Maternal mental health is unique. Women who become moms go though a life-changing experience, enduring some of their highest-highs and lowest-lows.
You are more than just a mom. You’re a woman with unique needs that deserve to be met. That is why maternal mental health is so important for brand new moms. Becoming a mom doesn’t mean you have to abandon your needs in the process!
You spend all day meeting the needs of everyone else. But mama, you deserve some of the love, too!
Figuring out what that looks like is a whole different story. Don’t worry, I’m here to help! Much of self-care relates to meeting your needs, whatever they are, and learning about setting boundaries, finding your flow, and getting creative in your busy daily routine to fit in some time for yourself.
It is vital to learn healthy and productive ways to take care of yourself, and build your self-awareness to learn about your own strengths and weaknesses to allow you to thrive in your new role as a mom!
