Useful habits of a young mother: lifhhaki

With the advent of the child, life changes. No not like this. Let's be frank, at the initial stage it turns into a real chaos. Here the main thing for a young mother is to try to look at all transformations positively. After all, the birth of a child is a unique chance to "reborn" itself.Photo: Getty Images1. Early Rises To be recognized, I did not like them all my life. The perfect morning for me always did not start before 9:00. With the advent of the child, the regime has completely changed. Children wake up very early. My daughter - in the interval from 6:00 to 7:30 in the morning. That is, if before I woke up a nasty crackling alarm clock, now - a real little miracle with disheveled hair and sleepy eyes. And even if the night turned out to be sleepless, the morning still seems kind. Moments when you get up at the same time as a child, will alternate with the moments when you managed to get up a little before it. And in this case the morning seems even more beautiful - just thanks to the opportunity to drink a cup of tea-coffee in peace and quiet. I hope you do not need to explain the advantages of early ascents - it's great from the point of view of human physiology, and from the point of view of the opportunity to do much more things. 2. Helpful breakfast I neglected breakfast in the first months of a child's life. To cook something for yourself was frankly no time. But six months later my daughter began to receive a full portion of good porridge in the morning. And I automatically joined her (to my daughter and to the porridge). Children are a wonderful occasion to acquire a daily morning ritual in the form of breakfast. In addition, cooked with love, care, from the highest quality and healthy ingredients. An excellent start to the day is guaranteed! 3. Walking in the fresh air I used to go out for a walk (it was for a walk, not a trip to a shopping center or a get-together with a girlfriend in a cafe) at best once a week. With a child, this trick will not work: you do not want to want it, but you have to walk every day. Most mothers (and I'm not an exception!) Are not limited to just getting out of the stroller into the yard. Most often, a walk with a child turns into a real quest to find beautiful places for walking. And not necessarily even within the city.Photo: Getty Images4. At some point, personally, I caught myself thinking that domestic, child, family and personal affairs are no longer in my head, and I got a beautiful diary. The most "pumped" moms all matters, outlets, purchases and even menus plan for a week ahead. But personally, it is enough for me to plan nothing more than one day in advance from the evening. It's convenient, it helps to see the big picture of the day, distribute time, follow the plan, and not try to panic to do a thousand things at once. The habit does not bother. Even if you have a clear plan for the day, the child will always make their own adjustments. At first it knocked me out of the rut, saddened and even angry. But I did not manage to take the situation under full control, however hard I tried. I will say more, one day, on the eve of an important meeting with the authorities about my participation in one serious important project, the kid went blind with pneumonia. And I had to go to the hospital urgently. In general, children have the ability to fall ill at the most inopportune moment, get out of the regimes, fend off hands and just badly need the presence of a mother. But there is one thought that needs to be put in the head as a basic one: the child is always in priority. And you will stop to bathe because you are late or did not reach at all, did not finish your work in time, or did not have time to cook dinner before the arrival of your husband. With a child you learn to take any day as it is. 6. Regular hugs There is a theory that in order to feel happy everyday, you need to cuddle at least 5 times a day. In ordinary life, we rarely observe this rule. Moreover, for hugs you always need an excuse. And the appearance of the baby will give you the opportunity to cuddle without a reason and around the clock.7. Gathering for 60 seconds Earlier in order to gather for the same walk, I spent an hour or more. Hairstyle, careful make-up, detailed thinking "bow of the day." When you become a mother, you learn to save time. Yes, unfortunately, you will have to save first of all on yourself. On the hangers in the wardrobe there are either ready-made sets of clothes, or individual items that are well and quickly combined with each other. Stretched eyelashes instead of complex combinations of shadows and mascara. Hair products that hold the styling for several days. In general, every mother, even with the minimum length of time, has her own secrets, how to look chic, spending a maximum of 10 minutes.Photo: GettyImages8.As soon as possible, so immediatelyAnother cool and useful habit that suddenly appears in the arsenal of a young mother. Its essence is to do the task immediately, without thinking, without waiting for the right time. For example, every day, immediately after I get up, I make the bed. Returning home (no matter from a long trip or a short walk), I immediately change clothes and unpack my bags. I wash the dishes immediately after eating. I hang out the laundry immediately after washing. The list can be continued indefinitely. Needless to say, before I always put off such things for a “more suitable time”? With the birth of a child, I realized that such a time may not come at all. See also:
