You have probably been so absorbed with your new baby that you’ve forgotten about yourself – and possibly others have too! Your new cute baby is getting all the attention, but what about you?

Your baby demands a lot of energy, so ask for help whenever you need it. And not only baby-related help: you may need attention or someone to talk to. Baby blues is quite common and could turn into postnatal depression, a very serious issue. Mood swings after pregnancy & birth affect to around 80% of new mums, but watch out if you’re feeling specially sad or weepy!
Before being a mum, you probably had another job. It’s completely fine if you want to be a full-time mum, but you may want to keep advancing your career as well. If that’s your case, go for it! Share all baby care with daddy: this may not be possible if you are breastfeeding, but you won’t be doing it forever: once the baby starts eating solids, you can share all baby chores half-half. It’s only fair!
Being a working mum will probably be the only option if you are a single mum. If that’s your case, it is even more important to find a support system. Count on your family & friends and remember that you are not alone: you can share experiences and find other mums in your same situation in Captain Mums’ Community and Forums.
