I had no idea that I was going to feel soooooo
exhausted when I brought my first born home. Sure, I guessed
I'd be a little tired but I was in no way ready for that mind numbing
fatigue that most new parents feel.
Since having my second baby, I have learned the fine art of relaxing
and taking time out for myself. Despite being a parent, you
have to remember that you are YOU FIRST! I cannot stress
enough how important it is to look after yourself. Asking
your partner, mother, friend or babysitter to look after your baby for
an hour or so while you have some time out is not in the least
selfish...it is ESSENTIAL! If anyone tries to make you feel
guilty, I suggest you ignore them!
Once a week, try to get a couple of hours for yourself and of course,
offer your partner the same amount of time out.
Great "time outs" are
* Reading a shamelessly romantic novel
* Giving yourself a manicure or pedicure (how can you not
feel sexy with french polished toes?)
* Breakfast in a cafe
* Go to a comedy movie by yourself, laugh out loud and enjoy your own
company!
* Sit quietly and meditate, using creative visualisation.
Meditation is one of the best forms of relaxation you can do.
For a limited time only, if you go to my website at
www.sleepingbabyhappybaby.com and purchase my e-book "Sleeping Baby
Happy Baby" you will also receive three bonus e-books including a
Meditation Guide. Sleeping Baby Happy Baby has helped many
parents with creating a sleep time routine for their babies and their
toddlers, thus helping them to sleep through the night.
Until next time, be YOU first and foremost, then you can be the best
parent you can be!
Congratulate yourself knowing that you are doing well.
