How to Handle A Fussy Baby

Fussy Baby

Stress and fatigue are just some of the feelings you experience when you have a fussy baby. If your baby is not the calm and quiet bundle shown in the formula advertisements, there are some techniques that have been used over time to help calm a fussy baby.

Fussy Baby

5 Useful Tips To Handle A Fussy Baby

A fussy baby can wreck a new mom’s sleep and peace!

The first cry of your baby, undoubtedly, is a thrilling experience. But when your baby cries incessantly and without any apparent cause, it becomes frustrating for new parents. Sometimes, you may not fully comprehend the reason behind his crying and you are unable to find the solution to simplify the process. To help you understand we have compiled a few effective “baby-whisperer” tactics in this article for you.

Most Common Reasons For Being A Fussy Baby:

Everything is new to your baby. After the warmth of the womb, the physical world as we live in it may feel strange and cold for him and some babies might take a long time to get adjusted. This is but one of the reasons your baby can be fussy about his sleep or meal times. Here are a few common fussy baby causes:

  1. Gas:

Gas is a common problem with babies, as their primary nutrition is milk. Hence, it is very important after every feed to make your baby burp. If he does not burp, it can cause gas in his stomach making him feel uncomfortable. If you observe your darling suffering from gas, try the following steps:

  • Gently lay your baby over your stretched legs on his stomach and lightly rub his back.
  • Lay him back and move his legs in a bicycle motion.
  • You can also give him some medicinal drops that can relieve his trapped gas (as advised by your pediatrician).
  1. Colic:

Sometimes colic can be the reason for incessant crying. Colic is observed in around one-fifth of babies, usually around 2 weeks to 4 months in age. Colic babies will cry non-stop for three hours or more in a day for several days in a week. If your child is colicky, lay your baby in your arms and cradle him close to you and swing him back and forth. The condition normally settles by itself in about three months. If not, please see a doctor as soon as possible.

  1. By Nature:

Some kids are by nature fidgety and prone to fussiness. If your child belongs to this group, take a deep breath! There is nothing much you can do about it, except be very patient and gentle with them (and on yourself!) and make sure they are comfortable at all times. Do not lose your temper, and make sure you always soothe your fussy baby, in spite of her cranky behavior! Have faith, as this too shall pass. Your kid will soon grow bigger and your temperament will most probably change for the better.

  1. Hunger:

Fussy Baby

There are times when your baby’s little tummy is not full and he is crying out of hunger. This especially happens when you are out for a long time and your baby has got exhausted and maybe feels hungry. So check with him, if you are breastfeeding, offer to breastfeed or formula milk (if he is on formula feed). If you have difficulty following a schedule invest in a “baby diet” journal or notebook and note down his feed times. There are also online applications that you can download on your phone, which can help you track your baby-feed time. Such as this –

  1. Diaper Issues:

You must make it a habit to check your baby’s diaper whenever he is crying continuously. Your baby’s urine, combined with the bacteria in her stools, could lead to a nappy rash, which might be the cause of his fussiness. In general, experts advise a baby’s diaper to be changed every 2-3 hours (even if it is clean). For best results, use cloth diapers during the day, which can be easily changed, washed, and reused.

 

Tips To Handle A Fussy Baby:

  1. Wrap With Love:

You must learn to cuddle and swaddle your baby in such a way that it falsely lulls the infant into thinking that he is now in a cozy womb. Keep his arms inside the wrap to restrict movement and let him feel cozy in the warmth of the blanket or your arms for a few minutes. This will do wonders for your fussy baby. But do make sure you learn to swaddle the right way so that you don’t do any unintentional harm to your child!

Sometimes some babies are more comfortable in their dad’s strong arms as his arms can rock them more quickly and swaddle them more tightly. So, give yourself a break and take your husband’s help in calming down your fussy newborn.

  1. Get Some Sound:

When your little one was in your womb, he was constantly listening to the sounds of your heartbeat. In a typical sleeping environment, babies are made to sleep in a silent room. While it works for many, it may not be ideal for other “sound-loving” babies. If your baby falls in this category, try the following methods

  • Gentle, melodious baby rhymes in low volume during nap time.
  • Whirring fans can be soothing music for some naughty little ones.
  • White noise is like the sounds of waves on a beach or the sound of a gentle rainfall.
  1. Take A Walk:

Fussy Baby

If your baby is fussy and heading to a crying bout, take him out for a walk which can distract him and calm him. Some babies will find walking comfortably as it serves as fodder for their observation skills and helps them enjoy their surroundings. They can even fall to sleep while walking!

