๐ Iโve been there, I get how hard it is to leave the house sometimes with a newborn when youโre in the constant state of feeling exhausted and overwhelmedโฆ but sometimes, itโs exactly what you need to help you feel a little more human againโฆ getting into a bit of a routine, and each time you do it, you start believing in yourself a little more that youโve got this!
๐ A little fresh air will definitely do you good, so make sure to check out local organised pram walks (if you want a bit of company) - if you can get to any of the ones, these tend to be very popular with our Bloom mums! Book on and youโve got the motivation to push you to get there! Trust me, youโll be thankful you did!
๐ If itโs just a little half an hour youโd like out (maybe you want to get back for feeds, naps etc), why not message a friend to meet you for a coffee and a chatโฆ just a little normalityโฆ
๐ My go to was definitely baby classes - booking a block / term, it gave me the motivation to get out to them (sometimes on time, sometimes a little late), creating a routine around the classes, I got to meet so many other new like-minded (and also exhausted / overwhelmed) mums, I got to learn new activities to help my baby develop and to strengthen the bond between us, and the activities definitely helped me to gain more confidence as a new mum!
