With Mother’s Day coming very soon I wanted to take a minute to speak to all the moms out there. Specifically I wanted to talk to the new moms or soon-to-be moms. Having a baby and stepping into the world of motherhood is so stressful and I am sharing 5 tips for new moms that will hopefully help make it a little easier.
{one} Don’t put too much stress on yourself. Being a mom is a BIG job but stressing out about all the little things that are out of your control is not productive. Tackle one thing at a time and don’t overwhelm yourself.
{two} Pamper yourself. Definitely take some time for yourself every day or you will lose your mind. Whether you are a brand new mom or still pregnant doing little things for yourself is so important. For instance, even taking 5 minutes out of your day to put on your stretch mark oil. When I was pregnant with Raegan, and even after I had her, I would rub the Mustela Stretch Marks Care Oil. You can actually purchase Mustela products at Diapers.com!
{three} Have systems. If you don’t have a set routine or systems for certain tedious parts of your day then they can get the best of you.
{four} Use multi-tasking products. Cutting down on the amount of products you are using can save you so much time. The Mustela 2 in 1 Hair and Body Wash is a life saver. I wrote a post about a year ago taking you through the Mustela products I use on her and that one is a favorite for sure.
{five} Use SPF! I know it sounds funny, but baby skin is precious skin. They are so much more sensitive to the damaging rays of the sun because their skin is so new so protect it any time you go outdoors. I really like the Mustela Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Mineral Sunscreen Stick because it is so small and easily thrown into a diaper bag or purse.
Overall, just take it easy. You and your baby will benefit from a cool, calm and collected you.
