment think about it, look at old pictures, or someone tells you how much your baby has changed since they last saw him
- Showers Are A Luxury
- Eat Quick: Eat in shifts sometimes or just eating fast before he needs us
- Multitasking: This is key! Being able to make a bottle, cook dinner, all while tending to baby
- ***Double Your Time To Get Ready: THIS RIGHT HERE! Do not and I mean do not think you can get ready fast with a baby. You both may need to take turns watching him so one of you can get dressed. You may need to pump or feed the baby before you go. Then he poops or spits up then you have to change him. I feed him in something else BEFORE I put the outfit on that I want him to wear out…It’s a whole thing…just give yourself time. Trust me when I say you will need it!
- Your Baby Stole Your Brain: Being forgetful is a thing. I jot things down or do it at the time I think about it or else consider it forgotten LOL.
- Diaper Bag Is The New Purse: Who needs a purse when you are carrying a diaper bag? Im kidding! You man but I don’t. The diaper bag serves both purposes
- Everything Is Painful: Birth, after birth, breastfeeding, and healing up is all a bit painful but completely bearable. I may make a video on this topic
- Learn How To Do Things With One Hand: 9 times out of 10 you will be holding your baby and doing something else as well. Get a baby carrier to help with that
- ****Making Important Decisions On The Fly: Most Important Item On This List! There will be times where you have to make a choice and make it fast. Try to remain calm and think with a leveled head!