A pram will be comfortable in such times, while a baby sling can offer that much-needed body warmth to your fussy infant. A park is the best place to walk by; avoid roads and walking under the hot sun. Make sure you take everything needed for a walk with your baby, including a fully-charged phone.

  1. Baby Massage:

A baby massage is a wonderful way to calm your baby. Massaging will help relieve his body muscles and increase blood circulation in his body. Your baby will enjoy body massages as it helps to sleep calmly. Keep your phone in silent mode before making him sleep and give him a peaceful environment.

If possible, make this a regular practice in your baby’s schedule, as baby massages are supposed to have lasting benefits on a child’s well-being. You can administer the massage yourself, ask an experienced elder or even hire a professional nanny to do it.

  1. Check His Comfort:

Often, a child’s fussiness may be indicative of some discomfort in his body or surroundings. Check his clothes, if they are too tight, that can also be the reason behind his fussiness. Make sure the baby does not wear ill-fitted clothes. In a tropical country like India, loose cotton clothes are always preferable.

Also, make sure your baby is not allergic to any of the clothes covering him. Check for any insects or uneven bumps on the mattress.

Obviously, when your baby is fussy, it will make you frustrated, but remember it’s not easy to be parents! Growing your child comes with big responsibilities, so you must be patient. We also encourage you to talk to the elders and other mothers in your family or friends’ circle, to ease your panic and hope the above-discussed ideas will help you in taking care of issues with your baby’s fussiness. If your baby still continues to be fussy, in spite of all these measures, it is best to consult your pediatrician.

 

Autism In Babies: Signs And How To Manage It

Autism In Babies

Autism In Babies: Signs And How To Manage It

Autism In Babies. Autism is a complex neurological disorder that causes several deviations in an infant’s behavioral traits. While it persists for a lifetime, the disorder can be detected in infancy.

What are the tell-tale signs of autism in babies? What can you do when your child is diagnosed with It? In this article, We are telling you about autism, its causes, signs, and factors that increase the risk of this disease.

What Is Autism?

Autism In Babies

Autism spectrum disorder, or autism as it is known, is a neurological disability that primarily affects an individual’s communication skills, social skills, and overall behavior. The condition is referred to as a spectrum disorder as the symptoms can range from mild to severe.

A person’s inability to socialize and communicate often affects their day-to-day life.

How Common Is Autism Among Infants?

According to the US Center for Disease Control (CDC), the average prevalence of infantile autism in Asia, Europe, and North America together is 1-2%, i.e., one to two infants in 100.

It is nearly five times more likely to occur in boys than girls. The condition can affect infants of any ethnicity, nationality, and socioeconomic group.

What Causes Autism?

The causes of this disease are not known; they could be a combination of factors or a single one, and vary from person to person. However, several decades of research point to the following reasons:

  1. Genetic anomalies: More than 100 genes on various chromosomes can cause ASD by a single mutation. People with this disease have different mutations, and a combination of a few specific mutations may also lead to this disease.
  2. Environmental factors: Some people with genetic autistic mutations may not display/develop autism. However, interactions of genetic mutations with specific environmental factors such as infections or chemicals may result in autism eventually. That said, those with this disease genes may not develop autism even after exposure to detrimental environmental conditions, owing to their unpredictability.
  3. Sporadic causes: Autism can also develop spontaneously if the infant has neurological disorders, an overgrowth of brain tissue, faulty metabolism, and autoimmune diseases. Sometimes, this disease may co-exist with other disorders such as Down’s syndrome and Fragile X syndrome. Faulty genes are often cited to be the prime reason for the development of this disease among infants.

Does Vaccination Cause Autism In Babies?

Autism In Babies

No. Vaccinations or the lack of them cannot make a baby susceptible to autism. In fact, vaccination has nothing to do with autism, which is entirely influenced by other factors.

What Prenatal Factors Increase The Risk Of Autism?

There are over 50 prenatal factors that influence its susceptibility. The following are the most notable ones:

  • Gestational diabetes
  • Bleeding in pregnancy
  • Uterine infections while pregnant
  • Side effects of medication during pregnancy
  • High maternal age at childbirth
  • The child is the firstborn

The above factors do not implicate autism at birth, but merely increase the risk of the condition. The presence of one or more of the above conditions does not necessarily result in autism.

