New-ish mom

I’m a new-ish mom! I say new-ish because my oldest is 15 years old.

I’m preparing to return to work February 26.

I’m exclusively breastfeeding, and pumping.

My favorite things are to read, workout (when I have time or find it), watch shows and of course snuggle my baby boy!

Look forward to being apart Lemon8!

As a new-ish mom, you may resonate with the challenges of returning to work after maternity leave while managing the joys of motherhood. Exclusive breastfeeding can be a rewarding yet demanding journey, and many moms find ways to cope with the time constraints that come with it. Finding a balance between your hobbies, like reading and working out, is crucial for mental health. According to parenting experts, it's important for new moms to carve out some 'me time' where they can engage in activities that make them happy or relaxed, even if it’s just for a few minutes a day. Additionally, connecting with a supportive community can greatly enhance your experience, providing resources, advice, or just a listening ear. Engaging on platforms like Lemon8 can help you find those connections and discover relatable content that reflects your interests and experiences. Don’t forget, every mom’s journey is unique, and it’s okay to seek help when adjusting to these changes!
