As a young mother, you are overwhelmed by life changes that come with a new baby? I vividly remember this difficult time. Before we had our first child, I was the personnel management of a local treatment center. It was an office full of many things, people who filled my day with problem solving skills, adult conversation ? a lot of mental stimulation.
After my daughter was born, and the family and friends were all on the left side, suddenly it was only with thisIncredibly quiet. For the first few days was pretty funny, disturbing no one ? just me and my girlfriend. But then it was overwhelming. My days were filled with the monotony of feeding, changing diapers, naps, more feedings, diaper nap more, nothing less. The intellectual stimulation was lacking, and I started, depressed and not sure how to handle this new world I wanted was much, but had not expected.
This can leave many young mothers feel an errorinadequate, and even depressed. If unresolved, this can not only for ourselves but our children and unhealthy
Survival Tips
1st Recognizing this is a clear change of life
The difference between full-time job and is a full time stay at home mother can be enormous. At work, you have a specific timetable. You know, when it begins and ends. As a mother, you're always on duty. At work, you can use a support person to call them, e-mail and handle other bodies. AsMom, you're the support staff. For some mothers, can only see the difference to be useful.
2nd Get Connected
God has created us into community with others and support each other. Galatians 6:02 tells us, "Carry one another's burdens, and so it fulfills the law of Christ." Check your paper for some local mom groups or communities of women Bible studies. Call to see your local gym if there are classes for young mothers. Exercise is a great way to meetmeeting new people.
3rd Ask for help.
One of the things I noticed as a consultant is the freedom from admitting, that we will fight. Somewhere, we believe that women are asking for any help is a sign of weakness. We begin to isolate and keep to ourselves. King Solomon saw the importance of asking for help: Eccl 4:9-11 "Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their efforts if one falls, his companion can lift him, but pity the person who falls. withoutto lift him up the other. Moreover, if two lie together, they can stay warm, but how can a person keep warm "?
Looking for a couple of other people who walked the path of parenthood, you can admire. Feel free to ask questions. There is wisdom in many. We have all heard the boys do not come with manuals. One more reason to ask other people for advice.
4th Be open to new define for themselves.
And "good if you like you do not believe the same person that you previouslygave birth. Parent changes people. It tends to establish priorities, and brings a sense of relaxation when needed. Those who are parents with a sense of humor seems to enjoy more. The newborn days were a time of growth for us as parents and our daughter.
5th Be flexible
There are many books that the importance of a baby on a schedule stress. I agree that children do best when they have a routine. However, as they grow and develop their routine changes.Flexibility is an essential element for survival.
The transition from work to home, feels like a whirlwind. Be intentional and connectivity to ask for help is helping rebuild stability can be searched. Flexibility and openness in growth can be to translate this be a better parent.