What Are The Signs Of Autism In Babies?

The signs of autism are progressive and vary as per the baby’s age. The early signs of this disease can present themselves even before the baby is a year old. Here are the signs of autism in infants.

Birth to 12 months
  • Do not coo or babble.
  • Do not try to mimic or vocally respond to someone who tries to talk with the baby.
  • Do not make gestures like waving and pointing.

  • Avoids eye contact and may get fussy if someone looks straight into the eyes.
  • Repeatedly sways and stretches hands awkwardly.
  • Do not respond to name, no matter how many times you call out.
  • Plays with toys unusually like always moving a toy car forward and backward and doing nothing beyond.
  • Always displays excessive fussiness and emotional tantrums when offered new foods.
  • They Throw tantrums when something is changed. For example, when you move their toys to a new place.
  • Stays upset for unusually extended durations.
  • Extreme reactions; either too excited or just uninterested.

Some of these signs may even persist through toddlerhood.

12-24 months

Autism In Babies

  • Performs repeated actions, such as turning a rotating chair in one direction, for minutes together.
  • Continuously bangs head backward to the backrest of the chair.
  • Loses language skills, if any were developed.
  • Makes whining, squealing, or growling sounds repeatedly.
  • Shows little interest in interacting with peers and making friends.
  • Continuously repeats a heard word, without understanding its meaning.
  • Shows no interest or enthusiasm in exploring something new.
  • May cry and act fussy in a noisy environment or when encountering bright lights.
  • Reverses the pronouns while talking: might say “you” instead of “I.”
  • Gives random, unrelated answers to questions.
  • Always play with a part of a toy rather than a full toy. Tends to spin the wheel of a toy car instead of moving the entire car ahead.
  • Lines up objects in a straight line or pile them up.
  • Shows awkward compulsive behavior like transferring water from a bottle to a cup and back to a bottle repeatedly.
  • Becomes attached to unusual objects. Like picking up a bunch of keys and clinging clung to them for the rest of the day, or even falling asleep with it in hand.
  • Walks and performs unusual actions, such as walking up and down an incline repeatedly.
  • Do not pretend play.
  • Does not display emotional empathy.

24-36 months

  • Does not speak two-word phrases and simple words like other toddlers.
  • Do not initiate conversation. Also, may not show interest in sustaining a current conversation.
  • Displays unusually good memory of numbers and music, such as a song or a jingle heard on the radio.
  • Would tilt and turn to look at objects unusually.
  • Shows no regard for self-safety. For example, the child walks up to the edge of a roof to see what’s below and not be afraid of falling.
  • Has a low attention span and pays no attention to someone talking, even if that someone is the only person around.
  • Will not respond to name but instantly turns to other sounds such as the doorbell or a phone ring.
  • Often walks unusually, like on tip-toes or some other awkward way.
  • Will avoid or aggressively resist physical contact.
  • Does not display excitement or joy on experiencing something like going to a park or eating ice cream, which would otherwise excite a toddler.
  • May get grumpy often but is difficult to cajole.
  • Sticks to a routine every day. For instance, if he has baby cereal the first thing in the morning, then he will want to do the same every day and will not be open to even the slightest of changes in the routine.

A baby is quite likely to be diagnosed earlier if screened regularly for autism. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends screening an infant for autism at the age of 18 and 24 months. Research suggests that detection of autism at 24 months is the most reliable.

How Is Autism In Babies Diagnosed?

Autism In Babies

The following screening procedures are used for detecting autism in infants:

Examining family health history: If someone in your family had this disease, then the baby has a risk of developing the condition. So the pediatrician will ask you questions to learn if other family members have autism. If the baby’s sibling has this disease, then the chances of him being autistic are about 18%. If the baby’s identical twin is diagnosed with autism, then the chances increase to 95%.

Observed traits: The doctor will check for unusual behavioral traits that indicate autism in the baby.

Screening questionnaire: Parents are handed an autism test questionnaire called Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT). It contains 23 questions covering all aspects of autism such as language delay, behavioral problems, and a general shift in body language.

M-CHAT helps parents express their observations of the child, while it makes determining autism easier for the healthcare provider. Do note that the screening test questions could vary depending on the questionnaire used by the pediatrician.

