New Mom Advice #7 - Feeling Like You Are Losing Your Own Identity.New moms are understandably preoccupied with their newborns and their needs. But over time, they can start to start to forget who they are as a woman.
Fortunately, there are some simple things new moms can do to rediscover who they are: Leave the baby with your spouse and get out of the house - Try to have occasional short trips to the store all by yourself. This will give you a chance to think - and to get refreshed so you'll be able to better take care of your baby when you return home. Give yourself a treat - Buy yourself something small, have your favorite food, go shopping... do something small for yourself. This will help you to reconnect with the inner you. Quiet Time for yourself - Read a book, have some devotional time, get your scrapbook caught up... give yourself short bursts of time when you do something that you enjoy. The best time to do this is when the baby is napping.
