Have a question? Try asking one of our Experts
There never seems to be enough time to do everything you feel you need to do. It is important to prioritize and do what must be done, which includes taking care of yourself. Make a “to do” list for each day, and put the most important things at the top. Be sure to plan time for yourself. The fun and trials of having an infant in your life may cause you to feel tired at times. Swapping babysitting time with friends can be a way to arrange for some important get-away times for you. Be realistic about what you want to get done each day. It’s easy to feel defeated when you think you should accomplish super-human goals. Don’t scrimp on sleep. It is part of taking good care of yourself to get enough sleep so you feel rested and refreshed.