Experts state that autism screening does not warrant detection. The behavior of a baby and toddler changes over time and an infant diagnosed with it in infancy may eventually turn out to be normal. In other words, the M-CHAT is not 100% accurate.

Do not panic if the baby is diagnosed with this disease, and do not shy away from asking more questions if he is declared normal but still displays unusual traits.

There is no cure for autism. Researchers are trying to find a solution to try and tackle the problem at its early stages. autism among infants and toddlers can be managed with systematic steps that help the parents and children deal with the condition better.

Applied Behavior Analysis or the ABA is a popular behavioral therapy that aims to gradually enforce desirable behavioral and social traits in an autistic person.

It is also called Discrete Trial Therapy or DTT. Such therapies employ a variety of activities to reinforce the desired behavior in the child. ABA is considered to be the most effective of all therapies for autistic individuals. Other therapies recommended include Lovaas Therapy, Augmentative, and Alternative Communication AAC, and Developmental, Individual-Difference, Relationship-Based or the DIR Therapy.

3. Speech, language, and early educational interventions: Infants and toddlers with autism may have difficulty learning, and that could interfere with their chances of having a normal education. A toddler can undergo therapy for fundamental speech skills.

Securing the home and the environment is the best way to prevent accidents. Simple steps include securing the doors, closing electrical outlets, and keeping the toddler within sight while outdoors. The use of GPS devices and identification tags can also be helpful in case the child tends to wander away.

Sometimes the doctor may prescribe medications for autism. These medicines do not treat the condition but subdue the symptoms of collateral disorders such as obsessive-compulsive disorder and depression.

Newborn Baby Tips for First Time Moms

Newborn Baby Tips: Newborn babies are amazing and…exhausting! Here are some baby tips to help new moms survive their first year!

I just had my fourth baby a few months ago. There are so many newborn baby tips that I’ve learned over the years that I wish I knew with my first baby! It would’ve saved me money and some headaches!

Here are the best newborn baby tips I’ve used to help out some of you first-time parents! These newborn baby hacks are life-savers and perfect for new moms to use every day!

These baby tips will help you survive your fourth trimester and beyond!

Newborn Baby Tips #1

Babies are cold so make sure you swaddle them!

Okay, I’m not even joking here.

I’ve had a baby mid-summer when it was super hot and I had a baby in the dead of winter and both were cold!

Think about when you’re in the hospital and they put a hat on your newborn and swaddle them? They do it because your baby is so used to being inside your warm and toasty body for 9 months! Then, the poor babies are thrown out into the cold world!

Of course, they are going to cry! Newborn Baby Tips

Trust me when I say, get a swaddle blanket and swaddle your baby every night for the first few months. They will sleep better and stay warm. Even in the summer months when it’s hot outside, we have AC on the inside, but it’s still cool to their little bodies. A swaddle blanket with velcro is a godsend and quick and easy to put on!

You may be a great swaddle, then, by all means, use a regular baby blanket to swaddle. But, if you’re like me and not so great at the swaddling thing, get a bunch of these already made swaddle blankets!

Baby Tip #2

Get them to bed early!

When I had my first baby, I had no idea this mattered all that much.

And to be honest, when you only have one kid, they tend to go by your schedule.

Once you have two kids, everything changes! You need a routine with 2 children! Even if you only have one child, make sure you focus on a routine so they are happy and sleep well. If they sleep well, then you also get some peace yourself!

Newborn babies sleep a lot but what I noticed once I had my 2nd (same goes for my third and fourth!) is that they all wanted a bath and to be in bed or at least cuddle with me in a dark cozy room by 6:30-7 PM!

Yes, this will seem so crazy early to some new parents but trust me, the earlier you put them down, the happier they will be and the same goes for you!

Mom needs a break too!

If you don’t believe me, yet you have a fussy baby around 6-7 PM, then try it! Put them to bed early and see what happens! It may be the best thing you ever did!

Baby Tip #3

Get a shusher!

Say what?

Newborn Baby Tips

Yes, get a sound machine! Especially if you have other children in the house or it’s not a very quiet house! When it’s bedtime, put on that sound machine and your baby will love it!

A sound machine will remind them of being back in the womb and will calm them and help them fall asleep! It also helps tremendously with colic issues in the beginning!!

 

Newborn Baby Tips #4

Have a routine!

Now, again, if this is your first baby, this new lifestyle may be a big adjustment! However, start a routine and you’ll see how much happier your baby will be!

