Self Care. A term that is being used high and low these days. Everyone and their mother are saying “Self-care! Make sure you get yourself care! You need to make yourself a priority.” I see all these cute little cliché posts on Instagram about self-care with perfectly placed graphics that show a lady with a face mask, or maybe nails getting painted.
But unfortunately, that self-care that people are so genuinely yelling from the roof tops has now become another stressor under a new mom’s skin. When I had kids (not that long ago), I remember everyone giving me advice “Make sure you sleep when baby sleeps.” “Leave the laundry and cleaning, you can get to it later.” And while these are all beautiful nuggets of wisdom, they aren’t always practical.
So, what are some practical ways to get that self-care and self-love that you so desperately need? Listen in for some fantastic ideas!
