Activities

These are just some things to consider incorporating into your day-to-day life:

• -

  Check in with your feelings emotionally and physically

• -

  Do your best to eat regular meals and drink plenty of water. Consider stocking a feeding station with snacks and water so you can replenish yourself whenever you sit down to feed your baby.

• -

  Get dressed and ready for the day, even if you're staying home

• -

  Try to get a few minutes of fresh air each day, either by walking or just stepping outside

• -

  Hygiene routines (like showering, brushing teeth, etc) can be moments to rest and reset

• -

  Practice journaling, which is also a great way to vent and document these special early days

• -

  Create distinct nighttime and daytime routines to avoid days blending together