We always bathed our babies by 6:30 and it was so cute to see them get excited for bath time! They enjoy this time of night and it helps calm them down and ready for bed.

Babies like routines and it helps them prepare for what’s next to come! You’ll see how much happier they are and it will also help you as a parent! Writing down what time your baby naps will help you plan outings so your baby isn’t miserable!

A few things I love to add to my baby’s bath to help them sleep better are Epsom salt and lavender bubble bath. I also love diffusing some sleepy essential oil or lavender oil in their room to help them sleep better.

 

Newborn Baby Tips #5

Get a baby carrier!

I know a lot of moms that don’t like baby carriers or just couldn’t find the right one that fits them comfortably.

Trust me here, if you have a breastfed baby that seems to only be happy when they are close to their mama, then a baby carrier is a must-have item!

Get a baby carrier - Newborn Baby Tips

This tip is especially important for those moms with more than one child!

I was able to go shopping, run errands, and do playdates with my other kids while my baby was happily strapped on me in a baby carrier. Soooo much easier than a car seat or pushing a stroller around! Not to mention, some newborns are just happier held! They just miss their mama and there are times when we have things to get done and we just can’t hold them!

This is where a baby carrier is a lifesaver!

I’ve tried a bunch of baby carriers but the Ergo has been by far my favorite! The best part is, you can use it up to 3 years old if you need to and wear them on your back!

Baby Tip #6

Get a lot of zipper PJs!

Remember how I said newborns don’t like to be cold?

Well, trust me when I tell you NOT to get any outfits with buttons, especially PJs for the first couple of months!

Get a lot of zipper PJs - Newborn Baby Tips

After you bathe your baby and get them ready for bed, most of them wiggle and move around like crazy when you try and get them dressed. Do yourself a favor and only get PJs that have zippers!

It will make life easier for both you and your baby!

Yes, you will probably get a bunch of adorable button-down outfits that will be a pain to put on your baby but look so cute! Save those for special occasions and be sure to stock up on plenty of PJs with zippers! You will use them daily, especially for those winter babies!

Baby Tip #7

Buy a bunch of footed pants

Another tip is to stay away from any newborn socks if you can! Most socks are too big for newborn feet and fall off anyway and become a hassle! Buy a bunch of footed pants - Newborn Baby Tips

Finding adorable outfits with footed pants is a must-have item, especially in the cooler months!

Keeping babies in their footed PJs every day is wonderful but not always an option if you have somewhere to go and want them to look cute. And let’s be honest, putting a newborn in socks and shoes looks adorable but isn’t practical daily. They kick the shoes off and if this is your second or third baby, you know it’s something you don’t have time for!

Baby Tip #8-

Get breastfeeding help early on!

This maybe should be the first tip but not all moms choose to breastfeed their baby. If you do plan on breastfeeding, take this course here while you’re pregnant! This will help you prepare for breastfeeding ahead of time so you know what to expect!

Baby Tip #9 –

Get a co-sleeper or pack-n-play sleeper next to your bed!

Trust me, you’ll want your baby in your room with you the first few months until you are ready to move him or her if you decide not to co-sleep.

Get a co-sleeper or pack-n-play sleeper next to your bed - Newborn Baby Tips

Co-sleeping is not for everyone, however, in the first few months you’ll be waking up a lot with your baby, and having them right next to you will be so much easier than in another room!

Not to mention, if you’re anything like me, you’ll probably sleep better yourself knowing they are ok and can easily check on them when you need to.

If you had a c-section delivery, lifting your baby will be difficult for the first week or two. Having a co-sleeper makes this adjustment much easier! Even if you had a vaginal delivery, co-sleepers are a blessing!

 

Newborn Baby Tips #10-

Buy yourself a small heating pad!

Here I go talking about babies not liking the cold again! It’s so true though!

You may have trouble getting your baby to nap alone after you’ve held them or nursed them to sleep for a while. Newborns love the comfort and warmth of their mothers so once we move them to their crib or bassinet, they sometimes wake up!

Buy yourself a small heating pad- Newborn Baby Tips

This happens often because their bassinet or crib is much colder than being held close to mom or dad!

So, how can you fix his?

Get yourself a small heating pad like this one! Place the heating pad in the bassinet or crib that you want to lay your baby down into sleep. Once you are ready to lay them there, remove the heating pad, and then lay them down.

This helps their nap area feel cozy and warm and they won’t wake up abruptly because it’s such a cold difference from your arms! This trick works so well!

