MOMMY RAGE. An extreme emotion we can experience from time-to-time! Do you know YOUR triggers?

It can happen to the best of us. When we give so much to those around us and have little left for ourselves, it’s normal to feel depleted, overwhelmed and even filled with rage!

➡️Are you hungry, often skipping meals to take care of others?
➡️Is there an uneven balance with your partner?
➡️Are the piles of toys, laundry and dishes getting to you?
➡️Have you had enough with the whining and crying?
➡️Are you mentally exhausted by the mom comparisons?
➡️Or are you just craving alone time to care for your basic needs?

ALL of the above can contribute to mom rage or the unrestrained anger many women experience during pregnancy, postpartum or beyond.😤It often occurs when we feel alone, unheard or unsupported in motherhood. And we may resort to yelling, exploding or even resenting our loved ones.

And it happens when we don’t prioritize our own BASIC needs like eating, sleeping and just getting a few minutes to ourselves to breathe. 😔 Because we put on everyone’s oxygen mask first and didn’t have time to catch our breath, we broke down.

But the BEST way you can take care of your whole family without burning out is to also make time to take care of yourself…even if it’s just a few minutes at a time ❤️!

💬Do you know your triggers?

*If you are experiencing rage or irritability postpartum, talk to your provider. It can also be a sign of PPD or PPA 🙏🏽

What unsolicited sleep comments have you received as a new mom🤨?? Let's face it: getting a NEWBORN baby to sleep well is NOT as easy sounds. The phrase "sleep like a baby" gets it so wrong...because as moms we know a baby's sleep patterns aren't always so good the first couple weeks of life. Waking frequently for feedings and often needing mama for comfort.

It's even more frustrating when you receive unsolicited comments from other moms, (as well-intentioned as they might be). Because as a sleep-deprived parent the LAST thing you need is someone rubbing it in. (So please don't ever be that person!) And if YOU are struggling to get your newborn to develop healthy sleep habits, it's important to find support early on. To set realistic expectations. To give you some coping strategies. And to just find a way to survive those exhausting nights.

Want to master the basics of newborn sleep? Today is the ✨LAST DAY✨ to save 40% off the Newborn Sleep Course for babies 0-15 weeks. A video course taught by a trusted sleep consultant. Click the link in my bio to get all the info before the special expires!!

When your mental health is suffering and the isolation is taking a toll, what are safe ways to come together?

This is a question many of us are asking, especially as parts of the country start to re-open and restrictions ease. As moms of little ones especially, we know all too well that taking care of ourselves is crucial.

New research has even shown that moms are still susceptible to postpartum depression, even 4 years after birth 😧— a surprising statistic, given that we immediately assume it is only new mothers who are at risk. But the early motherhood years are all trying.

Knowing that the current pandemic is taking a toll on maternal health, how do we start to connect in person with friends and family safely?

I’ve seen this question asked by many, and have asked many providers myself. It's hard to not be able to connect with loved ones in person. Couples are arguing. Families have limited help. Kids are acting out. And everyone is experiencing a whirlwind of emotions.
But it seems no “right” answer exists. Because only YOU know what is best for YOUR family. And it's still unclear, who is truly at risk.

However, the general consensus is: if every safety precaution is being followed, then the risk is generally low.

Meaning if you decide to get together with others be sure to:
_
✅Opt for outdoors over indoor spaces
✅Keep 6 feet or more distance
✅Wear a face mask
✅Don’t get together if sick or possible exposure to sickness over the last 14 days

If those core guidelines are followed, the risk is low.

Again nothing is certain, so if all of this still causes anxiety, then don’t add more stress to your life right now.

Follow your gut, when in doubt. ✨(Source: Postpartum.org)

Are you worried about keeping your baby safe during your check-ups with doctor? You’re not alone. 😔 It’s a big topic that’s come up in the mom community.

Although there’s definitely still a lot to be anxious about right now…rest assured healthcare providers are taking the necessary measures to protect the most vulnerable. Doctor’s have made adjustments to manage patient worries during this pandemic.

Cleaning after each patient, wearing PPE gear, changing between patients, and taking on only essential appointments.
To alleviate your fears further, HERE'S WHAT YOU CAN DO to keep baby safe without giving in to anxiety:
_
✅Ask your doctor to call you in from your car when ready for you so you don't have to spend time waiting in the office -- many providers have started this already. ✅Wear baby into the office. If you’re stressed about contaminating the car seat carrier into and out of appointments, arrive with ample time to transfer baby from carseat into a wrap. Although it's a pain to disturb a sleeping baby, wearing baby allows you to keep them safely covered. ✅Pack hand sanitizer and wipes in your pocket for easy access. Although you might already have it in your diaper bag, you want to make sure it’s readily available if you need to touch a doorknob or surface without reaching around and contaminating your bag. ✅In your diaper bag, be sure to pack an extra blanket and changing pad so you can put under baby in case you need some extra assurance. Don’t forget to eave a little bag for dirty wipes so you avoid cross-contamination.

Lastly, stay calm and confident that your baby is in good hands. The calmness that you emit will help baby feel at ease as well and make for a smoother doctor visit.

You got this, mama ❤️💪

Our internal dialogue matters more than we think...especially as a new mom worried about life with a baby. Do you find yourself in a spiral of negative talk when things get hard?

I struggled with this a lot as a first-time mom. Often feeling like things weren't always fair...dealing with sleepless nights alone, and far from family. But the truth is, even when things aren't always easy, the way we talk to ourselves matters.

Next time you find yourself asking, why me, try to look at it in a different way...because when you do this it's a little easier to see the big picture and light at the end of the tunnel.

Do you catch yourself in this cycle now more than ever? What do you do to break out?

If you really think about it, baby doesn't need that much right now...besides the essentials. They need to feel loved, secure and safe in mommy's arms. And they need that mommy to be happy and healthy for as long as possible. Never forget the essentials, especially in today's world. ❤️

This is postpartum ❤️ and it's Okay. Repost from @mommysbundle
Postpartum can look a little different for each mom. Not only is it a time to bond with and care for your precious newborn baby, but it is also a time to focus on your own health and healing.

What does postpartum look like for you?
