Take Care of Yourself After Having a Baby

Created by: Jessie Everts, Ph.D. , Therapist & Mindfulness Teacher

New motherhood is intense. It’s 24/7 trying to figure out how to keep a small creature fed, clean, safe, and happy. Plus there’s another person in your house who needs all of those things, too: you!

You’re doing (at least) double duty right now, and on top of it all, your hormones are wreaking havoc on your mood. Your emotions might be up, down, and sideways, which can feel like yet another thing to manage.

The good news is that every new mom experiences this adjustment, and there are some tried-and-true strategies to help you make the most of your days and give yourself the loving comfort you need—and wholeheartedly deserve—right now.

If you’re feeling like you need additional support for the symptoms you’re experiencing, speak to your doctor and reach out to Postpartum Support International at 1-800-944-4773.
