Have you taken time for yourself lately? Believe it or not you deserve a break. I remember when I was sitting around in the NICU last year with my baby and one of the nurses told me, “You have to take care of yourself in order to take care of your baby.” In other words take a break. That phrase has stuck with me since then and it has lifted me up.
There are plenty of ways to take time for yourself. Even if it’s just for five minutes; a break is a break. For me, my break normally comes after I’ve put my baby to bed. I’ve set up recordings on my favorite shows and once she is asleep I plop down on the couch and catch up. Although once I get done watching a show, I have to get up and resume mommy responsibilities such as washing bottles and making milk but that 45 minutes feels so good.
Another way I take a break is to let my hubby take care of our daughter while I go shopping. Sometimes it’s just to Walmart to pick up a couple things but I always find myself in the baby section no matter what store I go to (Go Figure!). Other times Nana or Auntie keeps her so hubby and I get to go out and have alone time.
If you haven’t taken a break, work on taking one. It does a body good and frees your mind.
Your place is valueble for me. Thanks!