Heating pads work great for so many things and you’ll probably get a ton of use out of it for those pregnancy and postpartum days for yourself anyway!

Baby Tip #11-

If you have a two-story house or condo, put a changing station downstairs!

If you have a larger size home or even a condo with two stories, put a changing station somewhere on the lower level of your home. Trust me, you’ll be changing that baby’s diaper A LOT!

If you don’t have an extra pack-n-play changing pad to change your baby in, even using a portable changing mat is a godsend! It will save you time from running up and down the steps when your baby’s diaper is just wet and you don’t need all the space upstairs.

Baby Tip #12

Treat those poop stains fast!

Those messy blowouts can be tough to get out of your baby’s clothes! I have found over the years the best way to treat these yucky poop stains and save those cute outfits!

If the outfits are white, buy this OxiClean stick and keep it in your diaper changing or laundry area. This gel works wonders on white clothes! It also works great on colors BUT you have to wash it immediately on colors, otherwise, it can fade or bleach out your colored clothes so you need to be careful!

For those colored onesies that you can’t wash immediately, you have two options. You can use this spray and wash by OxiClean which works awesome! You can spray this and wash your clothes up to a week later and it treats it so the stain comes out! This works similar to the gel stick but won’t fade your clothes like the powerful gel stick up there!  Trust me…. I’ve learned from experience here!

Or a third option is to make your own natural laundry treatment spray! I’ve used vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, and dish soap which works great or you can check out Wellness Mama has a great all-natural laundry spray recipe you can check out here!

If I’m out and about, I carry these amazing Wash It Later Emergency Soak Bags! Just throw a few in your car or diaper bag and when your baby has a crazy blowout and you don’t have any laundry stain remover on hand, these bags will soak your clothes in all-natural laundry detergent! All you have to do is add some water and seal it!

That’s it! And you just saved yourself another outfit! You can wash it later when you get home! These make an awesome baby shower gift too!

Newborn Baby Tips #13

Keep an emergency bag in your car at all times!

Always have a few extra diapers, changing mat, nursing cover, one or two extra onesies or outfits, baby Motrin, baby wipes, pacifier, teething rings, bottles, or sippy cups in your car at all times!

You never know when you might be out of something and need it! I even keep a small manual breast pump in my car for emergencies in case I’m traveling somewhere and can’t feed my baby on time.

It’s also a great idea to keep a few extra plastic grocery bags both in your diaper bag and in your car in case your baby has a diaper blow-out! I’ve had this happen one too many times and having a small plastic disposable bag there was a lifesaver for cleaning up the mess!

If you are on the go a lot with your baby, then keeping a nursing pillow in your car along with a nursing cover is also a must-have! If this is your first baby, you may not be in the car as much but I know with my 3rd and 4th baby, I was always nursing them in the car! We were always on the go picking up my other kids from school or sports!

If you’re a busy mom that doesn’t have time to stop, then be sure to keep a nursing pillow in your car with your other baby emergencies! You’ll thank me later!

Baby Tip # 14

Get a diaper subscription from Amazon!

Amazon is a lifesaver for a new mom! I honestly don’t know how I survived without it with my first baby! Get a diaper subscription to save you money and time running out to the store!

Newborn Baby Tips #15-

Colic is real and it will probably happen, so be prepared!

What I will tell you is those witching hours can be tough! I’ve gone through this with all 4 of my babies! Some dealt with it better than others!

Depending on if you breastfeed or bottle-feed your baby can affect your baby’s belly. There are a few things I recommend but without reading my entire colic post, get yourself some gripe water!

Gripe water is your friend! Gripe water is all-natural and helped relieve gas pains quickly! This stuff is great to keep on hand!

Newborn Baby Tips #16-

Ask for help and sleep when you can!

I didn’t do a lot of this and I probably should’ve done both!

I was lucky to have my husband help me this last time around with our fourth baby but I wasn’t so lucky after I had our other 3. He had to return to work the day I came home from the hospital. Life was hard…especially after we brought home our 3rd baby girl.

I didn’t have family close by and it was a lot to deal with but I survived.

Ask for help if people offer it to you. I think the best help someone could’ve given me was to take out my toddlers for a few hours and keep them busy! Or even just coming over and holding my baby so I could jump in the shower!

Some of my best friends brought me dinner this time around and it was truly a blessing to not worry about cooking for our family at that time!
