Baby Blues oh Baby Blues

This first month as a mother was exciting yet tiring and confusing ...
Couldn't have enough rest at day and night ... extremely bored to stay at home for 24 hours a day .... couldn't really understand yet what's the matter with her when she is crying aloud .... having sore nipples and real pain when breastfeeding .... and a lot other problems ....

Everything was so new to me ....
Yet I believe ... all these depressing moments will be away ....

After browsing over the internet, I found out that this syndrome, called baby blues syndrome, is likely to happen to new mothers.... it will usually go away in 2-4 weeks along with the adjustment process of the new role as a mother... yet sometimes it can get worse and somehow will lead to a serious problem.... when this happens, help from professional is absolutely needed.

Here are some tips to get through the baby blues syndrome which worked for me =)
- surf the net ... chat with friends, be online in social networks and get in touch with friends...
- phone your friends... and share stories ....
- spend time to have private dinner with your husband (only both of you) .. if possible in your favorite restaurant / cafe
- ask somebody (husband/other family) to take care of your baby for a while and go for a shopping / body - hair treatment at salon

Don't feel guilty to spend some time for yourself ... because by doing that you'll be refreshed and ready to be a better mom =) =)
