Self Care Tips for New Moms

>> May 3, 2022


After having a baby, everything changes. Whether you are a first time parent or just gave birth to your fourth child, welcoming a new baby is one of the most challenging (although rewarding) experiences one can have. For new moms, it can be hard to prioritize self care in the midst of caring for your new child and adapting to the changes in your home and family life. Without taking the time for self care, however, new moms are at risk for more serious symptoms of postpartum depression, and are more likely to  experience burnout which could lead to further mental health related problems.

Despite what you might think, self care does not need to be expensive or time consuming. If you  are a new mom, here are 3 simple ideas for self care that can be done in the midst of even the  most hectic schedule. 



Take a Hot Bath



The best way to gett a little bit of “me time” even in the midst of a hectic schedule is by taking a hot bath. Use a bath bomb, scented bubbl bath, or muscle relaxing epsom salts for a little extra pampering. Light some candles, play your favorite music, and boom - your bathroom is turned into a relaxing spa. 



Focus on Fitness



While you shouldn’t feel pressure to look a certain way after giving birth, working out and creating a physical wellness routine can help alleviate some negative postpartum feelings and boost confidence. Whether you seek treatment from a clinic like ThriveMD or work with a trainer to establish a workout routine at your local gym, focusing on physical wellness after giving birth is a great way to put yourself first.



Get Support from Friends 



When caring for a new baby, you might not find yourself with much spare time to spend with friends or loved ones. Spending quality time with friends can help to alleviate stress and can help you get into a routine of doing things that you enjoyed pre-baby. If you are struggling to find time to socialize, pick one or two nights per week when your partner or another loved one can watch the baby while you go out for coffee or grab dinner with some friends. 



The best self care requires nothing more than taking time to do something for yourself that you really enjoy, even if it’s small. These 3 simple ideas can provide much needed rest and relaxation for new moms.
